Top 3 Fascia Killers: Caffeine, Stretching, and Isolation Training
Our Top 3 Fascia Killers are the best things to avoid if you want to kickstart your journey towards pain-free movement 👇
1. Caffeine
Caffeine stimulates stress hormones like cortisol.
Excess cortisol causes fascia to become rigid and constrict, leading to the loss of fascia’s elastic function over time. This leads to more joint stiffness and stress on your body.
We’re over-stimulated and under-trained, caffeine makes it harder to find balance with your neuro-myofascial-skeletal system.
2. Stretching and Yoga
When you stretch absent of movement (through space), fascia becomes over used or flaccid in some spots and ignored or stiff in other spots. This leads to problems with muscles contracting effectively and supporting the joints.
When you perform most Yoga poses or static stretches at you’re taking away elastic recoil, or the “spring like” motion we see in animals and people that move well.
3. Isolation Training
If you only focus on training one muscle at a time, this may hinder your fascia’s ability of getting your muscles to work together.
This is why people tend to over-develop the muscles they already use well, and under-develop the ones that aren’t being stimulated enough through movement movement. This leads to overuse can lead to repetitive strain injuries (RSIs) or cumulative trauma disorders (CTDs).
In order to begin hydrating and promoting a healthier fascial system, it’s important to stimulate our deep fascia closer to the periosteum of our bones. When you can stimulate movement at the deepest levels, fascia that is the hardest to reach, is stimulated to move properly. While most practices aim to help the superficial layers of fascia, we get to the deeper aspects of it. This is why we get drastic and life changing results with FP doers around the world.
