I've had shoulder pain for around a year, sometimes exceedingly painful, sometimes only mildly bothersome, but always there. I've done some PT and seen a chiropractor, but this video is the first thing that has helped me address the root cause. Or at least it seems like it is addressing the root cause(s) as my pain, range of motion, and my rib cage/breathing have all improved as I did some of the movements along with the video. So, really, what kind of sorcery is this??? 🤯 I am always wanting to understand the why behind my pain, so that I can address the actual issue if there is one, and that you address the underlying issues rather than brushing it off as only "tight, weak muscles" is phenomenal. Thank you a million times over. I am feeling so grateful and giddy about this new to me knowledge especially since another of your videos has recently helped ease the imbalance/twist in my pelvis, and all the pain and discomfort in my torso, hip, and leg that resulted the 5 months. Seriously. I have had daily pain until last week when I tried the movements you suggested in the other video and have had no pain since. Exception being tonight after a day of driving and sitting when I felt my hair get wonky and my hip and lower back start aching. I did the movements again and have felt those discomforts ease, again, and my balance and grounding improve. I have just as much hope that these shoulder movements and knowledge about the shoulder will help ease my pain. It's a piece in the puzzle of Me and My Pain, and I am happy I have this knowledge to aid me. This is life changing, really. I always knew biomechanics were cool, but I'm completely fascinated right now.
Dude!!!! I was already really good with the breathing exercises because of the 90/90 exercise with balloon. I laid on the ground and put my arms back around 100 degrees or so. I did the breathing exercises w/o balloon and after inhale through my nose, My arms kept dropping further and further. They eventually hit the ground after about 7 total reps. My right side took 5 breaths and my left side took the extra 2. Absolutely amazing.
Conor please make vid on how to treat pinched nerve in the left side of neck & traps,which radiates through left shoulder and arm upto fingers,and makes arm feel weaker,compared to the right side.
Love all your material! Is it possible to create posterior expansion on one side of the back? My right shoulder blade is clicks/pops when I bend laterally to the right as well as feeling perpetually tight. Could a compressed ribcage cause snapping scapula? Also, how does right bc/left aic pattern fit in with idiopathic scoliosis? I was diagnosed with a slight levoscoliosis(left curve) but feel like I am in a left aic/right bc pattern which I would suspect would cause a scoliosis to the right not left. Thanks for all these videos...your knowledge is invaluable.
Man of the people! I'm listening to you like I listened to Kelly Starrett a few years back: having no clue, but then after time developing an understanding and knowledge and can use it to heal my body. Thanks so much for the work you put in. I will be definitely investing my time and money in your products
Great video Conor, so how would a straight cervical spine straight thoracic spine and hyper lumbar lordosis affect all of this? I know you went into the positions, do your solutions work towards undoing those changes to the spine? How would this affect Thoracic outlet syndrome?
Connor excellent video. Just one question: how do you ask someone who is untrained and has no awareness of tva or side abs to engage them while slow exhales?
Could this have something in common with why my left collarbone is way forward than my right? I know I'm in left aic/right bc pattern... Thankyou for your work, very informative and useful!
@@conorharris It seems that my left shoulder is rolled more forward with it, yes. And when I try to roll my shoulder backwards and pull my scapula down, I sometimes hear cracking noises accompanied with slight movement in both collarbone and scapula. Usually doing pull ups I feel that my body tend to pull more to the right side. I would say my left scapula definitely feels weaker than my right.
I really enjoy your videos you are very knowledgeable of the body I would like to know what your profession is so that I can find a qualified person in my area to work with I have issues going on and from listening to your videos I know that if I found a qualified person I could get that help I am more of a hands-on person if you would tell me what your profession is so that I can look for someone in my area to help me thank you
I'm needing the TOTAL Body Tuneup. Just about every area of my body is dysfunctional. So much of this has to do with postural integrity and the whole body functioning as a unit. I've been working with Conor's breathing exercises as part of one of his routines. It really does make a difference. Check it out!
Hey Conor, I have Anterior Pelvic Tilt coupled with very poor shoulder mobility. I cannot raise my arm 180 degrees. Is it possible the lack of shoulder mobility and restriction in the ribcage is the root cause of my APT?
If I have anterior pelvic tilt what region of the ribs would be tighter? I start getting tigther when passing 120° on the shoulder flexion test, so the t2,t4 would be tight is that correct?
was trying to do the assessments in the article and figured I had approx 100, 90, 50? respectively for the first 3 (tho my left shoulder pops like inside not audibly when i do external rotation) but like with the adduction i couldn't even get that part of my shoulder on the ground (which laying flat is already uncomfortable with straight legs painful in lower back which cant be flat unless i bend my knees) like...idk are mine just in a weirdly high place or do i just have too much back fat to get it on the ground....
This is like decentralized finance, but for the body. Yield is high but so is the treasury so not much risk of getting rugged😆. You only rug your health if you ignore it.
@@conorharris yeah the ones that Kneesovertoes guy talks ab. Maybe review him since he thinks we should be able to touch full hands on ground and not just tors
Cant believe all of this information is free, thanks a lot, man!
Gotta help the people out 🙏🏻

