Tightness in the front shoulders and chest restricts the diaphragm by limiting chest expansion, creating less efficient shallow, chest breathing. This forces the neck and shoulder accessory muscles to work harder, creating a cycle of muscle tension, poor posture, and reduced breathing efficiency. Over time, this can also lead to muscle fatigue and even affect spinal and core stability AND the health of our pelvic floor!

So today we spend time addressing restricted muscles across the anterior, or frontal, shoulders and chest. We will also do plenty of work to open up the side body.

Please forgive me on this, but Filus decided she was going to moon our audience today and I completely forgot to edit that part out. You'll probably be face down and shoulder deep in a myofascial pose and won't notice, but in case you do! lol
