I never really comment on videos but I have to say, you sir have changed my life. I'm actually an MScPT student myself and for the last 6 years I bounced around from doc to doc, PT to PT, etc. and none of them had any answers for me. I would tell them over and over that it feels like my body was split down the midline and I felt a torsional force all throughout my trunk/pelvis/neck, my scapulohumeral rhythm was messed up, I had pain and crepitus all over my body including in my jaw, and I would have these involuntary counter-rotational myofascial patterns that made zero sense to everyone including myself. For 6 long years I was told it's everything from being psychological to central symptoms related to referred pain from hiatal & umbilical hernias (which I also have and which I now know is due to the increased intra-abdominal pressure brought on by pelvic torsion) and every single time I was written off as if I was exaggerating how bad it was. My pain never went below a 6/10 and would very very frequently shoot up to a 10+/10 regardless of my posture or if I was supine/prone/side lying/sitting/standing. I became depressed, suicidal, and withdrawn over time because of this. I am aware of how doctors and PTs often like to dismiss other professions (including the biomechanical concepts underpinning the PRI) but I guarantee not a single one of them has ever had to deal with this pain or understands these myofascial patterns - and nobody can unless you experience what I'm talking about. I say screw that, we all need to learn from each other and I am a firm believer in a holistic perspective to health now, having viscerally experienced the benefits brought about from understanding the root cause thanks to what you've been describing and treating it thanks to the exercises you demonstrate. I wish I could buy you lunch or something...I am not joking when I say my life would have been in ruins had I not discovered these concepts. Thanks so much Conor, and I'll be advocating for more open-mindedness across healthcare professions moving forward. You can be sure that people won't dare speak negatively of PRI in my presence from now on!
Hello Adam, My health condition is exactly what you have described and I have also herniated disc. I want to know if these exercises solved your discomfort permanently. Thank you for your answer
Almost exact same case to both of you. I was blown off for years by physios and doctors while being in chronic pain. At times after a long day,I'd be on fire and low-key wishing for it all to end. I'm Immensely grateful to Connor posting these gems on assymetry positions as those symptoms are mostly gone now. Hoping it's the same for both of y'all!
@@Hikmetkarademir I have the same, what seems to help me the most is going to the gym and training unilaterally. Only one arm or leg at a time and really focus on doing every repetition perfectly with not too much weight so i can do exercises exactly the same on both sides. 3 sets for 15 repetitions slow and controlled. No exercises with a barbell or both legs doing the same thing (no squat, deadlift, etcetc) only dumbells if i wanna do bench press for example and so on, make sure your body cannot cheat because cheating(compensation) is how we got here in the first place
Conor this is brilliant. You clearly understand the pattern and your passion for explaining the mechanics is truly appreciated. Your language, approach and delivery are perfect, please keep doing what you are doing 🙏
What ever position youre in, round your left lower back, try bringing your right knee forward and left knee back (while keeping a relaxed and rounded left lower back) relax your jaw and your tongue (especially the back of your tongue), try having your whole head on the left side of your body turning (looking) right. Not an expert but this has worked for me.
I watched the hips lateral tilt video yesterday and followed the article to see what type of pattern I was in. All the tests pointed towards LEFT AIC. I did a few of the exercises and immediately had relief in both my hips and shoulders. For years I've felt twist and had both hip and shoulder pain. This video also confirmed that I'm a left aic and right bc pattern. Thank you so much for the videos and in-depth articles that can be easily followed.
@@conorharris I’m trying to figure out if I’m in a Right BC or Left AIC pattern?! All of my tension is in my Right side; tight Right Psoas, Right ITB, Right TFL, Right Ql, and Right Chest/Scalenes. What pattern would this lean towards? Any assistance you can provide is appreciated!
Conor, I read that the Right BC pattern usually manifests from an existing Left AIC pattern. Therefore, should I do the exercises/stretches/motions etc that target both "conditions"? Thank you for your work.
