We can do better. So much better I believe.
From my perspective, the fitness and rehab industries are getting diluted and dumbed down in an effort the make the almighty dollar.
I want to challenge you to raise your game. To truly want you to be better tomorrow than you are today… on every level.
To do that you don’t need more information. Information is easy.
What you lack is guidance, mentorship, and experience using a coherent model. You can accelerate your personal and professional progress with these things. The content here can start you on this journey.
14:54 talking about how fast the energy comes to the system. it might sounds funny, but this one clears a lot of things i had in mind! Thank you for that! and ofc the rest of the video!
Thanks for this - great info & I now understand the PRI shoe list. One thing on the toe splay - it really does help with balance. I've noticed since moving to Altra running shoes my forefoot has expanded and I'm able to get much more stability doing single leg balance stuff from the foot - which stops my hips overworking to keep the balance. Altra's seem the ideal shoe - not completely bendy, 0 drop, and solid heel counters depending on the version.
Step 1. Release 4 shoes: The early P, the Mid P, the Max P and the Late P. Call them the Propulsion Series Unified Health and Performance Continuum Max 2.0's. Step 2. Hire Long Wong to model. Step 3. Capitalize on the unlimited pool of future clients who buy the Late P's. Step 4. Profit.
@billhartmanpt @ChusWias nice episode! I have designed different shoes based on foot position (have 2 sets of fully wearable prototypes from 2017 and 2023) and have manufacturing connections. If you want to ever chat about the decisions that come up during design as they relate to foot position and structural influence of the shoe on the foot let me know. If you want to make shoes together, let me know as well!
Thanks for that insightful episode. Havent heard you talking about walking barefoot. From a sensational perspective, this should be the situation to feel ground contact and foot mechanics best. Would you say walking barefoot can be helpfull in certain circumstances? If yes, can this be transfered to "bare foot shoes" as they should give you the freedom of walking barefoot and just protect your skin? Thx alot.
Thanks for checking out this episode. Watch all the way through and we talk about the necessary sensations that shoes provide. If we wanted to promote a middle propulsive foot, or force production we might consider training in a more barefoot way, but that might just mean we wear socks to do squats or something along those lines.
Thanks Chris. I made sure to watch everything before asking, since i dont want to ask unnecessary Things. I was asking because since i do my recon program at Home and usually walk around bare foot, i do my program mostly barefoot. I started wearing a pair of those squischy bare foot shoes about 2 weeks before starting recon, and initially, my heels did hurt after short walks, due to my Cog forward and a heavy heel strike ( never had that Sensation before with cushioned shoes). 3 weeks into my program my CoG went backwards and my heelstrike got a lot softer... since then wearing these shoes got really comfortable. So that unbiased Sensation helped me a lot to feel where i am in space.
Hey Bill - love your content and I am part of UHP+. Ok so I am understanding narrow with 90 degree left hip ER as a spinal compensation, I am trying to intervene and I actually want to see them lose some of that early hip ER if I am successful? Guess I have not been successful yet. Could you give ideas - since you alluded to having someone with no hip IR in this video and 90 degrees of early hip ER and then you did one quick intervention and they went back toward "average" hip measures. Please tell of this intervention! at 4:10 in this video you explain a specific case that I am wondering that intervention. (Check is in the mail to IFast)
Good evening Bill, is the army crawl exercise in this video a moving exercise? Or an ISO breathing exercise where you stay with the L leg bent and in ER?
Hey Bill, despite the rolling armbar to the left.. Which exercises could also be beneficial to gain compression on the right to reorient the sacrum to the left?
Well it should really be considered, by educational systems, put some of you videos in schools. Including this, a very important lesson about something that everyone will have to face at some point in their life.
