Dr. Mercer! Dude this is so cool to see! I'm so happy you have enjoyed daily training. It's such a cool way to train with so many benefits. Well done, brother!

omfg, thank you bro, Iam a 17year old male, and I had this shoulder grinding of my right shoulder for about a year or so, I researched a lot but could not find the root cause, you are a saviour bro, you gained a subscriber!

Has there been any follow up? Good video I think I might have the same thing at the moment

Welcome to the k Boges club. I follow him for years now without regret

Yes, this has been my struggle. The anti-surgery sentiments have kept me from seeking treatment as soon as I could have.

Hi , i have nonspherical femoral heads on xray - cam. I have some pain in front and in lateral of hips when in pancake position or with internal rotation. I want to train judo as MA cause its not so much flexibikiry needed but i am now a bit afraid not to tear labrum or cartilage to make it worse. What do you reccomend ? I can show my xray if needed.

I find this review to be a bit ridiculous since you're not discussing Matt's belief that the orthopedic theory of joint pain is wrong. Of course there's a bias. All humans have biases and obviously Matt sells programs designed to relieve pain without surgery so there's going to be a bias but how can you critique him without discussing the foundation of his ideology around physical pain and the theory still used by surgeons that Matt flat out calls wrong? Have you not read the literature that's available on the upright health website?

All the links to your programs are down. Are the FAI and labral tear programs still available?

Agreed!!! I've been having hip pain for over a month. Suspect its from overuse injury over a year ago. Ortho thinks its a tear. Waiting to get MRI to confirm. Uroght health is very knowledgeable but seems fo be very against labral hip surgery. I also have torn meniscus and the difference between people who arr happy post meniscectomy vs labral hip tear repair is amazing. Almost everyone eho got arthroscopy for labral hip tear are glad they did. Unlike meniscectomy.

Thanks for the recap. I Have followed him for a while but have been trying to figure out an optimal strategy to follow. His philosophy seems to revolve around how to do this daily, long term.

Lets be sensible human beings for a change. I watch experts on UA-cam as i watch TV. I think for myself. Upright Health is promoting exercise rather than jumping into surgery. Something I have heard over and over from people who have had to recover from operations. Seems a no brainer to me. Upright Health gives ideas for exercise that support this. Ultimately everyone makes their own decisions best for them. What is your motive for this video? I wonder.

What I don’t understand with calisthenics is when to progress. What I do is to select 2-3 exercises per each muscle group and do 3-4 sets till technically failure. I managed to achieve 3 sets of full ROM pull ups for 10 reps and now I really don’t know if it’s time to add a little weight and start again the whole process or stick to normal pull ups and to add some reps. My goal is to achieve as much strength as I can but doing calisthenics.

Thank you for the video I seen to surgeons as well. The first surgeon wasn’t confident the surgery would work so I waited month a until I got a second opinion and went to sought after, highly confident, well reviewed surgeon. let’s just say I’m eight months post operation and I’m still in pain. Please keep in mind I’ve had hip pain since 2017. It was just bearable. I was still able to play basketball and do all the things I love so I wasn’t too concerned about it and it was mostly pain in my glute. It wasn’t until a couple years later when I started to experience more pain in my Groin is when I started to get concerned, I did physical therapy months before I even got the surgery and I’m still doing it now so I’m not sure why I’m still experiencing pain.

Just starting my journey currently. Thanks for the free programme. I'm in the UK and PT over here is waaaaay behind the USA (I've had bodywork and done somatic PTSD therapy in the USA). Two physios suspect labral tear. First physio stretched me out on the table, it felt worse after (historically I find physios tend to make me sorer). Second does hands on muscular work, really helps but still pinching ... says they are 'only doing maintenance' until hip is sorted (ie arthroscopy). I have slight concerns that there's no strengthening work. About to swap consultants because the wait list is long (this is UK private care not NHS) and they won't do MRI before a consultation (I have to pay for consultations and not MRIs so that leaves me paying for more consults - and delays things). Have already waited 2m, new consultant could get MRI done and see me 2 weeks before I'd see the original one. I have a CT (not taken for hips) which captures hips 3m before pain started, looks to me like mild CAM lesion on painful side, small osteophyte and reduced joint space .. I'm late 50s and I have a diagnosis of Sjogren's (apparently doesn't usually affect hips) and am advised to avoid NSAIDs due to single kidney with reduced function. I also have two horses to care for and one of them to exercise ...pretty painful the first 5-10 seconds (even after hip exercises, although they do help just beforehand) then settles but I collapse that hip when riding. I am not yet sure how good an anaesthetic risk I am due to other issues, do you know if arthroscopy is ever done under sedation?

