        Hey guys,

        When I roll my shoulder forward and backwards I get a fair amount of crunching noise in the front of my shoulders, across chest and collar bone. Any thoughts as to why?
        I have really struggled over the last 6 months with tight shoulders and thoracic mobility. Do you think this may be apart of it?
        I struggle with OH holds and front rack mobility and had consistently tried different mobs, but with very little success. Any help would be great.

            Aimee i’ve been dealing with the same problem and haven’t had any luck fixing it. Did you ever find a solution?

              Crepitus (creaking, cracking, grating, crunching, or popping that occurs when moving a joint) without other symptoms is ok usually is not a cause for concern.
              Many people’s joints crack or pop occasionally, and that is considered normal.
              Air bubbles popping inside the joint could be happening.

              Have you done the archetype assessments?
              I recommend starting the 14 Day Overhead Challenge on the Ready State App. It is located in the Bonus content.
              The app is free and you use your site log in for it.
              Have you seen improvements with what you have been working on?
