Read MoreQuad Stretch with Coach LeighAnn
We’re always working toward building up our mobility, whether in our ankles, hips, etc. These are all important to focus on, but sometimes we find we have some tightness in muscles that we haven’t talked about as much, and you may not know what the best way to get after those muscles is. One muscle…
Read MoreSquat Tip: Chest Up
There are a lot of pieces to our squat and a ton of ways to improve our squat form, as well as depth and strength. One common mistake we tend to make is allowing the chest to fall too far forward. We need the chest to come forward a little to be in a good…
