Shoulder Mobility Yoga Flow


Initial Mile Endi

This yoga routine, Shoulder Mobility Flow can help warriors increase shoulder mobility and flexibility.


If we think about the warriors in the anime universe, it's common to first think about how "jacked" some of these anime characters are and rarely think about other factors that contribute to warriors flexibility and mobility. Now, if we think about who the most flexible and mobile character is in the anime universe, one anime character that may come to mind first is Monkey D. Luffy from One Piece! Although his range of motion is beyond our reach in the human world, it's still possible to achieve super flexibility and mobility, if not, at least a healthy range of flexibility and mobility that will allow us to complete regular daily activities without aches or pains. This anime inspired yoga routine, Shoulder Mobility will require warriors to complete a series of basic and intermediate exercises that can help improve overall shoulder mobility and flexibility.
