People these days are anxious when it comes to mastering the body and the funny thing is that the anxious feelings they have tend to override them doing anything of value in order to try and actually master their body. In other words, most people don’t have the patience to work on the little things that require them to build an optimally functioning body along with the strength and aesthetic qualities that they desire the most. As a result they wonder why they have neck, shoulder, hip, and knee issues. Well we’re going to try and solve this problem here today.
