You definitely are underrated and deserve more!

[@ICUP920]

Great instruction. Long time PRI patient and I found this useful for improving gate with my LAIC/RBC pattern.

[@ChaplinPerformance]

As the great Mike Cantrell once told me.... The left leg is only half the program!

[@ICUP920]

@@ChaplinPerformance so true

[@amyhoop9651]

This is fantastic! This helped me so much! My gait immediately improved. I always felt like I was pulling myself forward instead have just easily walking. I knew I was twisted but this is the best video that has helped me. Thank you for a standing, quick, easy version to help get me started. Your instructions are the best. I appreciate you and all the content you provide.

Thank you, Greg!

[@loriwilliamson5738]

Fantastic instruction and cueing as always! Thank you for what you do.

Would you aim for Foot pronation oder supination in this Position?

[@Bikkufootballtalks]

I have saitica too does it fixed ?

[@robertabrozic3278]

Love the video.i a. Hiked on tight side i als I have severe pronation and duck feet need exer ises for this do i have the pronation and duck feet becsuse of my hiked hip? Ty

[@jimmymoser]

Great video. I have a right side hip hike and when most of my weight is on my right leg, my right hip starts feeling crampy and tight. My left hip feels fine when most of my weight is on my left leg. Left leg is functionally short by about half an inch. Little internal rotation on either leg. Does that sound like a muscle imbalance or a structural issue?

[@ChaplinPerformance]

Can't really say based on this description. The hike usually results in a shorter leg on the same side, not the opposite.

[@RKCOMPILATIONS]

This came on time but I’m in the worst position. I had anterior pelvic tilt, then it turned into a little bit of upper cross, then swayback, then I had a pinched nerve which caused l piriformis syndrome on my left leg which completely turned out AWAY from my body with the worst pelvic tilt. I feel like my body is twisted so now my shoulders and other leg are getting affected. My whole body is thrown off now . I can’t even walk by myself because it feels like I’m walking in a circle and can’t catch my balance. It’s been causing my neck to hurt, back, my pelvic region seems tight and closed off due to the swayback. I don’t know what to do

[@2fastnfurious4u]

Try some Feldenkrais integrative sessions, or Gonstead chiropractor

[@ChaplinPerformance]

I'd start with some gentle rolling and breathing exercises, then progress to basic bracing... And don't underestimate the power cyclical activities like getting on a bike - the body can HEAL!

[@walout13]

Hi Greg, i just want want to describe to you my case of asymmetry because i didn't find any video that explains it , so i think i have a left aic pattern where my right palvis is hiked and turned backward the opposite for the left but i have a tight tfl and hip flexor on my right hip with a lack of internal rotation , on the other hand opposite to the right BC pattern my left shoulder is more Forward and my left obliques are so tight and much stronger then the right ones , my left shoulder is higher but when i walk i always find myself hiking my right shoulder and turning it backward( this is the opposite of right bc pattern) and the left side of my neck is tight (my neck is tilted to the left ) can you give me some advice about what should i do , sorry for the long message

[@kellyk.8287]

Greg, do you find that when one hip is higher, the femur is rolled in, or would this be abnormal biomechanics? In this exercise, you’re coaching us to internally rotate the hip that’s higher, but in my body, my L ilium is higher (iliac crest, ASIS, pubic bone all higher on the L) and the L femur is strongly rotated in. It’s brutal because if I allow the L leg to be internally rotated, then I’m pigeon toed with a circumduction gait. So most of the time, I point the L toes straight ahead, but then my L pelvis rolls back (belly button facing L), presumably to keep my L femur rotated in, and I’m stuck walking in circles to the left (or at least my body pulls strongly in that direction). I’ve been reasoning that my L femur is rotated in because the L ilium is higher. But now that I’ve seen your video, I wonder is my reasoning is incorrect. Are there multiple reasons for a high hip? Maybe lateral tilt vs. an ilium upslip? Is upslip even a real thing? Any insight you can offer is much appreciated. Thank you for your videos!!

[@ChaplinPerformance]

Good questions. An upslip is real most likely, but it's 2-3 degrees of motion, so if it's visually apparent, chances are that it is an orientation of the whole pelvis in space laterally. That strategy to hike the entire pelvis is trying to help you acquire a compensatory state of internal rotation. Most people that have a leg oriented into internal rotation and adduction don't have an ability to maintain the leg in neutral and push straight down. Usually your tested IR will be limited and if not, your pelvis is significantly anteriorly tilted. There are also possible structural differences in the acetabulum that can account for excessive IR. So yes, many reasons. But regardless, restoring access to your best non-compensatory stance positions will be beneficial.

[@jake407]

Good luck!

[@2fastnfurious4u]

How to identify which side is hiked? I always tend to stand with my weight on the right leg (left AIC right BC), but it's counterintuitive to me that the right hip is then hiked 😕

[@ChaplinPerformance]

It's **how** you are standing on the right leg, not if! If you are always biasing spinal extension and lateral flexion towards that side, you are "faking" right stance

[@kellyk.8287]

That’s a great tip! And a great reminder. Just because the weight is on the R leg, doesn’t mean it’s proper right stance. Thank you!

[@sandyny]

Can people with scoliosis still benefit from this exercise ?

[@ChaplinPerformance]

Definitely

[@sandyny]

@@ChaplinPerformance thank you

[@cindygaudet1390]

Omg this is what is wrong and first video have found,thanks!

[@ChaplinPerformance]

Glad I could help!

[@xgreco]

Get into tai chi - proper biomechanics and posture. Case closed

[@ChaplinPerformance]

I'm glad you closed the case. I was wondering what to do!

[@xgreco]

​@@ChaplinPerformancethe exercise that you propose, is the very first drill taught in a Tai chi class, called the Tai chi walk. Yeah, based on the gait theory, proper alignments and biomechanics. And that's only the beginning of a never ending journey with numerous benefits, where awareness, breathing and motion are all combined in an ancient exercise. Lots of academic research on Tai chi. I might be wrong, I am not a scientist...

[@user-lu3re2rr4bo]

This is money !! Thank you.

[@jake407]

This is the usual one size fits none. People with scoliosis have uneven hips for very different reasons. These kinds of exercises might make it even worse. They should flash a danger signal before the video starts cautioning people that these suggested exercises have a whole bunch of implied assumptions.

[@ChaplinPerformance]

There's a disclaimer in the beginning. The video is intended as education to help understand the WHY and give you some exercise ideas. This doesn't mean it will work for everyone, including some with clinically significant scoliosis. As always, you should work with someone one-on-one if you want a tailored approach specific to you. With that said, we are all human beings with similar anatomy. We use our bodies in predictable ways throughout the gait cycle (with exceptions of course). The restoration of normal gait mechanics is very helpful for most people. This is the same reason why general movement patterns like squatting, hinging, toe touching, etc. are generally good for everyone.

[@jedrashidul6952]

Bruh ur wrong. Ur math not mathin [ PV = nRT ]Where:( P ) is the pressure( V ) is the volume( n ) is the number of moles of gas( R ) is the ideal gas constant( T ) is the temperature

[@jedrashidul6952]

In simpler terms - size might differ bit we all fart the same way (ideally of course) less ur a tight arse in which case pls check ur anus sequencing lololol
