    Hurt my back deadlifting.
    followed this video and felt a 'click' in my back.
    The hurt is gone now. Thank you

    Great stuff. Yesterday I couldn't bend my back at all, couldn't even touch my knees. Followed your advises and heard a "click", stretched the hip-flexors and the pain was gone and the mobility restored.

    Just what the doctor ordered! Going to share with my fellow ER docs and patients alike. Empowering patients we can hopefully keep them out of the ER and off of the narcs so that they can have live a life of purpose again. What a concept! Thanks for putting this together!

    You just heard it from one of the very best in the business.
    Thank you Dr. Starrett. I use this technique once a month just to see if anything feels out of place, in addition to all of the rolling, stretching and mobility drills after workouts. Very glad I ‘found’ your programs.

    @saragreer89 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    Thank you so much for this. I threw out my back on my 30th birthday and this helped me realign so I could still go out! Its It's now 6 months later and the same thing happened. It took me forever to find this video again but I've now favorited it. I'm on the mend again. Thank you so much 💗

    Amazing thank you, been holding my breath and grimacing for what seems like days, and sciatic pain down to my shin. Now I have movement and less pain.

  • @nathan9799
    @nathan9799 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    Thanks! Had bulging discs a few years ago and fixed them through rehab and yoga. However, today I tweaked my back again and thought I was going to be back to square one so I was feeling pretty down. I just heard a couple of pops on the left side of my hip doing your stretches and I feel back to about 90%. I’m going to take it easy the next few days but mentally I’m so relieved!! This video would’ve saved me years ago but I’m happy I found it now!

  • @BartRunning

    @contadacarta 9 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Kelly Just would like to thank you.
    Yesterday I hurt my lower back while working out at the gym. I have a disc herniation L4L3 and know that when I hurt my back like that it means few days in bed and 1-2 weeks out of the gym.
    So I did on all exercises in this video. I started this morning and repeated again after lunch.
    What I can say is that right now I have no pain and the spams are gone (and no medicine). I will keep doing it throughout the day and hopefully I will be back on track very soon.
    I am also very motivated to do the 14 days mobility challenge.
    Thank a lot for this channel

    Thank you, Mr Starrett,
    I have been in pain for over 3 years tweaking my back doing deadlifts (170kg), and no one has been able to explain or give me correct treatment until today, watching your video.
    Your explanation and use of language are flawless.
    And your knowledge is endless.
    I am a fan for life 😂
    Thank you & godbless 🙏

    @bobdownie.2806 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Thanks so much for posting this Kelly, I could hardly walk yesterday afternoon, then this morning I remembered your name referred to by world renowned MMA coach Firas Zahabi. I followed this instructional and 5 minutes later I was up and about and moving like there was nothing wrong with my back. I figured out why my back was sore too……simply overworked some of the lower back muscles by doing more snatch lifts than usual, which over the next few days got progressively more tense. I released the tension and hey presto! It felt though like a slipped disc near the tailbone, thankfully this was not the case.

    Thank you for the video. I tweaked my lower back playing with my kiddos on the playground and came across this video. I was in a sometimes unmovable position and I'm the extreme type. I don't like to be under control so by watching this video and doing it made me feel much better...Thank you for sharing this very helpful.

    Brilliant. Thanks for providing simple and useful tools to address low back tweaks. I'm curious what assessments you suggest after the back is out of spasm mode and the pelvic region is realigned. I also found, in addition to the ball squeeze between the knees drill, using a band around the knees to apply external pressure helps create 'space' in the low back and fosters realignment. Thanks for the knowledge sharing, Kelly, and demonstrating, Jenny.

  • @jree93
    @jree93 8 ปีที่แล้ว +29

    Holy shit. This worked for me. I got right back hip pain for a week from a heavy PR deadlift. Didnt' think this would work so I got massages (3 times) still didnt' help. Was bored today and I tried this, THAT CLUNK HURT A LITTLE, BUT THE PAIN IS GONE!!!

