I've been watching your guys videos for a couple years now. Your guys videos has helped me fix so many pains and I seriously LOVE your guys dynamic. You guys definitely deserve to be the two most famous digital therapists on the internet! Thank you for your channel, sincerely!
Thank goodness for you both and sharing these helpful videos.
Your humerus can be internally rotated while your forearm compensates and externally rotated creating the illusion that your humerus is fine.
I'm looking forward to the next video with the solution. I didn't realize that the lack of range my arms have was due to that.
Thanks you Bob & Brad!
Thank you guys! You are awesome!!
really helps during assessment
Thanks for ur shares..I'm new from Philippines
it's like you guys read my mind, I just had chest surgery and I need some physical therapy exercises to help me recover
You’ll be aright . These guys sure have a way of making us comfortable with our issues
Why did you have
Is video part B out or still to come? Looking forward to the exercises/ advice on how to get it better as this is such a big problem of mine 😭
Thank u so much
this is probably best for my who recently recuperatingfrom a mild stroke
Stop eating junk . That might help too.
Thanks for this, it allowed me to learn that my pec major is tight. I had open heart surgery (full sternotomy) 4 months ago and since then have been having a lot of pain in my shoulders, back and neck. Would you be able to do a series on recovery after heart surgery?
Good luck, good health to you.
What was the reason for the open heart surgery if you don’t mind?
Omg
"swearing over there, this is a family show!"
"I'm sorry, I got carried away"
LOL! you help my injuries AND crack me up. best channel on TH-cam :)
With kinetic chain patterns in mind as to why Bob has issues on his left shoulder... His left foot seems to rotate more when he's lying down. Could be an issue with his left hip or leg
I’ve been wondering this with all of this damn work from home
Have either of you fellows tried the purple mattress, I love mine
"HERE TAKE A CLOSER LOOK"
Just what I needed, thanks guys!
I'm a PT student so I may be able to answer any additional questions if you have any
@@VinylUnboxings can you help me then? I recently have pain where they showed the orange tapes, I don’t know if they mentioned if it’s connected to the arm, but the pain close to my armpit makes my arms feel numb and weird. Is it part of the pain close to my armpit ? Or maybe the pain is coming from where they showed the red tapes since it’s connected to the arm?
@@TopazM Sounds like a brachial plexus issue. The nerves that run through your arm originate from a plexus that's located around the armpit. If you have tight pectoral muscles it can cause you to have internally rotated shoulders, which can contribute to nerve impingement that you feel further down your arm.
Do you sleep on your side?
@Jayant
1)What kind of pain is it?
2)Is it radiating?
3)Is it all the time? What makes it worse?
4) How old are you?
5) When did it start? Any injury or accident around a similar time?
If you could number each response accordingly to minimize potential for miscommunication it would be appreciated 🙏
Awesome
Plinth means a heavy base supporting a statue or vase or a wall.
Very informative. And I love the ridiculous banter!!
Hi...can u please suggest and share exercise for patient suffering from spine muscular atrophy 4 type.
So when I do the testing I pass however my chest muscles feel tight and when I do the test my entire bottom section of my rib cage gets a burning stretch through it. ?
Do you guys do your filming before or after your lunch?
I forgot what you and Brad said for me to do for my tight chest. I been having that problem for a while or so and I am still having that problem so what stretches & exercises do you and Brad want me to do to help this problem that I have.
I feel a stretch when I raise my arms what do you think it could be
TIL these guys have a Bob-cast. Sounds like a good time.
I get pain in the red area all the time. I can’t even move crazy or I’ll get a pain there like I pulled a muscle. Then for days I feel like I can’t breathe without pain in my chest when I move. It happens so much. It sucks
I had this problem about a month ago. Almost like a muscle spasm that took my breath away. It seems better now but my arm does not go all the way down to the ground as they showed. Would like to know how to fix this.
Did you see if it might be a rib issue as well? Maybe shoulder subluxation???
Can this sort of tightness lead to underdeveloped deltoids and or trapezius?
Hello Bob and Brad, could you please do a video on the ergonomic keyboards. Is arm pronation, ulnar deviation and wrist extension from using regular keyboards a serious issue to worry about?
I used a 100% keyboard ( w/ numbpad) for 10+ years and had a lot of wrist, arm, and chest tightness. A lot of my friends had similar issues. Now I use a 75% keyboard now and I noticed an immediate difference the first day. I can keep my hands closer together while slightly angled in and my elbows closer to my body. and I think the next step up is boards that are 2 halfs that can be set anywhere to accommodate specific needs
@@Cody27 I am currently using a TKL keyboard, saving up for a hotswappable mechanical keyboard. I am leaning towards a 96% keyboard but am wondering if an ergonomic keyboard would be a better choice. My ideal keyboard is the ergodox ez ( best of both worlds) but I don't type enough to justify the price 300 USD.
Another theory could be his martial arts history. My friends and I practice various martial arts, and we are all tight in the left shoulder.
And In boxing too
That's what's from! Thought I was nuts. Broke my shoulder in boxing years ago. Now I have this horrible dull pain in the armpit, joint, chest muscles. It's been giving me anxiety and I keep thinking it's my heart but every time I feel around it, I feel the tenderness. Don't like this feeling at all.
