      Hello Glen! The shoulder can be a stubborn area, it takes a lot of time and patience to build up again! Usually a lot of band work, moderate to high reps, with very little resistance does the trick. Have you had it seen by a professional?

      @@BodyweightMuscle Sure. To quote you, "The key to any really good warm-up is progressing as gradually into the exercise as possible w/ more and more specificity". You got it right. Just didn't show it. Everything you demonstrate her is level 2 and 3 prep. We first must do level 1. Non to low impact full body movements that bring up core temp, gets blood into the muscles, and starting the joint lubrication process. After 5 or so minutes of this (5 being the minimum-some people need more), we can move into the exercise you show here, but not necessarily in the order you show. Door stretch should be at the end just before band assist pull-ups, same for dislocations. What you call cervical spine needs more explanation and coaching, and probably better off done further down the line. What you call "straight elbow push-ups are a solid level 2 if done on all 4's, but doing from a plank position puts them in level 3. So they should come after candy wrappers, and a person should first do them on all 4's then go to plank.

      @@oldnatty61 Hi Oldnatty, thank you for taking the time to get back to me. I’ll break down your points in alphabetical alignment so we have some structure.
      a. You say that I don’t progress gradually into the exercise, which I disagree with since I have various progression. There are even band-assisted reps in the end, so how much more progressive can a warm-up be?
      b. Regarding level 1 warm-up, I skipped over that since this video was more about targeted warming up for pull-ups. I think jogging is less important than mobility work and gradual loading of the specific joints we want to use.
      c. Regarding static stretching, it’s best to keep static stretching at the beginning of a warm-up since stretching before concentric movement with high load (or dynamic stuff like plyometrics) has shown to increase the risk of injury (there are decent studies on this topic that prove this).
      d. I didn’t understand your comment regarding the cervical spine.
      e. Regarding the rest of your comments on exercise order, here’s the main idea I use that seems to work great.
      The main idea behind my warm-ups is that you start with light static stretching followed with more dynamic stretches and mobility routines. The static stretching helps with restriction that might be an obstacle of doing the targeted exercise.
      When it comes to static stretching, think of your NMS as a protective system that overreacts by keeping a muscle tight if you make a sudden move that involves ROMs that your body is not used to. It also sometimes overreacts by keeping areas tight due to old injuries, bad posture, or fear against new movement patterns.
      Therefore, light static stretching is the first step for helping your body loosen up and increase your range of motion.
      Next, dynamic stretches and mobility drills increase the temperature and blood flow in soft-tissues enough (without level 1 work as you said, unless it's very cold temperature-wise) making them more elastic, while also lubricating your joints (meaning promoting the flow of synovial fluid in them) to decrease unwanted friction and strains that can be caused by sudden moves when the body is unprepared.
      The goal once you’re done, is that spine, limbs and joints should move without experiencing restriction, while you're left with a general feeling of suppleness. Something I think this warm-up does excellently.
      Keep on training my friend
      💪

      @@BodyweightMuscle A. Miscommunication here. In reading my response I see it's my fault. You do proceed gradually. It's the order of things.
      C. Don't need to stretch at all in the beginning, but if one is going to it should be after full body warm-up. Which you told me above you did do just didn't show.
      D. Just emphasising to make sure people know to start this very slowly w/ small range of motion and gradually work into fuller range. I've seen so many people just star cranking their necks at high speed.

    • @BodyweightMuscle
      @BodyweightMuscle  Рік тому

      ​@@oldnatty61 Hi ON, my apologies for the late response, and also thank you for your reply.
      I agree about people often being aggressive with their neck. That is why I emphasize on it by saying to start "gently" and increase ROM gradually.
      As to stretching, there has even been research showing that stretching (statically) before exercise can have a negative effect on strength, power and speed, and injury rates.
      Yet in a lot of these studies, stretching wasn’t preceded and, most importantly, wasn’t followed by a proper warm-up. This probably explains why a recent systematic review that looked at 15 years of research, found that brief periods of static stretching followed by dynamic stretches and a proper warm up, offers the most optimal results both in terms of performance and injury prevention!
      Thusm static stretching followed by dynamic stretches and a proper warm up, offers the most optimal results both in terms of performance and injury prevention!
