    Q & A for The 16% – Arm training 2 – Improving shoulder and elbow range of motion

    Arm Training 2

    In this video:

    • Why you need to be selective with your arm training.
    • Choosing the wrong arm exercise may make your shoulder pain worse.
    • Choosing the correct arm exercise can improve your shoulder mobility and range of motion.
    • Elbow pain is often the result of the inability to pronate or supinate effectively relative to your shoulder position.

    Two arm exercise examples:

    • Preacher curls to improve shoulder external rotation and supination.
    • Cable triceps pushdowns to improve shoulder internal rotation and pronation.

  • Q & A for The 16%… Improving hip internal rotation – toe touch and deadlift variations

    Q & A for The 16%… Improving hip internal rotation – toe touch and deadlift variations

    Hip internal rotation is essential for the ability to accept force during just about any ground-based activity.

    It’s also essential for any hinging activity in the gym including all forms of deadlifts, kettlebell swings, split squats, step-ups, and lunges.

    Here’s a couple easy ways to recapture hip internal rotation when you’ve lost it due to the concentric orientation and activity of the external rotators.

  • Case Comparison: How does pelvis orientation influence knee orientation

    Case Comparison: How does pelvis orientation influence knee orientation

    How does the orientation of the pelvis influence measures at the hip and at the knee (and foot)?

    We had a couple of cases this week that showed the same orientation to different degrees, therefore, their measures and findings reflected the degree of influence on the knee.

    In this video:

    • What does anterior orientation do to hip measures?
    • How do you identify anterior orientation?
    • What two measures let me know that I have an oblique orientation of the pelvis?
    • What orientation of the knee allows or prevents knee extension?
    • How can the foot provide confirmation of the hip orientation?
