Video 713 | Mobility Reset: Upper Body (30 minutes) with Lauren Eirk
7 Day Fitness Plan
•
15-Oct-2025
Tightness is often a sign that muscles are weak. In this workout, we will improve mobility of the upper body using the FIS 5-Step Isometrics Blueprint (TM) using bodyweight, a TheraBand, and dumbbells to strengthen weak muscles. A Yoga Block (or pillow) will also be used in some of the exercises.
We begin with three isometric exercises for the shoulders, then work to integrate these into three multi-joint holds using a Yoga Block and TheraBand for feedback. Once control of these positional holds have been practiced we will transition into bodyweight movements. As we begin to add load to these movements for the shoulders, chest, and back, you will feel how seamless these feel. The workout finishes with a challenging exercise combo to optimize muscle health that will challenge core strength as well as the upper body.
