I never really comment on videos but I have to say, you sir have changed my life. I'm actually an MScPT student myself and for the last 6 years I bounced around from doc to doc, PT to PT, etc. and none of them had any answers for me. I would tell them over and over that it feels like my body was split down the midline and I felt a torsional force all throughout my trunk/pelvis/neck, my scapulohumeral rhythm was messed up, I had pain and crepitus all over my body including in my jaw, and I would have these involuntary counter-rotational myofascial patterns that made zero sense to everyone including myself. For 6 long years I was told it's everything from being psychological to central symptoms related to referred pain from hiatal & umbilical hernias (which I also have and which I now know is due to the increased intra-abdominal pressure brought on by pelvic torsion) and every single time I was written off as if I was exaggerating how bad it was. My pain never went below a 6/10 and would very very frequently shoot up to a 10+/10 regardless of my posture or if I was supine/prone/side lying/sitting/standing. I became depressed, suicidal, and withdrawn over time because of this. I am aware of how doctors and PTs often like to dismiss other professions (including the biomechanical concepts underpinning the PRI) but I guarantee not a single one of them has ever had to deal with this pain or understands these myofascial patterns - and nobody can unless you experience what I'm talking about. I say screw that, we all need to learn from each other and I am a firm believer in a holistic perspective to health now, having viscerally experienced the benefits brought about from understanding the root cause thanks to what you've been describing and treating it thanks to the exercises you demonstrate. I wish I could buy you lunch or something...I am not joking when I say my life would have been in ruins had I not discovered these concepts. Thanks so much Conor, and I'll be advocating for more open-mindedness across healthcare professions moving forward. You can be sure that people won't dare speak negatively of PRI in my presence from now on!
Hello Adam, My health condition is exactly what you have described and I have also herniated disc. I want to know if these exercises solved your discomfort permanently. Thank you for your answer
Almost exact same case to both of you. I was blown off for years by physios and doctors while being in chronic pain. At times after a long day,I'd be on fire and low-key wishing for it all to end. I'm Immensely grateful to Connor posting these gems on assymetry positions as those symptoms are mostly gone now. Hoping it's the same for both of y'all!
@@Hikmetkarademir I have the same, what seems to help me the most is going to the gym and training unilaterally. Only one arm or leg at a time and really focus on doing every repetition perfectly with not too much weight so i can do exercises exactly the same on both sides. 3 sets for 15 repetitions slow and controlled. No exercises with a barbell or both legs doing the same thing (no squat, deadlift, etcetc) only dumbells if i wanna do bench press for example and so on, make sure your body cannot cheat because cheating(compensation) is how we got here in the first place
Conor this is brilliant. You clearly understand the pattern and your passion for explaining the mechanics is truly appreciated. Your language, approach and delivery are perfect, please keep doing what you are doing 🙏
I watched the hips lateral tilt video yesterday and followed the article to see what type of pattern I was in. All the tests pointed towards LEFT AIC. I did a few of the exercises and immediately had relief in both my hips and shoulders. For years I've felt twist and had both hip and shoulder pain. This video also confirmed that I'm a left aic and right bc pattern. Thank you so much for the videos and in-depth articles that can be easily followed.
@@conorharris I’m trying to figure out if I’m in a Right BC or Left AIC pattern?! All of my tension is in my Right side; tight Right Psoas, Right ITB, Right TFL, Right Ql, and Right Chest/Scalenes. What pattern would this lean towards? Any assistance you can provide is appreciated!
You sir, are a lifesaver. Spent nearly a year with this issue trying to pinpoint it and finding answers like anterior pelvic tilt, etc. I even thought I'd destroyed my liver due to covid drinking! Thank you so much
Thank you, I've been practicing self release for 10 years and this presentation was very helpful. I thought I had piroformis syndrome starting years ago, then I self diagnosed an SI joint problem, now I see that the pain pattern matches what you are explaining here.
What ever position youre in, round your left lower back, try bringing your right knee forward and left knee back (while keeping a relaxed and rounded left lower back) relax your jaw and your tongue (especially the back of your tongue), try having your whole head on the left side of your body turning (looking) right. Not an expert but this has worked for me.
I have been doing pri for about a year following neal, zack, and even Ron. But i must say it took me MONTHS to Understand them.. doing them same techniques with your explanation have worked so Much better … thank you! You have a gift!
