A surgeon who specialised in repairing shoulder injuries, stated that THE best thing you can do for you shoulders, is to hang from a chinning bar for a minute or more, every day. He stated that in all his years of practise, this alone beat stretches/physios/chiro/meds, etc. He actually wrote an entire book about it.Hang from a pull-up bar, 30 seconds or more, daily. It works!
I always, always, always do Iron Wolf’s warmup and cool down with stretches. However, my groin on both sides is what hurts most. Any recommended stretches for that, Art sir? This isn’t a joke. I think leaping forward is what does it.
Not a fix but if you're still trying to bench press grab a slingshot bro... it's the only thing keeping me on the bench after 2 separate shoulder injuries.
I'm discovering this truth at 57. I now do a ton of roller-ball and foam roller work pre and post-workout for pliability. It truly has aided in my recovery unlike anything else I've done.
53 here. I noticed this around being 40 years...from 35 years the body signifantly start to lose its recuperation strength . Hence many top athletes quitting because of not recovering around that age. Some last longer. But between 30 and 40 it starts to go down. Football players , team sports. Where speed is an important factor. Achilles , knees, tendons that won't recover well ...
Impeccable timing....I got the notification of this upload just before my workout. Did my first 300 unbroken burpees straight after this warm up in 34 mins...happy days! Thanks for sharing Iron Wolf 🙏
@@MK-zf6or Took me just over a week. But, it ain't a race....we're all at different levels of fitness and ability....just keep following the Wolf, build on each workout and you'll get there 🐺💪
@@burpeesandbells thats insane man, putting in my first day today, idk if u ever heard of "hell week", its from the marines or seals training I believe, I have final college exams, fasting for Ramadan, and iron wolf workouts to do everyday so Im using this time as a perfect way to build mental toughness and no excuses. Lets stay training,
First time I saw a video from iron wolf I didn't get it... Didn't understand why all those reps... Now I think I understand, it's about get goals and improve with the basics, no gym, no machines are needed.. no proteins no prework out.. real training.. real food and real values..
Hey iron still night here.. going to bed because in 3 hours i will be at work .. will do my workout tomorrow as soon as i will get home from work .. stay strong
Day 2 of doing this and my shoulders are on fire! can already feel a much improved range of motion in my shoulders and overall posture! thanks. Respect from the UK brother!
Messed my shoulder up working badly years ago and couldn’t workout for months and months and was getting discouraged. Started doing band work like this every day and now the shoulder is totally fine. This video is excellent and going forward I’ll start using this before workouts. Cheers!
This just adds to all the GREAT warm-up, cool-down, stretching, and mobility videos that I.W. has already provided to us. These types of videos are GOLD! Thanks Art!
Thanks Wolf, just did these prior to my Saturday challenge and yeah my shoulders are warmed up ready to go. Thank you much respect, glad to be part of the Wolf 🐺 pack for 4 months now.
Fucked my elbow doing the Dips on the Monday session. Still cant do exercise or turn the steering wheel! Make sure you pay attention when doing dips guys, its an annoying injury.
Big thanks...again! Doing the beginner april challenge, and up ‘till now without ANY shoulder pain! (Been injured for almost 2 years, couln’t even do push-ups properly) but with your warm-up, cool-down and shoulder routine, together with your workouts, ALL is fine. And fitness progression is insanely good too. You really did put a lot of good effort and thinking in this challenge. Salute sir.
been out for about 2 months now, rotator cuff injury (not sure how severe it is),cant do push ups for a while, and gonna try this routine and hopefully this gonna help, been doing this before my workouts yet Ididnt see much difference, which I think means my shoulder has been messed up badly, since wolfs workouts and stretches are always exteemely effective
Thanks Wolf. This routine is money in the bank for shoulder health. Great idea about the 500 and 1000 burpee shirts. Just ordered my 500 burpee shirt. NIKE......WHERE YOU AT??? Nike needs to show some love to the channel. Much Respect always.
3 questions... 1: will this help someone who has previously tore their rotator cuff? Messed myself up on the bench a year ago and my bench has still yet to recover. 2: is all you do high rep calisthenics or do you lift as well? Thats a pretty good physique for not touching weights. 3: given my previous injury do you think high rep calisthenics is advisable? I can't bench more than 5 reps without using a slingshot but push ups are painless. Mostly worried about dips.
invaluable, very clearly explained and demonstrated. I am learning so much from you, The best, Thank you I noticed (you probably mentioned this before) and have learned that counting out aloud is a great way to keep your breathing in check as well as keeping track
this is amazing. i’ve recently damaged my rotator cuff. do you have anything similar for knees. i’m 50 and have arthritis if the knee but want to continue competing in mma
Band exercises are very good. I trained with band when i had football knee injury long time ago and it helped to build musscles for stabilization. Thank You brother 👍im gonna do this in sunday as part of active recovery. Salute🐺🌍
hello wolfpack, any tipps on how to avoid wrist pain? doing the april challenge and i'm forced to pause for some days as the pain in my wrists is unbearable. bought wrist wraps , but too late. am i not engaging my core enough during pushups, or is there a specific warmup i should do for the wrists? i roll them and stretch them a bit before and after the workout. salute!
Wrist warmups are a must. Try flexing your hand and see if it makes a greater than 90 degree angle. If so, means your wrists need flexibility training. Personally, I use a pair of cheap push up bars for Burpees, keeps the wrist in a more neutral position, but it is one more piece of kit to tote around.