Left side for me too
How can u tell if thatlong muscle thats runs shoulder to shoulder is weak or broken? Ive heard stories of it being broken and the guy not knowing
Hey just started following your page. I’ve been dealing with a tightness in my left chest, upper back, and neck and some reason can’t beat it. All of this has caused restricted breathing 24/7. I know posture is an issue here because something keeps throwing my body in fight or flight mode and I think it might be my neck since getting pains up the back on my neck and left side of chest and shoulder blade. This has been going on for about two years and haven’t been able to do my normal everyday activities like sports and working out because it’s so uncomfortable. When working out it’s hard to breathe and can’t get the deep breaths in that are needed to keep going which makes me dizzy. It feels like my chest, ribs, and back are locked up. Been to several doctors and heart and lungs and spine are good. Been going to a chiropractor and they mentioned that I don’t have an s curve in my neck anymore but unsure if that is causing all. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks Bill!
I’m currently going through the same thing! It’s been going on almost a year now!!
You described exactly what I'm going through have been doctors and everything let me know if you found anything out that helps
When u say fight or flight mode what do you mean? Like a rush goes thru ur body?
How are you now brother??do you still suffering from this problem?
Any update on your issue?? Ive been deal with the same thing on my right side for a year now and ive had no help.
The only problem with chest muscles is after a workout you feel soreness in the upper pecs that's where the most pain in your chest comes from if you get a chest massage
Any advice for strength training below knew amputee?
An EMS (?
I can't do push ups bad shoulder pain thx
Did you?
Would this Pec tightness contribute to the problem I have fully completing "Wall Angels"..? 🤔
Yes, because I have the same problem and Chiropractor hasn't fixed it, nor did a Rolpher. It is harder to fix if you are big busted.😞
@@oneof5messer Well Lisa, I've never figured out why I can't complete them. I've tried lots of suggested remedies to no avail. I do a lot of upper body, arm and shoulder exercises, and have done for some time, so I'm beginning to wonder if it is a congenital defect..? 🤔
@@oneof5messer A physical therapist is the best professional for these issues. That's why physicians refer to them for muscular skeletal problems and chronic pain.
Bro unwillingly took the design off of the italian police
Ahhh, that’s why. Tell you what, if this gets bad you can get all sorts of unpleasant issues, like tingling, numbness, your hands feel cold…
How do I know that? :|
You need time stamps in you’re videos so I don’t have to skip the first 2 minutes of advertising. Also does everyone have a Gumby on their hip?
I have very tight chest and difficulty breathing due to my muscles around contracting if I take magnesium should this solve it . Our are there any chest muscles relaxers tablets ??
How many days do you suffering from this problem?
Any advice for headache or migraines?
Look for trap knots.

Can tighteness in this muscle cause short of breath? I’ve been studying too much lately and I’ve noticed a tight feeling in this zone after having studied, which leads me to short of breath in the evening
I kind of came to the same hypothesis. I had the feeling of being short of breath (even if I fully inhaled), but I thought it was due back muscles, specifically scapular section. I played with the tennis ball on my back and on an point I was breathless.
As back and chest are opposites so, while I focused on a rounded, weak and hyper extended back, a tight pec is also there.
So, I vote for yes in your premise.
@@CoNSu_11 I swear, it can also be a mixture with allergies as in these days I have throat tightness, chest tightness due to allergic sinus. Still I do notice this feeling on my right side in the zone of the chest after having studied or after having used the computer for a while. It feels like I’m short of breath at dinner and a while before it. Sometimes it will happen at lunch hour when I study in the morning too, while if I study on the sofa I will be fine (like today).
After dinner or lunch, when I lay on the sofa, I kinda feel better??? Maybe it’s because I’m making that part relax/expand, I suppose. At night I have no problems either, while laying in the bed. I feel like it’s a muscle constriction problems, but it can also be a psychosomatic thing.
PSA Beautiful Touko/Hilda 😂
@@Junpeixizumi I suspect it's more postural. Because we hunch in computers and while doing homework. You feel better in couch and bed because as you said, you get a more neutral position there.
Walking (even inside the house in a hallway) can immediately ease the symptoms.
The bad thing is if these problems are not addressed, muscles not longer relax while lying. I lay on hard floor thinking it will restore the natural position, but problems were too deep that nothing happened. I had to take stronger and more active ways. I had anormal intense anxiety attacks due bad posture (hip rotation and hunching).
Thank you, I see you're a man of culture :p
@@CoNSu_11 Imo I should also start trying not wearing bra for a while to understand if maybe I’m wearing it while it’s too tight, as sometimes I do have this impression and I’ve read about people having problems especially while they’re sitting, just like me.
@@Junpeixizumi ah! That's a good point, too. I agree. I suspect bra pull me to front, worsening my posture :(
Saw the intro and went yes, this is what i need
I’m having trouble with sleep apnea 😓😐😭
What kind? Centralized or Obstructive?
I am as well I think forward head posture and Tight short pecs Impede breathing in your airway
Without Liz ... we are all doomed
Peck major and sternal pain sharp burning pain on sitting or using computer spent 5 years with this pain.
1 year wasted in heart test.
3 years in gastritis and esphologeal.
6 months in depression.
6 months with neurologist.
They still couldn't figure out cause all was negative but now that it has spread to trapazeius, rhomboid and scapula and now they say see a Physiotherapist.
How are you now brother?
How are you doing now?