Please, keep making this series.. 🙏😇. You always explain everything so clearly, and take the time to put everything together in a format that's concise, to the point, and with many great after thoughts. Thank you 😁
Thank you, I've been practicing self release for 10 years and this presentation was very helpful. I thought I had piroformis syndrome starting years ago, then I self diagnosed an SI joint problem, now I see that the pain pattern matches what you are explaining here.
Great stuff! Just went to a person trained in Postural Restoration Therapy the other day and he gave me some exercises for Left AIC pattern in the pelvis. Was wondering if it is alright to start these exercises right along with pelvis exercises or if needed to do the pelvis was solely at first? Great content ad love the science behind it! As someone who likes to be very active and has dealt with these issues for several years, I really, really appreciate the content! Thanks again for your help!
You sir, are a lifesaver. Spent nearly a year with this issue trying to pinpoint it and finding answers like anterior pelvic tilt, etc. I even thought I'd destroyed my liver due to covid drinking! Thank you so much
I've felt imbalanced for ages, and its affecting even how i walk, or just feel when breathing, but for some reason I FELT like my right shoulder was higher, but today I checked and it looks like it's lower. It seems I have this left aic right bc pattern, but basically all muscle tightness is on ky right side.
Hey Conor, I'm a bit confused about the muscular positions. I'm having tensed up left lumbar muscles (left erector is more developed), although my upper body is more tilted to the left rather than the right. Is this generally more typical for Right BC pattern or Left AIC?
Hello Conor, thank you for the video, as a Weightlifting coach I'm finding your videos fascinating. Do you think this right BC pattern could be responsible for a asymmetric front rack position for cleans / front squats? I.e. barbell only resting on one clavicle?
Accompanied by weaker glutes(?) (bottocks and thigh) on the left side? Like your weight settles at some balance on your left toes, whereas on your right side, your weight is hitched at the hip bone (counterbalanced by the spine and right knee) and rested at the base of your feet (not toes).
Hey thanks so much for the great and informative video. I was wondering if it's possible to have almost this exact right BC pattern (weak R low trap, R scapular protraction, tighter R pec, obliques and QL, elevated R pelvis) with some differentiations, ie: my right shoulder is higher than left. Would that affect how it's treated? I saw your other video about uneven shoulders and how it relates to this but I'm a bit still unclear on what to do. z
Im so happy I found your video I have exactly this chest muscles like described rib cage but it goes all the way down to my leg and ass muscles too. Also cant see my lat right but I can left even my entire back muscles on one side seem much smaller. For me its very visible even with clothing on would really like to correct it.
If left AIC right BC pattern is the most common, then why is right thoracic scoliosis is most common as well? A left rotated thoracic spine with left shoulder higher as in right BC, it would be left thoracic scoliosis, no?
I am a 52-year-old woman that within a year my body has gotten so crooked my left rib cage is touching my left hip and it’s stuck and on my right side my stomach‘s bulged out and that’s where I have all the pain I was told that my muscles was weak but could that cause your whole body to be totally sideways bent to the left
Is this excercise will help to correct i m shifted to right side one side of my face cheeks is chubby right side nd my left cheeks is slim nd right side of my solder is tighter thhen left side nd my ribcage alsos shifted to right side then left side nd hips also right side hips is highter nd left side is weaker plz conor i want your suggestions this excercise will correct my problems? Due to this pbrlm means right shifted its all shows on my face my face look aymetric nd i m not natural born aymetric i born symetric face plz plz conor requesting u plz help me plz give me answer plz share ur suggestions with me i m waiting for ur reply plz 🫶🏻😭
I’m rotated to the left but also side bent to the left. My left chest feels compressed and the right side chest feels open. But my left scapula is closer to the spine and my right further away . Should I do the same exercises or the opposite?
