Went from ~15° of hip internal rotation to ~30°.

No fancy drills.
No “corrective exercise” circus 🦭 🎪

Just targeted soft tissue mobilization (STM) of the adductor magnus, followed by an immediate reassessment.

Think about what happens when Ryan goes to squat, hinge, run, or rotate under load if he can’t comfortably access that ROM?

And what does he constantly complain about?

“Tight hip flexors.”

But the hip flexors aren’t necessarily the problem.

I call this the HOSE EFFECT.

If water isn’t coming out of the end of a hose, you don’t get pi**ed off at the end of the hose.

You look for the kink.

We love blaming the hip flexors because that’s where someone feels tightness. But the location of the symptom doesn’t automatically tell you what’s driving it.

So instead of immediately stretching the 💩 out of his hip flexors:

Assess → STM the adductors → reassess → build a solid warm-up → TRAIN HEAVY.

STM isn’t magic and one treatment doesn’t permanently “fix” mobility. The goal is to create a temporary window of improved motion and then own that ROM under load.

This is exactly what we teach inside the SUF-STM Certification and during our 2-day SUF seminars.

Comment STM and we’ll send you information on the certification, CEUs, cost, live calls, and upcoming seminars.

5 of my favorite chest finishers:

1. B***y Press (ladies love this one)
2. Larson Press
3. Close-Grip Incline Press
4. Banded 135 AMRAP
5. Chest Fly w/ Stability Ball

Throw some novelty at the END of your program so your clients feel something different, experience a new stimulus, and have some fun.

Your main lifts should focus on producing force and progressive overload. Your finishers are where you can get creative.

TRAINERS IMPLEMENTING THE CCA 🔥

Hinge → Push → Accessory

The accessory? Trainer-engaged Pallof presses + med-ball variations that challenge stability, coordination, and reaction.

Programming shouldn’t be random.

When you understand how to regress, progress, and modify a program on the fly, you become a more confident coach — especially when working with clients in pain.
