‍☠️ Controlled and thoughtful movement can minimize acute/chronic low back pain. _________________________________________ Low back pain can be borderline frightening. Every slight motion causes sharp, drop to the floor pain. Finding ways to move through a pain free motion can be useful in creating relief for the protective muscular "spasm" that can come with low back pain. If your back pain hurts when you extend backwards, try motions that use more of a flexed or rounded low back position, then slowly work into more neutral plane motions like a resisted mountain climber or plank variations. Once these feel okay, then we can try to move into the painful direction again. _________________________________________

If you have tight hip flexors and have been stretching them with no improvements, stop stretching. _ The answer is probably stability and you should try strengthening the tissue that feel tight instead of stretching them. _ Video 1 - Band Resisted Psoas Marches. Make sure your hips stay above 90 degrees at all time. Aim for 3 sets of 5-8 per side. _ Video 2 - Deadbug with Foam Roller Squeeze. Focus on keeping tension on the roller and maintaining a flat back throughout the movement. Aim for 3 sets of 4-10 per side. _ Video 3 - Bench Elevated Psoas Marches. A progression to video 1. Aim for 3 sets of 5-8 reps per side. _ Interested in working with me? Check the links in my bio. _ Questions? Drop em below! . . #parfourperformance @parfourperformance #joetalkships

TIGHT HIP FLEXORS? . Everybody thinks they need to stretch their hip flexors, but do they? DO.... THEY? . ️‍♀️If not done properly you can put extra stress on the hip capsule as well as your anterior abdominal wall. . To clean it up, the number one ☝️thing you want to do is lock your core down, to prevent you from extending your back‼️ . In the 1st clip my core is not being used, I’m extending my back and I’m not getting a true hip flexor stretch . In the 2nd clip I tuck hips underneath more torso to activate my core, from their I squeeze right glute to help me tilt my pelvis backwards, allowing me to stretch my iliopsoas and rectus femoris muscles. . After that I incorporate some hip flexor strengthening to help reinforce the new range of motion that you’ve just gained. We want to make sure your comfortable in your new range of motion first before throwing you into a heavy workout, so that your body is used to it. . How are your hip flexors⁉️ . TAG, COMMENT, SHARE with someone who’s hips are tight‼️ . #PhysicalTherapy #Physicaltherapist #physiotherapy #hippain #backpain #workout #mobility #exercise #legworkout #fitness #olympiclifting #crossfit #health #sportsmedicine #rehab #Squat #sportsrehab #clinicalathlete #performbetter #washingtondc #dctraining #dcfitness #dcphysicaltherapy #thefitdistrict #districtcrossfit #igdc #bythings #docmike #bigleaguehips

First off, I do not believe forward head posture is bad. In fact, it’s probably normal since 100% of the population has it. _ Any position in which one spends a lot of time (including “good posture”) can cause pain. That’s why the best posture is THE NEXT POSTURE. So let’s stop blaming forward head posture for your poor movement skills. _ But if you do find yourself having neck pain, especially if the sitting in front of a computer exacerbates it, weakness of the deep cervical flexors can contribute to the issue. _ Here are 3 exercises one can try (from easiest to hardest) to strengthen the deep neck flexors. _ 1. Chin Tucks Draw your chin towards the table as if trying to make a double chin. Start with 20 second holds and build upwards to 1 minute. _ 2) Chin Tucks with Lift Same technique as abovebut lift the head off the table. Start with 20 second holds and work your way to 1 minute. _ 3. Cervical Flexion/Extension Off Table This drill challenges the deep neck flexors eccentrically at first, then concentrically back up. This one can be a doozy when trying for the first time. _ Interested in working with me? Check the link in my bio. _ Questions?

When clients come to see me my goal is to teach them how to be self-aware of their body and give them the tools to manage it for years to come. _ Would you rather just have somebody work on you, make you do a few exercises, and have suboptimal outcomes and pain that returns? _ Or would you prefer to be educated and guided so that you know exactly what to do to keep your body healthy? _ The @parfourperformance virtual Kinstretch classes are designed to do just this. Head to the link in my bio to learn more on assessing your body and how to make it more resilient. _ Questions? Drop em below! . . #parfourperformance @parfourperformance #joesquotes