This is very helpful for me but sir your own left shoulder length is shorter then the right one…..I have the same problem but my right shoulder is shorter then the left one??what should we do about that
I have been doing pri for about a year following neal, zack, and even Ron. But i must say it took me MONTHS to Understand them.. doing them same techniques with your explanation have worked so Much better … thank you! You have a gift!
I still dont understand what is happening to the trapezius of the side with the higher hip. If the right side of the pelvis is elevated than the same side shoulder is depressed. With that being said then the same side upper trapezius is in a stretched or under active position. Why then, during the right side lying right rib expansion do we need to put our right arm into the ground to activate the right tricep and right lower trap. What the hell is happening to what part of the right trapezius in the left aic right bc pattern ? Is it the upper or lower trapezius that needs work ? This shit is crazy.
Right upper trap in the basline L AIC/R BC is relatively underactive compared to the left. On the right, the low trap needs to work specifically in its function to improve the ability to maintain the scapula on the ribcage.
Q1 What if someone is at progressive stage of left aic / bc pattern .......in that case how will we resolve the issues .? Please Make video on this....though I know that will be a subjective or individual issue .....but I think in that case also first we need to align our pelvic orientation .....can you suggest certain exercises( like hooklying and slidewall stride) to put pelvis orientation to neutral position .....like in my case I am right bc pattern but not left aic ....,.........or should I try to get into left aic / bc pattern from the progressive stage I am right now in ...will that work??......please reply
CONOR WHERE ARE YOU LOCATED MY FRIEND! Had AN injury, and now I am totally twisted to the right, and I fall forward within 10 seconds walking. L literally just bought a walking stick to hold up the right side. I do your exercises for oblique torsion, Sadly, I can’t even do the leg lift extension. What do I buy lol.
Could it make sense that a right BCP pattern could lead to pain in the inner bottom part of the right elbow during push movements? For one reason or another my right triceps long head is always twitching and in need of muscle release. It hurts at my tendon in my elbow connected to my triceps long head. Any help is much appreciated once again! Great content!
Yes, it could. Probably a situation where the distal humerus is doing something different and/or significantly opposing the action of the proximal forearm. Not uncommon, but I'd still want that right chest wall to expand. DM me on IG and I can link you a drill I think could help
I had a grade 3 separation so my shoudker always hung, and 20nyears later i have nerve compression on neck and shoulder. My AIC if off, from things like single DB and hang cleans. Squats. Tl all things thay caused a sever imbalance. Now I can't do kich of anything. My pow bakc hurts and right leg is weak. Address your issues because eyiu get to my condition. I went everywhere and no PT. CHIRO, INJECtion helped me. 10 mrios and no doctors could tell me anything, even though I should them hiw imbalanced I am.
I feel I have left AIC as my pelvis points to the right but with upper body it feels opposite then whats explained here. My right side feels excessively externally rotated and my left side is internally rotated. More so from my visits to PT they said my left shoulder is depressed. I feel like Im missing the counter rotation component and my upper body just rotates towards the right. I try to lay back against a wall/bench and my left side refuses to stay back
Hi Conor, I have a left bc pattern (inner rotation) and have all of the symptoms you described. I finally found what I was looking for, thank you again. One question: My left shoe is more "worn" on the heel, does that mean a "left bc pattern"? Best regards from germany.
Hi Connor , For many years I was unable to progress on pull ups, I have always felt somewhat uneven during the motion, the same case with barbell squats. Then I discovered that it originates from the right BC pattern, I am a textbook example. Really need to fix this issue. Thanks for your video
Wow, so much helpful information. 😮❤ As I'm suffering from scoliosis - and everything you mentioned in the video above - I also suffer from uneven clavicles. Do you have any suggestions for that? I also have pectus excavatum.
