Listen "Ep:52 Start With The Ribcage"
Episode Synopsis
Jorge and Schultze celebrate one year of Strength in Context by diving deep into the ribcage as the foundation of upper body mechanics. They discuss practical applications such as why ribcage position and movement are critical for shoulder health, how narrow vs. wide presentations shape performance, and the role of flexion, rotation, lateral bending, and expansion in unlocking options for pain-free training. https://www.instagram.com/brandon.schultze/ https://www.instagram.com/jorgedehoyos_/ PSL1 Registration is now LIVE.