Thank you dear Conor. God Bless u much for your kindness n Loves ♥️
Yes sir! Good description of Shoulder Internal Rotation syndrome.
@@conorharris I am curious..... How do you get the biceps tendon to set back into the groove?

Great video. I’m starting to delve into these concepts due to my long thoracic rehab. You made it very clear. Thank you

Best pt content out rn
Amazing content, feels like I'm getting a free lecture.
We owe it to ourselves to improve who we are every single day 🔥
Day off today great video to review rom tests and understand the relationship between ribs and shoulder mechanics.
Conor please make vid on how to treat pinched nerve in the left side of neck & traps,which radiates through left shoulder and arm upto fingers,and makes arm feel weaker,compared to the right side.
Omg i have the same problem but it's on the right and I'm right handed! I can't go heavier in several lifts because of this

너무 감사합니다 훌륭한 강의입니다
Make a video about cervical pattern the RTMMC
your the freaking man Conor. Thank you. each video brings a little hope.

What causes the intercostal muscles to spasm Conor?

another great video!!
why to you think 95 per cent of trainers, pt, etc, dont mention breathing? its pretty crazy when you think about it
Unawareness, or a lack of willingness to change. I think it's more of the former
There’s breathing and then there’s correct breathing❤️
Upper spine shoulder
Hey Conor, I have Anterior Pelvic Tilt coupled with very poor shoulder mobility. I cannot raise my arm 180 degrees. Is it possible the lack of shoulder mobility and restriction in the ribcage is the root cause of my APT?
8:59 I have this problem
how to chill out tight right side of neck characteristic for right BC pattern
If I have anterior pelvic tilt what region of the ribs would be tighter? I start getting tigther when passing 120° on the shoulder flexion test, so the t2,t4 would be tight is that correct?

Connor,
I have a lft Aic/bc pattern, my left should hurts when i lift it laterally, is this a rib/scapula issue too?
Same with me
What if we have a flat thoracic spine? So we can’t breathe into upper back
This is like decentralized finance, but for the body. Yield is high but so is the treasury so not much risk of getting rugged😆. You only rug your health if you ignore it.
Heartburn occurs when doing PRI exercises, is this normal or should not happen?
For sure go see a physical therapist.
Damn I thought low reach is for posterior lower rib cage expansion and reach at 120° is for pump handle up
That can also be the case, but high reach works best for upper expansion if they have the genuine shoulder flexion to go there without compensating
@@conorharris Tnx Connor, got to go through exercises 👍
Thoughts on Nordic and reverse Nordic???
Nordic hamstring curls?
@@conorharris yeah the ones that Kneesovertoes guy talks ab. Maybe review him since he thinks we should be able to touch full hands on ground and not just tors
@@jasonn_lifts puts you into anterior tilt
@@ashleytaylor994 reverse doesn't
what would you say is the cause regarding pain in left shoulder during lateral raises with dumbells (neutral grip)?
Depends what the lateral raise looks like, but usually a lack of ER/Abduction
