Mobility

If you hear me squealing tomorrow hanging over a barbell, it’s because I’m trying to free up my sub-scap. If I were someone about to do a bunch of Clean and Jerks.. I may want to do the same… (TAKE THE HINT). You’ll find the overhead jerk position much more comfortable to get into and maybe not have to do any burpees cause you don’t miss clean and jerks cause of bad mobility! 

Strength

This one’s for the laaaadies. 70′s Big hits us with some advice on how to reconcile the fact that we want to wear high heels, dresses and do lady-like things, like crossing our legs when sitting, with the other fact that we want to lift more than the dudes in the gym do (don’t lie, we all think about it). Bottom line: you don’t have to pick one or the other, but if you want to be able to do both, you are going to need some extra mobility devoted to undoing what your lady behaviors have done. Ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-check it out.

Recipe

If you are ever craving chinese food, try this recipe instead of going out to grab it at that place where you can’t see it being prepared. It’s from Jan’s Sushi Bar, looks DELICIOUS and would definitely cure my craving! Serve it with some cauliflower rice and call it a meal. YUMMMM.