I have been training the Left AIC and the Right BC Pattern for 2 days. There is already a change in my posture. I will stick with it with confidence. THANKS🎉🎉🎉
Please, keep making this series.. 🙏😇. You always explain everything so clearly, and take the time to put everything together in a format that's concise, to the point, and with many great after thoughts. Thank you 😁
Finally i have find the root cause of my pain and discomfort. I've started today with the left aic exercise and now I've found out why my right shoulder miss a ton of intrarotation. Keep up the good work.
I’ve actually worked with a certified PRI therapist in Omaha, NE to help fix right SI joint pain due to the left AIC pattern, which I did fix. Now I have some left shoulder blade, left neck and trap pain. I just wanted to say you do a great job of explaining this, keep up the great work. For anyone else wondering or suffering, PRI works.
Hi Connor , For many years I was unable to progress on pull ups, I have always felt somewhat uneven during the motion, the same case with barbell squats. Then I discovered that it originates from the right BC pattern, I am a textbook example. Really need to fix this issue. Thanks for your video
3:30 my goodness the mystery of what’s been happening to me the past 6-8 months has never been more accurately articulated.. going to keep watching but had to stop to comment because no other PT has picked up on this!
I think I have way more of the symptoms described on the right rather than the left. My left side feels pretty good, but my right feels exactly as you described
Thank you Conor, really nice content you are putting out there. I'm from Brazil, there are no PRI professionals here, so thanks to your content and many others I'm able to do those exercises by myself at home. I'm stuck in this left aic pattern feeling pain in my right scapula area and tightness in the left side of my neck. I also lift weights and hope to feel better soon.
@Michel B salve irmao, então não consegui implementar uma rotina desses exercícios com consistência ainda... mas acredito que com consistência melhore muito....tenta fazer o básico bem feito e ve se te ajuda.. as vezes que consegui fazer por um tempo ajudou sim...
Thanks for putting out some dope ass videos! I've gone to multiple chiropractors and have asked for corrective exercises and they all just tell me to stretch my right glute and that's it! Thanks for putting this out, I'm planning to take your class in the future
I am a powerlifter with a very visible pelvic tilt towards the right side. It always gives me issues with right glute activation and results in piriformis pain. I hope these exercises help improve my condition
Great stuff! Just went to a person trained in Postural Restoration Therapy the other day and he gave me some exercises for Left AIC pattern in the pelvis. Was wondering if it is alright to start these exercises right along with pelvis exercises or if needed to do the pelvis was solely at first? Great content ad love the science behind it! As someone who likes to be very active and has dealt with these issues for several years, I really, really appreciate the content! Thanks again for your help!
Conor, I read that the Right BC pattern usually manifests from an existing Left AIC pattern. Therefore, should I do the exercises/stretches/motions etc that target both "conditions"? Thank you for your work.
Im so happy I found your video I have exactly this chest muscles like described rib cage but it goes all the way down to my leg and ass muscles too. Also cant see my lat right but I can left even my entire back muscles on one side seem much smaller. For me its very visible even with clothing on would really like to correct it.
Accompanied by weaker glutes(?) (bottocks and thigh) on the left side? Like your weight settles at some balance on your left toes, whereas on your right side, your weight is hitched at the hip bone (counterbalanced by the spine and right knee) and rested at the base of your feet (not toes).
Thanks Conor I haven't seen such useful video until I found your channel. I have chronic lower back pain over 10 years and tried different ways to fix it but fail. Your teaching is systematic and insightful. After self assessment, I believe Im the left AIC pattern. I would like to know that those corrective exercises you taught are suitable if I have a 15 degree scoliosis (thoracic curve and apex on the right)
Hello Conor, thank you for the video, as a Weightlifting coach I'm finding your videos fascinating. Do you think this right BC pattern could be responsible for a asymmetric front rack position for cleans / front squats? I.e. barbell only resting on one clavicle?
Wow, so much helpful information. 😮❤ As I'm suffering from scoliosis - and everything you mentioned in the video above - I also suffer from uneven clavicles. Do you have any suggestions for that? I also have pectus excavatum.
Hi Conor, I have a left bc pattern (inner rotation) and have all of the symptoms you described. I finally found what I was looking for, thank you again. One question: My left shoe is more "worn" on the heel, does that mean a "left bc pattern"? Best regards from germany.
I love your videos Conor. I'm am a 69 yr old female diagnosed with moderate s curve scoliosis 3 yrs ago. I have a high right hip AND high right shoulder with right thorasic rotation and left translation in my posture when walking. I know this is not usual and Im getting confused as to which exercises would be helpful. Can you recommend anything??
