Q & A for The 16% – Will Wide Infrasternal Angles Benefit from Side Plank or Inversion?

April 20, 2020 By Bill Leave a Comment

Grab your @neurocoffee for this morning’s Q & A for The 16%…

From Michael:
I’ve heard you say that you would side plank a wide ISA. Can you go into detail about why  and what effect it has on the ribcage?  Also, can you give some side plank examples you would use? Progressions, regressions?

From Rondel:
I asked a question about expansion in the upper thorax [on the IFAST U Q & A], and I would like to get clarification, if possible. Let me know if I got this correct.  Wide: Face-up: what exercises specifically?  Narrow: Facedown: what exercises specifically?

From Sasha:
I do have a question pertaining to the shoulder going into extension being an external rotation moment, unless you are reaching across the midline. Would that fly in the face of what is commonly taught? Have an outstanding day!