  • @brahssalamualaykum
    @brahssalamualaykum 8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    As an ATC we always learned to get that 'pelvic pop' prior to remedying that HS/Quad muscle imbalance that yanks the pelvis into a funky rotation. Not sure if the order matters too much since, for instance, chiros usually work on surrounding/tight musculature and THEN go for their manipulations. But, since it is an active/isometric contraction that fixes the rotation, I think it makes more sense to release the joint first with that ball squeeze or something similar.

    @xboxhuegable 7 ปีที่แล้ว +6

    This shit is amazing, I messed my back up squatting going on 7 months ago and haven't been 100% since. Been to 8 sessions with a chiro, lots of stretches and strengthening exercises. Nothing helped. I bought the supple leopard book and saw this in there and tried it last night. Instant fucking relief. I had constant numbness in my left foot that went right away, I actually felt weird because I was so used to being in pain and one side of my hip being higher. I don't know why this isn't a common knowledge maneuver but it should be.

    Have some pretty gnarly lower back pain from a competition a couple days ago. Caught low on a 255 clean. Immediately felt a sharp pain in lower back. It's kind of hard to stand straight, I'm kind of bending forward at the hip slightly. I'll try this out hopefully it works!

    Solid advice and techniques here, Kelly! I've used this myself during low back pain flare-ups and know just how powerful it is to be able to alleviate your own 'kinks' when your low back acts up. Hopefully heading to SF later in the year, so might try to get to SF Crossfit :)

    @christopherstark6773 9 ปีที่แล้ว

    first of all, when I tried to watch this on my phone the other day, the buffer would freeze with your face in some funny, and probably unflattering looks.
    Secondly, this sounds like great stuff. I always have issues with my back. I had to see a therapist earlier in the summer, and started to realize this was one of the issues that I was having. What I was given to do was similar to this, but not explained as well as this. I will try this version and see how it goes, but I think I will like it better.

    hey, i've been trying this and its been helping, i saw on line to use a stick across both legs to maintain the alignment on both sides when pushing and pulling, is that okay to use? how many times on each side, as my right pelvic side is forward? i have a twisted allignment in back and the left side won't activate correctly, and the right side is too activated if that makes sense, would the ball exercise's help all of that?
    Many thanks

    @PAORB156 8 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    I had a tweaked back 8 weeks ago! I don't have a disc herniation, a fracture or neurological problems. The doctor describes it as general lower back pain but it won't subside. I don't have a full ROM of flexion without pain and i am definitely tight in the area mostly for fear of hurting.
    I tried the video suggestions for the first time just now. It feels much better...
    I will update this post as to whether it helped long term
    Thank you anyway MWOD

    • @LaserrSharp
      @LaserrSharp 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      +PAORB156 did it help long term? Which exercise helped the most?

    • @PAORB156
      @PAORB156 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      +Louis O. It turned out i have spinal stenosis O4-O5 and O5-L1. These didn't help but what my doctor prescribed helped and i am pain free most of the time which is a mircale
      So, 1) Ab crunches but don't stand up too much alternated with bicycle crunches (in the same position=lying down on your back. You should make sure at all times that your back does NOT move. Do 3-4 sets x20 reps
      2) lie on your stomach and raise left hand/right leg and then right hand/left leg for x30 reps 5-6 sets.
      3) For stretching do the cobra and frog pose (search google)
      I do these everyday 2gether with my regular training (no more barbell squats/deadlifts,standing row for me though). If i don't do them for several days then i start having very minor pain, so basically it's a routine i use as a warmup before any sports activity
      This only applies to my specific condition, so good luck

    • @LaserrSharp
      @LaserrSharp 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      +PAORB156 I've done some research and find that inversion tables have helped many. Check them out. I also found some testimonials on reddit. Just plug the following in after the dot com and it should take you to it. /r/Sciatica/comments/3fjtmi/i_think_this_100_inversion_table_saved_my_life/

    what about an old untreat low back tweak done years ago? would do you the same thing? no matter how long and often I foam roll, stretch or mobilize (with the green band) my right hip flexor, it's so glued and in spasms. if I move hip upward it clunks, and my knee is stucked in. my right glute doesn't work.