Madness, I've watched many vids on this subject and didn't associate what I feel at times in my ribs with the overall problem. Unmistakable compressed feeling, I'm an idiot! Could one of the knock-on effects of it be rib dislocation? The osteo I see often finds a few of mine so, could be coincidence but I'm seeing this now with fresh eyes. Thanks so much for these vids, I'm staying tuned.
Hey Conor, I'm a bit confused about the muscular positions. I'm having tensed up left lumbar muscles (left erector is more developed), although my upper body is more tilted to the left rather than the right. Is this generally more typical for Right BC pattern or Left AIC?
@ConorHaris will these exercises help with the bottom part of the shoulder blade to stop protruding out on your back? I have this issue now, and it is starting to hurt really bad..
Hi Conor. What if I’m experiencing a mix of symptoms? Just to let you know - compressed and lower left shoulder and expanded right (opposite of right BC pattern) - visible higher right rib flair - forwarder right hip (better in the flexion test, as much as the left leg is better in the leg raise). - flat left foot. Gotta say that all these considerations, besides being visible to the naked eye, come from the matching of all test BC and AIC tests you provided in the videos. Hope you got an answer for this. I’ve been struggling with these issues for years now. Thanks in advance
Hey, this would indicate that you have additional compensations on top of left aic. Check out his what to do if you dont fit the left aic video. But also if i was you i would focus on excercises that help achieve neutrality on both sides like 90 90 hip lift, pronation drills for each foot. After doing that check your measurements again. But yeah this shit sucks but IS FIXABLE, dont givw up
I've felt imbalanced for ages, and its affecting even how i walk, or just feel when breathing, but for some reason I FELT like my right shoulder was higher, but today I checked and it looks like it's lower. It seems I have this left aic right bc pattern, but basically all muscle tightness is on ky right side.
@conorharris Hi Conor, thanks for your videos. They give me hope. A quick question about your saying "can't get somewhere when you're already there". Like the right shoulder is already internally rotated so internal rotation is limited. Makes sense. But in your video about the left aic you for example say that the right side of the pelvic is in internal rotation (if I remember correctly). But still the straight leg raise (standing for internal rotation movement) on the right side is supposed to be better (because of the already existing internal rotation of the pelvic being in a left aic pattern). Why is that so? If the right side is already in internal rotation shouldn't you have bad internal rotation measurements cause "you're already there"? Appreciate your answer! Thx!
Thanks Connor. Really appreciate your clear demonstrations & explanations. I too first came to you through PRI & Neil. One issue I have, & I don't think has been specifically addressed not just by you, is a raised (& slightly forward)right sterno- clavicular joint. Is this a cause or an affect? And how does this affect, or is affected by the general left sided pattern?
It could, but like I've mentioned to others, I put more stock on what the assessments tell me than visual apperance. If you want to know how to interpret them I have an upper body exercise selection webinar that should help a lot.
@@conorharris Thanks Conor(one 'n' this time). I'll have a look at that webinar. I guess that's the risk in trying to self-diagnose. Keep up the good work.
I have the exact same thing. One day last fall (following months of twisting and pain) I woke with the medial end of my right clavicle protruding anteriorly. The left clavicle disappeared. I was seeing PT at the time and he blamed it on being right handed despite the acute onset paired with significant rotation. I knew it was more than that, and have spent a year trying to correct these issues. These videos are the best I have seen. Thank you for posting them.
Hey thanks so much for the great and informative video. I was wondering if it's possible to have almost this exact right BC pattern (weak R low trap, R scapular protraction, tighter R pec, obliques and QL, elevated R pelvis) with some differentiations, ie: my right shoulder is higher than left. Would that affect how it's treated? I saw your other video about uneven shoulders and how it relates to this but I'm a bit still unclear on what to do. z
Mr coror thanks for your detailed information but a question can i have right PC without having left AIC if so the case i recently developed right pc when i checked if i have uneven hips Infront of mirror my hips seemed levelled but my shoulders still seemed uneven my right shoulder seemed lower and slightly curved forward sometimes my left upper trap seems thicker and higher
I have all these issues to a tee, same with the pelvis and lower body tests. It's come to the point where my left meniscus is torn medially, right glutes don't want to fire, knots galore in my right lat and behind shoulder blades, poor shoulder mobility, rounded shoulders..all the above. I want to keep training in the gym.. are there certain exercises to avoid? Should I focus on unilateral stuff for a while before bilateral movements? Are there certain exercises I can take advantage of? Your help is very much appreciated!
Is it possible to have “left bc pattern”? I have literally exactly this but my right shoulder is higher and slightly forward. This also makes back exercises favor my right half and my middle lower back is significantly stronger on my right side. Thank you for your help.
