			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Thank you all for making the effort to be there yesterday. Here are my notes in the hope that it will help you remember some of the things we went over. If you ever need a specific stretch or have a question, please ask. We are here to help you become better athletes and keep you healthy and strong for life. Hope you all bought some fish oil yesterday.</p>
<p> <a href="http://madcrossfit.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/kstar-chasingperformance.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-2176" title="kstar chasingperformance" src="http://madcrossfit.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/kstar-chasingperformance.jpg" alt="" width="242" height="270" /></a></p>
<p><em>Kelly Starrett the rock star of Crossfit Mobility has a new blog, check it out </em><a href="http://mobilitywod.blogspot.com/"><em>HERE</em></a><em>.</em></p>
<p><strong>Why we should Care About Mobility:</strong></p>
<p>Improve Performance</p>
<p>Injury Prevention</p>
<p>Injury Resolution</p>
<p>Leads to Ideal Technique</p>
<p>CF is the best Tool on the planet, but limitations will arise</p>
<p>Load Appropriately to succeed with your limitations, whatever they may be THAT day.</p>
<p><strong>Form before Intensity &#8211; TRAIN FOR LIFE!</strong></p>
<p>Once you’ve lost Positioning you can never get back.  Even with only 20% slop in your workout, you have still lost your position.  That puts you at risk for injury.</p>
<p>Common examples of “lost position” are:</p>
<p>      adducted knees on squats</p>
<p>      Rounding back</p>
<p>      Over flexed lumbar</p>
<p>      Hips under extended in drive overhead</p>
<p>Shoulders- Who has sore shoulders and what are you doing about it? Recover Like it is your JOB, work on it every day. Take the steps to heal yourself. Repair and recover. You do not need to live in any pain. Bring better balance to your life, by taking care of yourself.</p>
<p>All you need at home to help your recover is – Ball, two tennis balls (taped together) and a strap</p>
<p>Make all Stretches PNF for quicker change (static stretching will take longer to see change)</p>
<p>Foot – Lacrosse Ball</p>
<p>Calves – Wall Stretch and Lacrosse Ball</p>
<p>Hips – Wall stretch or pole</p>
<p>Quads – Knee to floor push hip forward</p>
<p>Hamstrings – strap resistance</p>
<p>Back –squat and sit for 10minutes</p>
<p>Pecs – resist on bar</p>
<p>Triceps – across chest with resistance</p>
<p>Forearms &#8211; against floor</p>
<p>Fingers/thumbs/wrists</p>
<p>Shoulders &#8211; roll, straps, bands, thumbs down on the bar</p>
<p>Neck – ear to shoulder, chin to chest with resistance</p>
<p><strong><em> The BIG 3 -</em></strong></p>
<p>Fish Oil</p>
<p>Ice</p>
<p>Stretch every day</p>
<p><em>D$</em></p>
