Q & A for The 16% – Understanding Upper Dorsal-Rostral Expansion – Exercise Strategy

June 12, 2020 By Bill Leave a Comment

I brought my @neurocoffee into the purple room so I could use a couple models to show you some key elements associate with the upper dorsal-rostral thorax.

I spent some time this morning on a mentorship call discussing approaches to recapture the expansion in the area of the last few upper ribs and lower cervical spine mechanics.

I’ll cover a few elements of normal and compensatory strategies and then show you a few exercises that I use to address these limitations in the gym.
