Balance, Alignment, Fluidity-Improve Your Coordination and Confidence 

Thankyou for all you do dr Todd. I like how you explain things, when you said in an older video to keeo the pelvis like a bucket of water, don't spill water forward or backwards made it easyier to understand, thanks dr Todd ❤

Truly, a walking scholar! BOY, how you must have studied for such a skillset! Thank you for exposing my obtuseness!

Liked/ Shared it to many!!!🍀

Had a bit of an AHA moment there @ about 6min in! Any bilateral tensing patterns in the upper or lower abdominal muscles are going to throw your gait off and lead to various compensations. - e.g. the notorious duckwalk. Super dense, but probably my favorite video yet. Every primary, spine surgeon, and physical therapist should watch this. I think it may be worth to talk about how weak dorsiflexion(due to something like a long habit of a duckfooted gait) may make walking with the correct coordination feel *extremely* weird for a while due to a muscle imbalance/weakness. Similar with gluteus medius pelvic stabilization during the swing phase.

Well! I´ll begin with the taichi rotation that I know well and see what results. I am conscious now that I walk with my feet pointing towards but as if I made a duck feet walking. That prevented me to rotate the core and feel well with my twisted and calcified lumbar vertebrae until three or four years ago when a pain, a bit up my spine, began and intensified slowly but firmly. So, a treaky problem to solve. Thank you for you excellent explanation, the animation of the lower and upper abs were essential for me to understand.

Thank you so much!!!!!💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾

Thank you!

Brilliant Todd, great explanation thank you.

Best information...

Doc doc i have questions! Not exactly related to the video but related to the method. 1) say im squating, med/inobliques on left, i go down using flexors on the right giving me the curve in the spine. When i start to use the posterior chain do i mindfully keep the flexors on the right and let them guide the push if you know what i mean or let the curve passively shift to the left focusing just on the hams/glute, and do i initiate the push with the right leg or the left shoulder(lat?) or the left external oblique? 2) would i be correct in assuming the legs posterior chain doesnt really have an external rotator and the external rotations come from the soas and the med, this kinda blew me away thinking about it and made me understand your method so much better if im not wrong 3) in what circumstances if any can we split up the meds rotation from the abduction ( rotation on one leg, abduction on the other ) and is it advised to do so? I personally find myself avtivating the abduction with the exo and the rotation with the internal ob and i feel like the abduction part carries some weight so it makes the turn heavy 4) in the use of the soas does the sartorius's range of motion get used after the rom of the soas or during or does it start the activation or is its use tied to the rectus femoris(sp? The big one in the front) and does the use of all 3 at the same time acurately describe the 'pull',if so what would the power distribution be across all 3? 5) in case of the passive side of the exoblique, would i be wrong if i feel the teres picking up the slack when pushing and whatever glues the shoulderblade to the ribcage near the upper trap when pulling before letting it go to the lat and is there some relation of the teres with the opposite side serratus? Thank you!
