      Personally, same topic but going more in depth with when to schedule this routine in an overall strength program and how to progress it ( not talking about easiest/hardest version, but how to improve in time every single exercise).
      Thanks again and happy new year!

      Could you talk about the next progression. Like what are good compound movements to perform that will continue to enhance stability.
      For example I understand my lower trap is a stabilizer for scapular decompression. The behind the neck snatch grip over head press is a favorite moment of the famous Olympic lifter Klokov - I believe this movement is great for working the lower trap but conversely many therapists talk about how bad this movement is for the joint. Meanwhile you also have the knees over toe camp promoting extreme range of movement strength, it's confusing.

    2:57 Lay down, arm extended, hold a kettlebell upside down, twist 5-ish times, turn onto your side and do again
    4:30 Kneel, hold a kettlebell overhead, arm straight, other hand touches ground
    6:50 Straight arm plank, widen feet, touch your opposite shoulders, hold 5-10 secs (longer as you improve)

      Late reply but get into Reverse Hypers, hamstring strengthening, and psoas mobility/releasing. Had a bulging disc 10 years ago, was deadlifting 515 back then. Ever since I got it fixed been into lower back stability via hamstring strengthening, psoas mobility, and various reverse hyper extensions (isometric, gradual decline, resistance bands, etc) and can confidently say my lower back is the strongest part of my body. Once per week do a routine with leg day. Reverse hypers do 3 days a week
      Edit: and certain yoga poses, my favorite being Pigeon pose and backbends

    I was doing incline dumbbell press and my shoulder locked and I felt my shoulder ligaments for the first time in my life. That was scary and thankfully based on what im feeling two days later it was just a strain. I do feel some loosening in my shoulder but no sharp pain.
    I will do these stability exercises asap.

    Great content as always. So much of this information would benefit the climbing community. Now that training is becoming the corner stone of sending more difficult projects for the average climber, I have seen more and more people getting injured due to the fact that climbing training is still new and still trying to catch up due to popularity, funding, and interest, I find it important to create bridges in sports performance. It would be awesome if you did a video with the dude from hoopers beta youtube channel. Stellar stuff. Cheers.

    as always, very good information. you're amazing.
    usually you pinpoint all the questions I may have about a certain exercise, but in this case Im unsure about a couple of things. Probably just me. But anyone can feel free to explain this to me, I would appreciate it.
    The first exercises with and without the kettlebell, and forgive me because Im not great with anatomy terms in english. Are you supposed to keep the shoulder blade depressed and abducted while you hold your arm straight? Or are you supposed to extend the arm towards the ceiling as long as you can, almost?
    I still try to understand the human anatomy and fix my shoulder and knee issus, so I still lack all the knowledge I need to inuitively know how to engage proper muscles and form to perfom varies kind of movements and exercises.
    Thanks to anyone who take their time to respond! Have a nice day all

      Im not sure if I explain it to you properly because of launguage barrier but he simply put the band through the kettle and hanged both ends on a bar. Its one band for one side of the barbell but he looped it. Look at 9:55.

    @Ova-bv4os 2 роки тому +1

    I'm going to give this try. my left shoulder has a mind of its own. i can never make symmetrical movements when doing cable press or chest supported rows or even bicep curls. when i initiate a row, I can actually see my shoulder slightly pulling out of place, leaving a hollow. my right shoulder and back engages immediately but my left stretches out of places first no matter how hard I try to activate the muscles around it.

      @@Zaacckk actually yes
      In short, the exercises in the video did help, particular in building up my brains ability to activate those muscles during regular exercise and now my issue with the left shoulder pulling out of place is completely gone, i couldn't make it move like that again if i tried.
      however there was something else that also helped in the most frustrating way possible that is no fault of the exercise above. I injured the front delt of my healthy shoulder at work and during the weeks and months i was working out while waiting for it to heal, my initial issue corrected itself because my left side became dominant during pull days and the muscles in my back and shoulder learned to work together to carry the load. now i have a different problem. Raised right shoulder with pain and weakness, scapular winging and no mind muscle connection to my back muscles on that side lol.
      Its a never ending journey to symmetry for me
