Thoracic Extension Over A Foam Roller – this exercise is great for opening up a stiff mid back.

2 sets of 5 repetitions

Stiffness and tightness in the mid back (Thoracic spine) is a common issue due to the positions of Jiu-Jitsu as well as every day life that includes extensive sitting among other activities that forces our spine to round.

This can lead to a rounded posture, decreased mobility, and general stiffness in the mid back which can impact neck, shoulder, and low back function.

In this quick series, I show you exercises that I focused on after I experienced tightness in the mid back after BJJ class.
