Quadratus Lumborum and Left Psoas Stretches for Pelvic Tilts
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 1 ต.ค. 2024
- A common source of anterior and lateral pelvic tilts, and the low back pain that often results, is the right quadratus lumborum. But the QL is not the origin of the pain, it's just what hurts. So stretching only the quadratus lumborum will not be the answer. You have to take into account the position of the pelvis and ribcage.
The technique referenced in this video can be found on the Postural Restoration Institute website
www.posturalre...
That position is called the Left AIC pattern as described by the Postural Restoration Institute. It results in a pelvis that is rotated in one direction. When this pelvis position goes on for too long, the right QL becomes overactive and starts to hike the hip up. But it doesn't work alone.
The psoas muscle on the left will always be overactive when the right QL is overactive. This is because both work together to keep the the lumbar spine and pelvis rotated to the right. This means that only addressing the right QL will have limited results. Whatever stretch you do must incorporate the left psoas, too.

My right shoulder blade rib and low back and cracked, popped and moved back into place doing this. I can feel all the muscles on my right side relaxing and seriously want to cry I’m in such relief. I was a long jumper from 9 to the 23. My college and potential pro career got cut short due to some injuries that I believe came from being stuck in this pattern and my right side just quit on me. I overworked it. The past 4 years have been miserable with all the pain, tightness, restless nights and being flat out uncomfortable 24/7. Hopeless that I’d ever feel ok again. After finding you a month or two ago, you’ve been a light in the darkness. You’re doing Gods work man. Thank you so much
I'm happy to hear that. There is a good chance that seeing a PRI therapist could help you further.
Hey man, I hope you continued to make progress and got back ro doing what you love! I've been in the same boat as you for the last 4 years (now 25). This has given me loads of hope. Wishing you the best in your health and development 🙏🏽
Ty for your post.. it is further evidence i have the same issue. Started doing this and i learned my right ql was not always releasing..
Good luck to you!
And thank you for this video and explanation.
So u had a tight right ql
And right shoulder a bit rounded right
Thanks you guys. Can you do a new video on left QL Pain due to prolonged sitting? Thanks
I’ve suffered for five years with this ql tightness . You ‘re my hero . Thank you so much.😊
This technique is simply golden. I remember the first time I ever did it, I had this incredible kinesthetic sense of my body and brain(nervous system maybe) that I’ve never had in my life. It was so overcoming I had chills and tingling all throughout my body and a rush of happiness and a huge sigh of relief. Truly like magic. It’s been over 2 years since I’ve used this and I can’t believe I forgot about it because it turns out it still slaps just as hard! 😂 Sometimes you gotta take it back to basics
It accomplishes quite a bit when done correctly.
Thank you so much. I exactly fit in the pattern you are describing in your videos. I have sciatica/piriformis spasms (right leg), neck tilt, facial asymmetries, right QL spasms, SCM spasms, even have been diagnosed oromandibular dystonia with jaw deviation. I have always felt like my jaw deviation was linked to my bad pelvic position (that many physios said to me I had), but everybody I talk to seem to think I am just imagining it. Now I finally visit a physio in my country who came to the same conclusion as you. My body is shifted to the right. I have tried so many things in the past but thanks to you I now know what I have to work on.
I hope you find some relief with this new understanding.
I'm very happy to finally find someone to address my problem with my pelvis and my left lower back pain,😊 I'm actually didn't start doing the tecnics to fixed but I know that this is what I'm looking for my problem. Thank you very much 🙏. I never imagined I will find someone explaining this particular problem 😅
Right ql pain literally disappeared and after months of non-stop pain. Also felt my right shoulder pop. Thank you so much.
Neil, THANK YOU for all of the amazing content you create for free! Thanks to you and your videos, I'm now pursuing PRI; it's what I've been looking for ever since developing a passion for movement and wellness nearly 20 years ago. I hope to do an internship with you one day, assuming you ever decide to open up that possibility.
Buy this man a complete skeleton!
This is perfect for getting the stretch in the upper left glute, again beautifully explained. It seems that there are a few people out there that are interested in helping others. Neal is one of them. 🥰
Thank you.
🎉 Sir your are a legend, I watched the first half of this clip and started the exercise as you explained the importance of breathing, as I exhaled for 5 seconds and watched the clip to the end. I’m now walking around the house without that pain.
