Thank you, Greg. I still do the breathing techniques from your course, very gentle and easy to remember and do, not like some of those huff-puff "power" breaths I did years ago! Always aspiring to look as well put together as Mr. Fibbs!
Thanks for the video, I have rounded shoulders (and kyphosis ) need to try and improve it. I can't do a should press right above my head,my hands come some way forward
Great video, Greg. It seems to me that a lot of people (narrower types especially) are stuck in the exhalation phase of the breathing cycle, resulting in pulled down postures. Yet everywhere you go on online, the emphasis always seems to be on achieving a full exhale, no matter the presentation. This never made much sense to me.
Yes practitioners tend to blindly repeat what they’ve learned at courses and seminars… especially in certain circles. Critical thinking is missing from a lot of the online space unfortunately
Hi, Is there an easy way to confirm whether my improper breathing mechanics has caused my anterior pelvic tilt and not the other way round? I have mobility issues in both - straight leg raise is 25 degrees and my toe touch gets to around mid-shin. Shoulder internal rotation is 40 degrees. My APT is not very strong and I thought people with APT are meant to have a 70+ degree straight leg raise so I wonder whether I actually have true APT, but my center of mass is definitely forward. Thank you!
Causes are always hard (if not impossible) to determine. APT of ~ 10-15 degrees is normal. Not everyone with anterior pelvic tilt has 70+ degrees of SLR. You are correct though. A swayback for example is anteriorly oriented but posteriorly tipped. Hinging is your friend. Also, improving the underlying qualities that will help your body be able to function with less reliance of superficial tension. Grounding, relaxation, strength, coordination, endurance, etc.
