Get Started With Muscle Activation Techniques® To Keep Your Muscles Strong & Functioning Well: http://vagaro.com/muscleactivationschaumburg/services Professional athletes may be known for their speed, strength, and athleticism, but there is one thing that they do differently than most non-athletes that allows them to compete and perform at their highest level year after year. While you can look at their physical size, their young age, and their genetic gifts and think, “There’s nothing that they do that is applicable to me,” the truth is that there is a key component of their athletic success that they abide by religiously that you can 100% apply to your own life. On this week’s episode of the Exercise Is Health® podcast, we are unveiling what this key component is and how it applies to you. We lay out a framework for you to follow to make sure you are able to implement this key into your own life so you can continue to perform at your highest level every single day. If you want to feel like your body is on your side and is fully able to help you live your life, listen up! This discussion has the information you need to implement.

Maybe you’ve been to some type of therapist who told you you have a tight psoas. Or maybe you have done some internet searches and landed on a tight psoas as the self-diagnosed cause of your issues.
