Are you happy with your overhead lift ?

Overhead lifting is vital for excelling in CrossFit, a demanding fitness regimen. Unlock your overhead lifting potential and elevate your CrossFit journey to new heights.

In order to achieve optimal overhead lift, it is much more than just mobility of the shoulder. There are a few more things we need to look at:

  1. Thoracic Spine Mobility: Limited mobility in the thoracic spine extension and rotation hinders your ability to achieve proper shoulder positioning and can lead to compensations in overhead movements.

  2. Scapular Control: Weakness or imbalances in the scapulae stabilizer can result in unstable overhead positions. Strengthening scapular stabilizers and improving control are vital for safe and efficient overhead lifting.

  3. Core Strength and Stability: A weak core compromises upper trunk stability during overhead movements, reducing power chain efficiency and increasing the risk of injury.

During our one-on-one session, we will assess YOUR movement pattern and identify YOUR limitations. We will apply manual techniques to help alleviate muscle tightness, release adhesions, restore optimal joint function and promote proper alignment during overhead movements. After the overhead mobility is unlocked, YOUR muscle weakness will be targeted and new movement patterns will be apodted.
