#keepmoving
With ⬇️ activity & long periods of sitting (particularly with the current pandemic) this can:
❌Shorten hip flexors = impacting hip mobility & movement
❌Weaken glute muscles
❌Lead to lower back pain
Here is a 4️⃣ stage hip mobility routine to help address these areas 👍
It’s time to wish all our current and past players and back room staff the very best of luck in the AI Football Final. Big shout out to:Paul Conroy, Shane Walsh, James Foley, Johnny Mcgrath and of course Jason Donoghue who is part of the back room team - Gaillimh Abú💪
