Ok guys week 3 is almost up and we're coming towards the end of our first 4 week cycle. Your positions in the deadlift and squat are already improving but we want to get better! So what I have here is more mobility work for you strength cats to do.
I have a pre-squat vid which I want you guys to do before any squat session that comes up. So it needs to be done before every Friday squat session if you can get in on time, it works on opening up the hip, ankle, knee and improving mobility in the bottom position. It requires no equipment so find a space and get your stretch on.

Next is a pre-deadlift vid and like the squat I'd like it do be done before our deadlift sessions if you can, this one works on hitting the high part of the hamstrings with some Contract/Relax PNF stretching. It's aimed at improving the start position.

The videos I put up last week have now been relagated to days where we are not squatting or deadlifting but don't forget about them as they're still important to do.
See you in the gym,
Craig
