Pull - Up Bar
The goal of these exercises is to change your habits and improve your performance, whether that be on a field or in everyday function. Our focus is on 4 main categories.
1: Breathing
How well you can breath through an exercise and create a relaxed state while achieving the movement
2: Core Ability
Our core is the main mover of our body. The more confident we can become in utilizing our core in everyday movements, the easier and more efficient we can move.
3: Feet Alignment and Ability to Utilize Your Base
Our feet are so important when it comes to balance and force generation. The more control we have over them, the easier and stronger we can move.
4: Knee and Hip Alignment and Function
Where our knees stack and hips are aligned is important when it comes to total muscle recruitment. We need to create a symmetrical and functional body in order to prevent injury and perform at our highest level.
Our goal at The Mobility Pod is to improve the way we move by increasing our ability in these categories through complex movements. These exercises may seem hard at the time, but the more we work on being uncomfortable the higher our overall ability will become.
