    Not to hijack but found day 3 made an unbelievable difference for me. 1,2 and now 4 are all about the same at test and retest, thumbs maybe 2 inches away from ground. From day 3 though (I can only manage 3 minutes, it’s agony) I can get my thumbs to ground and push, which for me is absolutely amazing!

    I can’t do it either. Well from the ground anyway, I find that if I get into it from standing and lowering down it’s far easier. Although not sure if that’s the correct way of doing it.

    That’s really comprehensive! No more questions, I’m good to go. I do sit at a desk all day and my pillow is likely not helping! Thanks again for all your help, really appreciate it.

    I’ll get to it and let you know how it goes!

    Thanks, a lot, really helpful!

    Yeah been doing the neck mobilizations from the pain section, haven’t helped a great deal so far but will stick at it.

    For the 14 day challenge, how would you advise I approach it to increase on the 2 days? Should I say, do day 1 and 2, then repeat before moving on? Should I repeat until I see noticeable change?

    Thanks again

    Should also say that did the 7 assessments:

    Front rack – terrible
    Press is ok
    Hang shape can’t get shoulders on ground
    Overhead chest flared and arms forwards
    Squat, feels like quads and hips
    Pistol same
    Lunge outer hip when pulling leg forward is unbelievably tight/sore

    Hey,

    Thanks for the reply! I don’t have a movement practice at the moment. I used to do CrossFit but gym closure and kids got in the way so currently focusing on fixing my mobility and doing bodyweight exercises and running.

    I have pain at the moment in my front and back neck, clavicle and what feels like my trap and shoulder. Sometimes gives a dull ache down my arm. Haven’t had a diagnosis on this and can’t get one due to covid. I’ve been focusing on the neck mobilizations but don’t know if that’s best. I’ve also been noticing rear hip/lower back pain towards the end of my running!

    So I’ve got a whole load of things to fix. Thanks for your guidance, would continuing with the neck along with the 14 day challenge be ok or too much?

    Thanks

    Kev
