Thoracic flexion is a necessary spinal range for full range pushing. It allows our scapular muscles to reach their pushing end ranges. It is also useful for improving your exhalation ability.
Depending on which region is stuck for you (upper/lower), it will require different interventions. This is more biased to mid to lower thoracic flexion. For the very upper thoracic flexion you will need to visit some of our neck strengthening videos as the longus colli. To get the very last mid to upper of thoracic flexion you will need to focus on exhalation and pushing away!

You get such a nice curve in your back. My back almost stays flat however hard I try. 😢

Practice! Plus everyone is different 😊. Goal is to improve your personal restrictions.

What does it mean if my thoracic spine hurts while flexing it?

@theMSKphysio 11 месяцев назад

It could mean a few things. If the 'hurt' is only while moving, we might call this mechanical pain. Pain is highly complex and can't be diagnosed over this medium. That being said, some general advice is to a) reduce the intensity of the movement; b) try the opposite movement; c) if it persists and/or starts to become sore at rest, see a local professional to get more clarity. Hope that helps!

@@theMSKphysio so should i improve my thoracic extension? Is that what you mean with the opposite movement?

@theMSKphysio 11 месяцев назад

Short answer is yes to thoracic extension being the opposite movement. To be specific though, it's not necessarily the 'improvement' in thoracic extension that becomes the reason one experiences relief. Local movement, for most people, will provide local relief in that area. If one direction is sore and not tolerable, but the opposite direction _IS_ tolerable, then that becomes an option for experiencing local relief.