Pain in QL, Psoas, piriformis, hip flexors, rib cage, Lats, popping hip all on the right side. Been watching and applying video after video. I’ll try this and see. Thanks for this video. Hoping it’s the winning cure. Long time chronic pain here
It might work if he didnt go off on so many tangents
Baffled why this clip does not have thousands of views and likes. Brilliantly explained.
Thank you, Neil.
@@NealHallinan mate what you are teaching here i have never heard explained but i really believe it can finally help me to rehab and get back to normal physically. The lack of knowledge on this PRI stuff by majority of physioss, chiros, osteos, massage therapists i've seen them all over past 10years, is why after 10yrs of still trying to get fixed i'm still no where near better...infact getting worse. Its the first time ive heard the phenomeno of not being abel to feel the ground explained. I always tried to explain that i feel ungrounded like my pelvis is floating and one side doesnt feel same as other but no one showed any sign of understanding it lol. Let me know what i need to do to have a chat pls. I see some light at end of tunnel thanks to your works. Cheers.
WOW! Thanks so much for this, the QL is a mysterious muscle and so difficult to connect with for some TLC. So many QL stretches out there but nothing hits the spot quite like this one!!
I wanted to ask you Neal, I have been dealing with a weak right ankle for 10 years and am finally finding the right solutions for it. I suspect this weakness to that foundation of my right side has sent a lot of things off balance and is probably be the cause of my right QL pain - does that sound about right? I am addressing this with lots of side planking, some suitcase carries, strengthening right glute medi. Do you have any advice or things to focus on to restore balance? Thank you so much in advance and for reading!
The ankles can definitely influence QL activity. I think your exercise choices are more along the lines of traditional PT/training, which probably won't work. I'd recommend finding a PRI therapist to help you out. It's complicated.
I am crying from joy. Just heard something popped in my back. Thank you very much
Same procedure (just switch everything) for a tight left QL? Thanks in advance. I asl because I have tight left QL, tight hip flexors, tight right groin, tight right adductor. Its kind of like a jump from one side of the body to the other centering in lower abs. Nightmarish.
Hey Neal. I've been studying your videos for the past week now, trying to understand why my body is falling apart 😅. I've done all the tests, and I feel fairly far gone in this pattern (left leg is forward/ext. rotated, left meniscus medial tear/weak hamstring, right glute not firing, and it goes all the way up the chain to shoulder pain and neck tightness...). On the QL here, I CANNOT get my right glute to activate, it feels like my right QL just completely takes over for most tasks, and if not that it's my right hamstring/adductors. It leaves me with a very sore and tight right QL after work and the gym. Should I stop doing bilateral exercises completely (deadlifts for example) until I fix this imbalance? When will I know I'm on the right path to restoring some sort of balance/neutrality, from your experience?
Thank you very much in advance!
I hear you! I was a dancer and a competitive body builder and both those mess the QI and more...
How are you?
You have saved my life! Greetings from Brazil!
Is this for a tight right QL or should I reverse the position? My right QL is super tight. Thank you.
I cannot thank you enough. Crying from relief. Thank you so much.
This has become my issue from sitting so much. It started with the lock down. Thank you for the clear illustrations and explanation. You’re awesome. Passing this on .
Is there a video of someone performing this exercise please?
So good! I am a massage therapist and will be sharing this with all my clients with rotations (aka nearly everyone). I am noticing a lot more left posterior/right anterior rotations with my clients than the R post/L ant rotation. Do you feel like there is a common motor pattern that might make this more common or is it just my little niche of the world?
Any idea what exercises/habits might be causing this?
I often stretch my right QL, and then my left psoas, on a large theraball (the one people do abs crunches on), by lying on one of my sides and positioning the tension where it needs to stretch by feeling it and placing my legs and hip differently. But that always "fixes" me for an hour or so.
I'm going to try this new exercice today, I'm happy that you just taught me a technique that targets both sides AND breathing all while working the miscles, intead of just stretching.
I'm being repetitive haha, but again, very timely for me and a huge thank you.
I am so thankfull that your path is helping mine
Stretching doesn't "teach" your brain anything. You need to give your brain a reason to inhibit the Right QL and left psoas. PRI techniques are all stages of the walking cycle. This is something that your brain understands. If your weight is on your left leg and your left hip is shifted back (left stance), your brain knows to "turn off" the right QL because it's pre-programmed into human movement. You need to re-learn how to use the left side of your body correctly and the right QL with then only activate when it is necessary.
