Instead of sticking your head waaaay through the window, a good set of active shoulders means shrugging your shoulders up so hard that they cover your ears.

A great example is of this old picture of Robb Wolf and Annie Hawkins demonstrating overhead squat position:

Truthfully, how many times a week do you stretch out your hips? How long is the duration of those stretches?

We recommend stretching your hips for a minimum of 2 minutes each side daily- to counterbalance the amount of work we do with them- in the gym AND in your normal daily life.
