    Are you pinching your shoulder blades together during this? Where should you be feeling a stretch?

    • @OriginalStrengthSystem
      @OriginalStrengthSystem  9 месяцев назад +1

      I am not, but you can.
      As far as a stretch, IF you are tight you’ll feel it in the front of the shoulders or across the chest. If you’re not tight, you may not feel any stretch

    What's the equivalent for hips? Do you have any passive positions like the one in this video, that keep our hips in internal rotation, to counter the excessive ext rotation our hips always seem to be in? Thanks for this BTW.

    At 81 years I have always kept active and exercise regularly. I try to be conscious of posture but catching a side view I seem to have a forward neck alignment as it seems is not uncommon with ageing. So I have begun your recommended exercises but it would be helpful to know what kind of time frame we might expect for a noticeable improvement? I am also curious as to how the connection between palate and posture was found and why the rocking motion ? What led to these suggestions as being related to posture?

    • @OriginalStrengthSystem
      @OriginalStrengthSystem  4 года назад +5

      Hey Harry, I’ve written a few books about the connection to tongue, rocking, and posture. One book, probably the most thorough, is Pressing Reset: Original Strength Reloaded. BUT the short answer is rocking and tongue position are programmed into the nervous system before birth, they are our movement design. Rocking sets the curves of the spine and activates the vestibular system, reflexively sharpening all the postural muscles. Tongue position is connected to the vestibular system and the diaphragm. The diaphragm is also a spinal stabilizer and helps with posture. Everything in the body dances together.
      As for how long it takes, that’s up to the individual and their body. It’s about showing up every day, even if only for a little bit, just like we did when we were children. The differences can be felt and observed immediately in most, but the lasting change takes time and consistency.
      I hope this helps.

      @@OriginalStrengthSystem Thank you for your prompt response. I am in the habit of stretching, a bit of yoga every morning for about half an hour each day and using 6 kilo dumbells three times a week.. Taking in these simple exercises of yours would it be unreasonable to presume an observable benefit after, say, four weeks?

    • @OriginalStrengthSystem
      @OriginalStrengthSystem  4 года назад +1

      That sounds reasonable to me. I usually encourage people to give it 30 days and evaluate there experience and results

      Start here. Only move where you can and leave with your eyes. Don’t worry about where you cannot move but get really good at where you can move.

    I am guilty of limiting my UE extension during arm swing when enjoying my walks and hill climbing. But not anymore! 😃 I tell my patients about having a giraffe neck also, but not a giraffe chin. I often explain they have an imaginary string pulling the crown of their head towards the ceiling, but their chin is remaining neutral.

    "soft" techniques like this one usually don't do much, most people spends all day being in an incorrect shoulder posture, and being 4 minutes in the correct one will do next to nothing.
    The only thing that I have found that works, is agressive stretching like hanging from a bar (dead hang), where the pectoral muscles have no other choice but to stretch.

    • @OriginalStrengthSystem
      @OriginalStrengthSystem  Год назад +3

      Soft techniques can work depending on frequency, intention, time, and patience. I’ve seen it happen. Hanging is wonderful, though I wouldn’t call it aggressive. I suppose it could be. Thank you for sharing.

    • @victorcotu
      @victorcotu Год назад

      @@OriginalStrengthSystem Yes, it may work with some people, it depends a lot on how bad the shoulder posture is to begin with, and how much effort you put into doing posture correction exercises.
      I'm probably talking more about impatient people like me, that will get bored very fast, and not be consistent enough. Bar hanging is more like a shock and awe strategy.
      A good thing about the technique in this video, compared to others, is that you can maintain the posture for quite some time and relax.

      @OriginalStrengthSystem  4 года назад +2

      If you feel pain, don’t move into that territory. Move where you can without pain. Even if it’s only an inch of range of motion, it is still good motion. You can also simply move your eyes up and down as well - this still has huge benefit. I hope this helps!

      Original Strength what is your opinion on aesthetics? I know you’re very much on the functional end of the spectrum of course.
      By the way I’m doing all your rocking stretches every day and I’m finally starting to loosen up. First time ever.

    • @OriginalStrengthSystem
      @OriginalStrengthSystem  4 года назад +1

      I am not sure what you mean but I do not think there’s anything wrong with enjoying one’s body and enjoying how it looks. Having said that, I think that joy Has to be from within and we have to find a way to love ourselves simply as we are. to see the beauty that we are. So we can truly enjoy ourselves. But again, there’s nothing wrong with enjoying our form, or shape, or size, whatever. It’s all a gift.
      I have spent a great deal of my life chasing aesthetics . I think I am now at the point where I am willing to see if they will chase me.
      So glad to hear about your rocking progress!

    • @leepretorius4869
      @leepretorius4869 4 года назад

      Original Strength wow thanks for taking the time to respond.
      I feel like functional and aesthetic must logically be on different ends of the spectrum in terms of primary goal for activity, because they will lead to different priorities.
      For example the male physique should have a golden ratio between waist and shoulders to have a nice V taper, but a person would be hard pressed to say that this is functionally superior than narrow shoulders and a wide waist.
      Steve Reeves is the Ultimate standard for aesthetics for me and he had mathematical formulas for bone to muscle size for being in proportion. Even he didn’t achieve it.
      My ITB has been reduced from the rocking and so squatting is not so awkward for me anymore.

    Your movement snax are definitely better than all coach potato snax. What I also like to restore ma shoulder is a variation of circle rock. I called it "The Infinity Rock". Make this a sense? Probably it reveales to you logically. You just do, instead of a complete circle rock, two half circle rock that look like an infinity. What do you think?

    • @OriginalStrengthSystem
      @OriginalStrengthSystem  4 года назад +1

      You could be stretching nerves or compressing them.Have you modified where you put your hands, how far back behind you? Have you modified the amount of rotation? I guess I'm asking have you discovered where you can be without the tingling? That might be the best place, if such a place exist.
