RELEASE Upper Trapezius & Levator Scapulae Muscle Tension FOR GOOD

Stop stretching to release upper trapezius and levator scapulae muscle tension! Instead, we're going to actively retrain and repattern how to move without creating dysfunction and pain.
First, learn why the upper trap and levator scap get tight. You've probably guessed the root cause if you've followed the channel for a while. Coach E breaks down each step in the chain of compensations that eventually lead to pain.
Exercise 1: You'll need a foam roller. This exercise will help mobilize your spine, release any stiffness you've been carrying around, and restore extension.
Exercise 2: This solidifies the extension and mobilization from the first exercise. You'll activate some deep muscles that will help you effortlessly hold great posture all day. Remember to make the double chin and avoid hyper-extending the lumbar spine. Don't let your rib cage flare.
Exercise 3: You'll decrease tension by practicing activating the upper traps and then intentionally releasing them.
Exercise 4: Here, you'll restore the activation and strength of the serratus anterior, undoing the imbalance with the overworking upper trap and levator scap. You'll need a resistance band. If you don't have one, you can use a rope or a pair of pants. Focus on posterior tilt of the scapula.

You keep on talking , you do a great job of explaining why and what to and not feel!! Very important to understand the physical mechanics that are responsible for why you have pain, weakness, etc. If you know why you are doing it, you’re more likely to be consistent with doing it 👍👍👍

[@lauradavis1766]

what? who possibly thinks you talk too much?? you talking is the entire reason I follow your videos and no one else. I LOVE your physiology approach!! I'm a medical doctor and am curious and want to know the science behind what's happening from a medical and scientific perspective. There are SO many physical therapists online, they have many of the same exercises as you do, but goodness gracious, you're in a league of your own - no one is as good as you in terms of a medical and physiology perspective. Love it. And love the articles you cite - I've looked up several of them and talked about them to a few of my patients. If you would make any change, I vote for more physiology, more data, more science!!

Anecdotally there could also be a correlation to elevated stress/distress/anxiety levels. Itself could also be related to holding the sit desk posture for long hours (having a lot of work to get through). IMO also worth checking in on one’s emotional state (we experience our emotions physiologically, it’s not just an abstract thought) and broader wellbeing

Wow!! This was SO in lightning for me. In just this video, you’ve answered so many questions I had. There is something I don’t quite get with your explanation around minute 4:10 (this could be probably the topic of another video?) : with weak LT and SA, you say that the scapula has less upward rotation and can cause impingement. I would have though that, because there’re weak and in a lengthen position because the UT and LS are overworking (so in a shorten position and pulling already on the top part of the scapula), that this would facilitate the upward rotation of the scapula, in a way, no?! Aren’t the UT and LS the muscles that are normally activated at the end of the movement when we lift the arm strait up? By the way, don’t stop what you are already doing so well! You explaining the why behind the problem IS EXACTLY what I love in your videos, as well as the quality of your exercices. Understanding the root cause is essential to change the things that aren’t good for our body and be/stay motivated in doing so. Thank you so much!!!

This is a difficult question to answer. Essentially: 1. A strong background in anatomy, physics, biomechanics and physiology 2. Real world experience in both rehab and performance (elite athlete S&C) 3. Constant learning and experimentation on myself and others 4. Time to think about problems and come up with solutions vs. blindly accept the standard approach Not sure if that's helpful, but it's what I think is the truth.
