Welcome to the Get Fit Guys quick and dirty tips to get moving and shape up.

My name is Brock Armstrong and I'm the Get Fit Guy.

Good range of motion is the key to living a mobile, active, and fit life,

but range of motion can decrease after an injury or simply as we age.

So today's guest expert, Shane Dowd, joins me to talk about the three exercise pillars that

will help you get and stay fit and flexible. Shane Dowd, the guest on this episode, is a certified massage practitioner,

a strength and conditioning coach, and a corrective exercise specialist, and he's the CEO and

founder of GotROM.com. And Shane is, well, truly passionate about, or maybe even obsessed with, keeping your body moving

at its best. You see, 11 years ago, Shane was told that his hips were so messed up that they

needed surgery, and the x-rays and MRIs confirmed it. He was told,

You're screwed, son, get the surgery before it gets worse.

Well, he didn't listen, and he's glad he didn't.

Now he believes almost anything is possible when you upgrade your passion to an obsession.

And Shane is obsessed with helping people who are injured or

simply getting older, get and stay fit. You know, a few months ago, I was getting frustrated with my

deep squat. That's the kind of squat where you can just sit and chill out with your butt right

near the ground and your heels planted

firmly beneath you. I've been working on and off for years to make my squat more comfortable,

and after some initial success, I plateaued. So when I heard about Shane's website, I signed up for

his 45-day program to master deep squats.

I was so impressed with his approach and my results that I knew I needed to have Shane on the podcast

so we could nerd out all about range of motion.
