Would you ever think about showing us exercises for neuropathy pain in both feet? I know a LOT of people struggle with that.
Will, you honestly are the greatest PT I know. Showing all these helpful exercises, explaining and showing them in a detailed way. A LOT of people are telling you that already on this podcast. Well done!!
I believe neuropathy is linked to insulin resistance. Cutting out carbs has helped people, you could into keto or carnivore diets. Good luck.
Pilates is the best overall exercise program. It addresses flexion, extension, rotation, lateral movement when appropriate for each body. It also emphasizes proper breathing. Thank you for featuring Pilates. I've been practicing & teaching Pilates over 15 years. I'm 76.
Great work! And I agree - pilates as a practice offers some truly fantastic benefits :)
my lower back chronic pain has been reduced greatly since I have been doing 3 basic exercises for about a month now ,,,thank you will ,,,
That is fantastic to hear I'm so pleased you've noticed such a substantial difference!
@@HT-Physio my hamstring site of the thigh and buttock has finally kicked back in after a few years at the gym and pool and including some of your crab residence band exercises along with a few others, it's taken many years to have something which aches in the leg, which many would hate, but for myself after many years it's actually working again thanks
Excellent presentation, quality audio & video, clearly explained with very helpful exercises! Thank you very much for sharing it with us, Will! We truly appreciate it!👋❤👍
Thank you so much for your kind feedback - it's my pleasure to be able to share my work!
@@HT-Physio hlo sir i have sciatica pain.. My mri says - diffuse disc bulge disc dessication l4l5 l5s1 and disc protrusion billateral mild neural foraminal narrowing.. Which exercise should i do sir? Now little leg pain .. Thankyou
How could you improve? This is one of my top 3 physio channels. 💖👑💖
That is wonderful to hear - thank you so much!
Hi. From Mumbai, India. Thank you so much for such good explanation while demonstrating. I am 55 year-old mum of 2 and lived a hectic life as a journo, no attention to health. Can you please also show exercises to beat text neck and rounded shoulders? Thank you.
Now I have new exercises to do for my core. Thank you, Will!
Very happy to help!
Great video. I noticed that my lower back has a tendency to stiffen up at times. I will definitely try this out.
I hope it proves beneficial for you!
thank you for all your videos! 🙂 can you focus on how to prevent neck pain while doing the 100's? I love doing Pilates however I always struggle with neck pain while doing anything lifting my head 🥴Thanks!
release stored tension from your rhomboids, traps, and sub occipitals and you'll be good to go!
?
Use small Pilates ball behind head. Head and neck relaxed focusing on lower and and back to pump arms
Brilliant workout. Phew that was harder than normal but Bring it on. Want to be a really fit 66 year old OAP.
Great work!
Make more on Spine ❤🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Thank you for caring Will 🙏
It's my pleasure!
Three great exercises!!! Thanks 😀😀😀
The origins of Pilates were ALL about the core. Joseph Pilates was in the U.K. at the beginning of WW1 selling his unarmed combat ideas to the police.. He was interned because of his nationality and later his skills were put to use. He developed the basis of what later became known by his name to enable battle trauma victims to cope with missing limbs and other assymetric disabilities due to muscle or nerve damage. Having returned to Germany, he later moved to the U.S. to avoid the political changes happening in the 1920's. He did a lot of work with injured dancers etc. until he died in 1968 when knocked down by a Yellow Cab in New York.
Some more core strengthening exercises Will, you are fantastic, don't ever stop.

@@HT-Physio Thanks so much Will!
I like exercises called 3 because I'm easily bored. Seriously, I like exercises you can do right, left, center. The dips are quite good. My therapist asked me to do that one.
Thank you Will! Time Under Tension is a great strengthening exercise. You are a gift to those who watch your videos.
Thank you so much for your kind comment! I'm wishing you all the best :)
Thanks for the demonstration it's perfect .
Great video will definitely add to my workouts I'm 48 and I'm definitely trying to lose my belly fat and strengthen my core these I believe will help
Thank you
You're welcome!
If you have cervical spondylosis, is the 100 move safe to do?
Great help 😊
Great to hear that!
Hi Will, many of your videos have helped me in many ways. Thank you. Please could you do a video for strengthening the pubic ramus area? I fractured mine two years ago and my physio was brilliant. I’m completely mobile again but am scared of doing it again because we don’t really know what caused it - possibly an over vigorous aqua class 🤣. Like many women my age, I have some osteopaenia but no osteoporosis. I understand that this type of fracture isn’t uncommon in older women so I’d love to know how to keep everything strong in that area but that shouldn’t cause injury again. I really have learned a lot from your videos of what NOT to do for certain conditions. I think a pubic area strengthening video would be helpful for many of us. Thank you so much.
Excellent! I do your workouts every week❤😊thank you
Hooray, Will !! 👏🏼👏🏼
You make it look so easy. I will have a go at doing these excercises but I know its hard. Beautifully illustrated ❤
Your best is all you can do! ☺
thank you Will for throughly explaining the movements.
While I've been familiar with those three pilates exercises, evidently I've been doing them incorrectly, so again, thank you.. you're the greatest!😊
So pleased my video was able to offer some useful guidance to help you get the most out of these movements!
Excellent help thank you very much
Thank you Will !
I have problems with Thoracic Spine pain, T7 - T10.
Your explanations are so very helpful Will. Thanks so much 🙏
Very happy to help!
Nice points!
Thank you!
Hi Will, I really liked this video and could feel my quads working. Do you have one like this for glutes?

Great just what I needed. Cheers Judy
I'm pleased my video came at the right time for you!
great presentation. thank you.
Very happy to help!
Thank you Will I will surely add these for my core to improve spinal stenosis. Also what exercises can i do to relieve meniscus tear and Achilles tendonitis pain both in right leg?
Love your workouts. Thank you.
So pleased to hear you like them!
As always, demo and explanation! 😊
Happy to help!
Thank you for the awesome tips
You're welcome!
could these be mofified so that they could be done in a recliner?
Thank you for this excellent video. Is the hundred safe for people with osteoporosis?
Great examples! I'm going to try this! But how do I do this from the bad mattress? Shall I get a firm mattress topper?
Would you recommend the second exercise for those who already have their head in a froward position? (hunchback)
Nice one Tommy. I liked going under the flag and through the railing. Keep them coming 👊
Do you use gyroflow or is this video straight from the thumb pro?
I like the 100s - the others don't seem to do much for me. I keep retrying the bird-dog, because so many people recommend it, but I haven't found a way of doing it that feels a challenge. Is doing it on the toes rather than knees a viable alternative?
so useful
Great to hear that!
I find this exercise difficult because I feel my neck when I lift my head even though my shoulders are on the mat.
❤
😂 better now
❤️💖🙏❤️💖
❤🎉🙏👍
there are no muscles in the core of the body
there are organs and food
Thank you
You're welcome!
