    Hematoma From Belt

    Sounds like your core muscles aren't strong enough to handle the interabdominal pressure. Work on strengthening your transversus abdominus, rectus abdominus abd obliques. Keep the tension in your belt lower until you're able I handle it.

    Lower Back Injury from deadlift

    First off. An almost unknown problem is flexion between l5/s1. It's very hard to see unless you have knowledge of anatomy, because the back looks completely straight! A common co-symptom is that the client rarely is sore in the glutes. Assess and relearn your hip hinge, as it's likely...

    Shoulder Injured / In the middle of a cut- How to proceed?

    10 degrees difference is considered significant, says Dr Osar in his book. Can you lift your arms (both?) off your back when internally rotated? The higher dysfunction in a stabiliser the higher the up regulation on the other side to "create" stability. Definitely sounds like subscap...

    Shoulder Injured / In the middle of a cut- How to proceed?

    Ps these type of pains are usually a symptom of dysfunction and rarely heal up by themselves. That's why a patient will feel relatively fine for a short time after rest, and then the injury will return.

    Shoulder Injured / In the middle of a cut- How to proceed?

    Alright man, cool :) Look into Evan Osar. Chiro, author, masseur and personal trainer. I learned SO SO SO much from his book and his videos on YouTube and it has drastically changed my confidence while treating clients. I recommend you do a manual muscle test on all your rotator cuff muscles...

    Shoulder Injured / In the middle of a cut- How to proceed?

    Exactly. So enabling the subscap will be key. And humeral rotations primarily activate the subscap, and that will help the compensators relax and chronic tightness will disappear.

    Well that depends what is causing the internal rotation. Look at my modified post please, I added some clarifications.

    Shoulder Injured / In the middle of a cut- How to proceed?

    And why are they internally rotated? Because the teres major, pecs and lats are compensated due to inhibition in subscap. Result is chronic tightness, poor mobility in the rotator cuff and some times humeral anterior glide. It's easy to make that assessment though. Usually there is plenty of...

    Help with muscle imbalance?

    Ankles (calf muscles) and hamstrings. Make sure the bar travel is straight down and not with an angle. Also make sure that the bar is perpendicular with the middle of your foot when in bottom position. Quad weakness is also a problem it it happens during the ascent.

    absolute best move for tricep lateral head

    Close grip is king for lateral development. Make sure you're not allowing the elbows to flare out, but keep them close to your lats during the movement. Grip no closer than the width of your lats. For the medial head, you'll want to relax the long and lateral head, so pushdowns or kickbacks...

    AC joint

    Inflammated supraspinatus and AC bursitis is very common and is an impingement syndrome. I presume this is your problem? First step is to stabilize your scapula. Make SURE that the serratus anterior is tilting your scapula posterity during exercise. Next step is making sure all the muscles of...

    Injuries and overcoming them. (Need support)

    Chronic low back injuries are almost always a result of poor movement. Lack of interabdominal pressure and hinging with the back instead of hips always cause a lot of trouble. Education and experience IS key.

    Shoulder Injured / In the middle of a cut- How to proceed?

    Well, your description is very vague. Anterior deltoid is where the pain is? Most like you have two issues. One is lack of scapular stabilization (strengthen your serratus anterior and learn to posteriorly tilt your scapula during exercise) and two: your rotator cuff is likely malfunctioning...
