Thursday, April 25, 2013 - Workout

I'm sure you guys have figured out by now that I'm a huge fan of MobilityWOD.com, and pretty much anything Kelly Starrett.  If you haven't checked it out, then I highly recommend you do so.  Not only is there tons of good info on recovering from and preventing injury, but also on increasing your performance.  Many of you have limiting factors related more to your positioning and flexibility than to your strength, and religiously following the Mobility WOD's will definitely help you improve on those things.  The reason I bring all of this up is that Starrett released his book yesterday (mine arrived last night) and it is unbelievably good.  I would highly recommend it for anyone that cares about their bodies (which all of you obviously do).  You can read more about the book here as well as purchase it if you are interested.  I'll bring mine to the gym for the next few days so you can check it out if you're interested:

And here's a recommended Mobility WOD.  If you really want my recommendation it would be to start with #1 and work your way up to current doing every one of them:
