      just wanted to point out a wrong conclusion in your video. you mention sitting as a cause for anterior pelvic tilt. but it should be obvious just by looking at the image of the spine of a person sitting, that sitting usually results in kyphosis of the lower spine aka posterior pelvic tilt. the very image you show at 4:16 shows a posterior pelvic tilt. hence the conclusion is that when sitting (in a slouched position) the hamstrings are in fact in a shortened position due to bent knees and posterior tilted pelvis.
      Hope you take this as constructive criticism, as is intended.

    I graduated from physical therapy school in 1984 and took me years to realize muscles get tight for a reason. This video is 100% correct. Strengthening exercises are generally more important than stretching exercises.

      @elenajehrlich3796 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Correct or not, in the discussion can be found out the correctness answer for the individual problems and approaches. And without the strenghthening of the related muscles can the strenghtening be impeached bei the dysballanced muskelgroups.

    I completed my associates degree in Physical Therapy Assistance in 2000, but never used it, but I have plenty of knowledge about muscles and ROM, etc. I exercised daily until I turned 30 and then a traumatic experience caused me to quit exercising consistently. I developed chronic trigger points in most of my muscles and even the smallest of tweaks will leave me in pain and unable to move effectively for days. I have slowly developed a bunion that effects my right foot and wearing barefoot shoes has helped that tremendously. Your bunion videos have helped me to understand what I need to do. I have also struggled with tight hamstrings after sitting through much of COVID and completing my education degree online. I will take the information in this video to begin to strengthen my glutes and get my hamstrings in better shape. Thank you for providing relevant and understandable content!

      @UnCompress_ ปีที่แล้ว +21

      Start doing kettlebell training. Kb swings (hip hinges) are the best to re-activate the gluteus. Turkish get ups, clean and press and snatches. For core workout I would advice club and mace/gada training. Do your inside and outside mills and shiekd casts and 360 and 10-2 gada swings. You will be amazed with the results after 6 months.

    I’m 59 and have always had tight hamstrings. Sitting up on the floor and touching my toes was something I could barely do even when I was in my best shape 30+ years ago.
    I’ve tried every exercise, stretch, etc out there. I basically decided my DNA made me this way. And that I’ll be lucky to tie my own shoes when I get to my 70s.
    This is the first time I’ve every had an A-HA moment about this issue and thought (maybe wishful thinking) that this could actually help me.

    At first I thought this was about (how) to loosen and 98% was about (why) we have them in the first place. Some even critiqued as well. The very last bit says what to do about it although not showing exactly what to do. Upon reflection I took away some key points 1. Understand root cause and prevent it in the first place - best method EVER. 2. Improving is as much about not doing, as opposed to doing. 3. Stop looking for quick fixes. Sitting for 12 hours or something you have done for 20 years is not going to be resolved in 2 minutes. Thanks for the insight.

    I've always had tight hamstrings. And this video makes a lot of sense to me now. I do spend a lot of time sitting down. I go to the gym, but I don't really do focused glute or core exercises. The first time I tried a hip trust machine, I could feel my glutes burning like crazy. Very informative.

  • @yonanz
    @yonanz ปีที่แล้ว +4

    genius and explained with stunning clarity. I have chronic hamstring tightness and after researching and trying out many exercises, I can attest to this. tight muscles are due to overcompensatory actions for muscles that are not doing their job. and the logic is brilliant. we have so many muscles in our body but we dont ever stretch them - why are they perfectly fine? you have gained a sub!

    As a massage therapist, I totally agree! My experience is clients who regularly strengthen with weights or calisthenics don’t have nearly as many complaints as the clients who are sedentary. Also sitting at a computer, driving, looking down at the cell phone, etc, causes ventral drag with issues in the neck and back. Esp. Behind the shoulder blades (rhomboids, levator scapulae, etc…).

