    This guy is so relatable, he teaches in a very relaxing and respectful way which is very important for people who struggle to connect with the vast majority of TH-cam fitness people, most of them come up with complex and difficult exercises that the people who want to get relief and gain mobility just can’t do so dissolutions set in and they give up.

    Easy way to regularly practice standing on one leg - any time you put your shoes on, do it standing on one leg. Even includes a single leg deadlift as you pick up each shoe off the floor.

      I have been doing this with shoes, and progressively my socks, for years now. I try and find small things like this to integrate into my daily lifestyle to supplement my lack of discipline in blocking out time to do extended workouts.

    The catching a ball while on one leg is really interesting.
    I work with disabled kids and we did it once during training and had to answer questions while doing it. It's amazing how much of your concentration it takes and is a great reminder of how much harder things can be for people with limited mobility and balance.

    Dear Tom i have to say thank you.
    I have always struggled to stabilize my lower back after an injury ( herniated disk between l5 / s1).i did lots of strength training and mobilisation, but i never had the feeling that i adressed the problem sufficiently.Even after a year i could not deadlift minimal weights without having the strange feeling "something bad could happen every second".
    Then i discovered your channel.
    After watching through your stuff and trying out (and thinking through) the excercises and really feel into my body and reflect my own movement patterns, i discovered the missing puzzle piece - which for me was constant glute activation. I have learned "proper" deadlift form from physiotherapist(s) but none of them told me to "squeeze your glutes all the way through the movement". i always lost glute activation while lowering down, which compromised the whole thing because my back took over. So i changed to constant glute squeezing for the whole movement (of course as addition to pulling in and squeezing abs, keeping a straight back, etc.) and man this is an absolute GAMECHANGER. I now have the feeling of full control, full stability and NOT BEEING IN THE DANGER ZONE (!!).
    The sideeffect of this behaviour, to my surprise, was that with glute activation all the way through, my hips are positioned slightly different and i discovered my true range of motion, which is more limited then i was aware of. All this transfered to squats also. Now i know what to work with.
    I also integrated the goblet deadlift (with glutes squeezed) into my daily activities as for example, feeding my cats or cleaning their toilet, picking up random stuff, etc. and even that is so good for my back.
    Long story short, your free to watch videos help me alot getting to know my body better and transform it for the better - Thanky You!

    @lazarus6983 ปีที่แล้ว +14

    I can attest to this anecdotally. I have a lumbar herniation and in addition to cat camels, the standing knee raise in my routine did wonders for my pelvic stability. The trick is, you really have to feel the line between the edge of your ribs and your pelvis and make sure that line is perfectly straight and you're training your body to always keep that pelvis locked in neutral position so it isn't tilting under load and damaging nerve roots within the lumbar spine. Solid video.

    • @marionsutcliffe1119

    Low back pain? Level up your Lunge for your Psoas stretch: put front foot up on something elevated, and go up on your toes for both feet. This will activate your stabilizer muscles. Then, same side as rear leg: stretch hand/arm towards ceiling to stretch to top of the Psoas too.

    1:54 I noticed that Jenny has a more difficult time balancing on the left leg. I can see more tension in her raised leg along with less stability in that position. I would assume it's due to having more flexibility and/or strengh on one side than the other. great & informavie video 🎉

    • @TomMorrison
      @TomMorrison  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Just a random day really! Some days balance is easier than others, she has hypermobility so generally finds some stability stuff a little more challenging if she doesn’t keep it up, flexibility stuff not as challenging 😄 I’m the opposite, if I skip on stretching stuff I just turn into a fridge 😂

    Do you guys have any tips on tailbone getting pain while doing leg raises? I noticed its because or the pelvic tilt, but i dont know if its actually possible to do full leg raises without actually tilting the pelvis at all. Best i can do is like between 30-45 degrees before the hip inevitably start tilting and the tailbone start touching the ground 😅

    • @TomMorrison
      @TomMorrison  ปีที่แล้ว

      Your pelvis will have to tilt as you start to flex your hips! If it's just a pain of your tailbone hitting the floor, try just doing the leg raises on a soft surface or cushion for a while until you build up a tolerance 😁

      I live since Mid 90ies with back pain. From time to time very severe for days!
      I got used to it in some way and there are phases I give up and phases where I try something new (only new movements, no medication or other things).
      The only way I know is hard and needs time:
      Try new movements and stretches and look/feel if the progress you to less pain and more life qualitiy.

    Some that could be aggravated by what you’ve presented
    I do agree,
    your approach is better than a unilateral and arbitrary approach with cat cow.
    But who is suggesting that?

      I've come across many single-exercise approaches over the year which is crazy, or when people are misled by a Google search! Of course these aren't the only exercises for back pain (which would have to be assessed on an individual level) but it's often a good place to start 😁

    I am a snowboarding instructor. I have no discs from L4 and below (well of course I have but you get what I mean), and I do the doggy thing several times through the day and before and after working out at the gym. It's great for an instant discharge, but yeah, it's not a solution. I'll do all these things too. Thanks.

      @@stratman4908 thanks for posting, chronic pain sufferer here 20 years. I have a lot more external rotation right hip/femor, and internal rotation left side hip. They are both still nowhere near normal range of movement, 90/90 is completely impossible
      But opposite side, external rotation left, and internal rotation on right side is absolutely diabolical lol. I need full support of a sofa just to keep from collapsing onto elbows... I'll do a bit of research into this see if it can help. If I sit in the bad side for 20 mins it feels a bit more open for a few hours

Its a lot to digest.. its about what your brain senses.. esp under your right foot.. the arch is critical.. and the link between left psoas and right ql.. and of course the right ql is my nemesis.. it never relaxes.. and neither do i.. lol.. good luck.. and thank you tom.. your videos to help me.. i just wish i could get closer to symmetrical.

    Eh, don't you advocate exactly these movements in your video from 1 year ago - 'How to Deal With A Back Pain Flare Up (Follow Along With Tom)'!?!
    I appreciate that there's other exercises demonstrated there also but it's concerning that you are now contradicting your own advice.

    • @TomMorrison
      @TomMorrison  11 หลายเดือนก่อน

      During a flare yes, long term you have other things you need to improve, most videos will have a different context, if I’m telling someone to relax into a stretch I may not use the same cues for someone hypermobile that needs to create tension near end range positions 😊

    • @yancowles
      @yancowles 11 หลายเดือนก่อน

      ​@@TomMorrison Ah ok, maybe a little more nuance in the title might be useful as it is somewhat confusing if one is already trying to keep at the previous set of exercises.
      I know it's commonplace in the youtube rubric to have hyperbolic headers - 'you're doing this all wrong!', 'stop doing this', 'stop doing that' etc. but not sure it's helpful here.
      Anyway, I do appreciate that we're getting these for free and it takes time and effort to produce a decent video so thank you for the content.