How about if there is no difference both ways? Also, I have zero back pain, just chronic equal bilateral lower leg/feet tightness/pain. Any suggestions? Thx.

Great man keep up the good work . I made the same change 2 years ago . I'm a BSc Sports and exercise Science , and FItness and Nutrition Specialist, Im also a "Life Athlete" cause Im play a lot of tennis Mt Bike and Mountaineering stuff. This is the way to go for me too.Its a great way to train really , no more soreness and heavy body just pure energy and full throttle on your sports .

His channel changed my routine and life too. I had gastro issues too and I literally cured 90 percent of my issues with daily workouts, sleep and dietary changes. I’m going to look at pull up bar tower today !

🙏🏽thank you, very helpful

You were way over training. Mainstream splits are a very slippery slope for nattys. What system do you train?

Is it possible to get some degree of internal rotation back with these exercises - FAI really limits me with IR and the muscles are always tight around the hip.

Very helpful. Thank you.

but if you don't have surgery with FAI, doctors say that it accelerates the development of degenerative changes in the hip in the future. .isn't that true? so maybe you did the right thing by having surgery. I have the same problem and I'm thinking about surgery.

Think matt does way more good than harm...its fixed most of my hip problems....I think most people would rather someone else fixed their problem,than do the work themselves,I'm not one of them. You are entitled to your opinion,but I think most people having done his excercises would disagree with you.

Promising start. After my first exercises, my neck turning range is expanding and the tightness pain is receding. I'll keep the practice up and I'll keep you posted!

Great video but how can i train my glutes? My problem is that whatever i do for glutes its too much hip flexion for me which leads to pain. What goute exercises could I do and modertae the execises? Any examples?

Can you tell me any gkute exercises i can do with a labral tear please?

I agree with what you are saying. I’ve been watching Matt’s videos for years now and certain things he said in his videos contributed to me not wanting to even get an MRI, for at least 3 years. Well, it was also because I just didn’t want to go the surgery route. I also suspect that one of the exercises he prescribed contributed to it getting much worse. I was doing the 90/90 hip exercise and was pushing the inside of me knee down into the ground as hard as possible. I thought I was strengthening my internal hip rotators but a physio I visited in person told me that’s not a good idea to do that, when the hip is at it’s end range. Do you think it’s likely I caused damage doing that? If you can understand what I’m describing? The next day I had excruciating groin pain and then my lower back pain started which hasn’t gone away after all this time. I’ve since learnt that lateral tears can cause pain to refer to the lower back. I’ve finally gone and got an MRI and it reads on the report: Full-thickness tear of the anterior superior and anterior labrum with associated adjacent multiloculated paralabral cyst. Articular cartilage is preserved. Ligamentum teres is intact. Small hip joint effusion symmetric to the contralateral side. I’ve now got an appointment with my GP coming up. I have no idea what I’m going to do from here. I’m only 34 and all I want to be able to do is workout like I used to. My mental health needs it.

Is it okay to run with FAI / a hip labral tear? Some say yes, others say no, speculating that it will further degrade the joint and lead to Osteoarthritis / eventually a full hip replacement.

How long should you give PT a chance before pursuing surgery?

I have a severe anterior labral tear FAI. I used to play tennis frequently but I haven't been able to' play for the past 6 months due to the tear. I've been doing physical therapy (strengthening hips muscles and core to correct an anterior pelvic tilt). My symptoms are improving and I haven't peaked yet, to consider surgery. My question is around age. What age is the best to have surgery and if you are older, are the results not as successful. I'm very in good shape, athletic but over 50.

