This guy is sharing generously priceless content. I managed to fix a 4 years knee injury doing the hip stabilizing exercise that he always recommends. Also his hip load opening exercise is very helpful. I will give a go to all his other stuff. His short videos are by far the informative, helpful and effective than hours at PT or chiropractor.
Most PT's don't know squat (ha). Around here anyway. Three exercises and some ice and they think they're geniuses. The competency is rather laughable when compared to others with comprehensive knowledge. As for chiropractors, few are helpful long term. Bones go where muscles tell them to so neglecting to train muscles and address those issues isn't going to provide long term relief which, insures that people keep coming back.The good ones are complementary to everything else one is doing. Glad that your needs improved for you and that you were able to achieve resolution.
For all the terrible things the internet has done to us and our culture; I'm always grateful for the way it's given all of us nearly free access to the sort of high quality information and guidance that used to be reserved for people willing and able to shell out hundreds of dollars an hour for personal coaches, trainers, etc. This channel in particular is very helpful.
My work is done standing and I like to move, so desks don’t work well for me. I’ve found that sitting on varying pillows at my coffee table and in front of my sofa as my back rest works for me. This won’t work for a lot of people, but as more people work from home, I imagine that many have modified how they do it. Strengthening core, flexors and back has naturally made better posture feel better. Thx for all the great vids.
Hlo sir i adore u a lot😍❣❣❣luv frm india...u hlpd me a lot in easing my pain frm last 6 7 yrs i had knee pain weak hip muscles tightness in body nd pain in legs while doing squats...but by just doing all exrrcise fr knee pain hip opning its now far btter than before but nt completely plz make video on how to fix hip nd knee pain as whenevr i do side leg raise or kick it worsen my pain also i got pain in my ribs tooo ..nd in betweeen hip bones plus side hips too wth this side leg raise evn though i do it crctly...how to cure it plz hlp i need it...its a humble request as dr.couldnt do anythng🙏🙏🙏thnku💕🙏
does sitting a lot for 10+ hours a day stiffen up my upper and mid back with bad posture ? my back has been really stiff and discomforting? i workout and do back workouts so why do i feel like this?
Sorry but I do not agree with you on this one @Squat University. To fix this forwarded bent posture you need to strengthen the muscle that allow bending backwardly your spine : Longissimus dorsi, spinal dorsi, semi-spinal dorsi. First stretch advised can help gain a bit of ROM but if the muscle don't hold, you will just fall back once standing. Facial pull with band targets : rhomboid, trapèze, rear delt and friends but nothing to see with spine extensors quoted above. Farmer walks are working in frontal plan not in median plan. You should have propose exercice like superman, back extension with lumbar bench (focused on the upper part of the movement, keep lombar spine well locked). Even front squat is super good, to avoid to drop the bar in the lower position keeping elbows up is almost recruiting only the muscle we need ! See you forward, Keep going I love your work, I'm a bit rude but I try to be as factual and constructive as I can, for the next video to be the best ! Regards,
I did the movement at 1:40, i was left with alot of pain and tightness in my upper back, aswell as tiredness, brainfog and even a little blurryer vision.
@@Skretting91 Strange. Blury vision and brainfog seems like an odd reaction from this movement. If it were a deadlift or squat then wouldn't be such a surprise. Do you use any supplements that contain stimulants?
@@cl3935 No stimulants. I also get the blurry vision with brainfog whenever i try to benchpress, OHP or anything of the sort. I get clicking in my front shoulder and then all hell is loose. It takes up to a week for me to recover from the symptoms i get.
Do you do initial assessments of people if a video is sent to you? If not, can you recommend someone nearby who can help with squat issues? I had a low back injury from the military 8-9 years ago, and I believe I have imbalances as a result of it that no one can seem to figure out.
Please Aaron, can you do a video regarding the Left AIC pattern topic? ITS A really complex topic which not that many Physical therapists know about. And theres not that much information around here.
Hi, I am having head heaviness(back and side of the head) and sometimes pain since last 3-4 years. It has affected most of my everyday activities. I am a college student and spend most of the time in front of my laptop. I have tried neuro and physiotherapy for quite some time but nothing is helping me and my head heaviness is remaining as it is. If I press my traps then the entire heaviness disappears, it also feels light if a support my head by keeping my arm for support . Can you please tell me what I can do preferably at home to heal this completely? I'll be really grateful. Thanks
Thank you so much for the videos that you make! I have managed to make significant progress with my piriformis syndrome, fix some shoulder issues and get rid of my knee pain. Turns out that doing bodybuilding incorrectly for over a decade without any stretching/mobility work nor walking has left my body quite screwed up lol. I do however still suffer from my thoraic spine going sideways and I cannot figure out what to do. I tried stretching my lats and pecs but no results so far. Is there any advice you could share? My body is perfectly fine and symetrical until it reaches around the t5-t6 vertebrae at which point it shifts to the right significantly, causing me huge imbalances in my upper body. I went to so many experts and none of them managed to help. Is there any hope?
Do you have a recommended reading list for athletes beyond your own book? I see a lot of recommendations online from "gray's anatomy" to "becoming a supple leopard", are there any books you would recommend to read, or texts that you yourself use for reference?
I have a rotoscoliosis in my lumbar area and I have a rotation in my shoulders that makes them go forward, I’ve been bumped out because lately I’ve been finding myself with pain on my back because all of this, do you have any exercises to help with this?
When I do the first exercise I feel lots of tension in my right shoulder. I've always had my right shoulder be less flexible than my left and I think this has caused me lots of pain over the years. Will this exercise help with shoulder?
Please help I have duck feet due to horrible limited ankle dorsiflection I just can’t get my squat right The only comfortable squat I do is the wide squat 😢 please respond
Hi Aron big fan from Isreal, i recently had an Achilles tendon lengthening (I had a short one for 23 years without knowing until I started to train ) is there any chance I can make video call with u (payment ) to help me with my rehab . I love ur content I think u are a fifty to all of ass. I love ur channel but I don’t see the hard “fix “ it’s always a mobility or stability issue it’s not like an acl tear or Achilles tendon tear . And I know u have a lots of knowledge but I can’t see it on ur channel.
You say to do the farmer walks with half of your body weight, but your example shows you doing it with 66lbs. I can’t imagine you’re 130 lbs, so I just want to verify a good starting weight
Despite overwhelming evidence contrary to this, a video on "good" VS " bad" posture. Cute replies to Instagram go on the likes of " there's no one good posture but we can't disregard posture all together". But here they just double down on ONLY STRAIGHT BACK GOOD. interesting, Cute.
Sorry but this is not true. Posture is mainly from genetics, mood and very individuel from person to person. Posture is a frequent topic of discussion for patients, clinicians, the media, and society. A common belief is that spinal pain is caused by sitting, standing, or bending “incorrectly.” Despite the absence of strong evidence to support these common beliefs, a large posture industry has flourished, with many interventions and products claiming to “correct” posture and prevent pain. Unfortunately, many health care professionals provide advice in line with this non-evidence-based perspective" "The iatrogenic nature of low back pain is a reminder of the clinician’s responsibility to be mindful of the language we use. Advice given by clinicians can lead to fear and encourage hypervigilance. Here are some examples." "1. There is no single “correct” posture. Despite common posture beliefs, there is no strong evidence that one optimal posture exists or that avoiding “incorrect” postures will prevent back pain. 2. Differences in postures are a fact of life. There are natural variations in spinal curvatures, and there is no single spinal curvature strongly associated with pain. Pain should not be attributed to relatively “normal” variations. 3. Posture reflects beliefs and mood. Posture can offer insights into a person’s emotions, thoughts, and body image. Some postures are adopted as a protective strategy and may reflect concerns regarding body vulnerability. Understanding reasons behind preferred postures can be useful. 4. It is safe to adopt more comfortable postures. Comfortable postures vary between individuals. Exploring different postures, including those frequently avoided, and changing habitual postures may provide symptom relief. 5. The spine is robust and can be trusted. The spine is a robust, adaptable structure capable of safely moving and loading in a variety of postures. Common warnings to protect the spine are not necessary and can lead to fear. 6. Sitting is not dangerous. Sitting down for more than 30 minutes in one position is not dangerous, nor should it always be avoided. However, moving and changing position can be helpful, and being physically active is important for your health. 7. One size does not fit all. Postural and movement screening does not prevent pain in the workplace. Preferred lifting styles are influenced by the naturally varying spinal curvatures, and advice to adopt a specific posture or to brace the core is not evidence based."

