Show Notes

What's up, Achievers?! We go through a lot of information in a short amount of time for this one! In the first question, we talk about why a person's hamstrings might "feel" chronically tight (2:14). Then, we discuss the second part of the question, which is how to go about activating the glutes better (6:28). After that, we discuss some ideas to strength and mobilize your wrists. [Here's](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Grl61Eym9go) the YouTube video we reference on wrist warm ups. (10:20) Finally, we talk about foot supination - or rolling to the sides of your feet while squatting. [Here's](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J2RDnkq_thU&t=0s) the YouTube video we reference about ankle mobility (15:05). 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
