after hundreds of videos watched on rib flare, yours has encapuslated in a succint and precise way all there is to know for us to understand and execute... im deeply thankful of your content thanks millions
Found this on my way to bed not knowing wtf rib flair was just to find out I have it and was focusing on the wrong thing. insanely helpful and has provided me instant relief. will be rewatching routinely. Thank you!
@@aqbgaming7656 right rib cage flairs out at the side and bottom For years I attempted to over correct with ab excercises and just ended up having shrreded abs and rip flair
I just did the long gentle breath out (instead of resistance breath out) and it moved to the right position. I coughed a lot and felt everything relax. Then did the exercises and I'll be doing these every other day!
Just breathe and your skeletal structure will MOVE WHILE breathing. You breath all day, every day, is your rib flare going away, BRO? Get a fucking brain and stop listening to youtube idiots
As I have gotten older this is a problem that has gotten progressively worse for me. My lower belly sticks out when I exercise and now I know why. Your instructions are very clear. Thank you. I think this will take a lot of practice for me as my ribs want to flare even with these exercises. You are the first person who has made real sense out of this issue. Thank you.
I don't fully understand but it is late at night. I will rewatch this a few times and incorporate these exercises into my routine. Thanks for the clear presentation and u have great looking knees
I’ve been dealing with chronic psoas, back, hip tension to the point where my psoas was pinching my nerve causing pain just about everyday for the last 2 years. It took this video for me to realize that my main problem was I just wasn’t breathing well enough throughout my day. Something so simple. Yet makes a world of difference
Hi Greg, just want to say thank you for this video. I had a left side rib flare and it bothered me for years. I had always been trying to chunk them in and obviously making the situation worse. Your explanations of the diaphragm movement and common mistakes are EXTREMELY USEFUL!! After just adjusting the breathing method, I had already seen great improvements and regained the center gravity by mere consciousness. My shoulders' mobilities have improved as well. I cannot thank you enough for this! I hope your works will get the recognitions they deserve❤
Congratulation, Sir. Thatś what I call a methodology an willingess to help! So, let me recapitulate in more details the three Three stages(also to help others): 1-Rib cage position shape Breathing Hook lying cage-long gentle exhale holding hands vertically and feeling side and low abdominal tension Side lying -on elbows, refrain fromnot overdoing it! All fours reach - cat stance , back neutral slow exhalation ribs retracted and until slight abdominal tension is felt. 2-Reinforce SKills Right leg on a step, left hand expanding forward (exhale)and backward (inhale) heels up gobble squat holding a weight in front ofour chest, inhale down, exhale up 3- Challenge skills Pullower when lying flat on a bench inhale back not down jus cca horizontally and exhale to vertical position, avoiding lower-rib flare in favor of gerntle lower ab tension. Kettlebell overhead press with one hand-Exhale up withuout arching, inhale down (like at weightlling). Parameters of progression -Highly individual beginners just stage 1, then gradfually to stage 2 ans three roughly with the same amount of time, every other or thrid day. Again, Sir, many thanks for this comprehensive advisory and I alsoliky giving at least one day out between days of training. Best regards. Paul,68, retired martial artisdt. (Does it work equally for men and women?)
i read a random comment yesterday about rib flare, i didnt know it was fixable! i used to get a lot of back pain in my middle back that would pull into my ribs and also some days i can barely breathe in because my diaphragm is so tight, likewise i often feel i cant breathe out like a normal person and really have to push, because again, my upper abs are much stronger than the lower ones. so this makes total sense! i actually think a lot of women have this problem from years of sucking in their stomach as a teen and in later years because it was so ingrained in us from a young age
This seems related to your previous video. Rib Cage and Pelvis Alignment - Are You Making This Common Mistake? (QUICK and EASY Solution) I was using that to try and address flare, but I guess this video is more direct. Still, I found the other video to be extremely useful & it made me aware of how much I was leaning forward, putting a lot of pressure on my forefoot instead of actually balancing on my heels. When I shifted rearwards that started activating my TA and then my glutes had to start engaging when walking, so it's making a complete change happen in how I put power through to the ground. Great videos and so helpful! There are lots of hacks out there that don't actually address the root causes, but your videos do. Thanks!
You are right this is very related. The other video talks more about the center of gravity where this talks a little more about the shape and position. Thanks for watching and for the comment!! Appreciate it!!
It's interesting to see such an emphasis on rib flare these days. When I was a new graduate PT in the late 90's we didn't treat this at all. That is to say it was not a dysfunction. What was treated was posture and how posture interacts with diaphragm position. True enough, diaphragm position and mechanical advantage are important to just about anybody but especially anyone with pulmonary issues. I don't focus too much on rib flare as has become the recent trend, rather assess the overall function and specific biomechanics of the problem at hand. But, I'm open to learning new techniques and ideas, so I thank you for your work, guidance and dedication to the subject.
