KINSTRETCH in Austin: June's Program Breakdown

At Motive Training, KINSTRETCH isn’t just about stretching—it’s a joint-by-joint training system that builds control, resilience, and lasting change. Every month, our class structure evolves with purpose. June’s programming follows a progressive, full-body schedule designed to hit every major area of your body with intent, precision, and impact.

Whether you’re new to mobility work or deep into your FRC practice, these classes will help you feel stronger, more capable, and better connected from the inside out.

Here’s what we’re focusing on this month.

Monday: Upper Body Focus - Shoulders, Scaps, & Arms - 6:15 PM With Brian Murray

We start the week with what most people ignore: true shoulder rotation and arm articulation. This class delves into the deep structure of the shoulder joint, enhancing how your scapula glides, your shoulder rotates, and your elbow and wrist coordinate with upper body movements.

You’ll work through:

• Shoulder internal and external rotation (critical for pain-free pressing).
• Scapular CARs and segmental control.
• Elbow and wrist mobility drills that reinforce joint function and reduce overuse strain.

If you’re struggling with overhead lifts, poor posture, or nagging shoulder pain, this is where it gets better.

Tuesday: Lower Body - Ground-Up Foundations - 7:00 AM With Andres Ubach

We move down the chain on Tuesdays, focusing on the feet, toes, and ankles. These are often neglected, but they set the tone for everything above them—especially your hips and core.

This session is about reconnecting your lower body foundation:

• Ankle dorsiflexion and plantarflexion training.
• Big toe and forefoot control drills.
• Linking foot and ankle function to glute activation.

It’s the kind of work that helps you walk, squat, and balance better without even realizing how bad it was before.

Wednesday: Lower Body - Hips, Knees, & Pelvis - 6:15 PM with Brian Murray

This is our structural deep dive into the lower half. We target the big hinge points—your hips and knees—while teaching you how to organize your pelvis for strength and stability.

Expect to train:

• Hip rotation (both internal and external) for better range and squat depth.
• Knee integrity and control through isometrics and long-lever loading.
• Pelvic tilts, shifts, and control drills that build real-world strength.

From pain-free stairs to better barbell lifts, this class reinforces your ability to own lower body movement. If you’ve been feeling stuck in your hips or stiff in your knees, this is the session to fix it.

Thursday: Upper Body - Spine, Neck, & Accessories - 7:00 AM With Andres Ubach

We close out the week by zooming in on spinal control, especially the thoracic spine and cervical region. In a world of forward head posture and rounded backs, most people have no idea how to move their spine—let alone train it.

This class will help you:

• Improve T-spine extension and rotation (essential for pressing, pulling, and posture).
• Reclaim neck mobility and reduce stiffness from tech-neck habits.
• Integrate your spine with shoulder and scapular mechanics for a stronger, more capable upper half.

If you sit at a desk or deal with tension headaches, you’ll notice a difference fast.

Classes are held at our South Austin location, where you can experience hands-on coaching and a community built around better movement.

Why We Program This Way

Mobility isn’t about being more flexible. It’s about gaining usable, controlled range of motion—joint by joint, system by system. That’s why each week in June is split across four essential regions:

• Monday: Arm + shoulder articulation.
• Tuesday: Foot/ankle integrity and glute connection.
• Wednesday: Deep hip and knee structural work.
• Thursday: Spinal segmentation and postural control.

This progression lets us train everything that matters while avoiding the randomness that plagues most group classes. You don’t need 100 new drills every week—you need the right ones, done with intention.

And that’s what KINSTRETCH at Motive Training is built for.
