[@Tinyppman]

Jeff! Know im going to love this. I Would love to see a Perfect Posture Video one day, that's one thing I'm always working on and I think is a huge battle for the majority of people out there!

[@nllc9779]

@@Tinyppman perfect posture doesn't exist.

[@Tinyppman]

@@nllc9779 care to explain?

[@nllc9779]

@@Tinyppman If you always have the same posture, even if it's "good" posture, you're just creating strength and neurological control in that specific posture. As soon as you break out of that you can potentially be uncomfortable or get injured. It's important to just move and be in different postures. So when you say perfect posture what specifically do you mean? If you are doing an exercise and the posture you've developed is preventing you from doing the movement without feeling pain, then that should be addressed. But just focusing on posture because posture is supposed to "fix" everything, as if as human beings we are only designed to move a very specific way and we are inherently broken and in a bad position if we are not doing or having a specific movement pattern or are not flexible and we must fix ourselves then I see that as an issue. I agree having slumped shoulders and craning your neck forward doesn't look very attractive and if you want to have "better" posture for that then sure, that's totally fine. In terms of stretching and flexibility (which you didn't necessarily mention but it falls into the same category of thinking) there is zero evidence, zero, that shows that being more flexible - that is to say hyper flexible - is better for long term health. It's actually the opposite because you have to develop strength in those positions or you are more prone to injury. Think of gymnasts and ballerinas. They constantly get injured and they have great flexibility and mobility but they don't have a lower risk of injury.

[@Tinyppman]

@@nllc9779 hold on there, man. You jumped the gun big time on this one and I've definitely heard this argument before. For me "Perfect Posture" doesn't mean always having (proper standing posture) in every other moment you do, as I agree that's not productive at all and you will get hurt. For example someone shouldn't have their shoulders retracted during the OHP due to then developing improper overhead mechanics, that kind of thinking comes from lack of understanding of mechanics and anatomy. That's not what I'm talking about. you cannot deny the majority of the time individuals will spend not in the gym but outside at their desks/else where in situations where proper sitting or standing posture and developing those neural pathways IS important for proper Muscular output and preventing imbalances. "Slumped" Shoulders or Forward Neck posture might seem fine cause it doesn't bother someone in the gym when they possibly do correct themselves, however eventually it will catch up to them outside of the gym. You also created a false dichotomy between "more Flexible" and "Hypermobile"which is dangerous for individuals. I agree that People need to be Prescriptive in their Flexibility routines and not just Stretch everything out without proper knowledge or it can do more harm than good. However having adequate flexibility and Strength and stability in those positions is important, going back to the OHP. Without proper cervical positioning, flexibility in the lats, and stability in the shoulder musculature, you cant safely perform it. Most individuals aren't aiming to be gymnasts or ballerinas dude so that's not the best example to use. What studies are you referring to? Care to link any of them?

[@StephanieStoven]

Love how informative your videos are and actually using research, etc. This is very useful and I will definitely keep this in mind for tonight’s leg day.

[@annienotanne]

This was a super helpful video, Jeff! I always love your science-based approaches AND you present what you're saying clearly. Awesome stuff!

[@andreajgunn]

This was perfect! I find that placing a step riser or a couple weight plates under my standing foot will raise me up just enough to keep my swinging leg a lot more straight without dragging on the ground while swinging.

I’ve always performed the kick backs without having the kicking back leg passing over your support knee. Once you pass this point I learned that your quads end up taking over the movement. Been working for me this way! Valuable tips though, thank you

Today was my first time doing this and I m impressed!! I really felt it in my glutes!! Thanks for these amazing tips!

[@rebekah7987]

This is awesome!! thanks Jeff. I have been doing crossfit for a while and neglected isolation movements which has resulted in imbalances in my larger compound movements. So ive dissected certain movements and with this movement my left glute doesnt fire as quickly as my right. So im really working on having a strong mind muscle connection there. This video helps a lot bc i can tweak my technique with you help and hopefully this will help me feel more of a burn. Thanks again this was very very helpful :) btw good job Steph!

Great work! Could you please do a video that shows all the different variations of cable kickbacks and how to do them with good form? One of my favorite exercises is the cable kickback with an upper body angled at 45° and with the leg kicking back to a perfect alignment with the upper body, but I am not sure I am doing it with perfect form.

[@SiSi-xg1hk]

Ok, I'm prone to hurting myself during the cable kickback & I'm gonna try to implement your technique of not moving my leg straight back behind me, more at an angle like Stephanie showed. I notice that if I swing my leg straight back, it compresses my lower back too much, even when I engage my abdominals to keep my torso in alignment.

Being a guy I wish I had the guts to do this at my gym =/ I'm really trying to build bigger glutes and I'm holding myself back by not doing this one because I'm too embarrassed to do it. I only see girls doing it each time >.

[@bodybybrody2295]

Nothing to be embarrassed about! I played D1 college football and our coaches were constantly preaching the importance of strong glutes. They’re your base! The “chest” of your lower body. So even the more “manly” sports with very grueling training regimens promote glute training! Besides, you’re in the gym for you and nobody else! If anyone judges, that’s their problem. They probably have Hank Hill glutes anyway 🤣

As a guy I like to do what I call stealth glute training… 😂 I use the roman chair/back extension. I adjust the support pad slightly below my hips and angle my toes outward. Then I grab a plate and hold it against my chest and the push forward through the hips to bring the weight up. I keep my back slightly bent forward to prevent the lower back from taking over. I tried hip thrusts for a while but got a lot of weird stares. 🤔