Comforting video, thank you. I have the same as you which came about after a t-bone car accident. Did you ever feel your hip was sore to touch or swollen? I'm six months out and it's very sore and looks inflamed over the C-section. Thanks again

You're butt hurt.

Whats your height daddy?

Wow 😮 i appreciate your hard work 🎉❤😊w man 🗿👍🏻

Where does Matt at Upright Health say to not get surgery? He sure shows how surgery can have bad outcomes, and that the history of orthopedic surgery shows that new techniques can end up being scrapped due to poor long term outcomes.

I actually did a depressive spiral thinking my FAI surgeries were a mistake by finding his page recently. I wasn’t diagnosed with hypermobile Ehlers Danlos before FAI surgery but knowing that would have influenced my decision for surgery given risks and extended recovery time needed. At 7-8 years out, I’m dealing with painful adhesions, restricted nerves, and 50% gait asymmetry. My entire body is affected now, especially feet and back. I do think I needed surgery but would have benefited from having an EDS aware PT. I also learned Dengue fever infection caused a lot of advanced osteoarthritis of my hips and spine as well as dental problems. I’ve been through the entire medical system seeking help: Mayo pain rehab, Fisher Sports for PT, top surgeon, 10+ PTs, 20 massage therapists, 10+ chiros, 3+ pain drs, across multiple countries, etc etc and I’m not able to get relief, especially not with an online program.

I think everyone's results and opinions will vary and while I don't have labral tears, I can only say for myself that Upright Health's exercises have helped me tremendously with my flexibility and pain. I do believe the Upright Health philosophy to always think muscle. At the end of the day, for me, regardless of my skeletal structure, the one thing I definitely have some control over is the use of my muscles. Simply sitting and getting rest just isn't an option for me when certain unused muscles have atrophied. Again, just my personal experience.

MRI examination of the right hip. Aspherical shape of the femoral head due to thickened femoral neck. Alpha angle measured at more than 60 degrees. The acetabular roof somewhat more covers the femoral head - likely a combination of cam and pincer impingement. The joint space on the right is somewhat narrowed. The left joint space is of appropriate width. The cartilage cap on the right is also somewhat thinned. A subchondral cyst is visible in the neck area - initial osteoarthritis. Muscular structures are of appropriate signal. This is my medical report. Do you recommend arthroscopic surgery to reshape the bone structures to prevent further damage to the labrum and joint cartilage?

gotta love dogs, they are the best. good video

I did the FAI Fix program for a couple weeks, and my pain issues kept getting WORSE, during that time (after having remained static at a moderate level for the previous month or two). 👎

Agreed. When I started my journey with FAI, Upright Health and GotRom were the two that popped up the most. Over time I've become more wary of any expert that oversells one approach in favor of another. I have had good results from your FAI program and content here. Surgery is still an option, though, and one I may consider in the future. I would be lucky to work with you in person. Not to knock PTs, but few of them really seem to understand FAI and labral tears beyond pre-/post-operation. Having more PTs specialize in specific issues like FAI is something I would like to see more of in the future.

Agreed. The surgery actually can repair the teared labrum and there are many nba players who return to sports after the surgery. In addition, the rehab plan should be designed based on the labrum tear of the specific patient. For example, as the most of the labrum tear is anterior and superior labrum tear, the patient should avoid hip internal rotation when the hip is flexed.

Confused because I watched one of your past videos where you said you regretted getting the surgery and at the time you thought it was your only option.

Been a practicing physio for 20 years and I agree. Care must be given in the manner in which advice is given with the goal being patient centered. It is about them not the provider.

is there a name for this situation of the muscles cramping due to it being in a new position/range of motion/movement pattern?

my hip isn't actually the most painful part of my body after the MRI revealed a labrum tear, it feels like the IT band down my leg and the outside of knee is what is keeping me up every night. do you know what could be going on there? I need to find a good physio near me to see, or sign up for your program for 1 on 1 therapy. let me know if youve ever had to deal with this type of pain. cheers.

Very interesting the standing on the wall variation, I’ll start that way to see if it works better for me. Thanks again for all your content!
