    The active release tip worked wonders for me just with my own finger pressure. Thank you!
    Side note, it's become apparent to me over the course of my fitness journey that knowing basic muscular anatomy works wonders for being able to pinpoint aches, strains, etc. before they develop into more serious conditions.

    Man, I've struggled to find self release techniques for the Supraspinatus online. Your video not only explains where it is, but you go in detail with the technique to massage it. Great job!

    I've been trying to massage this muscle for like 3 days now with the lacrosse ball and never got it to release, I only ended up with bruises and more surface level pain. Moving my arm while using a theracane worked like a god damn charm, and will be my go-to method for this muscle from now on. I can actually feel it loosening up!!! Thankyou!!

    I have chronic supraspinatus tendonitis and nothing seems to have helped iv done the anti inflammatorys, 2 cortisone injections, physiotherapy, chiropractor, deep tissue massages iv had it nearly 5 years now just wish it would go away. If your young and just starting in the gym dont be an ego lifter be smart

  • @Hypnotica144
    @Hypnotica144 5 років тому +1

    What is not being understood here, is that the reason he is talking about the suprispinatus, could be that he himself has a sore suprispinatus. And that would not be surprising, because the way he is holding his arms out to the side require his suprispinatus muscles to be constantly activated. He probably stands like this every waking minute. Meanwhile he's talking about which 'purely physical approach' that 'you' should use to get rid of 'your problem'. And he doesn't realise that the reason his arms are held out like that are because of some inner conflict about looking 'bigger' or 'higher status'. And that's not an insult, because it's very common, can relate, and you look at anyone's arms, they're a little more out to the side than necessary. So anyway, if he'd just take a moment to let his arms experience the inner position, with arms closer to the side, and suprispinatus almost off, only really stabilizing, then he would relax that area, and simultaneously relax the mind conflict causing him to do in the first place.

    I have a minor rotator cuff tear due to which I cant do overhead movements. I am doing all the exercises you mentioned in your other videos to fix the rolled shoulders. Will the tear and pain go away with time once the posture comes into alignment or do I have to do the release techniques as well? Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks

      Hey! My fisio thinks I might have a tear in the superspinatus. Where is your shoulder pain? My pain is located on the anterior region of the shoulder, rather than the posterior region, where most of the superspinatus is located. Is it the same with you?

    What exactly does it mean to "release" a muscle?

    • @Jovahkiiin
      @Jovahkiiin 7 років тому +1

      It means to either relieve its tightening effect, eg. overcontracted tissue thats stuck and trapped in a shortened position, or to get rid of muscle knots or adhesion like scar tissue.

      @georgeberi1565 5 років тому

      I had that issue, one day after a normal push workout I got tendonitis and a small tear in my rotator cuff. Months later I am still recovering and have tendonitis in this tendon. Pinch your shoulders back before pushing and shoulders back always when lifting. Look into avoiding rotator cuff issues and strengthening the area. Save yourself, please
