Your Overhead Mobility Is the Roadblock

I was going with The Lifting Fix. We're here to talk about some mobility things, all right? I'm actually sitting down. I'm going to be a demo boy and an explanator.

Explanator, that's definitely a term. All right, so what is for upper back? You talk about jerks or anything overhead, even snatches. And sometimes you have a problem getting that good overhead position which is kind of just behind your ears.

Maybe your arm-- kind of soft enough position because you're out front you're really struggling to get it back. This is a great drill to do. It'll kind of work on that. So if you're a foam roller, the foam roller is going to go in your back, alright just cross, and with the bar, you start wider, it's a little easier and you can work on getting more narrow.

So with your hands on the bar, your jerks set up, that's kind of your problem or wherever you go. wherever you need the help and then you can just kind of find where you're tight. You can go down towards your low back a little more and sink your hips. You can also roll up towards your shoulders more if you're shoulder issue even all the way up on your traps a little bit.

So you just kind of roll through here and find where you need it where you're tight and then just let your hips sink down. [BLANK_AUDIO] takes a deep breath and feel yourself kind of release, release right where you need it. Alright, roll back for a few times. Don't get crazy with it.

You know, it's kind of obviously your safety find where you need it most. Alright, and that'll help you to get in that good overhead position. Open up that upper back. There you go.

Be more mobile. One more way.
