5 Magical ‘Prehab’ Exercises You Must Try Today
If you want to avoid stiffness and injuries for life, these are critical!
No matter how advanced health and medical technology gets, we’re wired to react to health problems. It’s connected to our intrinsic desire to stay in a state of physiological equilibrium. What we often fail to do, however, is act on warning signs before they become too serious. We spend all our time and energy rehabbing instead of focusing on the easier task of prevention.

Prehab = slightly more advanced exercises focused on strengthening tissues beyond day-to-day tasks to prevent any injury risks moving forward

Today I want to help change that by demonstrating just how simple and quick it can be to maintain your musculoskeletal wellness if you’re proactive about it.
