The Missing Link

Woe be unto you if you fail to recognize that mobility is the key to moving forward physically and in mastering old and new skills. While I personally have a good strength background and overall excellent flexibility, I have some mobility issues that have been plaguing me for years. God Bless Dr. Dorothy Dalton, who went to a two-day workshop this past weekend and came back with a whole new bag of exercises and remediations to hopefully get me moving better than ever.

I'm sure that you have some nagging mobility issue that you are either ignoring outright or lying to yourself that it's not a problem.  Hoping they'll go away isn't going to slove the problem and they don't go away by themselves.  Can't touch your toes without cheating?  Shoulders so tight that you can't overhead press?  Hamstrings so tight that you can't fully squat?  Address them now and address them fully - you will be a better athlete and a better person for it.

The following video (while not one of Kelly's best produced) deals with an issue that I share with many of you - T-spine mobility:
