I wanted to share the idea of “joint gapping.” It’s a simple way to create more space in a stiff or tight joint to help with movement.
Essentially, you can use a towel or another object to act as a fulcrum to create a gapping or spacing in the joint.
When a joint is stiff, specifically a “hinge joint” (think of a hinge on the door-opening and closing) such as the elbow and knee, you can see how placing a towel between the joint were the joint bends can create a fulcrum and a gapping to make space.
So if you’re dealing with an elbow injury or a stiff elbow joint, check out the Grappling RX – Elbow Rehab Course to get a step-by-step proven approach to mobility, strength, and return to sport.

And if you’re dealing with some stiff knees, and having problems sitting back on the heels, then Grappling RX – How To Sit Back On The Heels will be the perfect course to improve your kneeling position and improving your base for BJJ (which will make you more stable and more difficult to sweep).

The way that the body moves and functions is both complex and unique.
The Joint-By-Joint Approach is a concept founded by Physical Therapist Gray Cook, which expresses the idea that each joint of the body tends to have a specific function focused either on mobility or stability, and the joints stack in an alternating pattern.
Mobility is the ability of a joint to move freely, while stability is the ability of a joint to maintain or return to proper alignment. And these joints working properly is vital to the body functioning optimally.
For example: if a mobile joint becomes stiff, then it can lead to a stable joint becoming more mobile, and can lead to instability and even injury.
The video explains this concept in more detail and with some ideas that can be applied right away.

Rib injuries are some of the most difficult types of injuries to treat.
They hinder pretty much every aspect of movement and have a tendency to get re-injured easily and also tend to linger due to frequent re-injury.
Here are my 8 tips that will help speed up your recovery and get you back on the mats and back to normal life safely and with less risk of re-injury.

Here is a clip from session 1 of Grappling RX – Elbow Rehab.
I take through a sample of the first session starting out with shoulder, elbow, and wrist CARs which are incredibly useful for regaining and improving range of motion, followed by a couple of basic stretches.
This course was created by me, a Doctor of Physical Therapy and Jiu-Jitsu Black Belt for individuals who have sustained an elbow injury and are trying to get back to grappling and regular activity. This course is for recovery from mild-moderate elbow injuries and elbow pain that can commonly occur with grappling.
