Q & A for The 16% – Hip External rotation solution – Rib stiffness strategy – Hand to Shoulder ER/IR

April 15, 2020 By Bill Leave a Comment

I hope you made your @neurocoffee because I have 3 great Q & A’s for today.

From Eduard:
How do you distinguish between the genetically determined structure of being an narrow vs. wide and a body that starts for example as a wide and does tons of compressive hardcore weight and in result ends up as a narrow with excessive external obliques and now has to deal with that. 2 or even 3 layers of compensation on compensation overhelming this body. Would you still start with moving ISA first and then get the counternutation of the sakrum and the upper T spine going?

From Brian:
If someone exhibits a narrow ISA with an excessive lumbar lordosis and limited hip ER,  would a good strategy to improve the hip ER measures  be to work on activities to improve lower posterior thorax expansion to reduce the lordosis which is driving the anterior pelvis orientation ?

From Matt:
I saw your recent tricep push down video and noticed you say to push through the pinky side of your hands. I was wondering why this is, and how pressing through different parts of your hand can have different influences on the rest of the body. Is it at all similar to pressing through different aspects of your foot?
