    Q & A for The 16% – Forward Head Posture Strategy – Deadlifts?

    I have my @neurocoffee and here’s today’s Q&A.

    Playing off a comment from yesterday’s shoulder impingement video, I got a request to discuss forward head posture. Here’s a description of forward head posture and some counterintuitive strategies to restore movement options.

  • Q & A for The 16% – Shoulder Impingement – Why and How?

    Q & A for The 16% – Shoulder Impingement – Why and How?

    I have my @neurocoffee as usual but today’s Q&A felt like it would work better with a little help from Alfred in The Purple Room.

    From David:

    I get a lot of left shoulder pain with bench pressing. Any pressing really. I’ve followed the typical recommendations of doing ITYW exercise, face pulls, and rotator cuff strengthening with rubber bands that a PT friend recommended. I’m still having pain and now the shoulder feels stiff too. Any idea how this happens? Any solutions?

  • Q & A for The 16% – How do Sensory Systems and Neurology Factor into Movement

    Q & A for The 16% – How do Sensory Systems and Neurology Factor into Movement

    A deep, philosophical question for a Monday. This one will take 2 cups of @neurocoffee.

    From Eduard:
    the model of inhalation and exhalation works and it is to your credit to show simple solutions to put a human body into positions to facilitate the desired outcome and to restore normal breathing mechanics and movement options. But i think the we have to acknowledge that it is not only a body or body part position that influences the mechanics of movement and posture but also neurological in and output. Shouldn’t we incorporate the neurology of sensing and the effect of autonomic states into your model?

  • Q & A for The 16% – Single Leg Stance – Pelvis Mechanics

    Q & A for The 16% – Single Leg Stance – Pelvis Mechanics

    I have my @neurocoffee in hand and here’s today’s Q&A.

    From Mikheal:
    If someone is standing on one leg (left) and another leg is flexed in hip and knee 90/90 then the standing leg’s hip is excessively externaly rotated abducted and extended. Why is it and what to do with it? This one is all about delaying the propulsive phase. Here’s how you do that.

  • Q & A for The 16% – The Squat – Body Weight Squats vs. Loaded Squats

    Q & A for The 16% – The Squat – Body Weight Squats vs. Loaded Squats

    My @neurocoffee is in high gear for this morning’s Q & A.

    From Mihail:
    Could you please explain how do the mechanics change between a body weight squat and a weighted squat?

    Wow… what a great question. Lots to unpack here. Be sure to ask questions!