CONOR WHERE ARE YOU LOCATED MY FRIEND! Had AN injury, and now I am totally twisted to the right, and I fall forward within 10 seconds walking. L literally just bought a walking stick to hold up the right side. I do your exercises for oblique torsion, Sadly, I can’t even do the leg lift extension. What do I buy lol.
I have seen you instuct having the book under left hand (seen in the article on right BC) or left knee like this video. Are they the same or what is the difference?
Could it make sense that a right BCP pattern could lead to pain in the inner bottom part of the right elbow during push movements? For one reason or another my right triceps long head is always twitching and in need of muscle release. It hurts at my tendon in my elbow connected to my triceps long head. Any help is much appreciated once again! Great content!
Yes, it could. Probably a situation where the distal humerus is doing something different and/or significantly opposing the action of the proximal forearm. Not uncommon, but I'd still want that right chest wall to expand. DM me on IG and I can link you a drill I think could help
How is the pec major an external rotator? It pulls the shoulder internal right, except when the shoulder is fixated. . Help me out on this one please 😅
Hi Connor great stuff! Just one question, should I also feel tighter left neck muscles(feeling of shortened in a way) if I have Right BC Pattern? Thanks a lot for these vids!
Hi Conor In your experience with the body being stuck in these patterns can it have an impact on medial ankle pain? I can’t jog any more as I have to much medial ankle pain (right ankle ) I also have pain and limited left shoulder rom

Could one of the knock-on effects of it be rib dislocation? The osteo I see often finds a few of mine so, could be coincidence but I'm seeing this now with fresh eyes. Thanks so much for these vids, I'm staying tuned.
Any thoughts as to how many reps etc for each? Thank you.
Excellent
I have a question: What happens to the neck in this position, and how would one go about fixing the asymmetris in the neck caused by this position
Thanks for so much useful content. Cant you make a video on Right TMCC pattern and right torsion please?
Hey Conor, I'm a bit confused about the muscular positions. I'm having tensed up left lumbar muscles (left erector is more developed), although my upper body is more tilted to the left rather than the right. Is this generally more typical for Right BC pattern or Left AIC?
Wow, this helped me so well. Thanks! Do you have advice for tennis elbow too?
@ConorHaris will these exercises help with the bottom part of the shoulder blade to stop protruding out on your back? I have this issue now, and it is starting to hurt really bad..
Should I do for both side?
Hi Conor. What if I’m experiencing a mix of symptoms? Just to let you know
- compressed and lower left shoulder and expanded right (opposite of right BC pattern)
- visible higher right rib flair
- forwarder right hip (better in the flexion test, as much as the left leg is better in the leg raise).
- flat left foot.
Gotta say that all these considerations, besides being visible to the naked eye, come from the matching of all test BC and AIC tests you provided in the videos.
Hope you got an answer for this. I’ve been struggling with these issues for years now.
Thanks in advance
Hey, this would indicate that you have additional compensations on top of left aic. Check out his what to do if you dont fit the left aic video. But also if i was you i would focus on excercises that help achieve neutrality on both sides like 90 90 hip lift, pronation drills for each foot. After doing that check your measurements again. But yeah this shit sucks but IS FIXABLE, dont givw up
I've felt imbalanced for ages, and its affecting even how i walk, or just feel when breathing, but for some reason I FELT like my right shoulder was higher, but today I checked and it looks like it's lower. It seems I have this left aic right bc pattern, but basically all muscle tightness is on ky right side.
3:52 Isn't the pec major an external rotator?
How often are you meant to be doing these exercises?
You aré the best ever men, so good, please keep going, im from Chiapas,Mexico. But i want your program so bad, can i get it?
Thanks Moi! Check out my mobility program on my website
@conorharris Hi Conor, thanks for your videos. They give me hope. A quick question about your saying "can't get somewhere when you're already there". Like the right shoulder is already internally rotated so internal rotation is limited. Makes sense. But in your video about the left aic you for example say that the right side of the pelvic is in internal rotation (if I remember correctly). But still the straight leg raise (standing for internal rotation movement) on the right side is supposed to be better (because of the already existing internal rotation of the pelvic being in a left aic pattern). Why is that so? If the right side is already in internal rotation shouldn't you have bad internal rotation measurements cause "you're already there"? Appreciate your answer! Thx!
Thanks Connor. Really appreciate your clear demonstrations & explanations. I too first came to you through PRI & Neil. One issue I have, & I don't think has been specifically addressed not just by you, is a raised (& slightly forward)right sterno- clavicular joint. Is this a cause or an affect? And how does this affect, or is affected by the general left sided pattern?
