Very helpful again thanks, Tim! I've been doing just the concentric with 3 bands around my ankles. I just tried this version with 1 band and that was quite challenging enough!
Wow certainly will try this, such a great turn in that movement! Ty so much! I'm working hard my butt, am able to do over 300 squats, hip.thrusts when working with bodyweight, but when it comes to lateral movements or Bulgarian split squat I'm sooo freaking bad at it. So this tip for crab walk is really something that'll keep me motivated and hope will help me to get where I want. Yeah I do want a great butt, who doesn't want to look nice, but it's more about activating that big muscle in order to help legs and back. In my mother tongue there is an expression, colloquial one, when you want to say that someone is really lazy, you say that one iz "ljenguza". It's directly using butt making that noun into an adjective with a stamp of laziness on it 😂. Why am I saying this? It's because that big muscle (muscles) "goes" easily to laziness. Once again ty Tim so much and best regards from Serbia.
I’m scared to do this because I have balance issues. My PT had it around my ankle from the start with the traditional crab walk. It’s still good info even if I can’t do it now, thanks.
@@physiorehab thank you tim. am able to hold it for 10 sec which i do twice twice a day. am unable to flex the knee at all as very painful and unstable i had tried the opposite of a supine, foot on contra knee and stretch glut med to strengthen same but no matter where i placed my hand on the symptomatic knee it hurt badly after the exercise all the best, mark
Thank you for your videos! They’ve been so helpful. Is there benefit to a side step position with a deeper bend in the hips and knees (like a lateral squat walk) instead of the more straight legged, upright position shown here? Thanks!
Thank you so much for all your great content! This looks great! Is this move safe for someone dealing with an over-firing piriformis? Trying to strengthen the muscles that are supposed to be doing the work... Thanks again! --Leha
Should this work for gluteus medius tendinopathy? Are there any other eccentric exercises that would work. In the past have been given crabs to do and single leg squats. Did not solve the problem, going on 2+ years now!
Inhave had pain across my glute med over to hip for 6 months and zero answers . From the left of the si joint over to hip just under illiac crest. Included in the ache and soreness is insane mind numbing jolting muscle spams which are always worse when i first wake up in the morning. Please help. Any ideas? Is this caused from si joint, low spine, or something within muscle. 6 months of pain and inflammation with these awful jolt spasms . Severe depression over this trying to find answers! Any ideas?
Mr. Tim is best physiotherapist in the world. Sometimes when we trying to fix one thing but we are creating another issues in our body. If the form is not proper.
