Pistol Squats.... you'll never have weak hamstrings again. You'll have to work up to that. Never do hamstring curls on the machine, like he said, that's not what the hamstring is designed to do and puts tremendous pressure on the back of the knee joint.
@joachimthome89043 жыл бұрын
Classical example of tension due to weaker Extensor groups. The disbalance of flexors and extensors leads to tension in the extensors to straighten the body. We learned that as physiotherapists in FAL (functional analysis). Strengthening the tight (and often painfull) groups is the right approach here , good work! IF there is no imbalance only stretching can be the solution, but the feeling is different. Btw. hamstrigs are fast knee benderes and more for hip stabilization (which you hinted at) while the gastrocnemius does the knee stabilization. For active stretching PIR (post isometric relaxation) is also something to look into ;-)

Remarkable exercises: thank you. I always just relied on squats, deadlifts. But learned that wasn't enough. My wife has had over a several year period..an uncomfortable, not painful hip socket feeling. She had gone to a chiropractor who had helped very temporarily with this issue. The last year she had me pull on the leg like a traction device. However, one of your recent videos explained so well about this area. I put her on a 3 x week 5 to 15 reps, min of one set but two preferably with the three exercises. Two of the exercises are yours and one is glute thrusts with some weight. The discomfort disappeared by the second or third workout. She continues to do this work along with goblet squats at least two times or more a week. Now I have her doing some high rep, very light weight db rows, db press and db floor bench press. Again, thanks. This video is for me...I need this work. She's 76 yrs old and I'm 73. I can't do much weight loading anymore....max was 305 lbs a few months ago on the deadlift and my bench sucks.

In these comments: a whole lot of people confusing "tight" with "short" instead of "weak". "Tightness" is an uncomfortable subjective feeling, not an objective finding on examination. "Tight" muscles are generally weaker than they need to be for your lifestyle. Train those muscles up - A strong muscle is a relaxed muscle!
@wabbagaming21843 жыл бұрын
"tight" is synonymous with "short". There are several reasons for a muscle group to tighten. Sometimes its to protect an injury (armoring), sometimes its from being overworked, sometimes it's because the calcium filament never left the actin so many muscle fibers are still contracted, sometimes its because the antagonist mucles are stronger or trained more creating an imbalance in the tension of your body (ie not training lower back while over training abs.)
@IllegalTacos3 жыл бұрын
@@wabbagaming2184 I disagree - while most of the time, the layperson says tight thinking sore or maybe mean short, there are objective studies available that demonstrate tight muscles are not short muscles (on average). Outside of muscle spasm (which I believe is what you're referring to when you say armouring), the only objective finding that can be linked to muscles that are described (by the patient) as tight, was strength (and in most cases, a lack thereof. I think the biggest issue is simply that the word itself is too ambiguous for use in practice. For all the reasons you've listed, spasm can account for them, but not "tightness". If the therapist detects something is "tight" then what do they really mean? Is it short? Is it in spasm? Is it harder than the surrounding tissue? Is it just sore and achy? It's too ambiguous, and there are more clear terms we can use instead.

Here are some tests you can do to help determine what the problem is before trying to address the issue. Unfortunately there is no way for someone to know what your bodies problem is over the internet without doing some at home testing. You can find these tests with an easy google search, as well for other body parts to properly assess ROM to better address your specific body. Test 1: Lay on your back with your lower legs having the option to dangle. Pull your knees to your chest and hold behind one knee and relax the other leg. If your leg does not at least come flat with the surface then your hip flexor is tight. Test 2: Lay flat on a surface and pull your knee up to 90 degrees. Grab behind the knee and extend that leg as far as possible while maintaining the 90 degree angle from the hip to thigh. If you aren't able to reach less than a 20 degree bend in your leg then your hamstring is tight and should be stretched.

But the hip flexors information was useful beyond measure. Thank you. You're in way too good of shape for me to really think I'm doing that stuff. I do the rest of the stretches already. Knees suck. But I can get knee pads. The hip flexors exercise was useful. I'm using 2 minutes of this video but like my son, two minutes can make a life.

But recently, I wore a lot of high heels, and nothing would work. This video saved my life!! Thank you so much!!!!!!! 😊😊🙏🙏🙏

@idahoviking3 жыл бұрын
My 60 years of experience... (1) Sit on the front edge of a chair so your hamstrings hang loose, rather than being squished. Or when possible, kneel or stand rather than sitting. (2) As noted in the video, the hamstrings actually have conflicting objectives, depending on the motion. That is, they flex the knee, and extend the hip. In what natural motion do BOTH of these happen simultaneously? The primary "natural" activity where both occur is running sprints (as the leg rotates under the body to the rear). However, when rising from a squat, the hip extends and the knee also extends. So if you rely on the hamstring in this lift, the only reason it works is because the hamstring has better leverage at the hip than at the knee; and it will be wasting energy. Solution: isolation exercises for improved separate coordination of individual muscles. Particularly, try to better involve the glutes. And try to zero out any quad-related knee pain; otherwise the quads will try to deactivate. And when you flex your knee, try to use only the biceps femoris, rather than the hamstring. Generally, problems in this region result from poor coordination of the numerous muscles, and the most effective athletes are those with the best coordination: they waste the least energy in intermuscular conflict.

Great video. I have some questions about which side each exercise is focusing on since it seems like you switched which leg you were focusing on. Correct me if I’m wrong. Hack 1 and Hack 2: whatever foot is looped in the band is the focus leg. No problems there. Hack 3: front leg with the foot on the rig is the focus leg. Epic feeling. Hack 4: is the goal to strengthen the hip flexor of the same side? So if you’re working the left hamstring, are you lifting the left foot and therefore strengthening the left hip flexor? You’re also opening up the other hip flexor so I’m just making sure I understand what the focus is here. Hack 5: you had the same knee on the ground as 4 but since the goal is to open up the hip flexor, you want the side you’re focusing on to be the side with the knee on the ground right? So that means if you’re working the left side, 4 has your left knee in front and 5 has your left knee down on the ground. Thanks!!