@conorharris Hi Conor, thanks for your videos. They give me hope. A quick question about your saying "can't get somewhere when you're already there". Like the right shoulder is already internally rotated so internal rotation is limited. Makes sense. But in your video about the left aic you for example say that the right side of the pelvic is in internal rotation (if I remember correctly). But still the straight leg raise (standing for internal rotation movement) on the right side is supposed to be better (because of the already existing internal rotation of the pelvic being in a left aic pattern). Why is that so? If the right side is already in internal rotation shouldn't you have bad internal rotation measurements cause "you're already there"? Appreciate your answer! Thx!
Same man, I have all 4 wisdom teeth in still, driving me up a wall. Get it taken care of man if you can, it’s not worth the mental health problems to have jaw/teeth & full body problems.
@ConorHaris will these exercises help with the bottom part of the shoulder blade to stop protruding out on your back? I have this issue now, and it is starting to hurt really bad..
What about having very similar issues with the upper body BUT having a posterior pelvic tilt? I have a lot of pain around the spine and scapular on the right and my right side of the neck hurts too. The scapular region pain was very severe for years - i could only function on painkillers. Today its better but my right scapular sort of "pops" out all the time and my arm is impared. Yes i have seen a shitton of doctors :,D
There are additional compensations that build on top of this. This is a baseline before individual differences take place, but I would recommend you try the assessments and see where you’re at
Is it possible to have “left bc pattern”? I have literally exactly this but my right shoulder is higher and slightly forward. This also makes back exercises favor my right half and my middle lower back is significantly stronger on my right side. Thank you for your help.
Pretty positive i have left aic and right bc. To confirm one thing, would a person who skateboards in regular stance (leaning on left leg forward, pushing with right leg backwards) enforce left aic right bc more? Or would we actually be doing the opposite and i have imbalance because my body was to weak on the left side to handle what i was doing so it compensated? The only thing throwing me off of me thinking i have this is the fact that i did do that stance for 20 years (quad on left side is big, pec is big on left side, pain all over left side from neck to foot)
Is it possible to have right bc pattern without left AIC? It seems I do not fit the left AIC (going by your video- it seems I have more right forward pelvis along with right lateral tilt meaning the whole body is rotated to left or so it seems) but I do fit the right BC (again by your video)? Whats the approach to sort it out?
Hi Connor great stuff! Just one question, should I also feel tighter left neck muscles(feeling of shortened in a way) if I have Right BC Pattern? Thanks a lot for these vids!
I don’t get it I watch the left one and the right , and in both versions the right shoulder is more far away how can that be? My right shoulder is higher up and it’s more tight. But I have Horrible sciatica down my left leg
Does a left BC pattern exist? Because my left hip is higher than my right as well as my left shoulder is forward and internally rotated where my rotate is back.
Madness, I've watched many vids on this subject and didn't associate what I feel at times in my ribs with the overall problem. Unmistakable compressed feeling, I'm an idiot! Could one of the knock-on effects of it be rib dislocation? The osteo I see often finds a few of mine so, could be coincidence but I'm seeing this now with fresh eyes. Thanks so much for these vids, I'm staying tuned.
I have all these issues to a tee, same with the pelvis and lower body tests. It's come to the point where my left meniscus is torn medially, right glutes don't want to fire, knots galore in my right lat and behind shoulder blades, poor shoulder mobility, rounded shoulders..all the above. I want to keep training in the gym.. are there certain exercises to avoid? Should I focus on unilateral stuff for a while before bilateral movements? Are there certain exercises I can take advantage of? Your help is very much appreciated!
Rt side sciatica, leg feels rotated out. Low back pain and rt foot feels like flatness or rotating in and down. Is this what I need to do? I'm confused
Wow, watching how they grew one cup in less than a month was admittedly shocking, I used what I talked about the other day, and well it actually took about 6 weeks for them to totally grow by two cups, I just go’ogled Mika Klopsworth and now the looks I get are so worth it.
Is it possible to have this left aic or right bc on the opposite sides? Because ever since my left rotator cuff injury I have had the exact same same issues but flipped my left shoulder droops and my scapula wings on that side while my right shoulder is higher up and is closer to my spine. Would treatment be same if this is the case?
