Hi everyone,
I've lurked this sub for a long time, but this is my first post. I have a few questions about mobility and warm-ups, but first some info about me and my training and goals.
I'm 29 years old, 80kg (176lbs), 189cm (6'2). I've been training with kettlebells for approx 6 months.
My goals are:
Now for my questions and the last goal: improved mobility and posture.
So, I have been to a sports physio and had a full check up for my movement. These are the following issues:
What I am hoping to get from this thread are some ideas towards an elegant warm-up and/or mobility routine to do before my S&S sessions. I LOVE the simplicity of S&S. I would love an equally simple/efficient mobility/warm-up routine.
So here are my questions:
Warm-up:
Anything you could add or suggest would be greatly appreciated!

I'm 29 years old, 80kg (176lbs), 189cm (6'2). I've been training with kettlebells for approx 6 months.
My goals are:
- Improve swings from Simple to Solid.
- Improve TGUs from 5/5 with the 24kg, to 5/5 with the 32kg.
- Chin-ups from 15 to 20.
- Run 5k in 19:59 (current PR is about 21:20)
- Improve mobility and posture!
Now for my questions and the last goal: improved mobility and posture.
So, I have been to a sports physio and had a full check up for my movement. These are the following issues:
- My thoracic mobility isn't great.
- My hamstrings are inflexible.
- I have slight anterior pelvic tilt and slight forward head posture/internally rotated shoulders.
What I am hoping to get from this thread are some ideas towards an elegant warm-up and/or mobility routine to do before my S&S sessions. I LOVE the simplicity of S&S. I would love an equally simple/efficient mobility/warm-up routine.
So here are my questions:
- What has helped you to improve your posture?
- What do you recommend for improving thoracic mobility?
- Hamstring flexibility?
- APT/Forward head?
Warm-up:
- Foam roller/lacrosse ball - thoracic, lats, lower body.
- Prying Goblet Squat 3 x 5 (a per S&S)
- Bretzel
- S&S plus chin-ups
- Hamstring stretching, 90/90 stretching
Anything you could add or suggest would be greatly appreciated!
