Mobility for Meatheads Early into your training career the amount of injuries is likely to be sparse. Over time, with repetitive movements and maybe not enough time off, comes some wear and tear. Many people are recently jumping on the Romwod bandwagon although I believe that crowd largely consists of crossfitters and weightlifters and not as many powerlifters or meat heads in general. Todays series is good for: Avid bench pressers, athletes in sports that require overhead activity (volleyball, swimming, baseball, etc.) Some upcoming questions: How do you program mobility? Do I have a mobility day like I have a chest day? I have struggled in the past justifying doing "stretching" after a 2 and a half hour training session. These articles won't include those hour long hot yoga session people keep telling you to go to. These exercises can either be performed pre- or post- workout to either warm up or just to get the work in. They should take approximately 5 ...

In recent decades heart rate variability (HRV) has been applied in the clinical setting to treat and diagnose cardiovascular disease and other disorders. Extensive research into HRV can be traced to the early 1990s. HRV involves measuring the beat-to-beat variability by the heart to assess the function of the autonomic nervous system. HRV can therefore be used as a tool to assess the function of the parasympathetic nervous system or vagal tone as well. Many different mathematical equations or logarithms currently exist to measure and express HRV. The literature most commonly expresses HRV as the standard deviation of N-N intervals (SDNN) or as the square root of the mean of the sum of the squares of the successive differences between adjacent normal R-R intervals (RMSSD). Observing the variability from a low frequency gives insight into sympathetic modulatio...
