This was very informative and I think I can finally start making progress and exactly what I needed. My external shoulder rotation is so limited as well as compressed rib cage and weak inhalation. Now I’m already feeling better from these exercises cause I can now active my front hip more rather then the back
It has been at least 3 years of extreme pain suffering. I seen chiropractors, osteopaths, massage therapist, acupuncturists physiotherapist. They all took my money and I am still the same with extreme pain.
Wow! Didn't even realize I wasn't breathing fully, after I did this, my breath feels freer and so does my neck and throat! Definitely a difference between my right arm and left arm on the 90 degree reach too. Very well described and outlined, easy to follow and helpful, thank you!
These exercises have done more for my left shoulder impingement than stuff I’ve been trying for years. Hoping if I continue it’ll finally be back to normal.
@@vaughny7258 shoulder is doing well. Prone breathing is great for shoulder and lower back. Breathing with reach also seems to help. I’ve combined traditional shoulder mobility with breathing exercises like the ones you see here and see tremendous benefit. A lot of my issues stem from my left trap creeping up and noticing this and doing exercises to keep it down seems to help a lot.
Wow! You are the man. All of these so-called physical therapists I have seen are clueless yet get paid big dollars. You solve things not only far more effectively but with much less effort from the person being treated. Congrats to you, man! I hope all the greater success for you in the near future.
A few years ago, I developed rounded shoulders. It happened so quickly that it felt like one day I had a straight and "flat" upper back with aligned shoulders and the next day everything was gone. I remember seeing myself in the mirror and feeling so shocked. Even today I don't know how everything could have changed so quickly and that much. It probably didn't happen in a day (although I does feel to me that it happened in a few days only), but I can tell for sure that it changed in less than a month. I went to a dance club where we did lots of strengthening exercises which I was not used to, and I think that's where something might have triggered my issue. But I will never know... Anyway, after that I tried to seek for help, especially to a postural physiotherapist. Everytime I went there were improvements in my posture, but it was little and by the time I went to see him again, it was back to the way it was. Another woman (who was also a postural therapist, using the same method as the other one) told me that this kind of issues can appear very quickly (like in my case where it felt rather sudden) but that it can be hard or even impossible to make it change to its previous state. I know that you can't see me and my explanations might not help you visualize my posture, but I wonder if you have any opinion on all that. Thank you!
Hey Marine, Thank you for commenting. i'm sorry to hear that you have been dealing with this. While I can't make a specific diagnosis/recommendation, i will say that the human body is quite adaptable, so focusing on activities that increase the available movement you have can have a favorable impact on posture. The key IMO is to choose activities that enhance available motion, then build fitness over time to sustain. I hope that helps. Best of luck on your journey!
@@ZacCupplesPT okay thanks. So would what you're presenting in this video be good for me ? Or do you have other suggestions of exercises? And what do you mean by "activities that increase available movement" ?
@@Marine-yl5gd I can't make a recommendation without seeing you, as I do not know what would work best otherwise. Activities that increase available movement - If you have movement restrictions, we want to do things to improve that
great video!! its some kind of funny i choose the position i need for more mobility as my sleeping position.maybe thats why after wake up my shoulder has a better position lime at daytime😂😂
I feel attacked with the World of Warcraft example, but hands down, i did stop it a year ago, now i do have abs muschle mass etc, started studying biology so that i may start med school. But i laughed so hard when u came up with the example. I have acl tear (partial) but really serious. It needs complete replacement. I self diagnosed myself with my left shoulder turning outside, while my right is normal a or a bit inside. Which means i can stretch one more than the other which is clearly a problem, in posture and in assimetric chest muschle building, due to negative states of like a dumbell bench. Also i have pelvic tilt (abdomen assimetry in the lover part, like it’s tilted right, cause u see more of my obliques on the left and less on the right, not that much difference but still) is guess due to shoulder problem, and some breathing, cause i can see my right lung come out more visibly than the left in a standing vacim breathing.
Hi Zac, you know many strategies to change the chape of the ribcage. What do you think of including the following strategie when overall expansion of the ribcage - or in a certain area - is the goal. 1. Inhale by descending / contracting the diaphragm. 2. Let the diaphragm ascend as if you exhale, but don't let any air come out of the mouth or nose. As the air has to go somewhere, it encourages expansion of the ribcage. ?
So if you did this, the diaphragm can't fully descend. This is similar to a valsalva maneuver, which increases intrabdominal/thoracic pressure. Higher pressure = less increasing mobility
Awesome man, 😎💯💥, Can you do similar video on "pot belly"? as there is recently a general consensus that "POT BELLY THOUGH LOT OF TIMES VISCERAL FAT IS INVOLVED TOO, IT HAS A LOT TO DO WITH BREATHING STRATEGY, esp not being able to achieve full exhale. I really appreciate the work you are doing. 🙏
Hi Zack, so I do have a question. How should a person with a mild scheurmann’s kyphosis start about improving her posture. I mean, should I first focus on fixing my breathing and posture, and then on my CP’s time. I am asking this question because when I perform relaxed supine lying breathing that is fine, however when I try to perform the same drill in a seated position I experience groin pain, and I quite easily lose control over my breath (I need to take a deep breath, or my breathing becomes very chaotic). I am just wondering what should come first. Working on breathing mechanics (not CO2 tolerance) and improving my posture utilizing other exercises or rather focusing on CO2 tolerance should be the main focus?
Hey zac, great great post! Can we say that the sway back is an aftermath of the anterior pelvic tilt? Like anterior pelvic tilt is concentric anteriorly in the pelvic and in the lower back like first compensatory mechanism, and as a secondary compensation the posterior side of pelvic goes concentric and push it forward. And in the thoracic secondary compensation is concentric anteriorly to depress the ribgace &/ thoracic? If not can you explain the relation between them?
Thanks Zac. Very informative as always. I am just a bit confused about the restoration of humeral internal rotation. I understand that when the scapula rotates externally during shoulder flexion it put the humerus in a position of internal rotation (and we consciously internally rotate the humerus to deepen the stretch). But I thought that kind movement can cause shoulder impingement and we should externally rotate during shoulder flexion?
There is ER always occurring as you go overhead. The rate at the mid zone of flexion just has the scap going “ahead” of the humerus a bit. Meaning there is relative humeral IR from an ER position, avoiding impingement. Does that clarify?
Thanks Zac Cupples for clarifying. I understand that there is humeral IR from a ER position (when the scapula is in the shoulder mid flexion ) but when we point the Olecranon out, don’t we put the humerus in a IR rotation (deepen humeral IR) reducing subacromial space?
@@tkdkpop Yes. You will also oftentimes abduct away from midline to fully go overhead. Think about exercises like overhead presses, snatch, clean and jerk. Olecranon points out for all of those, yet not everyone gets impingement from those exercises. Body will find a way (unless it doesn't LOL). In the case of the armbar exercise, you aren't IR'ing above 90 degrees, so generally a safe bet.
Thank you so much for clarifying Zac Cupples . I was sticking on some « rules » like always externally rotating the arm when going overhead. You bring a more nuanced approach. Thanks again
Thank you for this, I will definitely add this to my routine. In case you see this, if only one shoulder is internally rotated do I only do the exercice on the side that is internally rotated or both sides? My whole issue seems to be the torso/ribcage twisted to the right while the pelvis is twisted towards to left. I say "seems" because I could never say with 100% certainty and physios/kins I visited always repeat the same thing, nobody is perfectly symmetrical. I first noticed because of uneven pec development and my right arm constantly rubbing against my right pec. My left pec is defined and full while the right pec looks more flat and when I flex it just doesn't feel right (flexes more in the upper chest area, but on the left side the whole pec flexes normally from the bottom towards the top). Thanks again for the video, it gives me some hope.
This is my favorite new youtube channel by far. Not sure if you are aware of this but the audio seems to cut out at 24:12 - 26:00 and only the background music is playing. Unfortunately your verbal instructions really make sure I am doing the drill properly!

