The Segmental Cat-Cow exercise is a slight, but very useful variation on the traditional exercise. We utilize the segmental approach to address each joint in the spine.

The idea is to focus on proper movement through each joint of the spine to allow for a more complete movement and ensure that each segment is moving adequately to limit compensation at other areas and to promote spinal health.

Great as a warm-up and a cool-down sequence. A go-to movement for me and should be one that you utilize as well.

Stiffness and tightness in the mid back (Thoracic spine) is a common issue due to the positions of Jiu-Jitsu as well as every day life that includes extensive sitting among other activities that forces our spine to round.

This can lead to a rounded posture, decreased mobility, and general stiffness in the mid back which can impact neck, shoulder, and low back function.

In this quick series, I show you exercises that I focused on after I experienced tightness in the mid back after BJJ class.

Rib injuries are one of the toughest and most difficult injuries to recover from.

The ribs are effected by and also impact so many other areas of the body and the lack of mobility and strength in this area can really limit performance and can lead to future injuries.

In this video, I take you through one of my favorite and in my opinion an extremely beneficial and effective exercise sequence to help with improving movement and strength.

This is a solid technique for a warm-up exercise or a rehab technique.

2-3 sets of 10 repetitions

In this video I show a useful combined movement that incorporates the shoulders, mid and low back, and inner thigh areas to actively warm up prior to activity such as Jiu-Jitsu.

The “Prayer Stretch” position in a wide knee position will address the shoulders, mid-low back, and inner hips.

Followed by a reach through with focuses on the back of the shoulder (posterior capsule stretch) and a mid to low back (thoracic and lumbar spine) rotation stretch.

The gentle overpressure with the other hand provides a more significant stretch. This is a useful and effective technique that I have used to warm up and get my body ready for activity.
