Morning Mobility Wake-Up

Keep intensity low first thing: tissues are cold and less compliant. This is about feeling looser and moving, not chasing maximal range.

Grade inherited from the evidence blocks this routine implements. Duration is a starting point (do more or less); the app just tells you where you land against the evidence-based dose.