Dude this video is amazing. Just realized today that I've had this for years. Struggled with back pain and weak core, but couldn't seem to work my way out of it. Did PT, Chiro, got MRIs, CAT scan, saw multiple doctors, no help. Some dude on TH-cam looking like suave Jesus saved the day. Thanks
This video is so perfect and helpful. I learned these exercises in pt for correcting my postpartum rib flare and anterior pelvic tilt. Need to get my rib cage stacked back over my hips. This additional instruction helps me know I'm on the right path with my treatment. I've already experienced relief from low back and hip pain by doing these exercises. Thank you so much for doing what you do
Always illuminating information. A lot of my clients have flared ribcage I also try to get my clients to feel a deeper sense of grounding in semi supine and allow the chest- ribs to settle. Matt the pilates teacher.
At this point I'm convinced that Google can read my mind lol this has been an issue for me for the longest time since I was over weight and with a terrible posture when I was a teen since then I have gotten in shape and fixed my posture but the little rib flare that remained has been a after thought that I didn't really know that I could fix but thanks to TH-cam recommending your video out of nowhere I found that it is basically the position of my guts and is correct able and I already can see a difference. Thanks!
Great stuff Greg! I have noticed that my left hip pushing forward is forcing my left ribs to flare out more, so delaying a left side being primary goal. And that would include hip shift, cross connect and inverted activities as well 👍
Excellent video! I can feel the effectiveness of the breathing techniques in phase one right away. I love how organized and efficient the presentation is. Your skill at demonstrating the moves while talking is impressive too.
I have a huge difference on my left rib size. And hope this can help me. Once I went to the emergency room because of a insane pain. The doctor said it was a bone formation.. now I see it could be solved with some exercises. I'm on the way to solve this.
Hell yeah man. You can always improve movement. And also accept that you are whole just as you are. Both views together yield the best results. Thanks for watching!
Finally someone who can name this phenomenon. I have noticed this in my 1 1/2 year old. Is there anything I can do with him to help him? The excercises here are too complex for his age. He has had some excess gas in his guts due to some bacterial overgrowth, that we are working on at the moment. Could that be a cause, as it pushes the gut out?
@@ChaplinPerformance Thank you for your answer! Very much appreciated. Can you be more specific on what you mean by the typical developmental positions? Or where I could find them? Many thanks and keep up the great work!
THANK YOU! I have only done it once right now but they feel great especially the side-lying oblique sit, i can feel my lower rib tuck in slightly. I've always been insecure with rib flare but i hope this will help reduce it
Very great explanation! What is the best way to incorporate correct breathing into evereyday life, e.g. sitting at the desk or walking, carrying groceries, ...?
Thank you, Chaplin. What about backbends? I assume they work against. But I love them so much. They also have advantages, like keep spine flexible. How to counterbalance?
Man i love how u break things down and some of the things u say really make sense at many levels. Great detailed plan u have for sufferers of ribflare. Will be trying these tonight!
You might wanna change that title to "what you are doing wrong & how to fix it" or something like that. reading the title made me lose hope that i would get it fixed because i thought it was not possible to fix without injury or something 😂 glad i watched the video all the way through
Are you familiar with the Denny roll? I have neck kyphosis and so have been advised to use them for spinal alignment but I have noticed that the positioning tends to pop/expand my ribs forward. Any suggestions?
What is the best sleeping position with left side rib flare? I started having rib flare 4 years ago after having my 2nd child and I have been dealing with this on and off. I have just learned in the last year that it is called rib flare. I also have diastis recti, which I think may be contributing to the rib flare.
I've had a rib flare for as long as I can remember, but never knew what it was called until now. I thought it was something I'd need surgery for, and have been wanting to get it fixed since I was 10 years old. I've been trying phase 1 over the past few days, but I must be doing something wrong because my ribs don't seem to go down like yours. When laying down like in phase 1, the height of my ribcage is more than twice that of my stomach. Will it eventually fix my rib flare after a few weeks/months of doing this?
You are awesome at explaining and showing how to do this. I'm trying to incorporate this into fixing my Diastasis Recti (I'm a male) and never really exercised this sort of muscle group and my belly grew but I don't have fat to pinch, it's all solid. I do IT / tech work all day and I find myself with bad posture and letting my belly bulge when sitting in a poor position because these muscles got weak. I'll check back in a month or two with results.