@@NealHallinan exactly yes. I've been slowly but surely changing my stretching exercises for actual neuronal exercises with you help.
Hello, I became confused on the part about rotating the right leg. Instructions say inward, but photo seems to show toes pointed out. You talk about internal rotation but then seem to switch to external rotation…. Please clarify.
If someone has overstretched his left side hip flexors ... ofcourse which led to left-side of pelvic forward .....do we need to strengthen hip flexors ie illiopsoas also .......or hamstring and anterior glutes medius would be enough.........please also suggest pri technique that targets anterior glutes medius on your website page or video....
This technique targets the left glute medius if you hip shift properly. The directions say you should feel your left outer hip. That's the glute med. I don't think most people need to strengthen the left hip flexors. They are already overactive.
Thank you. Will go and look as it's very interesting, and I am constantly looking at the body as a complete unit and how to help it to unravel.
So what about right ql pain during right leg walking lunges & right leg step ups but when lunging on left leg my right hip drops??
I’m so grateful for you taking the time to explain what’s going on. It’s more transparent and understandable than anything the chiropractors or PT’s told me and I went for a year. I kept getting adjustments for that lower rib and thoracic spine when really it was my right QL that was insanely sore and tight to the touch. Not even the massage therapists or acupuncturists brought it to my attention, they just told me it was sore glutes. I’m so excited to move forward now that I’m training to be an athelete again. Thank you from the bottom of my heart
I am suffering from severe right ql pain spreading in the entire lower back and leg to feet since 2 years. Went to 3 doctors and 2 physiotherapists/chiro. Just benefitted for a few days and then the same issue.
And i was asking all of them to kindly explain to me what is wrong with this ql;the science behind it. But they never told me. And i am on bed from last 1.5 week, severe back and leg pain. Watched your videos on ql, followed this exercise and my pain was gone when i woke up today. But i still have leg pain and i have noticed that my ribs hurt and feel sore with this exercise. Is this normal? And is this exercise a permanent solution for ql issue? Also please tell me will this benefit my leg pain too which is originating from this back pain?
Thank you so much for explaining so well and helping me heal. Finally i see some hope after 2 years.
Kindly answer my 3 questions.
what if your left L5 transverse process is fused to S1? left QL almost constantly tight/locked/spasming
I wish there was a practitioner like this around my area! I feel like I am backwards to everything he is saying, yet don't totally understand it. But my left side is compressed with my right side low hip/high shoulder.
I frequently get confused when trying to relate these techniques to the act of walking, in particular shoulder position relative to pelvis position. I think that generally the left hip shift is paired with a right shoulder forward and left shoulder back - which phase of the gait cycle does that mimic (if any)? Is the left shoulder back/right shoulder forward when you first land on the left heel (with the pelvis rotated to the right), and then as you move over the left foot the pelvis counterrotates to the left as the left shoulder moves forward/right shoulder goes back and the right leg swings forward? Or do I have some (all?) of that backwards? I don't know why I can't get this straight!
Thanks as always for a really informative video.
It's actually the transition "double-stance" phase of gait when two feet are on the ground at the same time and our pelvis is rotating to the left. We are trying to leave our right side and shift our body to the left. Our right arm is forward.
We are pushing off with our right big toe as our left heel has already hit the ground.
Very helpful, thank you!
Thank you for sharing your valuable expertise 😂
Working out my abs I got this muscle injury the pain is equals hell, it hurts even coughing
I received a spinal nerve block in my left L4. Did nothing to aleave pain because I believe it's my left psoas is very tight and inflamed?
Never knew anything if this. And a bit much for just one viewing.
Neal, I’m just wondering if you could solve this problem by strengthening the opposite side of the muscles which are the right psoas? If so, could we do the same with the upper back? In this case strengthening the left lat to balance out the right bc pattern?
That won't work because gym exercises aren't normal human movement. They are just gym exercises. Walking, which all PRI techniques mimic, are normal human movement that doesn't require conscious thought. No one teaches you to walk. You have to consciously learn to do gym exercises. PRI is not gym exercises. They are techniques to re-learn how to walk and breathe without compensation.
