      REALLY great one √√ -- BUT to give it even MORE depth you should have pinpointed those areas graphically you were talking about, since many viewers (incl, myself …;-)) are NOT familiar w/ the medical-terms/names …;-)) Maybe you could still add them ?? Else: TOOOO pity, since the Tutorial is REALLY -»GREAT one √√

    I have been doing this routine for a month, 5-6 days a week,takes about 30 minutes. I noticed a great improvement, always suffered with hip pain while squating with weights, now I am getting back to squating without discomfort. Really changed the game for me, much appreciated, Daniel.

  • @juraj7724
    @juraj7724 4 роки тому +18

    This is great. I have been doing this every morning for the last 14 days. Takes about 35 minutes but I do everything super carefully plus also a few other stretches. I can say it works, I got much better in most of the exercises from the routine. My squat feels better as well although I feel I still need more mobility in my ankles and my hips. Therefore I am now switching to another squat routine from this channel that focuses on those (the video is called "The Squat Solution (FULL MOBILITY ROUTINE!)").
    One tip: If you do this, you need to be very deliberate. Be present when you exercise. You get out only as much as you put in.

    Dude. This made a huge difference to my balance. My right hip and leg would usually over dominate the left, and I tried various things from stretches to highly concentrated leg/knee lift variations off the dip bar. The bridge and knee-to-wall were the best exercises for me (the ones I never knew about until now); rebalanced and stabilized. Now I have balance between each side of my hip and overall, legs.And I've been in the game for a decade.Thanks Daniel!

Doctor told me to expect worsening of symptoms between 3 and 6 months, before it gets better.. we'll see.. but I feel much improvement already. I am allowed to squat but only to add 2 kg to the bar every 2 sessions.. right now I'm at 36 kg (lol) but the point is that movement is much better,, and I don't feel any impingement when squatting into the hole.... fingers crossed :) cheers

    I've been working on squat mobility for about 8 months with only minor improvements. This is so different than other tutorials I've found, and I've been starting to suspect that for me shin strength is part of the problem. This has me realizing how much more could be involved. Pretty excited to try this.

  • @JoshuaTMagee

    Question for Daniel (or anyone else): when this routine says, for example, "Glute Bridge, 2 x 10 L/R," does that mean to do each side for one set of 10, or to do sets of ten on both sides twice? Also, in the final OH Squat exercise, should I do the 20-second hold only after the last of the three sets, or at the end of each set? Thank you!

    • @MrThatonebitch
      @MrThatonebitch 6 років тому +1

      Lift your arm straight in front of you as high as you can, if you have good range of motion with your arm straight then it’s probably not your shoulder. Do this movement again with your arm bent, with your hand on your shoulder. (Try not to force the motion, you could start arching your back to assist if there are mobility issues, do the movement as far as your body can, not as far as you force it. This is just a test anyway) If it does not have good range of motion, or feels uncomfortable in the tricep/posterior shoulder area, it might be tight triceps. If it isn’t the triceps, and your shoulder still feels off, then unfortunately you’re back at square one. Good luck! Hopefully it’s just tight triceps, that’s an easy fix but important to always warmup and stretch your whole body!

      @LAGman91 6 років тому +17

      Dont force something that you are not even a bit comfortable to begin with. It's a matter of Hip mobility AKA the capsule and how your femur (the bone the quad sits on) fits in there. In your case and mine, a little rotation is needed.

    • @byReZio
      @byReZio 6 років тому +1

      Your hip external rotation is probably limited, that's why you have to turn your feet out to be able to squat deep. Look at some hip external rotation mobility exercises and stretches.
