Add Dynamic Range of Motion (DROM) exercises to your morning routine to improve flexibility and joint mobility throughout the day and your life. Begin with low-speed, low-amplitude movements and gradually increase with each rep. Basic movements include single and double arm swings, over and backs, both upright and bent over torso rotations, and leg swings to the front, sides, and back. 10-20 reps of each is plenty.

You want an outdoor weightlifting platform. Maybe indoor space is limited, or maybe you just want to boost testosterone with 20-rep squats in the sun. But for some silly reason, the folks who built your facility were concerned with water drainage and the area in which you want your platform is sloped. Sloped weightlifting platforms, it turns out, don't work well.
