Mastering the Right Hip and Femur "Reach" for Left Internal Oblique Integration

- This is a video from my online coaching materials that describes how to position the pelvis to integrate the left abdominals and right glute.
Outstanding! After 3.5 years of devoted searching for answers and exercising to fix 35 years of injuries & repeat injuries to right first metatarsal AND broken left ankle. Getting grounded was HUGE! Thanks
Once again, absolute gold!
Bass heavy music activates the vestibular system, which activates your motor cortex. I tend to get tight after prolonged reading (can't touch my toes) unless.....I keep salsa on in the background.
Thanks again for your amazing videos. Well done, my friend.
This is great info. Was watching the simular video the other day. Really like the extra points you talked about. The left left abs finally turn one when I got to my left the first time, that's when I realized just how weak my left side is. BTW - I watch a video where Ron presented to three years ago: Postural Restoration: A New Tool for the Coaching Tool Box, w Ron Hruska and Mike Arthur. This video is awesome. I have a lot of extension in my back when I stand let alone squatting. I really connected with what he said about the frontal plane. Squatting with the abs, glutes, and hamstrings. I have probably done like 100 squats today and I feel great. If possible this topic would be a good video if you haven't already covered it. I am trying to get through your content. Thanks for all you do!
I agree with this! Would be great to hear more about this from you Neal! Keep up the solid content!
thanks for recommending that video- it was great
That is a great video, indeed.
Good explanation Mister Hallinan, thank you
Hey Neal, thank you for the video! Does it make sense to lengthen the right when u are already in laic rbc and lateral pelvic tilt/lumbar scoliosis? If you put all your weight on the right it means the left is shorter. So it makes sense to lengthen the left instead of the right or u will exacerbate the lateral pelvic tilt even more. What do you say about that?
holy shit . this felt amazing. i havent felt my obliques turn on like that in forever.
Now i have to work on taking my 6 pack abs out of it. i also have tendency to anteriorly tilt. but man, this felt great. I just wish when i got up and walked around i wouldnt immediately lose all my gains haha
Great cue, thank you !
Thank you for your videos. Very useful.
You're welcome.
Excellent❤🎉
Bravo, Thank You VeryMuch.❤
This was such a great video. I tend to struggle with lengthening the right side and often end up activating the right low back more. This "reach" cue was helping as well as the tucking of the left shoulder. For the left side lying right glute drill you suggest shifting the right knee forward. At times this takes me out of spinal flexion and closed left side. Do you have any cues for that, and could you describe what that shift forward is supposed to "come from?" Thanks.
The right knee shifting forward is moving the right side of the pelvis forward and turning your entire pelvis and lumbar spine to the left. Maybe you are shifting too far? I don't know. Perhaps you need to round your back more.
Hi, can you do something on sleep position? Its something i cannot get my head around. Im guessing sleepin like above could he beneficial on the left maybe?
My right shoulder is up, I noticed many times. And my right foot is supinated. Also my right leg is weaker and thin.
Specifically it should be left internal obliques? And does breathing into right chest improve right arm internal rotation?
this makes so much sense
Why would I feel right hip flexor instead of glute? I have a right hip hike and feel hip flexor and adductor more in general but I’m confused as under the left aic pattern I should have left hip flexor tightness
At the very beginning you can place a intro, something like, "Hey this is Neal ..." Because now as soon as the video starts you start talking and first few second is difficult to understand.
Neal I cant relax my head on the pillow because I would smash my glasses. Should i take them off just for this exercise to relax my head so my neck relax?
So what exercises will you do once you have corrected your patterns?
Whatever you'd like. You'll always be right dominant, and all PRI techniques work to inhibit that right dominance, to make the right and left side more equal.
I start to feel tight in the left hip and don't feel the left abs. Do you know why this is?
There can be way too many reasons to list here. If you watch my video about why it's so hard to feel the left anterior glute medius, you can just substitute "left abs" for "left glute medius". Same reasons.
Its really hard for me to make my right leg straight in this position. If I make it straight i do not feel my left ab. (Right inner thigh and hamstring are still stiff)
That's typical of a left AIC right BC pattern.
What if your left hip is much higher
hello neal ,like you are sitting cross legged ,so i being n pattern ant be able to sit in this position for long as i do study sometimes on sitting on bed feels discomfort on left hip side so is there any hack to resolve this or which exercose will make it neutral
should my knees be at 90 degrees?
When your breathing and opening up the right side, when you exhale(this is what is confusing me) do you stay in the same position as opening the right side or does your right side drop when exhaling. Sorry if this doesn’t make sense
You want to try and keep the right side open the entire time, while the left side closes with exhalation and then stays closed during all five breaths.
@@NealHallinan thank you Neal!
Would this work for me since my left shoulder is tight and my right hip comes forward. I have been doing pt for 6 months. Had a hip replacement last year. My shoulders always hurt especially the left one. I feel my core is off , any kind of guidance would be appreciated.
Theoretically, yes, but only as part of a larger Postural Restoration program. I suggest you check the PRI website for a provider.
@@NealHallinan thank you sir!
Is that for patho pec?
Hey Neal, I have watched many of your videos I am stuck in left AIC Right BC pattern. I have a lateral pelvic shift, the left side is higher. However, my Left obliques and QL are much tighter than my right. Would you still recommend lengthening my right side obliques? Thanks for all your help!
Yes, I would. What you are experiencing is still the left AIC right BC pattern. But keep in mind that some people will thrive with certain techniques while others won't feel comfortable, even though you are dealing with the same pattern. It can be highly individual as to what people respond well to. Some people also have extra compensation on top of the typical patterns, so they may need to be handled differently. That's why everyone should seek professional help.
Do you not want true abduction of right hip by forcing right hip closer to the camera?
The right hip may roll backwards as you reach, so making sure it’s centered is the important. If you want to bring it forward slightly you can do that. If doing a real technique, keeping the right hip forward is how’d I’d coach it. This video was intended just to demonstrate the concept of the reach that is used in many PRI techniques
That may stretch posterior hip capsule and activate left IC adductor right?
Neal, is this side plank PRI compatible? th-cam.com/video/rKLWWW8YnOc/w-d-xo.html. Another commenter shared it. Side planks have failed me over the years because I've never gotten down a form that gets me out of extension.
Interesting video. To me that seems like a PRI influenced exercise (it's actually in PRI manuals). That said, it's still not PRI because the cue of "pushing the knees" into the ground isn't used.
@@NealHallinan Some months ago you explained how we do side planks in extension and enforce the pattern. This video has done the best so far to actually teach me what I was doing wrong, so I'll give it that. The reaching with the right arm (i'm only doing this on my left side) really gives me a stretch in the abs which is otherwise really hard for me to get (no, prone cobra never works for me). For maybe 5-10 seconds after I get up after doing this 5-6 breathes I feel the left ZOA pull me down but then of course it springs back. That tells me the exercise is going in the right direction.
