    "It's better to be honest than impressive." What a fabulous insight. I wrote this down in my journal of quotes I keep. There's a Matt moment in almost every video, where you give a humble and subtle observation that most would miss. I really think that's the best part of your work. Thanks for sharing it with us.

    I found myself wanting more at the end! I don't really know how you felt about any of it: how much you enjoyed doing the program, whether it had an impact in how you felt overall, how you'd compare it to other similar interventions you've done in the past (walking 10k steps, yoga).

    • @xylasoulyoga
      @xylasoulyoga Год назад +1

      It' the same thing. Except when it comes to yoga you are usually engaging your body, mind and your soul or spirit with it, to connect with a higher power. But there are over 800,000 yoga poses, so most things you do to stretch could be considered a yoga pose.

    Yes!!! The difference in what I can do at CrossFit/weightlifting five years ago when I started (I squatted by sitting on a box and standing up) to today (overhead squats with a 100+ lbs barbell) is absolutely due to daily mobility training!!

    Bodyweight Warrior/Tom Merrick has loads of free follow-alongs. After doing one of those every day for a month, I felt noticeably...better overall. It's hard to describe, but in general less achy/tight. I went from being unable to touch my toes/squat to being able to much quicker than I thought possible.
    I'm unsure how much of the "feeling better overall" improvement is genuine and how much is placebo. But, for my n of 1 and the truly minimal investment of my time required (15-20 minutes/day) I'd say it was well worth incorporating into my daily life.

    This video was so relevant to me. I never thought about my mobility until last year when all of a sudden, lower back pain hit FAST and HARD and I could barely move at all for months. I know it's not exactly the same, but I learned it was due to weakness in my back muscles that significantly reduced my mobility. I couldn't do normal things like even lift up my legs high enough to climb stairs. I'm a bit better now but I need to i corporate more time in my day to do exercises like you did to continue improving.

    I am sorry some people are being unnecessarily harsh with you in this video Mattt.

A second-part for this basically. Keep it up, Matt, and ignore the hate!

  • @PirateVerse
    @PirateVerse 5 месяцев назад

    Mobility training:
    CAR - Controlled Articular Rotation.
    Pushes full range of motion.
    Blood flow, flexibility.
    Static vs dynamic.
    Exercise should create tension and isolate each movement with other parts.
    It's better to be honest than impressive.