Could bras affect the flaring as well? I think that has affected mine. I’m now more aware to not wear too tight of bras but I wonder if they may contribute to rib flaring and also not taking them off at night…
Everything happens physically for you do to a metaphysical imbalance. How would a body be benefiting from a rib flare position and what nerve innervations and emotional connections can be focused upon to give a better intention for your exercises?
thanks for this. if we move from or compensate in movement by folding from the ribs can I get back pain over time too? shoulder/ wrist too ? im dealing with ligament pain I think in the wrist mainly but feeling its from ribs shoulder. ..
Always had this and thought it was just the genetic shape of my ribs. Just checked now and its totally gone. Never even realized when or how it disappeared but im shocked lol
Great video, very optimistic about trying this. Just to be clear, for the side-lying oblique sit, you are not turning this into a side plank by lifting your hips off the ground by pushing down with your knees, correct? You are keeping your hips down on the ground throughout the exercise? Thanks!
Hello. I have mild pectus excavatum and a protruding belly. Im in general good shape, athletic and with low body fat. It bothers me enormously to have my stomach sticking out. Will these exercises fix it, or is there a better way to go about it?
Awesome video Greg! Thank you for sharing many valuable contents. May I ask you a question? It seems that the lower ribs have been anchored by the obliques preventing it to flare up and allowing the ribs above to expand outward. But does that mean that those lower ribs should not expand and not lift up during inhalation? or there is still some degree of controlled elevation of those lower ribs? Cause i can picture in my mind the tug war in between the neck and the abs elongating the ribcage but many anatomy video of the ribcage shows elevation and expansion of those distal lower ribs. thanks again for the video
Great question. You’ll still need to drive expansion. The oppositional force of the diaphragm will prevent the diaphragm from staying descended and pulling inward on the rib cage instead of outward. We need to make sure we get that diaphragm into a fully relaxed state on the exhale and then control the rate of descent on inhale. This will guide expansion into the rib cage in a more distributed fashion
Would this apply to those with pectus excavatum? If so Will this also help pectus? Or are there different breathing techniques and exercises for that? Thanks
Interesting! all these years I have been told to get as much curve on the lower back as possible and to lay down with a towel under the back to keep it that way. I have always wondered why my ribs stick out like they do. I do have a problem with my lower back from time to time.
Thank you very much for the information you provide. From the video I have 2 doubts. The first one is that, if I have lateral pelvic tilt, should I do the exercises differently, should I correct my lateral pelvic tilt before or should I do the exercises of correction of the flared ribs and lateral pelvic tilt independently? The second question is, how can I work the abdominals without generating tension in the guts, or should I avoid exercising them while correcting this?
Ok, I have rib flare but also my sternum has also coming out more , is this because of the flare? I also have realized that I’ve had costochondritis for a few years and didn’t know anything about it. Thank you for these videos!
Also Greg for the side lying oblique sit ! Is it best for me to not push myself back or not before starting the breathing ? Because im aporiaching things from a top down strategy and I don't want to create another compensation by tucking my pelvis
Number one is to get into the position and to assess what you feel and see there. Use the arm to reposition the rib cage as needed and then assess the pelvis. When in doubt, use subjective and objective measures to categorize the response with each parameter. Collect data over time and you'll begin to understand what strategies work best for you
A short google search will help you see various flavors of rib flare. Rib flare can happen in isolation or in combination with other chest wall anomalies. There’s not one singular visual representation of rib flare
Hi Greg. Thank you for this video. I have a question. My lower and mid-back don't stand straight when I do leg raises and any exercise that requires a straight back. My question is, is my mid-back arched because of the position of my ribcage? If that's the case, should I not do ab workouts? I'm a beginner so I don't have much knowledge. I'm trying core strengthening exercises so that it may can help with the problem. Can you help me pls?
I have spent about ten years struggling with my posture. I knew something was wrong in about 2008 and starting trying to figure it out in earnest in about 2011. In December of 2021 I discovered PRI. I though I finally had the skeleton key. I had tried every other modality and nothing worked. I spent 6 solid months working on my own to understand PRI and apply it. I started seeing a PRI-aware therapist that August because I just could not get it to work. I bought the right shoes and started doing the exercises as prescribed. Things started moving in the right direction at that point. However, I knew something was still "off." Something was not quite being addressed. I was not diagnosed as "patho PEC" but I could tell there was something wrong with my right side ribs. My therapist kept insisting that I focus on the left. Although I think PRI is the right starting point for understanding (like "paleo" is for diet), my body moved way closer to correct just a day after discovering this video and doing the exercises in it the way you recommend. I was getting really frustrated. This came along at just the right time for me and I truly appreciate it. This was exactly what I needed to cross the finish line and take my life back. It's been a fucking miserable decade if I'm being honest and everything has been on hold (to some degree) while I have been trying to walk right. I owe you for this one.