The right psoas doesn't need to be strengthened, it needs to be placed into a position (left AF/IR with right hip flexion and external rotation) so that it can "re-learn" how to be used appropriately while walking. It's a brain/movement issue, the muscles aren't the problem.
but what if your pelvic and upper body is turned to the left? And all your pain is on the right.
Will it help if I am in acute pain for couple of days with my right ql muscle!
Hi neal, I really fit the description in the video regarding which muscles are tight, yet my pelvis is looking to the left. Could it possibly be another pattern on top of the left aic and right bc?
What excercises should I follow?
Thanks!
I was thinking exactly the same :) I've heard Neal say in other videos that sometimes not sides of the pelvis are in AIC but in this case I'm not sure...
@@inessiev
After spending a lot of money on pri. I advice you to not follow it. Check Taro Iwamoto instead. PRI is misleading and very limited and neal is trying to generalize his story to the whole planet -- with good intentions of-course, but it is so wrong.
On 10.02 you said when on left leg your right arm comes forward, buy shouldn't it be the left arm that comes forward? Isn't right arm forward in left aic right bc pattern?
Yes it is forward in the pattern, but it is “fake” forward, via compensatory right shoulder activity. We still need the right arm to come forward to get us to the left, but via the correct muscles controlling the scapula (serratus, low-mid trap, triceps).
well my back popped comfortably -dont know so far
Great video 👍.....what may be going on in right side of pelvis if external rotation is high .. but internal rotation is restricted..( completely) ...and hip feels like dropping or ilium moving outward (i.e right side open and left side close)....and on left side of pelvis also same thing happening......and ..if your answer is pec pattern .....then why I feel my right hip dropping and my right shoulder is high ......and this started after I started providing pronation with my right foot?. .........and what could be the solution........
My guess is that you have compensations going on, but everything depends on whether your body can get into a state of neutrality at the pelvis, ribcage, and neck. You can't know what is truly occurring until someone is neutral.
If you are in India, why don't you look up this gentleman. Perhaps he can help. I really can't answer your questions because I'm not there to test you.

@@NealHallinan thank you
Thank you very much, Neal!!! I wish all people suffering from pain to watch your videos🙏🙏🙏
Thank you.
the verbal description I know is spot on but you still lose me.
What if you have a right pec that is alot bigger than the left. The muscles on the right side in general are bigger. would balancing your muscles by trying to do pressing movements as well as pulling movements as best as possible in left stance take you out of the pattern by balancing the muscles? By the way my jaw points to the right and my teeth dont sit correctly but I remember how in a video you made about facial symmetry you mentioned feeling your left inner thigh and other muscles in left stance contributed to your facial symmetry that's why I'm wondering if prioritizing the muscles could help.
I don't think doing traditional weight training exercises would change the situation from a PRI patterning situation. When I talk about the left adductor, hamstring, glute medius etc... it's during PRI techniques which position you in a particular way for a particular reason. Very different situation than gym exercises.
Q how to release leftside posterior hip capsule..please mention a technique for that................. And can you please also suggest any exercise that targets left hamstrings, left abductors, left obliques and especially left side serrated anterior simultaneously.
th-cam.com/video/fyy15sxUfhA/w-d-xo.html
What exercises? Im Brasílian help me please
which book is that? could you please tell me.
You don’t know how useful you are…Thank you from India
Hello sir…You do 1 and 1 sessions??
Not online at this time. You could contact this gentleman:
www.fractalbiomechanics.com/
Some people is L AİC, but left femur is in İR state. How does pri look at this? Another compensation?
It doesn't change much. You still have to get the correct pelvis position first (left AF/IR) while using all the appropriate muscles (left hamstring, adductor, anterior glute medius, left internal obliques). Most people do compensate with some left leg ER, but not all do. You can't always tell visually.
Did anyone understand what to do?
Is there any exercises that could only engage abdominal muscles without firing up the back muscles. I want to engage and strengthen my abdominal muscles while back muscles are relaxed. It seems impossible. I want my brain to only engage my abdomen, hips and legs for squatting and less of the back muscles until I can control and let the abdominal muscles do most of the work. How can I isolate that? I have a chronic lower back pain.
This may help.

I have had lower back issues for 3 years. I think I injured myself lifting multiple 25KG bags of gravel with poor technique. I have lower back ache (mainly QL) as well as inflammation on my T12 vertebra. I have been told I have anterior pelvic tilt. I am wondering if my QL is tight or in bad shape and pulling on that 12th rib and causing the T12 vertebrae to be irritated constantly.
