Another thing you can do to fix the Psoas (and a whole heap of other issues) is walking lunges. They not only stretch the Psoas but also strengthen it, lunges also rebalance the hips when muscles in the area are out of balance. There’s a Men’s fitness model guy named Craig Gregory and he’s a big proponent for daily 400m walking lunges (if you can’t go outdoors, do reverse lunges on the spot for 15 minutes) he does them for general fitness, wellbeing, fat loss etc it’s the only lower body exercise I do these days, helped heal my knee, a click in my hip, really increased my hip flexibility, weight loss, posture, core etc, after a while you’d be surprised at how athletically explosive you are cause walking lunges simulate an athletic position over and over. The great thing about them is you can take your time, go fast, go slow, just don’t stop for 15 min (obviously work o to it).

[@JRH6271]

Good to know!

[@mmaslav6176]

Lunges are crazy good. I really based my training on them for about 5 weeks. I started to feel like i am flying while walking. But they are not fancy so people dont talk about them.

I find them better than squats for building muscle too.

The visualisations you make for these videos are incredibly powerful, they really change my perspective on how my muscles function to the point where in some cases, it feels like by using this visualisation while activating the muscle, I'm actually 100% using it for the first time in my life, just because I'm trying a range of motion that didn't occur to me that the muscle could do.

[@moversodyssey]

It's always been the same for me. Creative and informed infographic material always helped my mind interface with my body better. A lot of people exercise without ever even realizing they have a poor mind to body connection and far less control than they should have. I'm glad you're enjoying the content!

[@ari4918]

that reverse curl analogy was amazing and really helped my understanding

[@moversodyssey]

Glad it helped out! It was how I had to imagine in in the beginning to really start engaging my psoas during hip flexion.

[@SoulDelSol]

Why is it a reverse curl and not just a curl? What do mean by reverse curl

[@moversodyssey]

@@SoulDelSol Just the position of the hand. The regular curl you grab the bar with palms up and in a reverse curl you grab it with palms down. The psoas attaches to the inner thigh so I had to show it with a palm down grip in order for a hand to get ahold of the inner thigh.

[@BaigelBytes-ip9zk]

[@mayydayyy]

that walk with your hips first tip just changed everything for me!!! I instantly noticed the difference. I was a bodybuilder previously and it's been very hard ot break the rigidness I grew used to from being too big and not flexible enough as well as the movements we use are typically more rigid than yoga type movements.Glad I've left that part of my life behind but it taught me a lot!

[@moversodyssey]

Glad it helped out! Weight lifting, as helpful as it can be, is often terrible for healthy movement. Bodybuilding especially seems to be the healthy movement killer. Though I have seen a lot of people trying to create forms of functional bodybuilding that take care of the problem. Guess we'll see if it works out.

[@Resistculturaldecline]

Barbell training stiffens up my movements, too. Many people related barbell weight training to injury prevention via strength. While i get stronger, the stiffness makes me more injury prone as my mobility slowly becomes arrested. For mechanical health, there's no replacement for a lot of random, variable, natural movements such as sensible physical labor. Necessary range of motion beats unnecessary strength at the cost of range of motion, no question.

[@-Wust-]

I love the examples from yoga and Chinese martial arts. So interesting to see them side by side.

[@thebugman6864]

The incremental art layering is so satisfying and aesthetically pleasing.

[@michaelvanmastrigt7591]

I suffered from low back fatigue, tightness, soreness, aches, muscle spasms, the whole nine for years. I bought an inversion table and began using that regularly. I saw 2 or 3 different chiropractors over a period of years as well. All gave me partial or temporary relief here and there but the problem never fully went away. A few months ago (maybe 3) I began floor sleeping every night. This has COMPLETELY solved my problem 100%. While it’s by no means a perfect solution as my wife sleeps on the bed, it has been life changing for me as my chronic back problems are gone If you haven’t tried it yet, give it a try. It will take a few nights to become accustomed to the hard floor but you’ll quickly get used to it

[@Informalities]

Side lying or back?

[@michaelvanmastrigt7591]

I move around a lot while sleeping. I start on my side to fall asleep but later end up on my stomach. Stomach sleeping on a mattress causes problems for my lower back. However stomach sleeping on the floor does not cause any ill effects or pain or etc and I can’t believe it took me this long to figure it out. Just my own experience though.

[@RyanSnyder_P]

I also sleep on my stomach and whenever I start feeling these pains my solution is to sleep on the floor. I recently tried getting a new mattress that is medium firmness and it helped a bit but I think I probably need a mattress that is extra firm. So to anyone with a similar experience who wants to still sleep on a mattress, maybe try an extra firm mattress if your spouse is cool with it.

