The Fascia System: Everything You Need to Know to Strengthen Your Fascia | Bill Parisi

He didn't interrupt him once while talking. What a legend. Thank you sir.

[@andreafreely9308]

"Posture hygiene" - "Movement hygiene" - I like this expression

[@AlejandroGonzalez-wo5fk]

This guy didnt teach me to stretch my fascia... But he sured showed how important this is and how asleep at the wheel i was with my body. Thank you very much doctor!

[@TravisTellsTruths]

That man is well educated!!! Love it.

[@JamesGerzon]

Just learning about fascia and this was an excellent discussion. However, what is best about this discussion is that the host lets the expert do the talking, and thus not disrupt his train of thought. Not that every interview works this way as not all experts have the gift of talk and then the host needs to bring out a little more from the expert. Well done for knowing when to intervene, and when just to listen.

[@throrth]

Great presentation of the fascia basics for the masses. Thanks. Namaste 😎🦋

[@gemmadidit4118]

This explains why when i do belly dancing or just intuitively stretch and wind my body, it responds with increased mobility and surprisingly more strength. I use weights but the other stuff i do shapes my body and helps me move more gracefully. Thanks for this. It truly resonates for me😁!

[@wib6044]

This wasn’t a comprehensive “how to”. It was an interview. To summarize…Strength training, done properly, not only builds muscle, but stresses fascia and in turn builds it, which coupled together, improves strength. In other words muscles and muscular hypertrophy are not solely solely responsible for strength.

[@GrGal]

This, but he also spoke about the difference between labor strength and sport strength, saying that it is the ongoing movement and activity throughout the day, which is the labor type unless you are a professional athlete, which builds the most developed FASCIA.

[@Padraigp]

You don't really want strong facsia. Sitting on your butt doing nothing will strengthen your fascia to the point it becomes hard and knotted. It needs to be soft and flexible.

[@Bopmyglizz]

@@Padraigpfalse info, yes you want a strong fascia the stronger it gets it won’t get stiffer, the fascia and tendons are like a rubber band, the thicker and stronger it gets the force exertion will be better and faster when load is on it. Sitting on ur butt weakens it cuz it’s losing its elasticity.

[@Padraigp]

@@Bopmyglizz yes elasticity is whats important. If you sit on your butt your fascia tangles and becomes strong and immobile.

[@lordfufuXL]

@@Bopmyglizz how do you train it

[@gemmadidit4118]

I was just leaning in when it ended!

[@KensleyHomeschool]

Excellent speech. There are billions of these "spider-like" cells that are like a stretchable chain-link fence. Amazing. The last 5 years I have done WAY more "Power Stretching" before lifting weights and the results match what speaker says.

[@hackmasterHQ]

Bill Parisi knows what he is talking about.

[@MrWinnieP]

[@aikibudoMT]

Excellent information. Thank you

[@mgodschachner]

In summary: we need to move our bodies, otherwise we lose more and more of our "body-glue" that makes everything easier and therefor ability ;)

[@gearoiddom]

Thinking about that javelin thrower - the fibroblasts creating new thicker fascia in response to particular stresses seems to me analogous to how osteoblast cells build the sponge in bone to a non-random pattern - a particular scaffolding for handling particular stress. Managed stress (i.e. structured exercise with accompanying rest) is really good for your body. It thrives on it.

[@mindfulmomentswithColm]

very interesting and informative, its pretty self explanatory how to strengthen it once you understand what it is.

[@Kingboldisproductions]

Please elaborate.

[@GrGal]

@@Kingboldisproductions- It is basically strength endurance. The labor worker type of activity - an ongoing movement and activity throughout the day combining broad fitness features wrapping around endurance. You can also achieve it by simply engaging into strength and conditioning program like the average lift-run-stretch trainee, but you won’t be anywhere near the level of a farmer man in terms of FASCIA development unless you are an actual professional athlete… which is fine lol.

[@twelvepetaledlotus1721]

Subscribed. Amazing.

[@bluemagic5829]

This guy told me nothing about strengthening the fascia -- he just provided examples.

[@azteacher26]

Yes. He did. You just weren't listening. I'll help you out so you don't have to rewatch it. Regular muscle building ALSO builds fascia the fascia growth is just a slower process. The guy that coaches the US gymnastic team has said the same. That's why Mr. Parisi mentioned farmers. They start building muscle all over there body all day at a young age and they have a big jump start on other athletes. Basically you train fascia by going back in time and making full body exercises part of your daily life. If you don't have a time machine start now getting more volume and non gym related physical exercise. I'll give you one more example of this. I coach cross country. Do you know who are my most consistent best performing runner regardless of how much running they did before coming to me? Dancers/cheer leaders/gymnasts. Why? Because they've developed serious core strength/fascia and even more importantly rock solid Achilles, calf fascia, foot stability, etc. These cheer girls also outstanding tensegrity (tension integrity) across these fascia networks. This make teaching them running and getting their running volume up a quick process than other runners.

[@Ch0g777]

Any movement essentially conditions the fascia but there are certain forms of training that would enhance the collagen remodelling in the fascia. In my experience (being an athlete my entire life living with a connective tissue disorder that effects my collagen production - joint hyper mobility syndrome and Myofascial pain syndrome) I have had to manage increased adhesion production and joint instability my entire life while also having to strength condition around/through intense phases of remodelling and instability. What I found to work really well, touching on his final point about fatigue and the free motion at the end with the band is - take any muscle to fatigue (ie with a light weight 30-100 reps depending on your endurance capability) once you’ve engorged the targeted “muscle area” with blood and you’ve hit fatigue, rest 10 seconds and perform reps with a heavier weight, repeat until fatigue as close to your first rep count as possible (normally 10-20 reps less), increase weight load again, repeat endurance reps. Rest 5 seconds when needed during the endurance set but complete as many reps as possible for your conditioning level. Complete 4-6 sets. Rest 1 min at the end of this block then perform a compound weight bearing exercise for as many reps as possible (I usually use a cable apparatus for this portion) also 4-6 sets depending on your conditioning level. 10-15 seconds rest between sets, don’t give your fascia time to relax. This would be one example of maximizing fascia conditioning. There are exponential applications that can be used with the correct tempo, rest periods, time under tension, loading, biomechanical changes, compound exercises, added load with resistance bands, utilizing explosive concentric movements with slow eccentrics, performing exercises with enhanced range of motion, paused isometric contractions during an endurance set… I could go on but you get the point 😅 I hope this helps 🙏🏻

@@azteacher26 so basically playing your sport and doing lots of movements already trains your fasica

Been in pain my whole adult life and my rheumy just diagnosed me with connective tissue disease. So I asked does that mean I know longer have fibromyalgia and it seems the fibro comes afterwards. So now that I hurt all over I'm learning that my problem is fascia and spend my waking hours trying to massage my Whole body. Mmm bartering skills kinda like I can massage yours if you can mine. My question does gardening make things worse ?

but how you can train upper body elasticy? bouncy push up?

[@GrGal]

You basically keep your body in movement throughout various activities type, if you will do only push ups for long reps to fatigue day after day you will end up hurting yourself… just stick to a regular lift/calisthenics-run-stretch program man, leave the extra developed FASCIA for people who actually need it like labors or professional athletes, it has no big use for others anyway.