Does the information you present work for the opposite. My left QL is tight due to extreme extension and my right hip flexor hurts
It's all the same underlying pattern but people end up with different symptoms. Any time a left QL is tight, it's due to an unstable left hip, and the right hip flexor is used to make up for loss of right glute activity, and sometimes to cover up right lower back instability. It can all be addressed through Postural Restoration (seeing a therapist, not by trying to do it yourself).
great video neil.
When you mention the connection between the right shoulder and left heel are you saying there should be connection between these two points...perhaps the spiral line that goes across the body from shoulder to heel in a diagonal fashion on the front side?
Yes, they are neurologically and physically linked.
Does it ever happen on the opposite side?
sir, how to turn off the right internal oblique muscle?
The right interal oblique is part of the Right BC pattern. Every exercise in the Exercise playlist, seeks to turn off the right internal oblique through positioning your body correctly and breathing.
i find myself using my right obliques as a compensation for hip flexion. After performing this technique or any technique that inhibits right QL/left psoas, do you think its wise to perform exercises that include hip flexion such as Split Squats (right arch referenced) or Staggered deadlifts ?
If you are overusing your right obliques (Right BC pattern), then your right glute may not be activating correctly for hip abduction and external rotation, which can also throw off how you flex your hips.
Hey I'd love to see a video of someone with pain on one 1 side of back during walk weighted lunges. The kettlebell weight shift makes it worse as well as 90 90 lift offs on the right internally rotated hip.
Thank you for this ! , a demonstration would be super helpful, it’s a bit tedious to follow along
Have you started taking online clients Neal ?
Where do you live?
@@NealHallinan Mumbai , india . But in next August I will be coming to California for my MBA .:)
Great content, Q what may cause hip snapping while doing straight leg raise on right side. Earlier it was only happening in my left side . Right side hip poping started after my right shoulder became tight . I feel my right leg is moving outward. Please provide your thoughts on this and solution to this.
I'd guess that your hip flexors are overactive, but I can't say anything for certain. Sorry.
Hello Neal. I was wondering how I can check for this? Would x-ray for my full body let me know? When I suck in my chest & see my rib cage. I see that my left rib is more down than my right rib looking in the mirror. I was told by my RMT that I have anterior pelvic tilt & piriformis syndrome. When I have tight back I feel like it is my right QL usually where I lacrosse ball.
I have pelvic floor disfunction and my hips and ql are too tight.I learned and do a lot of exercise and tech.I am doing exercise since 8 month.This exercise and your technique can solve my problem.What else would you suggest I do? I want to recovery my pfd and living my youth.. Thank you so much..
Everything you say from 14:20 onward shows that you care and understand what people are experiencing and sharing on and from your channel.
"You might not be right for that technique, or this technique might not be right for you at this point in time" is something some people don't understand.
You are not trying to just sell something and you are very hollistic. I like your work in that sense too.
People do not understand "being ready for a technique" at all. Neither did I in the beginning. But it's the truth.
@@NealHallinan I agree, I also wasn't ready at first either. It's all a learning curve. Also, most of the fitness business really is not helping with that, so it is a learning against the current type thing too.
I consider myself lucky to be enabled to "see on the other side of the mirror" on that point.
Would be amazing if you could do a number of short, layman’s term ELI5 videos on these corrective exercises/strategies.
I understand what you are asking, but I don't think what I describe and show in this video can be labeled corrective exercises/strategies in the traditional sense of how they are used in the fitness world. What I'm describing is a total body/brain issue and has to be understood in the context of how our body's asymmetry influences compensatory breathing and movement for a given individual. So even this technique will not work if someone can't breathe with their left diaphragm. It won't work if their right glute is still too weak. It won't work unless they can hip-shift properly. The list is a long one. This is just one technique that can be used as part of a larger individualized program that addresses the need to inhibit an over-dominant right side of the body and re-stabilize a weakened left side.
Neal I was wondering whata your opinion on mobility execises for people who are neutral. Do you think it’s beneficial to try to increase range of motion in certain areas like shoulders, hips etc? I know that for patterned people its counter productive
I just wouldn’t want to risk de-stabilizing a joint. I’m fine with working on ROM maintenance on a neutral and stable body.