I have seen you instuct having the book under left hand (seen in the article on right BC) or left knee like this video. Are they the same or what is the difference?
I love your videos Conor. I'm am a 69 yr old female diagnosed with moderate s curve scoliosis 3 yrs ago. I have a high right hip AND high right shoulder with right thorasic rotation and left translation in my posture when walking. I know this is not usual and Im getting confused as to which exercises would be helpful. Can you recommend anything??
Mr coror thanks for your detailed information but a question can i have right PC without having left AIC if so the case i recently developed right pc when i checked if i have uneven hips Infront of mirror my hips seemed levelled but my shoulders still seemed uneven my right shoulder seemed lower and slightly curved forward sometimes my left upper trap seems thicker and higher
How is the pec major an external rotator? It pulls the shoulder internal right, except when the shoulder is fixated. . Help me out on this one please 😅
Hi Conor In your experience with the body being stuck in these patterns can it have an impact on medial ankle pain? I can’t jog any more as I have to much medial ankle pain (right ankle ) I also have pain and limited left shoulder rom

Right upper trap in the basline L AIC/R BC is relatively underactive compared to the left. On the right, the low trap needs to work specifically in its function to improve the ability to maintain the scapula on the ribcage.
This video is all about me ,thank you so much 😊
Any thoughts as to how many reps etc for each? Thank you.
👍🏿👏🏿🙏🏿
Q1 What if someone is at progressive stage of left aic / bc pattern .......in that case how will we resolve the issues .? Please Make video on this....though I know that will be a subjective or individual issue .....but I think in that case also first we need to align our pelvic orientation .....can you suggest certain exercises( like hooklying and slidewall stride) to put pelvis orientation to neutral position .....like in my case I am right bc pattern but not left aic ....,.........or should I try to get into left aic / bc pattern from the progressive stage I am right now in ...will that work??......please reply

شكرا جزيلا على كل هذا الشرح المفصل
CONOR WHERE ARE YOU LOCATED MY FRIEND! Had AN injury, and now I am totally twisted to the right, and I fall forward within 10 seconds walking. L literally just bought a walking stick to hold up the right side. I do your exercises for oblique torsion, Sadly, I can’t even do the leg lift extension. What do I buy lol.
Could it make sense that a right BCP pattern could lead to pain in the inner bottom part of the right elbow during push movements? For one reason or another my right triceps long head is always twitching and in need of muscle release. It hurts at my tendon in my elbow connected to my triceps long head. Any help is much appreciated once again! Great content!
Yes, it could. Probably a situation where the distal humerus is doing something different and/or significantly opposing the action of the proximal forearm. Not uncommon, but I'd still want that right chest wall to expand. DM me on IG and I can link you a drill I think could help
I had a grade 3 separation so my shoudker always hung, and 20nyears later i have nerve compression on neck and shoulder. My AIC if off, from things like single DB and hang cleans. Squats. Tl all things thay caused a sever imbalance. Now I can't do kich of anything. My pow bakc hurts and right leg is weak. Address your issues because eyiu get to my condition. I went everywhere and no PT. CHIRO, INJECtion helped me. 10 mrios and no doctors could tell me anything, even though I should them hiw imbalanced I am.
How often are you meant to be doing these exercises?
I feel I have left AIC as my pelvis points to the right but with upper body it feels opposite then whats explained here. My right side feels excessively externally rotated and my left side is internally rotated. More so from my visits to PT they said my left shoulder is depressed. I feel like Im missing the counter rotation component and my upper body just rotates towards the right. I try to lay back against a wall/bench and my left side refuses to stay back
Hi Conor,
I have a left bc pattern (inner rotation) and have all of the symptoms you described. I finally found what I was looking for, thank you again.
One question: My left shoe is more "worn" on the heel, does that mean a "left bc pattern"?
Best regards from germany.
