  • Q & A for The 16% – Shoulder Pain with Overhead Pressing

    Q & A for The 16% – Shoulder Pain with Overhead Pressing

    I have my @neurocoffe, do you have yours for today’s
    Q & A

    From Eli:
    I’m having a bit of shoulder issue. When I press overhead either with a dumbbell, barbell, or kettlebell, I get a pinching in my shoulder. When I reach overhead, I don’t seem to get it at all. Is there something that I can do for this? If you’re feeling this same kind of thing yourself, I’ve included a “gym fix” in the discussion.

  • Q & A for The 16% – Young Athlete Development and ISA Compensations & Strategies

    Q & A for The 16% – Young Athlete Development and ISA Compensations & Strategies

    My @neurocoffee is in hand and here’s this morning’s Q&A with a little bit of long-term athletic development feel to it.

    From Nate:
    I work do a lot of work with athletes in the age groups of 11-25 and I was curious if you think ISA compensations take time to manifest and therefore hard to detect in younger or prepubesent people?   As a follow up to this question do you feel that it would be smart to expose young and/or inexperienced athletes to the entire spectrum of the propulsion arc so they don’t slip to far into inhale or exhale strategies?

  • Q & A for The 16% – Training for Compressive Strategies in a Wide ISA Client

    Q & A for The 16% – Training for Compressive Strategies in a Wide ISA Client

    I have my @neurocoffee and I have a great Q & A for today with visual aids included.

    From Jimmy: I was wondering if you could go into a bit more detail about wide ISAs that show a swayback/posterior tilt, where would you start with someone like this? Following on from this, would that change for someone with an asymmetrical ISA?

    I had to go low tech and draw a diagram for you, so be ready with your screen capture. Send questions to askbillhartman at gmail with “Bill Hartman question” in the subject line.

  • Q & A for The 16% – Narrow Infrasternal Angle Squat Strategy

    Q & A for The 16% – Narrow Infrasternal Angle Squat Strategy

    Get your @neurocoffee.

    Here’s today’s Q & A.

    From Zhang:
    I noticed on my female clients, mostly narrow ISA, that a lot of them have anterior pelvis orientation (lordotic lumbar spine, limited hip extension, butt back during squats). One way I use to promote posterior pelvis orientation is by using a heel ramp and cueing them to tuck,  but I see little improvement. Is this a good strategy for narrow ISA? Will it promote further inhalation bias which defeats the purpose of creating posterior pelvic orientation?
    What other strategies would you recommend to reduce anterior orientation of the pelvis for narrow ISA?
