just wanted to add to my comments that apart from exercises themselves, I like the format of the workout: music complements it in a nice way, it is never loud or intense, or interfering with explanations :) music indeed makes the process more fun
Yay! Thanks Eka, so encouraging to hear. Yes we purposely choose music that is pleasant and not overbearing, rather than being too obnoxious or trendy. Glad to hear you like our choice :)
Thank you!! It's only 2 of us, so that's encouraging to hear that we're doing a good job! Please considering supporting via supers donation/shares/referrals so we can continue doing this work.
Hi there, I found all your videos very helpful and motivating at the same time plus the concept of 30 seconds instead of reps is also very interesting. Can you please make a video on 'scoliosis exercises with dumbbells' which is also safe for scoliosis. As there is no such video on RU-vid. It will be a huge help. Thanks.
Hello! Thanks for the comment. Yes, we decided not count reps because we recognize that everyone moves at their own pace depending on individual factors such as strength, pain, fitness levels. We had a workout with dumbbells but we had to re-edit something on it, so we'll re-post it again soon! Also we filmed a video for scoliosis exercises with a kettlebell, and we'll publish that soon. Thanks for reminding us!
Thank you for responding. I'm looking forward to and excited about these videos. Will you please tell me how much weight I can exercise with in dumbbells?
How can we build muscle with SCOLIOSIS. I was doing Push ups for 2 months, end up in severe back pain when i went for shopping and while standing for Long. Please tell me, how can we increase muscle ? SPrinting, running also brings pain in the weak Foot
Building muscle revolves around the same principles for any body, which typically involves higher weight, lower repetition. When you have scoliosis, you just need to do movements that are friendly for your specific curve, and our workouts include many of these movements. If you want to build muscle, increase the weights or resistance that you use. However, if you have back pain or other pain, then you likely need to see a physiotherapist who can help you address the pain first before adding more weight to your exercises.
Hi! Great question. We don't use the climbing walls for treatment necessarily, however we do use them for warm-ups, games, and other hanging and shoulder strengthening activities for younger clients. We also feel it looks nice to break up the lines of the ladders :)
Arching the back, while lying on the stomach is damaging and painful for scoliosis. There are warnings not to do it. I have severe scoliosis and this is impossible. Hyperflexion of the neck is damaging! Positions such as the one shown above apply excessive strain to the small vertebrae in your neck; if you have scoliosis, this will also place increased weight and strain through the weaker parts of your spine, potentially causing your spinal curve to increase!
The position shown in this video, the prone position, uses cues to encourage you to activate your core to support your spine to prevent that overarching position, so in our opinion, it is fine. Which of the positions (what timestamp of the video) use hyperflexion of the neck?
Hi Eka, thanks for the request! We've been trying to keep our routines to between 10-15 minutes long so you can add different workouts together. You can use the warm-up routine as a cool down, here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-LEPVjw4yB00.html Or you can just choose a few of the stretches from the full body flexibility routine (ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-zG0JlR_EzLg.html) or upper body stretches (ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-8NVGdRovpNc.html)