[@WeighedWilson]

I had constant lower back issues for decades. Tried the same things as you. 3.5 years ago I got my hands on some thc edibles and they helped me too feel my body. I discovered that my psoas was tight on one side. I started stretching them with a lunge while also rapidly flexing the same side glute. I got some immediate relief and after daily stretching for a few weeks my back pain and tightness receded to almost zero. I think tight muscles might be a cause of disk degeneration.

[@landonian1223]

awesome channel, animations are so cool i was having real bad lumbar pain and tightness, started to stretch on my own two months ago in a yoga-like way, and have been getting some relief. after seeing this channel, i'm nearly 100% positive it's a psoas tightness problem, and am excited to better target it with these recommendations

[@Krysstophe]

This video is insanely slick, well animated and explained. I royally screwed my left psoas when I was about 7 years old. I heard a loud pop and spasms of pain for the next few days meaning I was unable to walk. It was only about 10 years later I went to see a specialist and they told me I had a large amount of scar tissue around my psoas, and that my injury had also ruined my other psoas as my body had tried to compensate. To this day, any hip exercise is pretty unpleasant and my hips grind whenever I do them. I have to pop my hips several times per day to release tension. I do find runner's stretch helps a lot, along with a good amount of yoga!

this is actually such a life saver. I have scoliosis that just randomly developed, hip pain, and as a result due to being a baseball player elbow pain. Im hoping this can help me because all of these issues were so sudden and its been a battle to get through them.

[@moversodyssey]

Usually this creeps in over time and once a hiked hip gets about half an inch above the other side or the functional scoliosis starts to get around 10 degrees of curve, the symptoms start up quickly. Releasing the psoas will help a lot, but if it's been going on awhile you will probably have other muscles that are out of whack as well. The next most important after the psoas is usually the glute medius. It's usually really weak on the high side of the pelvis and really tight on the low side. Give it a shot and let me know if it helps out.

Golfers and tennis elbow in both arms plus much more. I recently tried a psoas strengthening routine from KZbin channel Iamlonggevity, and it has completely changed more body. My shoulders feel so good now. My lowerback feels great. Im waking up in the morning with a spring in my step. elbows feel great now. It's honestly been a revaluation. I've been dealing with these issues for a decade and all i had to do was some psaoa work. The routine is very different from what you prescribe, though, and one exercise in particular i feel did it for me is one where you are in push up position and do donkey kick backs with straight legs on an angle. It works the back of the psoas.

[@Gong-Fu_Hermit]

extremely useful information. In Bagua ("air bending") the circle walking, mud walking, has a lot of emphasis on walking with the hips, or as I like to call it core walking. Running or walking with a bowl or cup of water sort of naturally forces this correct way of walking, a sort of lifting and pushing/reaching out with the hip, and then gripping and pulling with the feet. It is a system of moving while being ungrounded, light footed, you gyroscopically separate the upper and lower halves of the body at the hip, a waitress would probably be familiar with the sensation. The goal like most Chinese marital arts is to let go the anticipation of making contact, that is all anticipation involved, such as ground elevation, level, and what may or may not be on it. No anticipation of what may be there combined with no commitment with transferring body weight until solid ground is found. With the lower body you pull then push everything along as fluidly forward as you can, mitigating as much up and down motion as you can. With the upper body everything above the hip being lightly pulled up by the "head" (spine really) into proper position. When you are fluidly moving forward with minimum bouncing you will have superior momentum. When you cross slipping hazards of any sort, any downward momentum you have has a chance to be dispersed into any direction the most dangerous of which would be left and right. However with the forward focused smooth core walking, you mostly have forward momentum and forward momentum will only continue going forward when you slip and this type of slipping is so much safer and easier to deal with....I guess I ranted.

Felt a little tiring because of how long I'm walking engaging the legs first, having even leg and hips unbalanced. I already started feeling more "flow" in my walking. Will keep on updating.

Thank you I’ve had these issues and never knew what they came from! Walking Lunges here I come.

I really think this is my problem!! Omg it makes sense that popping my back does nothing, but lying on my back with my legs pulled up, slowly letting them down as someone pushes right about my belly button feels like it releases something and I can walk tall again (shown at 5:49 I believe) Man I hope I'm right!!

Try out one of these psoas release techniques and see how it treats you. A lot of back problems are actually psoas problems, probably upwards of 40-50% of the back issues that I see in the clinic.
