For Chris; RIFGA post

Chris

here is the basic routine I am doing lately, from a Jan post. It is pretty much the same.

Thanks Rif - very helpful.

I do appreciate that this is a routine specific to your own problems, but that - combined with your comment on the last post - is helpful in itself, to see how you address those problems. Hopefully I can learn from that.

Cheers

Chris

chris,

my key focus is to make sure I have,and maintain, as close to neutral position of each joint so that normal ROM is always possible.thats the whole"length/tension" relationship thing. If the musculature on one side of the joint is too tight it pulls on the joint and malpositions it.
stretch the too tight side and strengthen( tighten) the too loose side with corrective exericses.

CB arm casts, paralette pushups, belt squats

  Knee was wonky from tight soleus from stupid fucking bw LUNGES on Sat! Worked on it all day yesterday and its way better but still not rig...
