Excellent! I have been experiencing cramping in my hamstrings while doing my bridge exercises. Over the years, I’ve gotten tips to help do the bridge better. The pelvic tilt to flatten the back was one. In a group gym class, there’s not enough time to thoroughly work on one exercise. Your video was great because it discussed the right way to do this valuable exercise. Thank you.❤

Thanks for this and your clear explanation. I was prescribed this exercise 2 weeks ago by my physio for sciatica (which came on with flu last November) but I'm still struggling to move my back off the mattress at all because of the intense pain whenever I try this movement. I've been hoping it just needed practice so I've been persevering for 2 weeks, but I'm at the point of wondering if it's doing more harm than good as it always brings on pain. I'm 70 and I took note of the 4 exercises suggested in your video 'Sciatica in Seniors'. Unfortunately it's 4 weeks to my next physio appointment and I may not be able to reach her by phone. So I'd be very grateful for your advice.

You are so right Will!!! I had 2 primary goals after hip surgery: strengthening the glutes without unduly burdening core muscles and working on hip abductors. I had a really great physiotherapist who used a resistance band around my knees (have seen squeezing a ball but you explained everything perfectly when executing the bridge) and started with an isometric warm up just squeezing glutes and contracting ab muscles to flatten the spine. (socks tip great btw) Also of course doing everything slowly to avoid .... well just messing up lol, the biggest takeaway from me, who really was starting from zero!!!!! The other standard exercise for another day for fellow hip survivors is I believe still called the oyster *also used resistance bands for that one) which was specifically for hips. There was a lot more but no pun intended, those two were core.😊😊As always tx!! Your clients are lucky indeed. Note to self and others; I was in a great hurry to get better and never missed a day and found that being sensible and waiting for muscle recovery depending on one's level of fitness was a mistake I made initially which slowed me down a bit developed plantar fasciitis because gait when walking remained uneven, now resolved.... did take a while. Canada has like the UK universal health coverage but I had limited access to the number of appointments so was winging things a bit, inevitable ... sorry for long message hope it was helpful for someone.

I broke the head of my femur off while going through the Denver Airport, which was a “Good News / Bad News” scenario. The GOOD news was I doubt there’s another place in the U.S. who’d have any more knowledgeable surgeons to deal with my injury, given that they are probably well practiced at their craft due to skiing injury frequency rates there. The BAD news was I went home - to another s t a t e ! - with no game plan for P.T.!! I thought I was to start t h a t process A F T E R I was healed and quit hurting! W R O N G !!! Three months after the surgery, still having pain, AND walking BENT OVER with a WALKER, I sought input from my G.P. who referred me for therapy. I will say it helped, but T H E best outcome - which came as a fluke, because my regular therapist had to be away something like 3 weeks - came in the hands of therapy TECH who “laid hands upon me” and massaged the areas that had been taken over by SCAR TISSUE!! She managed to break it down over those 6 or so sessions, and - Heaven above, please bless & protect her - I walk upright, with no limping or pain, and dance in my kitchen to my tunes!!! I encourage everyone who sees this, DO N O T HESITATE TO PUSH FOR THE HELP YOU NEED !!

@@kkrolf2782OMG you are so right! At one point because of delays I found a podiatrist of all things who taught me to used a massage gun which I still do as needed but can take my dog out. A lot of hard work and stops and starts, but 68 I'm not frail, I don't depend on people for everyday functionality I didn't have to give up my dog (she doesn't know it but she is the meaning of love; my husband passed a lot of people find themselves with no-one to depend on or in fact want to.) It's crucial. Wonderful comment! Thank you!💕💕

Thank you for your comment - it sounds like you set the perfect post-surgery goals and that you took great care to do things properly (which is the most important step). Recovery takes time and patience but the results are worth it. Thank you for sharing your experience!