Hi! How about psoas muscles on that situation?
Hi Connor ,
For many years I was unable to progress on pull ups, I have always felt somewhat uneven during the motion, the same case with barbell squats.
Then I discovered that it originates from the right BC pattern, I am a textbook example.
Really need to fix this issue.
Thanks for your video
Wow, so much helpful information. 😮❤ As I'm suffering from scoliosis - and everything you mentioned in the video above - I also suffer from uneven clavicles. Do you have any suggestions for that? I also have pectus excavatum.
Hi, could you done a video on a left higher hip?....It's my problem thanks.
@conorharris Hi Conor, thanks for your videos. They give me hope. A quick question about your saying "can't get somewhere when you're already there". Like the right shoulder is already internally rotated so internal rotation is limited. Makes sense. But in your video about the left aic you for example say that the right side of the pelvic is in internal rotation (if I remember correctly). But still the straight leg raise (standing for internal rotation movement) on the right side is supposed to be better (because of the already existing internal rotation of the pelvic being in a left aic pattern). Why is that so? If the right side is already in internal rotation shouldn't you have bad internal rotation measurements cause "you're already there"? Appreciate your answer! Thx!
Unfortunately I have a jaw/teeth issue which is keeping me in the pattern
Same man, I have all 4 wisdom teeth in still, driving me up a wall. Get it taken care of man if you can, it’s not worth the mental health problems to have jaw/teeth & full body problems.
Did u fix ur teeth issues ? Did you get any better if u did?
Sorry sorry??? What's the difference from the left to the right you just explained the same thing???
@ConorHaris will these exercises help with the bottom part of the shoulder blade to stop protruding out on your back? I have this issue now, and it is starting to hurt really bad..
What about having very similar issues with the upper body BUT having a posterior pelvic tilt?
I have a lot of pain around the spine and scapular on the right and my right side of the neck hurts too. The scapular region pain was very severe for years - i could only function on painkillers. Today its better but my right scapular sort of "pops" out all the time and my arm is impared. Yes i have seen a shitton of doctors :,D
There are additional compensations that build on top of this. This is a baseline before individual differences take place, but I would recommend you try the assessments and see where you’re at
@@conorharris thank you very much! I wIll do that. Hope to see more ppt content, too. Amazing channel!
Is it possible to have “left bc pattern”? I have literally exactly this but my right shoulder is higher and slightly forward. This also makes back exercises favor my right half and my middle lower back is significantly stronger on my right side. Thank you for your help.
Pretty positive i have left aic and right bc. To confirm one thing, would a person who skateboards in regular stance (leaning on left leg forward, pushing with right leg backwards) enforce left aic right bc more? Or would we actually be doing the opposite and i have imbalance because my body was to weak on the left side to handle what i was doing so it compensated? The only thing throwing me off of me thinking i have this is the fact that i did do that stance for 20 years (quad on left side is big, pec is big on left side, pain all over left side from neck to foot)
Dear Conor, could this compression on the ribcage lead to Thoracic Outlet Syndrome symptoms
Is it possible to have right bc pattern without left AIC? It seems I do not fit the left AIC (going by your video- it seems I have more right forward pelvis along with right lateral tilt meaning the whole body is rotated to left or so it seems) but I do fit the right BC (again by your video)? Whats the approach to sort it out?
Hi Conor,
My chiro had put a shoe lift in orthotic under my right foot. Shouldn’t it be under my left foot since I’m heavy RBC?
does it cause the right leg to get/seem longer?
Wow! What an amazing tutorial! You broke down BC perfectly & it helped me find exactly what some of my massage clients were dealing with. Thank you!!!
I have every symptom.. except my left shoulder is pulled forward.. and I constantly have a cramp in my left scapula
Hi Connor great stuff! Just one question, should I also feel tighter left neck muscles(feeling of shortened in a way) if I have Right BC Pattern? Thanks a lot for these vids!
