Is your Pilates or yoga instructor telling you to pull your belly button to your spine during core exercises?

Let me show you why this is wrong and what you can do to fix it.

This setup is completely destabilizing your spine.

The spine derives its stability from being in lordosis. It should stay in that curve.

When correcting this, think of intra abdominal pressure. Find your hip bones and bring your fingers up a couple of inches. Cough.

Now, you will feel your core push outward. This is where you work from - it’s very simple!

You can do bridges, crunch work, squats, etc.

Learn how to do intra abdominal pressure so you can move through life with a strong spine and get better, not older! đŸ”„

If you’re older than 40, it’s extremely important that you know how to properly pick up weight from the ground.

Did you know balance is a skill and can be improved by doing these simple movements?

Get rid of the max cushion shoes and gain knowledge in base of support.

Balance is all about understanding where your center of gravity is around your base of support.

Keep your center of gravity inside your base of support. Leaving your base will result in higher chances of falling!

Practice moving in and out of position and challenge your base of support with your center of gravity on the outside.

Improve the skill of balance and get better, not older!

Are you worried about having bent over posture as you age?

Here are two simple moves to prevent this:

1ïžâƒŁGet down on your knees. Cross your arms and put your forehead on your forearms. Move your knees and push your butt back. Drop your chest and armpits towards the ground. Hold for 3 seconds, come up, and repeat 15-20 times.

2ïžâƒŁIf you can’t go to your knees easily, go to your kitchen counter, desk, etc. Do the same movement! Widen your stance and drop towards the ground for 3 seconds. Come up and repeat 15-20 times.

Now, we need to strengthen the middle and lower traps. Take any band you have.

Pull it open to your chest (20X)
Sword draw the band (20X)
Switch to the other side (20X)

That bad posture is not an inevitability. Fight it by getting your spine upright and getting your muscles stronger to get better, not older!đŸ”„

Did you know this bicycle move can actually create major irritation in your back?

Let me explain to you why you should try a different exercise to build a stronger core.

The spine desires a curve called lordosis.

Working the core while the spine is in lordosis is extremely important because it’s the safest and strongest position for the spine to be in.

Bending the spine over and over again can cause disc issues, which is why you should avoid bicycle moves for your core.

Grabbing a weight or kettlebell and tightening your core with intra abdominal pressure while swinging it back and forth or around the world will fire your core up, help your spine stay strong, prevent injury, and get you better, not older!

Back gave out? Let me show you how to feel betterâžĄïž

Rest in this position for 2-5 minutes and take deep breaths until the pain and spasms calm down.

Before you get up, get onto your hands and knees and try this modified bird dog. Do 3 reps per side & hold each one for 10 seconds.

Go for a 2-5 minute walk while bracing your core.

***With thoracic mobility, like standing thoracic extensions, do 2 sets, 15-20 reps, and hold each position for 3 seconds.

Try this Couch Pigeon Stretch for the best results! ***2 sets per side and 10 reps per side, hold each one for 5 seconds***

Walking several times throughout the day and repeating the process until the pain goes away will help you get better, not older! đŸ”„

Are you getting that pinching feeling in the front of your shoulder when you lift your arm overhead or out to the side?

That could be something called shoulder impingement, and it is not something you want to ignore.

Let me show you how using a resistance band for just a few minutes can help reduce that pinching and improve your shoulder mechanics.

Start with a medium resistance band anchored low, around knee height. The reason for this lower anchor point is simple. When the shoulder and shoulder blade ride up, it creates that pinching sensation in the joint. We want to traction the shoulder downward to create space.

Place the band over the top of your shoulder and step out to create tension.

If you are working your right shoulder, step forward with your right foot.

From here, gently search for where you feel the tightness. Let the band pull your shoulder down and back. This helps stretch tight chest muscles and allows the shoulder to move into a better position.

Slowly move your arm through the range where you feel restriction, up and down or forward and back, while keeping the band tension.

The band helps hold the shoulder in a more optimal position so the ball of the joint can move better in the socket.

Spend a couple of minutes working through each direction that feels tight.

This can help loosen the shoulder, reduce pain, improve mechanics, and most importantly help you get better, not older.

Every single day, I see patients doing this trash move for their lower back pain.

The vast majority of lower back pain is caused because the spine is not staying in lordosis.

❌If you do that first stretch, you’re rounding your spine, meaning you’re taking yourself out of lordosis. This causes an irritation to the spine.

Instead of harming your lower back with the first move, try it this way:

✅Sit on something stable
✅Get into this position without collapsing your spine down
✅Slightly turn your body
✅Come forward until you feel a nice stretch in your glute

Spare your spine. Get better, not older! đŸ’Ș👏

Walking on a cushion is very unstable and TERRIBLE for balancing.

Believe it or not, your foot is designed to work like your hand. You need to grab the ground to get traction and have balance.

Wearing a super cushion shoe, you’re at risk for rolling your ankle, falling and experiencing foot pain.

Peluvas are so effective for foot health, balance, and strength in your foot and ankle because they’re designed to move the way humans move. We should have 50° of big toe movement.

If you can’t bend your big toe the way you need to, your risk of falling increases significantly.

Do you want a strong and stable foot? Get yourself some Peluvas and get better, not older. đŸ”„đŸ‘Ÿ

Do you have shoulder pain in either of these places?

Let me show you how to find the root cause of this pain to actually fix the problem.

When your shoulder comes up and dumps forward while weightlifting, that puts a tremendous amount of strain on the bicep tendon and rotator cuff.

Instead, moving the shoulder up down and back using your trapezius muscles will set your shoulder blade in a neutral position and relieve that pain.

In order to activate and feel your middle and lower trapezius, try these exercises:

1ïžâƒŁDynamic Blackburn
Lay down on the ground and move your arms from 0 to about 110° of abduction.

2ïžâƒŁ Place a band around both arms, retract your shoulders and drop them down to feel these muscles working.