Hi there! Thanks a lot for sharing with me! I had a very similar experience. Also got heavy into PRI, shoes, glasses even. In the end, I think it was a valuable part of the journey, but ultimately was just a stepping stone. In my experience, just when frustration is highest is when you need to be aware of possible insight coming your way. If this video was it for you, I am PSYCHED! Thanks for watching and stay healing!
I have one doubt. The exercises in phase one are meant to be done one after the other or are a mid-term progression? Thank you so much for the video, it seems really, really helpful!

I've been trying phase 1 over the past few days, but I must be doing something wrong because my ribs don't seem to go down like yours. When laying down like in phase 1, the height of my ribcage is more than twice that of my stomach. Will it eventually fix my rib flare after a few weeks/months of doing this?
Hard to tell from your description… there’s a lot of factors at play that are hard to discern without an assessment
I have Cervical Kyphosis. Could it be related?
You are awesome at explaining and showing how to do this. I'm trying to incorporate this into fixing my Diastasis Recti (I'm a male) and never really exercised this sort of muscle group and my belly grew but I don't have fat to pinch, it's all solid. I do IT / tech work all day and I find myself with bad posture and letting my belly bulge when sitting in a poor position because these muscles got weak. I'll check back in a month or two with results.
Could bras affect the flaring as well? I think that has affected mine. I’m now more aware to not wear too tight of bras but I wonder if they may contribute to rib flaring and also not taking them off at night…
I only have flair on the left side, and it's always been this way, is it any different then ?
nice vid!
Thank you for watching!
Thank u, but I wonder will we breath like this method all day Do you mean is this the correct way of breathing, behind ribcage?
No the correct breathing method changes depending on the demands of the task you are engaged in!
@@ChaplinPerformance my aim is to hide ribcage on stage 🫢
Everything happens physically for you do to a metaphysical imbalance. How would a body be benefiting from a rib flare position and what nerve innervations and emotional connections can be focused upon to give a better intention for your exercises?
I agree mind and body have no boundary. But I also firmly believe that it is truly individual.
Can you drop the link for the free left side rib flare exercises you mentioned at the end? I can't seem to find it. Thanks!
I have a rib flare on one side of my body but not the other how does that work?
thanks for this. if we move from or compensate in movement by folding from the ribs can I get back pain over time too? shoulder/ wrist too ? im dealing with ligament pain I think in the wrist mainly but feeling its from ribs shoulder. ..
Always had this and thought it was just the genetic shape of my ribs. Just checked now and its totally gone. Never even realized when or how it disappeared but im shocked lol
I've always felt the same. Did you stick with this?
Great video, very optimistic about trying this.
Just to be clear, for the side-lying oblique sit, you are not turning this into a side plank by lifting your hips off the ground by pushing down with your knees, correct? You are keeping your hips down on the ground throughout the exercise?
Thanks!
Where is the link to the free breathwork course he talks about at the end of the video?
The course is no longer free. However you can purchase it at: breathworkbreakthrough.chaplinperformance.com
Hello. I have mild pectus excavatum and a protruding belly. Im in general good shape, athletic and with low body fat. It bothers me enormously to have my stomach sticking out.
Will these exercises fix it, or is there a better way to go about it?
These exercises can definitely help. Hard to say whether or not there is a better way for you without assessing you!
Calm and helpful... i like it!
Thank you!!
Awesome video Greg! Thank you for sharing many valuable contents. May I ask you a question? It seems that the lower ribs have been anchored by the obliques preventing it to flare up and allowing the ribs above to expand outward. But does that mean that those lower ribs should not expand and not lift up during inhalation? or there is still some degree of controlled elevation of those lower ribs? Cause i can picture in my mind the tug war in between the neck and the abs elongating the ribcage but many anatomy video of the ribcage shows elevation and expansion of those distal lower ribs. thanks again for the video
Great question. You’ll still need to drive expansion. The oppositional force of the diaphragm will prevent the diaphragm from staying descended and pulling inward on the rib cage instead of outward. We need to make sure we get that diaphragm into a fully relaxed state on the exhale and then control the rate of descent on inhale. This will guide expansion into the rib cage in a more distributed fashion
Rib flare? Whooo!
Woooo!!!
Would this apply to those with pectus excavatum? If so Will this also help pectus? Or are there different breathing techniques and exercises for that? Thanks

This is what he does beyond the wall

Modified all four belly lift is a great exercise to fix rib flare
When executed without too much crunching, absolutely... When executed with too much crunching, tends to just exacerbate it.
