Have Knee Pain? Untwist It | Wide Infrasternal Angle Case

[@АндрейМалышев-ц6е]

Two weeks without any pain in the right knee!!! In the last couple of months, pain has grown in it, it bothered me periodically before, but now it was hard even to walk, our doctors do not recommend anything except ointments and pills... exercise improving the internal rotation of the pelvis 15:19 created a miracle) I also noticed that I started breathing more on the right side, since it was exhaling all the time and something else) the neck on the right side is not so tense anymore. A real miracle, Zac, I am very grateful to you!👍🤝

[@ZacCupplesPT]

Killing it as always my friend. Happy this stuff helped!

[@АндрейМалышев-ц6е]

How lucky are these folks with whom such a pro works! Me and my right knee are saying thank you very much for the video Zac!🤝

[@ZacCupplesPT]

My dude. You are too kind. Keep being awesome!

[@shoryuken0x]

Holy crap. This is one rare gem video. ❤ this problem was very very hard to figure out

[@jackrobinson3751]

Hey Zac, any PTs in the San Francisco Bay area that you recommend & can perform this type of assessment? Thanks!

[@mehdikhouzaimi7681]

Hey zac, any alternative to the terminal knee movement without bands please ?

[@Blaser614]

Big Z, this has changed my leg. It literally looks different now. So… I do split squat on R side, then untwister, but confused as to how to “push” left. Any suggestions/videos?

[@nico_dipierro]

Hey Zac how did you address the left knee by working on the right knee? I am referring to the last example. In the video you are working on the right knee while keeping it forward and working with the bands as you described

[@ZacCupplesPT]

You can work either side and get improvements, because both sides have to do stuff to induce rotation. But can go the local route if needed

[@isiahrobinson-james9530]

Hey Zac great stuff per usual. Question: do you do the prescribes exercises on the affected leg only or do you address the Contralateral side as well?

[@ZacCupplesPT]

It depends on the person. Goal is to turn the axial skeleton in certain directions, so you could theoretically do things on either leg and get results

[@xthinker2552]

Mr Zack ur amazing. I have this issue but mine is end game wide Isa . Same representation. But limited in early hip flexion on. Left. ( Impingememt) so pls about the push back on quadreped . If that person lack early hip flexion. Am sure that exercise will be promatic right ? . Pls I need ur thought on that pls.

[@ZacCupplesPT]

Yes. You’d want something in less hip flexion in that case

[@holly52ful]

I am bow legged. Have over and lots pain for last five years. Have torn meniscus also in both knees. Any exercises that would help??? Thx for your kind attention

[@Alexgg-qk6og]

You find some help? I'm in the same case as yours

[@BeanyDG]

Why my rib cage popping out from non union colarbone n ankle problem leading to hip problem 💀barely got surgery so after 3 weeks I’ll lyk if I can recover the bottom rib cage feeling

[@ZacCupplesPT]

Hard to say without evaluating, but I hope you have a speedy recovery

[@alexmorris3087]

What are the instructions for the terminal knee movement

[@ZacCupplesPT]

Keep glutes relaxed, whole foot on the ground, straighten your knee - kzbin.info/www/bejne/l5ebaqKlaNh-jNE

[@ericcc172]

Hi Zac! As a person who might have issues similar to this, how would I go about seeking a professional to help diagnose and customize a plan to improve alignment/posture? I've never gone to physical therapy before, so I'm not sure how to go about seeking a therapist and if I should be looking for specific specialties or qualification. Thanks!

[@ZacCupplesPT]

The best bet I've found is to reach out to someone who you respect and see if they know anyone. If you LMK your location I might be able to point you in the right direction.

Zac is so boss. If that dude with that patterning started doing sprints, what would you expect to happen?

[@ZacCupplesPT]

haha my guy! Short answer is I don't know. Much would depend on his training history and such. My guess is it wouldn't go that well LOL

[@patricktoth-meyers5044]

@@ZacCupplesPT then I'll get back to you on that lol we have a similar presentation Dr Sean Omara has some cool stuff to say about sprinting, re upping myokines and dht and shedding visceral fat. I think I'll.... ... ... Giive it a shot!

[@jabezwickens]

Hey big z , doesn’t we need to get the whole femur goes to ER in order to bend our knees?

[@ZacCupplesPT]

Not necessarily. There will be less of it in the extended position, but conceivably someone could bend their knee, but it’s more difficult

[@Doggomorph]

Does surgery on one side of the body cause it as well,

[@ZacCupplesPT]

It can. I have one guy where the twist was magnified by it

[@bhartiya809]

What is normal Infrasternal angle?

[@ZacCupplesPT]

There is none. It’s just a way of measuring structural build. The only thing that should happen with it is it should move
