Thank you, so important information. There should be a computer animation that illustrates the breathing process with the pelvic floor and diaphragm. If there is, I have unfortunately not yet found it.
Luqman Bukhari posted a video a few weeks ago titled 3D Animation: Depicting the Coordination between the diaphragm and pelvic floor muscles. I hope that's helpful.
I appreciate the information shared in your videos. The relaxing of pelvic floor information would be very helpful as hypertonic muscles are difficult to release. Most discussions are about how to tone.
THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!! I've been trying to find this explanation for quite some time. I am so happy I found your channel, I am subbing right away!
So what would be the relationship between "passive exhale" and "breath control?" I'm just wondering how to apply this knowledge proper breath support for speaking. Any help would be appreciated! Thanks!
I would check out my breathing playlist! ua-cam.com/play/PLwg9cyaP7dlzGZ1f6RZ2RLHHkcifoRFeT.html&si=ic7vaWN9cNuzBmmL Let me know if you have further questions after watching!
Thank you:) does in practice diaphragm actually contracts down when we’re “relaxing on the coach” if we’re all flexed and upper belly is compressed? And also does the diaphragm actually contract down if we’re chest breathing? My guess is it’s not a given that diaphragm contracts / contracts down and we need to work on the motion it going down in coordination with eccentric abdominal and PF muscles, and also strengthening it as other muscles for stamina and strength?
So, the diaphragm contracts down unless it's paralyzed. How much and in which area can very based on position and breathing patterns. But, your right, having an effective diaphragm contraction takes work, including eccentric ab and PF control. You're spot on!
So, when we inhale, do our belly rise up first, below belly button and then breath goes up like wave or when we take a breath, our ribs expand lateral and we send that air down to the pelvic floor. I ask this beacuse if I breath first in my ribs lateral, I end up with neck and shoulders breathing?
Ribs and belly should be mostly equal! I would explore seeing if you need to work on some release work on your sides! I would explore with this exercise! ua-cam.com/video/KXVVgA0ZLMk/v-deo.html
Hi. Do you know why my pelvic floor would be contracting on inhalation rather than descending. It's also making it very hard to breathe because it feels as though it is resisting the downward movement of the diaphragm.
It sounds like you have developed a reverse breathing pattern. Follow this link to find someone in person near you to help you! www.coreexercisesolutions.com/pces/
I have a question ! Does a hiatal hernia have anything to do with the pelvic floor ??? I know a weak diaphragm is the reason why my stomach keeps pushing through the hiatus. But I have seen videos where the pelvic floor has something to do with a hiatal hernia as well. I might have a weak pelvic floor! I have noticed also I do NOT make it to the restroom when I pee! I almost always always pee in my underwear and I am only 30 years old ! So the diaphragm and pelvic floor are correlated ! I had no idea ! Do you have any tips for a hiatal hernia ? I am trying to heal myself ! Please, Thank you so much ! 🤍🤍🤍🧘🏻♀️
So, increased pelvic floor tension can prevent full diaphragm expansion. Tension also goes hand in hand with having to run to the bathroom. For a hiatal hernia, I really like to work on breathing and pressure management. You might like our program - www.coreexercisesolutions.com/pelvic-floor/
@@CoreExerciseSolutions thank you so much ! Which program for the hiatal hernia ? Or what exactly am I looking for on the website for help ? Thank you so much ! 🤍🧘🏻♀️
So when I'm exercising(eg running) how should I be breathing? Right now I just breath however I can to keep going. I can't do the deep breathing obviously, so can you give me any tips? I want to do what's best for my pelvic floor but I also have to keep in mind my PRI neutrality. Help please?
This is a great question! You may want to play around with intervals - run as far as a you can doing great breaths - breathing in through your nose if you can - and then walk when you find that you are struggling to get great breaths. I have a great Return to Running program in my All Access Membership - email info@coreexercisesolutions.com for more info 😊
So am I correct in thinking that in weight lifting (squats particularly) we should either exhale as we lift the weight or do you suggest holding breath after the exhale?

So well explained thank you!
Great and clear explanation. Matt the pilates teacher.

I will add it to the list!
I also have these videos as well

This was very helpful information, thank you!

@@CoreExerciseSolutions thank you so much for your answer! I’m trying to make sense of things that theoretically I know, but I wonder…:)
if you have poor coordination between diaphragm and abdomen would exercises would you recommend

Would squeezing the pelvic floor muscles while exhaling, and releasing while inhaling be a good way to strengthen them?
Yes!