@@NealHallinan am just thinking about my lack of flexibility I have always had. Even before the patterning happened. Now am almost neutral and soon will start to lift again slowly, but I also want my body to be flexible to prevent injuries
Wow, that worked really well. It feels like when I'm walking now my left foot stays in the ground longer then it usually does. How often can I do this technique?
I’m doing this and I feel a lot of stretch so good. My condition is on the right side I have glutes, piriformis, IT band, and tfl on fire all day but my other pain is on the left mid back it’s shifted up it use to be lower back. So idk if I’m doing the correct side so I’m doing it on both side. Can you help? Idk which side needs more work or is weaker/tighter?
Is this something any PT would know about or do I have to find a specialist? I have done PT for hip, knee, neck, and shoulder but it never helped. I’m only now figuring out they’re all connected to this exact problem and no PT has ever addressed this.
The left QL muscle is different than the right? In extreme pain in my left QL. I work in retail and I am standing all day. Hope you can help me. Thanks
@NealHallinan if it’s the left QL that feels tight, would you just do this stretch/exercise on the opposite foot?
Can this move be done in a downward dog? I got in a position where I was supported by my left hamstring and my right hand and my back wasn't in extension. Do you think that would work? I'm sorry for being annoying, i could just do it your way but i want to work it into my mat routine. Thanks.
Mine seems to be the opposite. Hurting on the left QL and external rotation on the right foot.
I have this issue on my other side. Can I reverse this technique for my opposing side? For my left QL and right psoas instead?
Thank you for this information! Is it possible to have a tight QL and same side tightness in psoas? I feel pain in both the back and front of the same side.
it all about positioning, get a 9 to 12 position in space with,( that's where all internal and external rotations are ) right shoulder , right foot in front of the left , straight. if you look at your 9 a clock turning your head your 2 o clock shoulder shoulde rbecome the 5 o clock shoulder while pivoting on the other leg....
But inhalation is active exhalation is more passive recoil of diaphragm / chest
Hi Neal, I have all all things related to left aic right bc but I have pain only in my left hip and sciatica pain down the left leg. Does this mean that maybe I don't have left aic?
I have bunion on my right feet, can you tell me by that wich tilt I have ?
Sorry if I am trying to make it too simple 😊
👏👏
Hello, could you please explain what tightness feels like as opposed to elongation of muscles. I mean, can a muscle feel tight while in reality is too much stretched giving the false sense of tightness?
What you are describing is "tension", which does not feel like a stretch. But it's something you have to feel to internalize the difference.
@@NealHallinan So too much elongation can cause tension if i understand correctly? Also contracted muscles like the right side musculature can feel like there is tension. In other words, can tension be felt both in overactive muscles and stretched ones due to compensations or tension is felt only in the overactive ones?
This may sound weird but I’ve had this problem for a few years now. I was near my washing machine just kicking rocks and tried “feeling out” the different muscles in my body. I got into a weird crinkled position almost like the exercise and it definitely helped release some muscle tension. Now I have your video it’s much more detailed.
How come it says turn your right lower leg in, but in the pictures the woman's right foot is turning out?
Beautifully explained, thank you!
Thank you.
Gluteus medius and the piriformis is the problem...
Hi I have my pain Ql on the right side
So which side do I do it on the pain side or left side thanks
Hi sir.when you bring your right knee up,should your foot be off the ground or should your toes touch the floor
How many breaths and how long to hold it for?
It's generally done for about 5 breaths, with a five second pause after the exhale.
Hii sir I'm suffering for APT and my legs are internally rotated can you explain about this please
Posterior compression on the left upper back with an over active lat.. left aic or not?
Would you advise against a pec doing this technique biasing the right side
I love these classic style Hallinan explanation videos. Keep up the good work.
Thank you.
Could you make a series where you explain how to make all traditional strength training pri friendly? If i do 4 pri technique and i do have a positive drop test for my left leg but i still do the traditional strength training will i improve while being in extension during the gym?
Thank you in advance
I really can't do that because everyone watching these videos are in different situations. What may work for one person may not work for others. I have done that with some videos in the Tests and Exercises Playlist, but I have to keep it very, very, very general.
@@NealHallinan what about pri with tradtional strength trainign, will i see result?
Is it possible for the left ql to always be in an exhaled state?
Your reasoning for not bombarding us with exercises is amazing. You're a holistic healer. May God bless you!!
I have no clue as to what this video is trying to show.
