Loved the ad! I'm one of those who responded to a recent email you sent advising us to use ROM Coach and responded! I even bought the paid version but did not explore the library! So happy to learn about specific warmup and cooldown exercises for running! Will watch the rest of this video later, it's 1:30am, need to get to bed. Thank you for all your work.

Been working on these exercises for the last few weeks and they have been great! Sadly had another flare up of my chronic knee pain likely PFPS after a intense match. The dead bug w/ knee extension brings on that pain towards end range of knee extension. I do have tight hamstrings as well. Also finding lunges difficult, should I be pushing through pain with these exercises? Thank you and looking forward to more content!
Thanks for trying it out! Stop doing any exercise that causes pain unless you can modify it in order to do it pain-free. Modifications include moving slower and smaller. Keep us posted on your progress and let us know if you need any further advice :) - Coach Joshua, Team PM
Love the exercises and the channel! My only concern is foam rolling the IT band. Many people advise against rolling the IT band because they say theres no myofascia there. Whats your reasoning behind why you should be rolling out the IT band?
Great question! Check out the first two videos here: www.youtube.com/@themovementlongevityshow5450/search?query=foam Let us know if you have any more questions :) - Coach Joshua, Team PM
Very good video . I am 59 years old and the problem i have when I exercise is a lot of cramping..... Anything do you suggest in order to prevent cramping please ???
Hi! That's a tricky question and we can't fully address it without seeing you move and knowing more about your exercises. For example, did you cramp at all during these exercises? - Coach Joshua, Team PM
Understood. The next thing to try is to back off on the amount and intensity of your exercises by half and see what happens. Keep us posted on your progress :) - Coach Joshua, Team PM
Ooh thanks for this, I'll definitely try these. With the active arch hop, is it advisable to add light weight as you progress, or is that a no-no? I do hops similar to that but with heels OFF the ground to try and build up tensile strength in the Achilles to try and help with running speed, is that something you'd advice? Cheers.
Hi and thanks for trying it out. There's no need to add weight in order to progress. What you describe is a classic running drill. It's okay as long as it does not cause pain. Keep us posted on your progress :) - Coach Joshua, Team PM
I’ve had constant knee pain, sore hip and lower back issues. Turns out I have iliacus joint pain and a tight IT band. Psoas device has worked great to loosen my iliacus muscle and now using my massage gun on my IT band several times a day has lowered my knee pain, hip and lower back. I was naive and had no clue it is all connected.
During the exercise with the foam roller underneath the thigh, when activating the VMO, it is normal that the inner thigh activates as well. It's difficult to isolate completely the quad. Also, I suppose it's normal that the hip flexors fire up during the dead bug exercise.
1. Your VMO activation is weak. You gotta practice this everyday and eventually you'll develop the mind-body connection. I can completely isolate my VMO but that came with practice 2. Yes, it's normal that they fire up since they're holding your legs and moving them about the hip
That's okay! Cramping indicates that the muscle is weak at that range of motion. Try to push through the cramping and you will improve with time and practice. Keep us posted on your progress and thanks for stopping by :) - Coach Joshua, Team PM
