Movement prep isn't just about mobility and stretching; it's about preparing your entire body for action!
It involves getting your vision, nervous system, and global movement patterns ready to meet the demands of the game

If your hips feel stiff all the time, then STOP watch this
One common mistake that most athletes make when trying to increase their mobility is they don’t stabilize the middle
Pro-tip: Use a wall to activate the DEEP CORE
Core Stability = Hip mobility
The calm before the FLOW

Talent doesn’t set the ceiling—intentional and deliberate practice does!
Mindless reps won’t make you better
Train with purpose, focus on details, and challenge yourself every session
Small adjustments = big gains
Practice doesn’t make perfect. Perfect practice makes progress