      @uncletrashero ปีที่แล้ว

      yes i am struggling with both problems because i drive for a living. i have glute amnesia and my shoulders hurt in every possible way lol. one thing ive found is a problem is that all chairs/seats have flat high backs (or worse backs the curve forward at the top) which means the pressure when sitting back against them is constantly pushed the shoulderblades forward of the spine. need to find some kind of skinny strip of dense foam or something to run up the center of the seat backs between your shoulder blades to rest the spine against to give more room for the shoulder blades to rotate all the way back

      i also used to have feet problems when i worked a standing job for many years, but i started wearing nothing but sandals or crocs all year round (no more closed shoes) and my toes spread out and my feet and ankle problems all disappeared after a couple years. have stuck to flat based open toe shape shoes (mostly crocs) for almost 15 years now and feet and ankle problems have never returned. and my toes actually feel strong and i can stand on them and grip things with them. its amazing how much more natural it feels

The gluteus are the main engine of the body, they do not only help the hamstrings to relax but also save the lower back. Since I start training reprogramming my body many phisical problems simply dissapeared. Great video.

    Great video presentation and very intriguing approach to address a core problem that plagues so many of us. Please allow me to address your voice. There are ways to train the muscles we use to voice a presentation to relax, fall back and by doing that we change the pitch, the note or the scale. For fun: say a few words in German and in French and you will see, feel what you contract and relax. I have this characteristic in my voice. When I make a presentation I think to myself: "I work hard to get here so I have the right to choose the pace and it is worthwhile for them to listen, learn and they enjoy it very much".

    As a standing desk user for 15+ years, I've continued to fight tight hamstrings and hip actuators. Standing is still pretty a static position and, if you already have poor compensation for weak hip actuators, you still won't see improvement. For me, adding floor sitting (actually, sitting / squatting on two 16"x20"x24" plyo boxes to form a 16"x24"x40" platform) in front of my adjustable desk has made a lot of progress on activating these muscles in the hip and core.

      agree, I also have a standing desk and 2 things.
      Make sure it is up for when you go in the office in the morning and not at seated height. Start the day stood, this helped me stand much more often
      One of the benefits no one really talks about from a standing desk it it goes lower than a normal desk, so my posture is much better when sat at the desk.
      As the saying goes though, the best position is the next position, don't stay in any one for too long. we are designed to walk 12 -15 miles a day, not stay in these positions.

    Amazing material. I am still working through my lower/upper cross syndrome and I understand and can apply to everything what was mentioned in this video. Glutes amnesia, fixing pelvis tilt, strengthening your core, less sitting, more walking/lying down (you can actually activate your glutes while lying down on your bed and have same posture as standing basically).

    id love to see a more detailed video about glute reeducation techniques-and if i had three wishes, id spend the other two on videos on re-educating the equivalent paired muscles for tight psoas and tight QLs

    This seems like good material, as far as it goes. But I'm not a fitness expert; I have no idea what you mean by "re-educate the glutes," "hip extension mobility drills," or "enhance core stability." You need to give some examples and/or links to other videos, to cover these topics with specific exercises. Thanks!

    If the gluteui muscles are not working, as per your theory , and the hamstring muscles are overacting, it should make the hamstring muscles more powerful and less chances of their being injured.
    In fact hamstrings or calf muscles both often getting cramped because what I have observed, due to irritation of them by some fault ( could be quite slight) in the L4, L5, or S1 and S2 ( lower back) or in the posterior hip like gluteus minimus , piriformis etc. Try to rule out any possible source of trouble in the above areas and if not , simply sits up can strengthen the hamstring muscles along with lower back and hip muscles.

    Really great explanation of tight hammies from anterior pelvic tilt. I would like to add that some people do indeed have posterior pelvic tilt as well - less common but about 1/10 of my clients have it. It’s common for people who work standing and/or runners. For people like this stretching the hamstrings and activating the hip flexors really helps (and of course core work is always a plus)

      @@uncletrashero situps do indeed work the hip flexors but they also pull the ribcage down towards the pelvis, and a lot of people with posterior pelvic tilt already have hunched upper body posture. For my clients with PPT I have them do lots of pushing their knee into their hands (from a supine position) and doing standing knee lifts - works wonders :)