Yeah i have that. My neck turns towards the night easily. But has a limiting feelings when turning to the left side
would you suggest fixing the AIC pattern first?
I noticed I fall right back into the pattern after a few hours of sitting
I don’t get it I watch the left one and the right , and in both versions the right shoulder is more far away how can that be?
My right shoulder is higher up and it’s more tight. But I have Horrible sciatica down my left leg
Wowww this was the recommendation by youtube and i was suffering this imbalance from long time and all i needed is to fix it... Good job ❤️
Does a left BC pattern exist? Because my left hip is higher than my right as well as my left shoulder is forward and internally rotated where my rotate is back.
Madness, I've watched many vids on this subject and didn't associate what I feel at times in my ribs with the overall problem. Unmistakable compressed feeling, I'm an idiot! Could one of the knock-on effects of it be rib dislocation? The osteo I see often finds a few of mine so, could be coincidence but I'm seeing this now with fresh eyes. Thanks so much for these vids, I'm staying tuned.
I have all these issues to a tee, same with the pelvis and lower body tests. It's come to the point where my left meniscus is torn medially, right glutes don't want to fire, knots galore in my right lat and behind shoulder blades, poor shoulder mobility, rounded shoulders..all the above.
I want to keep training in the gym.. are there certain exercises to avoid? Should I focus on unilateral stuff for a while before bilateral movements? Are there certain exercises I can take advantage of? Your help is very much appreciated!
But can one correct this? I have scoliosis but it doesn’t hurt . And face asymmetry which I hate :/
17:20 this could be kneeling.... I have programmed this for Kneeling. I like the standing one.
Make a video about the cervical part too, Love from india.

What if you're trying to fix a higher left hip and don't want to increase that issue? Minute 17:01
Rt side sciatica, leg feels rotated out. Low back pain and rt foot feels like flatness or rotating in and down. Is this what I need to do? I'm confused
Wow, watching how they grew one cup in less than a month was admittedly shocking, I used what I talked about the other day, and well it actually took about 6 weeks for them to totally grow by two cups, I just go’ogled Mika Klopsworth and now the looks I get are so worth it.
Perfect explanation. Pri save my life, but it takes time to understand everythink.
Please do some more videos and exercises
Appreciate the support!
Is it possible to have this left aic or right bc on the opposite sides? Because ever since my left rotator cuff injury I have had the exact same same issues but flipped my left shoulder droops and my scapula wings on that side while my right shoulder is higher up and is closer to my spine. Would treatment be same if this is the case?
My pecs and upper traps fire like crazy when performing the all four breathing . Any tips on how to target this restriction?
I have seen you instuct having the book under left hand (seen in the article on right BC) or left knee like this video. Are they the same or what is the difference?
If I have a right BC pattern should I also be performing exercises to correct a left AIC pattern simultaneously?
Why do I hear a heaving sound coming out of my throat when I rotate my upper body Conor? It is worrying me.
I love your videos Conor. I'm am a 69 yr old female diagnosed with moderate s curve scoliosis 3 yrs ago. I have a high right hip AND high right shoulder with right thorasic rotation and left translation in my posture when walking. I know this is not usual and Im getting confused as to which exercises would be helpful. Can you recommend anything??

Mr coror thanks for your detailed information but a question can i have right PC without having left AIC if so the case i recently developed right pc when i checked if i have uneven hips Infront of mirror my hips seemed levelled but my shoulders still seemed uneven my right shoulder seemed lower and slightly curved forward sometimes my left upper trap seems thicker and higher
How is the pec major an external rotator? It pulls the shoulder internal right, except when the shoulder is fixated. . Help me out on this one please 😅
Hi Conor
In your experience with the body being stuck in these patterns can it have an impact on medial ankle pain? I can’t jog any more as I have to much medial ankle pain (right ankle ) I also have pain and limited left shoulder rom
This is gold. Thank you for this information.
Thanks for watching!
