Episode 3368: Eric Leija explains why thoracic mobility is a missing piece in most fitness routines and how improving it can enhance posture, breathing, and overall movement quality. By restoring flexibility in the spine, you can move more efficiently, reduce injury risk, and unlock better performance in both workouts and daily life. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://www.ericleija.com/improving-spinal-mobility-why-its-crucial-exercises-to-do/ Quotes to ponder: "Because the spine is designed to be flexible, it can move through various planes simultaneously." "Proper posture can help reduce pressure on your knees and lower back, which can help ease joint pain and/or inflammation." "If your spine is stiff, like wood, it has a higher likelihood of breaking during an impact. Instead, if it is bendy, like bamboo, it is less likely to break under force."
