I am so most appreciative that you have taken the time to show this video. I have been in pain for years with that nerve pinching feeling on my left leg into my groin area and no one has ever addressed it. It's obvious they just didn't know. I'm so thankful!!! thank you😢
Thank you thank you thank you!! I’ve been arguing this exact issue with my manual PT. I was a body builder. I know muscles like to be used; not sit unused for month’s! Dealing with issues in this content and others, after car accident; and stopped lifting. Will try these.
Omg ty I've been suffering from back pain and was told it was tight so I've been stretching with no relief. I tried this and notice my psoas is weak. Just started doing this in hopes it works
Hello sam...first, thank you for your clear, instructive videos...i have just found yr channel and trying (as it seems many are) to pinpoint my hip issues. Which have been going on for a good few years....after seeing many various people/watched videos etc...problem is restricted movement/pain in left hip àrea...first it was groin, then dull pain in buttock. After sitting for a while it can block temporarily. Sometimes sensation reaches knee and below. Much less mobilty left side....have traditionally been very flexible, but now learning that stretching not going to help and that i need to strengthen . Would love to get to the cause of it...Anyway, just wondered what yr thoughts are on mild scoliosis being a factor...if lower back shows a bit of curvature, could this pull the psoas muscle out of alignment, causing the pain and reduced mobilty in the whole area affecting piriformis and other muscles? Going to watch more of yr vids and keep researching and check out yr website. Thanks
Using a muscle daily is natural and normal. How hard one works it is the issue. With my personal clients, I aim to find exercises that are super low intensity, and the chosen movement can be done for up to 2 minutes with minimal fatigue. This will allow for daily (and even multiple times per day) training, and expedite results. As exercises are progressed to more intensity, frequency is reduced accordingly. As always, however, this all depends on the unique situation.
Just what I needed the really low intensity exercise with the sliders on the floor. I tried all the others including the chair but the we're all to high intensity.
There isn't really any way to determine that. The question really is first and foremost whether or not its able to reach full normal range of motion (see other video for assessment). Then, is it painful on contraction or not. Pain during contraction would likely lead to inhibition for obvious reasons. Overactive is assumed if it is short (can't get full range of motion) especially during simple stretches or techniques such as massage + contract/relax stretching.
Would this be good for a leg that is functionally shorter do to muscular imbalances? That particular side also about 5 months ago I started getting knee crepitus. Left leg/hip feels unstable, right side is the functionally shorter/tighter. Thank you
He explains how you can do the second exercise with tubing and an anchor over a door. That shouldn't be too expensive or difficult to set up for a motivated individual. You could also just do the first exercise and progress it by adding a weight(bag of rice or whatever you have that works) on top of your leg.
Andrew v5402: You sound like you might have more A&P knowledge so the talking is more than what YOU need. But others might need more explanation. Bare with that cause other people need help too. Be careful not to turn off your listening. A lot of people do these exercises and movements incorrectly because they miss important steps.
@@sherilynschneider I didn't say he shouldn't talk! I said he does too much talking, big difference. There are other channels where they explain different exercises for the PSOAS and do it concisely without being too verbose. There is such a thing as too much of a good thing, right?

Did you have groin pain while sitting? I have this problem as well and looking for exercises

Thank you so much had several epidural for back pain did nothing for me but take my 💰and I know it's gotta be my psoas

did it??
Yes, groin pain. Hip issues. Pinching. Yes.
Great video. Your instructions are very clear and considerate of levels that do not irritate the area being worked. ❤
Thank you and happy to hear!

Thank you❤
thanks you help me than you'll ever know with this video
Happy to hear!
Thanks Sam. Will this help with internal snapping syndrome after hip labrum repair surgery?
Thank you. Question? So you do only one set of 2 minutes per exercise or more?
FANTASTIC!
Many thanks!
Thank you again. Rather debilitating condition.
is working on weak hip flexors everyday is a good idea?

Tkank you.
Does this help the psoas major??? Thanks . Will be giving these a try.
These exercises address the hip flexors as a whole, so yes.
Just what I needed the really low intensity exercise with the sliders on the floor.
I tried all the others including the chair but the we're all to high intensity.
1 - Supine floor slide
2 - Supine hip flexion + cable
3 - Cuadruped hip flexion - cable
Im assuming the slider could be cardboard?
Yes, I use that most often.
How do I understand if my psoas inhibited or over active?

@@SamVisnic Thankyou so much
Use a long yoga strap as alternative

Most of us don't have a home gym, so how to do without?

Just take your shoes off, and your heel will slide just fine on the floor.
Depending on the floor.
You do waaay too much talking. 😂
Do you do the same with complaining? 😂
WTH....how can he explain without talking?
This channel is amazing. Thank you for the knowledge.