It could, but like I've mentioned to others, I put more stock on what the assessments tell me than visual apperance. If you want to know how to interpret them I have an upper body exercise selection webinar that should help a lot.
@@conorharris Thanks Conor(one 'n' this time). I'll have a look at that webinar. I guess that's the risk in trying to self-diagnose. Keep up the good work.
I have the exact same thing. One day last fall (following months of twisting and pain) I woke with the medial end of my right clavicle protruding anteriorly. The left clavicle disappeared. I was seeing PT at the time and he blamed it on being right handed despite the acute onset paired with significant rotation. I knew it was more than that, and have spent a year trying to correct these issues. These videos are the best I have seen. Thank you for posting them.
would you suggest fixing the AIC pattern first?
I noticed I fall right back into the pattern after a few hours of sitting
Make a video about the cervical part too, Love from india.
R u Indian? Can you share your insta id, I want to make a community of indians who r suffering from postural issues and knows about pri
Hey thanks so much for the great and informative video. I was wondering if it's possible to have almost this exact right BC pattern (weak R low trap, R scapular protraction, tighter R pec, obliques and QL, elevated R pelvis) with some differentiations, ie: my right shoulder is higher than left. Would that affect how it's treated? I saw your other video about uneven shoulders and how it relates to this but I'm a bit still unclear on what to do. z
Upp
Nice thanks be blessed eith more knowledge
Thanks for watching!
Thanks 🙏 for the you hard work could you please make a video for PEC pattern thanks
I have the same request! 🙏 thanks again. PRI make my life way better! Maybe a tutorial for RTMCC pattern.
My anterior pelvic tilt/hip extension videos are the best content I have on that
Mr coror thanks for your detailed information but a question can i have right PC without having left AIC if so the case i recently developed right pc when i checked if i have uneven hips Infront of mirror my hips seemed levelled but my shoulders still seemed uneven my right shoulder seemed lower and slightly curved forward sometimes my left upper trap seems thicker and higher
Thanks
Thanks for the video,, what about the Right TMCC Pattern?( please do video for Right TMCC Pattern also)
I have all these issues to a tee, same with the pelvis and lower body tests. It's come to the point where my left meniscus is torn medially, right glutes don't want to fire, knots galore in my right lat and behind shoulder blades, poor shoulder mobility, rounded shoulders..all the above.
I want to keep training in the gym.. are there certain exercises to avoid? Should I focus on unilateral stuff for a while before bilateral movements? Are there certain exercises I can take advantage of? Your help is very much appreciated!
Is it possible to have “left bc pattern”? I have literally exactly this but my right shoulder is higher and slightly forward. This also makes back exercises favor my right half and my middle lower back is significantly stronger on my right side. Thank you for your help.
Thank u!!🙏
CONOR WHERE ARE YOU LOCATED MY FRIEND! Had AN injury, and now I am totally twisted to the right, and I fall forward within 10 seconds walking. L literally just bought a walking stick to hold up the right side. I do your exercises for oblique torsion, Sadly, I can’t even do the leg lift extension. What do I buy lol.
I have seen you instuct having the book under left hand (seen in the article on right BC) or left knee like this video. Are they the same or what is the difference?
Could it make sense that a right BCP pattern could lead to pain in the inner bottom part of the right elbow during push movements? For one reason or another my right triceps long head is always twitching and in need of muscle release. It hurts at my tendon in my elbow connected to my triceps long head. Any help is much appreciated once again! Great content!
Yes, it could. Probably a situation where the distal humerus is doing something different and/or significantly opposing the action of the proximal forearm. Not uncommon, but I'd still want that right chest wall to expand. DM me on IG and I can link you a drill I think could help
Hi Conor,
My chiro had put a shoe lift in orthotic under my right foot. Shouldn’t it be under my left foot since I’m heavy RBC?
I am still 21 .Can I able to fix left AIC right BC pattern? How days it takes to get normal. Please help
How is the pec major an external rotator? It pulls the shoulder internal right, except when the shoulder is fixated. . Help me out on this one please 😅
Hi Connor great stuff! Just one question, should I also feel tighter left neck muscles(feeling of shortened in a way) if I have Right BC Pattern? Thanks a lot for these vids!
Yeah i have that. My neck turns towards the night easily. But has a limiting feelings when turning to the left side
Hi Conor
In your experience with the body being stuck in these patterns can it have an impact on medial ankle pain? I can’t jog any more as I have to much medial ankle pain (right ankle ) I also have pain and limited left shoulder rom
