  • Q & A for The 16% – Wide ISA Training Strategies to Recapture Internal Rotation

    Q & A for The 16% – Wide ISA Training Strategies to Recapture Internal Rotation

    Question from Monica and Justin:

    What are some other training strategies for a wide individual who is compressed A to P in both the pelvis and the thorax who has lost hip bilaterally IR to try to regain the ability to reorient the ilium and move it relative to the sacrum?

    In this video: I review the thorax and pelvis shape associated with the wide infrasternal angle archetype client or athlete. I then explain how you would select training strategies that you would use to recapture or improve shoulder and hip rotation. Attention is given to a couple simple self-tests and best choices for positioning and exercise selection.

  • Half-Kneeling from the Inside-Out

    Half-Kneeling from the Inside-Out

    I explain the most common pelvic orientations that you’ll see with half-kneeling exercises.

    Establishing control in half-kneeling is foundational to all of your split-stance and single leg exercises such as split squats, lunges, and step-up.

  • Q & A for The 16% – Determining Sacral movement vs. Pelvic Orientation (aka pelvic tilt)

    Q & A for The 16% – Determining Sacral movement vs. Pelvic Orientation (aka pelvic tilt)

    Grab your @neurocoffee and get ready for today’s Q & A!

    How are you dissociating sacral movements to pelvic orientations, and how do they show up in testing? What are your key indicators and where do you see common compensations around expected limitations based on their initial ISA/IPA presentations?

    My second question is based on when you refer to being in an inhalation vs exhalation state. Where do you commonly refer to when you say someone is in exhalation vs inhalation?

    In this video:

    I explain the difference between relative motion within the pelvis and absolute position change via orientation.

    I then explain what I mean by those with an exhalation bias or an inhalation bias based on physical structure of the body such as the infrasternal angle and helical orientations.
