Stop Doing This Front Rack Exercise...

Do you hit the PVC box stretch on a regular basis? Though there may be some temporary improvement of the front rack position, it ultimately misses the mark (for most) when trying to improve the underlying cause of a poor front rack: compression of the posterior ribcage.

Instead, I like to perform rock back breathing (as a starter exercise) for my clients to move them in the right direction by expanding the posterior ribcage and compressing the anterior ribcage by using abs (obliques and transverse abdominis). Front rack a bar then give rock back breathing a try for two sets of five breaths then retest your front rack!
