This sounds so perfect for fibromyalgia. I wake up with sharp pain in low back, my whole pelvic floor and stomach in cramped muscles. And can barely get up out of bed much less stand or take a step at first, until I walk it off. I just did all of these and it relxed all of these areas, brought my pain of 8 down to a 2. Great stuff. 💕
Never seen Halloween, so I'll just imagine that Zac Cupples is standing behind me while I'm attempting a RDL.😁 Great video! Thank you for your amazing content.
I love your videos Zac. Easy to follow, simple exercises that do the job! Appreciate all the work you're doing here. By the way, do you happen to have a video on fixing neck hump (dowager's hump)?
Just great! On the #4 exercise i feel My top leg/hip is working a bit, guess abduction , feels good, but u said No tension? Doing something wrong? Thanks
This was fantastic! I work at I'm doing a lot of walking lifting twisting and turning at all different angles. After about two and a half hours, my knee hurts and my right hip hurts. Both because of old injuries. I am 5'6" and 148 lb. When I'm not working I am fine and I can do almost anything. My question is how can I reduce the pain so that I won't start hurting after two and a half hours? Oh by the way I am in excellent shape and 65 years old.
Looking forward to trying this out, your last vid I watched helped out my floor work a lot. At the end of the vid you suggest another video - any chance you could add the link into the description as my phone doesn’t give me the pop-up. Thanks to both of you. And keep up the magic 😉

@@ZacCupplesPT Thank you for the video! It's so informative and I'm grateful to learn about core issues I can correct, rather than symptom management fitness. I wanna go back to this video, so I added notes. I'm looking forward to my body's improvements.
Could you tell, please- to do these exercise only on one side or both? (If I have my pelvis rotated to the right, and whole body is twisted spirally due to muscular imbalance).
I'd like to ask are these notions about optimal sidelying position applicable for improving my sleeping position? I am learning to sleep sideways because of sleep apnea and I've found that optimal position where my body feels comfortable yet not too relaxed is hard to find. Thank you for your well-informed and qualified content!
In 15 years where iivex to, i havent had a physical therapist that does NOT have 5 patients an hour. And as good a pt patient i am,.. its imperitive to have one on one at least one pt 3 month cycle a year. When im AT PT, THATS WHAT IM THINKING OF AND FOCUSING ON. when i get home, its my kids and resposibilities. (except off cycle and home unsupervised program, i take my hour, still, and my family is so used to it and understands its impirtance, no one interferes ever) But other than that, when im not tgere, im not thinking about it.. The hosts of these videos understand that. These type of PT want you to get the best outcome. Any other kind, like the ones tgat have five patients an hour.. run like hell.
zac, need your help... noticed latelty my toes on the right foot splaying way more then the ones on the left. how should I approach this , do you have by any chance exercises that I should try and do ? Thanks.
Hi! Can you make a video specifically on expanding your lower rib cage when your breathe? (Also there’s something called ur solar plexus (it’s not the direct medical term) but I know this muscle bulges with a certain breathing style. Even if this breathing style is considered wrong could u give any tips on bulging the solar plexus because I need both lower rib cage expansion and solar plexus bulging
Hello. I am unable to touch fully my toes. Which movement(s) would you recommend from these 5 that you folks demonstrated? Thank you for your time. Cheers.
They are all pretty good. I usually give a bunch o them in sequence. Especially for a toe touch, as there are upper and lower body components. You may also want to look at this video. The exercises are good for toe touch - th-cam.com/video/ePRHEB3_ml4/w-d-xo.html
@@ZacCupplesPT Oh goodness, this video describes exactly what am unable to do: my lack of mobility around my thoracic region of my upper torso and my lack of mobility in the external rotation of my hips; especially, my left side. I do want to be limber andobile as I mature in age. I'm not fond of being inflamed from workouts that stress my body. Yet, this was my routine for decades. I am understanding how we're to be limber and still continue to be strong. I will make attempts in applying your philosophy to my daily mobility practice. Cheers.
Girl, you were freaking me out staring at the camera not blinking. Great job this was so helpful Mr.Cupples. I'm sure Lucy was the best for this explanation. You both are great people. Thank you kindly. 😊
i had v little expectations but i tried all but the last --- and stiffness of many days just melted away. Amazing.
My work here is done 💪
Lucy you are my hero! 🎉 You are validating my fibromyalgia pain! It's tough when no one 'sees' you or believes you. 🙏Thank you!
She’s great!
the last one with the yoga block was INCREDIBLEY helpful THANK YOU
the combination of peeps I never knew I desired. genuinely thank you for the content.
I’m really glad you enjoyed it!

@@georgethaddeus9170 LOL now THAT is funny
For how many minutes do we do each one? Thanks
Love it! Would you recommend sticking to left sidelying with these in most cases? Or would you typically do both sides? Thanks so much for these.

Thanks Jaymie I always appreciate people who take the time to leave comments like this. Summarizing key points helps to execute efficiently.
@@jaymieyang8244 Best of luck with the moves!!! Hope to hear positive things
@@longhairmullet It definitely helped me with learning earlier in my career
Could you tell, please- to do these exercise only on one side or both? (If I have my pelvis rotated to the right, and whole body is twisted spirally due to muscular imbalance).
Hey zac, what do you think about the open book roll in combination with a foam roller underneath the ribcage?
Messed with a similar variation. Worth a shot

It’s a useful strategy and one of the conservative measures for OSA. Gravity doesn’t push the tongue back as easily
Great content guys, I’m going to throw some of these in for my wife who constantly guards and holds tension after a disc issue
Keep us posted!
Thank you so much for the video.

Sadly the system is broken in that sense. One on one definitely trumps the group. Glad you see the utility

It really depends on foot presentation up the chain
Thanks sir

I think some moves are from his stuff, but never formally taken/learned anything. It’s high on my list
