      I am hoping to squat symmetrically without the need for hip planes in the future.

    You are a genious, I thoroughly appreciate your videos as they are highly functional and the foundation to getting stronger.
    I have been avoiding lifting a while although I love it, but it is not because I am lazy it's because I have so many "sitting" problems that have gotten worse overtime and your approach to simple and soft rehabilitation and mind/body connection is astounding.
    Thanks again and keep up the great work!

Never knew they were correlated! Thank you so much for these tips I'm definitely gonna work on them now and see if it improves my squat.

    Amazing content. I have the same issue as the case study cliemt; just opposite sides. Couldn't get my head through this problem, I was always thinking the problem was on one side.. When in truth one side is mobile and not stable, while the other is stable and not mobile (each side is compensating for the other one). Thanks a lot!

      I think this is my problem. Because with the fable test my left side is higher than my right. However when I do the airplane on my right side it is more unstable. My left side can handle it much better. Thanks for your comment because I was confused I thought my right side was the issue yet the test was saying it was my left side. But seeing this comment helped me make sense of the issue!
