This needs to be done so many times. It's wonderful!

Best Thoracic routine on the app for me!!

Oh wow I'm feeling it all over. Great to get moving!!

This was a great thoracic routine, shame i can't kneel but regression to a chair works fine.

Michelle

Literally any routine you pick you'll feel better!!

1. Thoracic TTN twist Lvl2 
2. Thoracic windmills Lvl2 
3. Thoracic TNN reach ups Lvl2 
4. Thoracic knee grab rech ups Lvl2 
5. Thoracic cat camel elevated Lvl2

Thread-the-needle twists 

One of the staples of my social media page, and a big time exercise for upgraded thoracic mobility 

- do a standard TTN
- reach the arm back and feel this everywhere 

This one is know you come with sound effects. Don’t be alarmed, as long as it’s not associated with pain you’re good

Thoracic TTN twist Lv2

Windmills

- as arm goes down, other elbow retracts up
- pinch shoulder blades together 
- look up at extended arm to finish off rotation 

Lower level: sit on edge of chair

Thoracic Windmills lv2

Thoracic Mobility Reach Ups 

Notes:
- on all fours
- lead with elbow as shown 
- pinch shoulder blades on the top when reaching up

Thoracic TTN reach ups Lv2

Thoracic knee grab reach ups 

This one is a fav!

- kneeling
- grab knee or just place hand on knee 
- reach up with other hand
- look up at hand that is reaching up

Level up by holding on to an elastic band 
Level down by sitting on a chair

Thoracic knee grab reach ups Lv2

Elevate your cat camel exercise with this one

Notes:
- use a bench or chair-height surface 
- elbows on, sink chest down
- extend elbows, hands on, cat your back 

Back and forth equals one lap. Focus on the upper back/thoracic spine

I noticed that my left hip has good external but limited internal rotation and my right hip has the opposite. The spider crawl was very challenging as I cannot bend my knees and ankles that far yet.

Full body scorpions a fun reminder how good the body can feel when muscles are happy

It was hard to sit up straight and hold my arms out on the last two. But I managed to do it a littler slower.

Struggled with the hip lifts. It felt like my brain isn't talking to my hips at all! Help!

I think if I did this one every day it would be a game changer!

Anytime of the day!! Do this group of movements and repeat

5 Minute Mobility 5 (Lvl1)

Is there anyway to mark an exercise that gives me trouble so I can be sure to return to it

Jack

Had to change some exercises but I think I'll feel great in a bit

5 Minute mobility 6 (Lvl2)

I'm gaining range of motion in my rotation. Which makes this routine a MUST DO!!

5 Minute Mobility 8 (Lvl3)

Very difficult for me. But should feel better in a bit

Real good thoracic and hip mobility sequence!

Blake

Feeling it today. Went slower but always feels great to move!!

5 Minute Mobility 9 (Lvl2)

Very interesting. I found going to my right for the big toe flexions very awkward and the ankle step outs were hard. This will be part of my routine now.

Vicki

Post run- great to stretch out my ankles.

I skipped this one while doing all the 5 min L1 level mobility routines because I didn’t have a PVC pipe. I finally grabbed the pole that opens our skylight – worked great! This is a fabulous T-spine routine.

Amazing movements.  First time with this routine. Also VERY EFFECTIVE without a stick/pipe

5 Minute Mobility 13 (Lvl1)

I always feel better after your mobility exercises. I love this app!

5 Minute Mobility 15 (Lvl3)

Another great brief routine that hits all the spots! Would love to see a video of the modified pigeon for people with much less mobility – my leg doesn’t cross over nearly as far as Dr. Jacob’s and my hips don’t come this far forward!

Little bit of everything in this one! Anything you pick in this app, you'll feel better!!

5 Minute Mobility 16 (Lvl1)

Do this as a warm-up and you'll feel so much better!!

Added bonus is it gets the heart going! Gonna try this as a warm-up tomorrow morning

5 Minute Mobility 17 (Lvl3)

A whole lot in very little time. Added more Thoracic Rotation at the end and feeling great!!

5 Minute Mobility 18 (Lvl2)

5 Minute Mobility 19 (Lvl2)

Five great  exercises hitting spots you wouldn’t normally reach with regular exercises.

Very important to work the forearms. So much circulation
