[@annap1191]

If you have upper traps knots is it wise to perform this exercise?

[@PhysioExercise]

Yes especially than. This will prevent knots in the long run (6-12 weeks of exercising). See it as a horse vs rider, if the Horse is to strong (upper traps) than you need to make the Rider stronger (serratus and lower traps).

[@Checkered_Everything]

Exactly what i needed, you got a new sub

[@TheFreshestLyrics]

Great video! How many of these exercises should I do in one session?

[@PhysioExercise]

I'd recommend 2 or 3 exercises depending on what your training session looks like.

[@TheFreshestLyrics]

@@PhysioExercise Thank you.

[@mangoorange6537]

sir i have a question im having wing scapula but i also go to gym. so should i quit gym or what kind of workouts i shouldn't be doing please reply.

[@PhysioExercise]

Just lower the weights if you feel pain or discomfort when doing overhead exercises, perhaps even with benchpressing. Listen to your body is the best advice i csn give you and wait till the lower trapezius and serratus start stabilizing the shoulderblade better.

[@mangoorange6537]

@@PhysioExercise thank you i wil wait till my wing fix

[@justaperson9460]

That wall slide thing is a killer

[@VisualForceX]

Question : when performing excercises laying down or next to a wall, should I bend my knees so that my back is completely straight? I have anterior pelvic tilt and so when I perform excercises like you do in the video I get an arch in my lower back

[@PhysioExercise]

I'd suggest posteriorly tilting your pelvis a little bit while doing the exercises. Then your pelvis/lower back isn't locked, might take some practice though.

[@sxmanish]

Very nice presentation especially with evidence based Superb

[@mydl6314]

is it supposed to start burning real good in the serratus area after some good reps . wall slide that is? :)

[@PhysioExercise]

Sure. It probably means your technique is great while doing these repetitions.

[@ajmalanzar9934]

Does it cure the scapular winging when the cause is damage of thoriac nerve

[@PhysioExercise]

Depends upon the level of nerve damage. Because if the thoracic nerve is the captain, the serratus anterior is the sailor listening to the captains orders. If the captain doesn't give the orders, the sailor/muscle won't fire, in this case the serratus anterior. Keep in mind that the m. trapezius ascendens also plays a key role in stabilizing the shoulder, it might help to also target that one if the serratus fails to do so. Hope this helps

[@gamergeek500]

Liked your content , how to overload serratus?

[@PhysioExercise]

Cheers! Overload?

[@gamergeek500]

@@PhysioExercise to progressive overload serratus with more weights and effective way

[@PhysioExercise]

@@gamergeek500 My personal favorites are the dynamic hug (plus) (pulley) and Diagonal Flexion (dumbell). But keep in mind that it is a scapular stabilizer, no need to go super high weigths.

What would your thoughts be on performing an exercise similar to the "Wall Push-Up Plus" but on the hands and knees, pushing against the floor?

@@PhysioExerciseI’ve rib hump same side as wing - is it safe to do exercise for both?

[@alexandrebatista1065]

When I do a depression of the scapula, the inferior part of the scapula goes up a bit, is it because of the serratus muscle or the inferior trapezius?

[@JoelTGM]

For the exercise scaption 0-80, does that mean not to bring the arms up too far? If 90 is parallel to the floor then I should keep it just under that?

[@PhysioExercise]

Exactly that. Ofcourse if you don't have any complaints in the shoulder, full range of motion training is allowed.

[@JoelTGM]

@@PhysioExercise thankyou!

[@vader9985]

Should i do all these exercises daily ? Im having scapular winging where my right scapula even goes numb

[@PhysioExercise]

You should pick 2 or 3 exercises where you really feel the muscle working and feel comfortable doing. And.. also target the lower trapezius muscle! :)

[@shwetadubey5165]

Same, is it right now?

[@romansokolov4589]

What is the difference between Serratus punch and hugs - one is unilateral and another bilateral?

[@PhysioExercise]

That. And also the MVIC levels

[@romansokolov4589]

@@PhysioExercise And in the hugs the pecs should be engaged, contracted? Or try to avoid.. What weight to put on the pulley for this exercise? Thanks

[@PhysioExercise]

@@romansokolov4589 because of the hand positioning you will activate the serratus, with a pec flye the hands are positioned differently, so try using your mind muscle connection. The Serratus Anterior is a stabilizer so not to high in the weight, shouldn't punish it the same as pecs, legs, etc.

[@maherjadla2947]

How much do I do each exercise and how many times a week do I repeat these exercises?

[@PhysioExercise]

Atleast 3 times a week, 3-4sets, 10-15 repetitions. Pick 2 or 3 exercises that meet your skill level.

[@Das0000]

Can you train your serratus anterior muscle if you already have some shoulder or spine problem? Cuz I have shoulder injury but when I do the bend external rotation exercise after some point of time doing it (days,weeks) I think I start to feel pain in the center of my spine.because of it. Can it be from the movements in this exercise?

[@PhysioExercise]

Depeding on the injury, yes sure. A weakness to this muscle is very common and can sometimes even be the cause. I don't know which exercise you are referring to though.
