Pat Fact of the Day –
When Pat deadlifts, he doesn’t pull the bar up – he pushes the world down.
hahahahahaha!
Thanks, Tim, for the Hip Mobility link. I linked to the next page, http://www.marksdailyapple.com/how-to-regain-and-maintain-hip-mobility, and it has lots of good exercises and advice.
Also, I still think Yoga could have a place in Crossfit as a way to stretch more effectively. Go to: http://chadsmithcrossfit.blogspot.com/ and scroll down on the right to view some good videos of yoga stretches.
Good luck to the Tough Mudder competitors!
GOOD LUCK GUYS!!!
