Plain and simple, make sure the parts actually work before you worry about having them work together. All the motor control drills and sexy social media movement hacks aren't gonna do jack for you if you have a true mechanical restriction, i.e. that joint doesn't move, that tissue doesn't glide, whatever. If it ain't moving, you ain't moving.

So, while movement drills may be part of what you do to help restore that mobility, recognize the order of operations here, and stop trying to snatch when you have the ankle of the tin man and a thoracic spine like a ? shell. First make sure everything works, THEN focus on making it work together.
