    Yo Coach E (my coach's name 🙂) just wanna say thanks for what you do. I found you about 8 years ago trying to fix terrible posture. This last year i finally got serious. Watching your videos you taught me how to intuitively rebuild my internal structures. I got a power tower and basically have been doing scapular exercises with it, all straight armed - no bending elbows. Push ups, wide pull ups, dips, rows, basically an exercise in every direction and my upper back/shoulders have never felt better (even rotator cuff damaged from years of baseball and football have disappeared!) . You taught me to strengthen systematically to realign vs stretching my way out. So impressed I even bought your knee pain solution and felt immediate relief! Even with D1 collegiate weight training they never focused on the material you present. It's in line with the way Seattle's Ichiro trained for lengevity with the Mariners. So many injuries could be prevented if they incorporated more of this kind of training. If you wanna fix your issues, just do it y'all. Get the hang of it and its a short daily routine to feel better for life 🙂. Much love Coach E!

    I love that you explain the cause of the problem before showing the exercises and I also love that you share the varieties.
    In the beginning you said that when you lift your arm overhead and you have rounded shoulder you feel pinching that could be on the bursae, the rotator cuff tendons or the joint capsule . But I want to ask you, could it pinch the biceps tendon? I think i feel such a pinch during pull ups . Just to share that I have poor posture and I am a skinny guy

    • @PrecisionMovementCoach
      @PrecisionMovementCoach  6 місяців тому

      The biceps tendon can definitely be pinched in that situation.

    This all makes sense to me. I will give it a try. The medical community has come up with simply resetting the muscle memory with gentle movement. I received a cortisone shoulder injection 6 days ago. I have been mistreated for decades in this area and was at one point on a bunch of painkillers. Just a horrible way of life. I'll try a few of the other exercises too. The New York Times has a recommended morning stretching routine that makes sense too. It seems like it may be Pilates based. From one Thanks Coach 🙏

Any suggestions on how to start as i have no idea what i am doing. I use a mobility scooteer for my back,neck & feet pain. I have started to walk,can't walk far but more each time. Instead of 10mins of continuinal walking now i can do 15-20mins on a good day with many stops along the way. I am walking but my back is not straight or my shoulders. I have a belly. Any suggestions on how to walk better,straghter back/shoulder posture?

      Hi!
      Thanks for watching the video and trying it out. Do the exercises 2- 3 times weekly and pay close attention to your posture the rest of the time. It will soon become easier to achieve a more neutral posture with time and practice.
      A trick I love is that I try to touch the ceiling or sky with the top of my head no matter where I am. It feels like I'm growing taller. Try that out and let us know how it goes.

    I might be a little late to this video, but on the third exercise which asks to internally rotate your shoulders: my left shoulder (which is also primarily my problem shoulder) sticks out more forward than my right and can’t internally rotate as far as my right without pain. Should I only go as far as pain free and continue with the exercise? Or should I do something else?

    Would it be a valid option to replace the ball on the wall by pinching the muscle with one hand and stretch the opposite one, and then maybe switch. Or using a method similar to the SMR technique with the fingers presented in other exercises? I understand it may be less efficient but it would then be possible to do these exercises with just a wall. Following this same line of thought, do you have a video that gives exercises for spinal posture/rounded shoulders that could be easily done at the office ? ( that is, minimal in terms of external requirements and space used)
    Thanks!
