    The dead hang and active hang are excellent exercises for shoulder and spine health and I would recommend them to almost anyone. However, they aren't the best hang for shoulder heal, the active arch hang (the swan hang) is a progression from the dead hang and active hang that brings more muscles into the mix. It's perfect for undoing the damage caused by slouched posture and forward rolled shoulders.

    Duude this was so helpful! I want to cry right now, I've been stuck on trying to understand better scapular function to correct scapular winging and perform better technique on pull ups and push ups. Your drawings were so clear, you can show what's up internally whereas other videos can't. So so great, I'm trying this right now!

    I do a hang most mornings. 1 mint 'hollow body' hang with perfect form, scapular pulled down and in. then straight into a about 30 sec of what iv been calling an 'L-hang' witch is the same but with my legs straight out at 90. I've never heard of the swan hang. But i have sometimes pulled my self into this position naturally when adjusting my scapulars. Not held it thought, just transitions in and out of it. Ill try a hold tomorrow. Thank you for another great and informative video! ❤🙏

      If you've been doing that for awhile you could probably do some front levers, sounds like you might already being doing some partial front levers. They're not necessary for anything in particular but they look and feel really cool and really develop strong shoulders, back and core. Glad you liked the video, best of luck with your training my friend.

    Holy shit! I am into bodybuilding and for 9 months i've always did dead hangs at home to decompress the spine. First time i did this "perfect hang" my shoulders instantly activated forcing me and my neck to stand upright. It also cracked my upper spine relieving some tension there. I will definitly continue doing this and see the long lasting effects.

    many gyms joined previously in the past, many trainers, exercise scheduels, countless youtube subs and videos saved for posture management. and finally i stumble upon the most basic compound stance that properly actiavates right muscles both at the front and back of body counteracting in the right amount and it miraculously works! Well done sir, you finally cracked the code for all of us homospaiens.

    I’ll give you one better. There is something to be said about having zero activation, while hanging. Let me explain.
    Using a GHD machine with the big pads.
    Lying face up, on the GHD pads without hooking your feet in the machine and instead allowing yourself to break in half and stay put, for minutes. Allow your legs to dangle, and allow your arms to dangle. Like a backbend, without any activation and having the only support touching the smallest surface area of your lower back. That’s why the GHD machines big pads work best. Find that perfect spot that allows you to bend back and not fall on your head. Your legs and arms hang, head hangs, back hangs, hips get opened up, chest gets opened up, neck releases, mid back releases. It’s gets a little weird. Don’t freak out. It’s an amazing flush.

    @TrevorHamberger 6 місяців тому +2

    I do this like 6 times a day to release the tension in my spine. I have no back problems or shoulder problems because I do all the athlean x pre-hab work to prevent this stuff. But when I do hangs I crack my back the entire way up and down it. And at the end I get a huge pelvis drop out crack on the bottom of my spine. When that one is tight I can feel the need to release the tension somehow. When you do a neck push-through on shoulder hangs you can get additional cracks. Often I unlock the pelvis crack only when I push my head through my shoulders in the middle of a hang.
