I have my @neurocoffe, do you have yours for today’s
Q & A
From Eli:
I’m having a bit of shoulder issue. When I press overhead either with a dumbbell, barbell, or kettlebell, I get a pinching in my shoulder. When I reach overhead, I don’t seem to get it at all. Is there something that I can do for this? If you’re feeling this same kind of thing yourself, I’ve included a “gym fix” in the discussion.
My @neurocoffee is in hand and here’s this morning’s Q&A with a little bit of long-term athletic development feel to it.
From Nate:
I work do a lot of work with athletes in the age groups of 11-25 and I was curious if you think ISA compensations take time to manifest and therefore hard to detect in younger or prepubesent people? As a follow up to this question do you feel that it would be smart to expose young and/or inexperienced athletes to the entire spectrum of the propulsion arc so they don’t slip to far into inhale or exhale strategies?
I have @neurocoffee in hand and hope you have yours for today’s Q & A.
From Domen:
What about people that are presenting with excessive straight leg raise (120°) and have limitation in hip IR but sufficient ER? Could it be that this person has an inhaled pelvis with anterior orientation which would still allow such straight leg raise?
From Josh:
Are there specific cues you use when coaching a side split squat when dealing with a compressed wide ISA individual? I’m guessing we shouldn’t allow the knee to move laterally but just wanted to make sure.
Have a great weekend.
The podcast will be up this weekend as well. Get the whole week in review and listen while you pretend to work or while you’re just relaxing.