Interesting! all these years I have been told to get as much curve on the lower back as possible and to lay down with a towel under the back to keep it that way. I have always wondered why my ribs stick out like they do. I do have a problem with my lower back from time to time.
Thank you very much for the information you provide. From the video I have 2 doubts.
The first one is that, if I have lateral pelvic tilt, should I do the exercises differently, should I correct my lateral pelvic tilt before or should I do the exercises of correction of the flared ribs and lateral pelvic tilt independently?
The second question is, how can I work the abdominals without generating tension in the guts, or should I avoid exercising them while correcting this?
Usually this first, then lateral pelvic tilt.
Second question: you will always tension the guts... it's just in what direction?
Ok, I have rib flare but also my sternum has also coming out more , is this because of the flare? I also have realized that I’ve had costochondritis for a few years and didn’t know anything about it. Thank you for these videos!
Foundation Training and Thomas Myers Myofascial release 10 series will also help.
I just checked out the pectus braces and will the cheapest one work?
But rib flare looks so cool, is there a health risk associated with it?
Did you successfully treated people's rib flare with this methods? If so, how long it took them to see changes
any videos on ric flair?
So is rib flair a real thing I should care about that can affect my health or like just a new insecurity to be preoccupied with?

i love rib flair drip by offset!
nothing can change the nature boy Rib Flare WHOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
I only have my left One advanced comparing with the right one
Very common! I’d suggest going to my website and sign up for the free movement breakdown or go grab my breathwork breakthrough from the description
@@ChaplinPerformance ok THX
Also Greg for the side lying oblique sit ! Is it best for me to not push myself back or not before starting the breathing ? Because im aporiaching things from a top down strategy and I don't want to create another compensation by tucking my pelvis
Number one is to get into the position and to assess what you feel and see there. Use the arm to reposition the rib cage as needed and then assess the pelvis. When in doubt, use subjective and objective measures to categorize the response with each parameter. Collect data over time and you'll begin to understand what strategies work best for you
Missing from your description of rib flare is some pictures of people who have it. After watching this, I still don't know what it looks like.
A short google search will help you see various flavors of rib flare. Rib flare can happen in isolation or in combination with other chest wall anomalies. There’s not one singular visual representation of rib flare
@@ChaplinPerformance Thanks. I had rib flare when I was younger, not knowing that it was a condition with a name.
Rib Flare was a great wrestler!
Does having pectus carinatum pose as a risk factor for having rib flare?
Not sure but I think any chest wall anomalies might increase the probability
Hi Greg. Thank you for this video. I have a question. My lower and mid-back don't stand straight when I do leg raises and any exercise that requires a straight back. My question is, is my mid-back arched because of the position of my ribcage? If that's the case, should I not do ab workouts? I'm a beginner so I don't have much knowledge. I'm trying core strengthening exercises so that it may can help with the problem. Can you help me pls?
I have spent about ten years struggling with my posture. I knew something was wrong in about 2008 and starting trying to figure it out in earnest in about 2011.
In December of 2021 I discovered PRI. I though I finally had the skeleton key. I had tried every other modality and nothing worked. I spent 6 solid months working on my own to understand PRI and apply it. I started seeing a PRI-aware therapist that August because I just could not get it to work. I bought the right shoes and started doing the exercises as prescribed. Things started moving in the right direction at that point.
However, I knew something was still "off." Something was not quite being addressed. I was not diagnosed as "patho PEC" but I could tell there was something wrong with my right side ribs. My therapist kept insisting that I focus on the left.
Although I think PRI is the right starting point for understanding (like "paleo" is for diet), my body moved way closer to correct just a day after discovering this video and doing the exercises in it the way you recommend.
I was getting really frustrated. This came along at just the right time for me and I truly appreciate it. This was exactly what I needed to cross the finish line and take my life back. It's been a fucking miserable decade if I'm being honest and everything has been on hold (to some degree) while I have been trying to walk right.
I owe you for this one.
Hi there! Thanks a lot for sharing with me! I had a very similar experience. Also got heavy into PRI, shoes, glasses even. In the end, I think it was a valuable part of the journey, but ultimately was just a stepping stone. In my experience, just when frustration is highest is when you need to be aware of possible insight coming your way. If this video was it for you, I am PSYCHED! Thanks for watching and stay healing!
Can i correct my pelvic tilt with these exercises
Please reply i am so depressed
I have one doubt. The exercises in phase one are meant to be done one after the other or are a mid-term progression? Thank you so much for the video, it seems really, really helpful!
