Stefan, your videos have been an absolute blessing. I’ve seen more progress in the last 6 months doing your daily exercises than I ever have from years of physical therapy. I’m sure I’m not the only one either, you’re the best on youtube. Thank you so much! Quick question: when I do the exercises in the video I get a ton of popping where my ribs connect to the sternum. I get a lot of relief, but I notice if I go into any of the bad positions shown at end of the video, even for just a few minutes, the ribs get stuck again and I need to “pop” them by repeating the exercises (usually ones where I pull the shoulder blades back). Any tips to get rid of the need to pop/crack the sternum for good?
It indicates that your ribs have adapted to a poor position, most likely from poor posture and bad positions. The more you do these exercises the more they will adapt to a better position and movement. But, you may need to add more exercises from my posture playlist
@BodyFixExercises I used to just say that I had shoulder, neck and back pain . Now I think more of the individual components, like tight pecs & posterior capsule, painful rhomboid, and weak middle trapezius & serratus, and on and on. It's all bothered me for a very long time, but has been the worst over the past 3 years. So with multiple issues affecting the shoulders, neck and back, plus biceps tendinitis, do you have any suggestions about which videos to start with and which order to work through? I'd say my shoulder issues are most noticeable. I appreciate your attention to detail to make the exercises more effective than the traditional exercises prescribed in years of PT. Thank you Stefan!
Hello Dr. Becker your youtube channel is great! Can rhomboid tightness muscle cause dizziness? I have also a slight forward head posture. The dizziness is bad after long office hours in front of an computer. What exercices do you recommend? thanks
Problems at the base of the neck can cause dizziness and Rhomboid pain.. Pretty common. These will help.... ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-0zcNvVnKjCA.html
I have been in this health condition for 4 years, and I 5:44 have muscle tension, stiffness, and a slipped cartilage. Unfortunately, my life is ruined by medicine in my country.