Hello Bill, I just came back from my knee specialist and he ordered a new MRI to exclude any serious knee damage but according to his tests, he felt like the problem was in my left hip. When I was lying supine, he flexed my knee and pushed it towards me (as far as he could) and then he turned my hip inward and that created the pain on the lateral side of the patella. Meniscus tear is not possible according to him. He was thinking of left hip impingement that could create this pain at the left knee. I do feel a lot of posterior lower compression (lack of IR). I watched your video on tibiofemoral ER and I am probably already past that stage: My pelvis is so far forward on the left that anything that involves deep hip flexion (like deep squat) is just jamming something in my knee. I know that you can't provide a program through YT but is there a specific video or maybe even the RECON program that can help me out? Or could you just name a few exercises and I will look them up so I know where to start? For example frog breathing, supine cross connect, hooklying with a ball, etc... I am a narrow btw.
I’m confused. You talked about rolling ant tib ankle to knee, but VL hip to knee and said you’d never go the other way then got into sequencing. Do we roll all muscles/tissues proximal to distal, or does it depend? If it varies how do we know which way each one should be?
i have 28 degrees and other than freaking people out when i extend my arm, nothing really happened. i used to do push ups every day too. i wouldn't even know what it is if a doctor didn't saw it randomly
Hello guys, I was wondering if someone is really elite at capturing energy in an early representation, what kind of athletic footwear would enhance performance? A built up heel? Or a really stiff arch? Or something else.
So what can we do for the person on the right to achieve more relative motion at the pelvis and not shift the CN strategy upwards if the goal of the person on the right is to learn to handle gravity better and ultimately enhance athleticism? How can we get the person on the right to be able to drop straight down and capture eccentric orientation or descension of the anterior pelvic floor? Is it a box squat progression?
in a wide, right oblique and pushed forward with limited right hip IR - for the high to low cable press - would you go right foot forward to create the delay on the right posterior pelvis?
Hey bill i have exactly the same thing that you explain with scapula and pelvis.. I am in pain around my shoulder due to improper scap position.. I am in pain for last 2years literally crying while writing this... Can u please tell me which exercise i should do everyday to overcome this sway back posture. 😢
Hahaha I’m from Rochester! Artie the one man party and 98PXY! Didn’t know that about Chris. I grew up in canandaigua. The warm 101.3 shoutout had me loling
Hey Bill, would you approve putting the patient into slight cervical extension ("head tilt, chin lift") to increase upper airway expansion and inhibit anterior neck recruitment during breathing while doing side lying activities?
@@BillHartmanPT Too bad. Then can I ask you there. What can I do instead of left sidelying right propulsion? I do not feel the glutes during this exs. You recomend that in some video, that have likely my condition(left ir- er+ stri60; right ir+ er- str20; narrow isa).
@@BillHartmanPT Good left hip external rotation, but limited internal. Right is opposite, but I guess my right internal comes from cheating("lateral tilt"). Straight leg raise on the left around 60 degree, and very limited on the right, not greater than 20 degree. Narrow ISA. Hope Im not missing something.
So when someone can’t internally rotate at the calcaneus and miss IR A bunion is formed at the big toe in a way to create internal rotation. But does this mean the foot can’t go through full pronation What representation of gait would this be also - toe off ?
There would not be relative movement in the foot which would be required for traditional pronation. Apologies, I'm not sure what you're asking in your last question?
Hi bill, for the asymmetrical part is that picture showing a turn to the Right? Also, which playlist on your channel would I find more info on addressing these kid of asymmetrical turning situations. Thanks
Hi Bill, i understand the logic you are driving about recreating the early IR position in a seated hamstring curl when doing the upper extremity. Would that the reason why you cue turning your thorax towards the arm resting on the ground? To create that early IR cause if my thorax is turned away from the grounded arm, i run the risk of retaining a late represenation at the arm?
@@BillHartmanPT yes, you discouraged squeezing of knees in hooklying initially because that is what these individuals are already doing to capture foot contacts in standing. So my question is, is this squeezing of knees together that they do in standing associated with "knee valgus"
