@@PrecisionMovementCoach thank you for these,they seem to be helping🙏🏽 should these be done everyday? And are these good to do for activation before a workout? Thanks again💜
@@kyramarie4671 Thanks for following along and you are welcome. 2 - 3 times per week is sufficient and they are great before workouts :) - Coach Joshua, Team PM
@@PrecisionMovementCoach Thank u so much for responding 💜 Also wanted to ask if u had a recommendation for good running/tennis shoes for overpronation ...I've been wearing Mizuno's for years but feel like they I may need to switch to another brand. Thanks again!
I just did these with you during the video (not the full reps) and already feel better! Have been feeling a lot of pain in glutes and hip flexors. I was able to get my hip flexors better with some other techniques but had not had success with the pain in butt until now!
Excellent, thank you! I have pain and discomfort in my right hip and recently had x-ray that ruled out arthritis; I’m now working on the muscle groups and these exercises are targeting those perfectly. Thank you!
I 100% believe the pelvic floor activation does wonders for 're-centering' and pushing everything back into place. I felt very good pops/clicks of things falling into place as I worked through this video. Thanks so much Eric! Really appreciate your channel/videos! (IT guy that sits all day)
Thank you so much! This is exactly what I suffer from. I can't help myself from sitting for hours because of my job but your programme has helped me remedy many issues already (I do the HPS) and these exercises here are really appealing to me, too. Your series "The active office worker" is one of the best compact tutorials. Keep up the great work!
Thank you for trusting us to guide your efforts. We've got you covered so thanks for stopping by and let us know if you ever have more questions :) - Coach Joshua, Team PM
Have had piriformis/sciatic nerve 3 times from running. Hip capsule issue. Now this issue, from sitting, for 4 months. Yikes, so painful!! I'm going to try this.
Appreciated the video and advice. I was slouching so much. I had to regain and reform my posture piriformis. If you ask me, how's the pain? With the correct sitting form, pain is slowly gone. Listen to this guy, people!!
Do vibration plates help with this ‘sitting syndrome’ I wonder ? I really lost muscle due to prolonged sitting and accompanying stress. Thank you for your great videos !
Likely no. They are passive devices and do nothing to address the root cause of your issues. You are welcome and thanks for watching :) - Coach Joshua, Team PM
I am 62 and I am waiting for a total hip replacement surgery. The x-rays show the deteriation. Do to arthritic joints. My spine has been fused multi levels.oh, sorry my concern here is regarding my left hip, not both of them. When I lay in bed it will take some time before my left leg will straighten out.i will fall asleep while my knee is still in a bent position.i believe these exercises should help my situation, unless there are other options please advise.I still work,and stand for 4hours every night.thank you so much for all you do!
Thanks for writing to us. We really appreciate you trusting us to guide your efforts. These exercises are a great place to start and also consider doing this program: www.precisionmovement.coach/hip-pain-solution-yt - Coach Joshua, Team PM
Your pelvic floor muscles are the set of muscles you use to stop the flow of pee. So, imagine that you are trying to do that and activate the appropriate muscles.
Would you be able to tell me how to make sure I'm evenly activating the anterior pelvic tilt? It feels as though im using one side much more than the other. Thank you
60 and sitting while working from home during covid for almost 3 years, I developed a very painful left psoas. Tendinitis ? I keep trying different stretches from RU-vid but I am not sure how long to continue if I am not seeing an improvement ? I am retiring soon and moving to another country. We will not have a car and will be walking a lot…wondering if over time that will correct the issue ? At this point I’ll try anything to get rid of this pain. Thx
I have lifelong issue that no-one could solve it for me. I'm a seamstress and the pain I get INSIDE my hip during hours long sitting is bad. I have to point out that my right foot is always in front pushing the sewing machine pedal. I many times feel like i need to find a 'sloping' chair to help me keep my hip 'open'. Any help would be appreciated as I've been visiting physios and masseurs for years to no avail.
Hi! Your body has definitely moulded to years of sewing. The Hip Pain Solution Program can help you to restore balance to your hips: www.precisionmovement.coach/hip-pain-solution-yt Let us know if you have any more questions :) - Coach Joshua, Team PM
My back feels tight, uncomfortable and feel pain when I sit and relax but when I stand then my back doesn't hurt and this problem is going on for 3 years, what could be the problem
It's hard to say what the problem could be. Did the exercises help? This assessment tool can give you more ideas: www.precisionmovement.coach/spine-control/fec/ - Coach Joshua, Team PM
One side of my body is tight, the other half is weak, should I continue to do this or firstly release the tight one? or continue despite I feel my right side is weak to active pelvic floor
Start by pressing your toes, metatarsals, and heel into the floor. Then imagine that you are picking up a piece of paper with your foot. Try that out and let us know how it goes :) - Coach Joshua, Team PM
You are welcome! You can modify the exercises to suit your needs and capabilities by making sure that your seated or standing posture is comfortable. Hope that helps! Let us know if you have any more questions :)
Hi and thanks for asking! No but a regular chair is an appropriate replacement. The idea is to get you in an upright position. Keep us posted on your progress :) - Coach Joshua, Team PM
How exactly does one “rule out” that sitting “causes” tight or weak psoas or piriformis? If you can’t rule something out you can’t properly diagnose therefore all claims are unsubstantiated and pure conjecture.
@@PrecisionMovementCoach, well I wasn’t responding to the title but the premise itself. 1. How do we rule out a tight or weak psoas or piriformis? 2. How do we know sitting results in either of these? 3. Lastly, how do we know everyone/anyone or any group of subjects will have this presumed response? 4. How accurate is muscle testing? What are the confounding variables? When we muscle test are we maybe measuring something other than tension? What leads to tension/bracing/stiffness? Does enough of the population brace/stiffen similarly and reliably? Now, all of this is predicated off the idea that muscles have autonomy and act independently from the nervous system. But we know this isn’t how the body works. What determines muscle activity, aka, behavior, aka, output of the nervous system? Just a few questions we should be asking ourselves rather than perpetuating 20th century thinking.
If you're here looking for exercises to do, try them and see how they feel. If you're here trying to figure out movement science, this isn't the right place for that.
