Intro/Info

Dr. Andreo Spina is an international speaker on the topics of joint health, movement and mobility development, sports performance, and injury management. His strong academic background and clinical experience in combination for his personal love for BJJ (Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, which is like chess with anatomy) and helping others move better has fueled the creation of his Functional Range Release® soft tissue management system and the Functional Range Conditioning® mobility development system. He has a ton of free resources out on the internet, and they are scattered about on his website, YouTube channel and Instagram.

As you could see, these are all registered trademarks and so I am only limited to what I can say but luckily for us, he and his students regularly release stuff publicly which I can feature. Note: FRC® is not just a bunch of random “exercises.” It is a massive system with progressions and prerequisites that I cannot and will not cover. Dr. Spina says the word “prerequisite” might be the least utilized word or concept in the fitness world. I agree and that is why I utilize prerequisites in my own rings routine to help keep you safe.

If you want to get the full picture of FRC®, you must attend one of his seminars and register early because they all sell out. If you’re a mindful enough mover and have a keen understanding of anatomy and think in terms of progressions/regressions already, you’ll probably find this all very helpful. I urge you to listen to all his podcast interviews and READ the articles and READ the descriptions in all the posts because they are full of great information.
