#therapyThursday Ever get wrist pain during push-ups and yoga? A great and easy exercise to perform at home from the FRC playbook is shown by Pete. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W_nv4w7yydY&t=5s

#therapyThursday. We love the suitcase carry exercise. It's a great alternative to side planks or a great addition on its own to your program. Pete takes you through a few of our favourite coaching cues for the suitcase carry. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zFje79PZsxQ

#TherapyThursday. We love exercises that both generate hip strength and at the same time spare the back. One of our favourites (and one that is very commonly performed incorrectly) is the windshield washer land mine exercise. Check it out here. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i9J2yFP61j0

#therapyThursday. We love split squats and variations of split squats. Sometimes when people have 'cranky' knees lunging can irritate them. A recent article came out suggesting a method to shift some of the onus from the knee to the hip during lunges. Hit the link to check it out. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ByZUbxwvN24

#TherapyThursday: We showed you the 7 way hip series, well here is the 6 way Scap series. This is great for moderate to advanced shoulder rehab, or as a great burner at the end of a workout. Give it a try! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6JX43O-w_nA