The fuck are you talking about?? You're so wrong. That's like saying lifting weights doesn't promote muscle growth. Enjoy your terrible posture and mobility difficulties later in life. You're contradicting yourself in your own post.

So is it ok to do one arm walk with weights or not? Couldn’t understand.

I recently did a 8k suitcase carry with a 12 kg Kettlebell, focusing on keeping the chest up. Sometimes it‘s as simple as that.

Thank you very much but I need to know for the last exercise is there an slternative that can be done in a cramped space like in an spartment.
I did the movement at 1:40, i was left with alot of pain and tightness in my upper back, aswell as tiredness, brainfog and even a little blurryer vision.
If that were me i'd be getting full bloodwork done
@@cl3935 ive had many bloodworks, mri's, spinal puncture, ultrasounds. All fine
@@Skretting91 Strange. Blury vision and brainfog seems like an odd reaction from this movement. If it were a deadlift or squat then wouldn't be such a surprise. Do you use any supplements that contain stimulants?

Thoracic Outlet syndrome ?

Please where is the labrum fix vide
Where is the reverse plank in this video?
Do you have a video for “upper crossed syndrome”?
Is there a way to do the first stretch/exercise sitting or standing at a desk?
Would you recommend a physio/sports therapist in London?
Please Aaron, can you do a video regarding the Left AIC pattern topic? ITS A really complex topic which not that many Physical therapists know about. And theres not that much information around here.

It's not the back muscles that need to be stretched

Maybe scapula Wing