The second prone 3 month is AMAZING , I cannot state how good this is making my shoulders feel . couple question ? 1 howcome your holding out on me with these execises :) ? 2 whats with the 70s porno music ?
If not the pecs, then what muscles should we use for the pumphandle arm extension exercises, or other movements where we're supposed to be feeling extension through the scaps? You use a lot of these kinds of exercises on your channel, and when I'm able to do them with good form they're great, but a lot of the time I end up getting pec activity, since I don't really know what other muscles I should be using to perform the motions. I'd really appreciate some input!
Hi there, I can't tell which I have for rib/shoulder movement. It all just seems to be off. My shoulders are extremely internally rotated, and when I go to extend my arm overhead, I cannot do it without anteriorly expanding my ribcage as well. I have thoracic scoliosis and recently a rib in my right side is preventing me from finding comfort in an thoracic extension. I'm not sure where to start. I'm a yoga teacher and massage therapist, and I'm just at a loss. Do you book online appts? I need some guidance.

Is it possible for an anterior thorax tilt to appear (to the untrained eye) as if it were a posterior thorax tilt due to arching over the lower back and/or loss of ZoA? I am trying to figure out of my tilt is actually anterior or posterior because it looks like a posterior in the mirror but my pump handle is tight/sore.
@@ZacCupplesPT I am not sure if my subclavius is short or long, I just know it's very tight. I know I am in the left aic right bc pattern from my PRI provider. Is the right subclavius in a short or long position in the left aic right bc pattern?

I get such good results for people with techniques that you say don't work - but, you go ahead and follow these theories of what works and doesn't work. Have you ever done a research project/study? If you have, then you know that statistics can be manipulated. Everyone learning how to do research, also learns how it can be manipulated with statistical formulas. Part of research training, is looking at research articles that have been printed in peer-review Journals. You would think if its in one of these Journals then they are safe to take as fact. Wrong! Any, quality study will also include what further needs to be studied before blanketly accepting their hypothesis that they feel their study has proven true. The more articles that are done from different nuances/ perspectives, that are then peer-reviewed, the better the conclusion they have reached, can be believed. If you take a balanced approach, you won't be thoroughly embarrassed in 20 or 30 years, or sooner. I'm just asking, please, don't condemn, but suggest options, instead, based on recent research. Don't try to make yourself look better, by condemning others, unless you have the a lot of research to back it up.
What evidence do you have that this "actually works?" In my experience, all these bizarre PRI exercises seem very hypothetical, based on "biomechanics," but I have yet to come across anybody that has achieved tangible results from them. Have you personally seen people achieve significant structural improvements from these exercises? Cheers.
