Unlock Better Rib Cage Mobility with Rib Cage CARs | Improve Shoulder Health
Is your rib cage stuck? Not sure? Discover how to unlock better rib cage mobility with Rib Cage Controlled Articular Rotations (CARs). In this video, I’ll guide you through simple and effective exercise that will help you create more movement in your rib cage, reducing unnecessary strain on your shoulders, hips, and lower back.
When the rib cage is immobile, other parts of your body, like the shoulders, low back and hips, have to compensate, leading to overuse and potential injury. By incorporating Rib Cage CARs into your routine, you can restore balance, improve overall movement quality, and prevent discomfort or pain.

Should I Take My Knee Past the Ankle in a Lunge? | Tate Englund Yoga

Why as yoga teachers/students do we oftentimes believe, say, or do things without really thinking or asking why? First off, I think it’s because we’re human.

    Looks like a great way to learn handstands, because there is no wall, no support, no room for cutting corners like I always do 😇. There has to be balance all the time. I can imagine that learners put their legs too far back, because the fear of the face plant, from which I also still suffer.

  • @JiLiRita369
    @JiLiRita369 2 месяца назад

    This makes perfect sense to me. I've been struggling with a lower back issue for quite some time, which I believe is due to over-twisting the lower back, where there's only 3 to 5 degrees of movement available. My rib cage and upper body range of motion and mobility are limited, and I think this inflexibility in the upper body causes me to compensate by over-twisting my lower back, leading to strain and pain. I completely agree with you and will apply your method to my practice tomorrow. The challenge, though, is that there are times when a teacher might try to help adjust my lifted shoulder to the ground! :)

    • @TateEnglundYoga
      @TateEnglundYoga 2 месяца назад

      I’m sorry you’ve been dealing with low back stuff. That’s no fun at all! Definitely working on rib cage mobility as well as strengthening and mobilizing the hips should be very helpful for your low back. Also, moving the steps of the twist into the ribcage and out of the low back will be something to focus on. If the teacher continues to try to get you to get that shoulder down, tell them to come see me. They could probably use more training and education 😉😂. I'll create another video for the rib cage mobiliity next week. I have a great drill for that.

    Thank you! This is great. Do you know why my knee might hurt on the inner side (medial, near kneecap) when bent/front leg in pigeon? I love the pose but my left knee has been complaining lately. I used to have sacroiliac issues on that side but core strengthening and yoga have helped that. Now it’s just this knee… thanks in advance!

    • @TateEnglundYoga
      @TateEnglundYoga Год назад

      Hi Susan, When you say your knee hurts, are you talking in the 90/90 version I show in the video or when you take a more traditional pigeon pose? If it hurts in traditional pigeon, it is most likely due to the tibia rotating a little different then the femur. The 90/90 helps prevent the femur and tibia rotating differently from each other.

    3:22 is probably the best illustration of this point. I think a lot of instructors emphasize leaving the hands on the floor, or maybe on the knees. Some instructors will cue the hands on the thighs. Personally, I like hands-on-thighs, because it feels like I can also engage my shoulder blades and get the sensation I'm doing a bent-over row. Does that make sense/is that a good way to approach halfway lift?

      Hi Dima! It’s hard to tell what exactly is keeping you from being able to bind without seeing you in the posture but if I had to guess it’s probably your shoulders and especially internal rotation of the shoulders. It still could easily be the twist that is keeping you from binding but start with the shoulders and keep working on your twists
