Show Notes

What's up, Achievers?! Really, really solid episode today for you all - even though we felt jet lagged because of a fire alarm that woke us up in the middle of the night! There is a little static for some reason at the end of question one, but it seemed to work itself pretty quickly. We first discussed all of the contradictory advice and information concerning foam rolling, and rolling your IT band (2:33). We then covered what to do if you're experience shoulder and neck pain from pull ups. We described why this might be happening as well as some strategies to counteract it (8:42)! Then we talked about how to approach warming up quickly when you're short on time (13:15). Lastly, we gave some advice to a recent grad with an Exercise Science degree on whether or not they should think to open up a gym (17:39). We hope you enjoyed this episode! If you did, we'd love you forever if you left a rating and review on iTunes - it seriously helps us out a lot! Please DM us @achievefitnessboston on Instagram if you have any questions you'd like us to answer. Until next time, Peace, Love, and Muscles! Jason and Lauren
