YT needs an option to add shorts to favourites. Invaluable info!

There's only so much I can do every morning 😅

This is very true. When I got into my car accident 3 years ago, I had to do physical therapy for 6 months for this twice a week and let me tell you, as time went on, not only did I heal at a faster rate (cause after 3 months I would practice at home along with other home exercises/stretches) the definition in my back was defined. 😊🤞🏾

This is exactly what I needed. I pulled my left trap a couple months ago and it's never been the same since. Hopefully this helps with that. Thank you!

I swear Squat U always uploads the video I need whenever I have a specific body part pain.

How the fuck does he know

Dude ever since I fixed my posture, I've had this EXACT problem in my back. Even the same side. Tried this exercise, and my left side with the pain has literally like 20% the endurance as the right side lol

Important to not push hard with your forehead to the ground

But just keep it there for the lightest stability

THIS IS LITERALLY HEAVEN SENT WOW THANK YOU

[dudejoe]

I do these for prehab before handstands. Difficult, but gets the job done.

[philnixon]

Just tried that and felt it in my lower traps immediately, will add this into my weekly routines to help strengthen that area, thanks

[dawnmic.herring]

Wow. I needed this thanks since my back surgery I've had some trouble with certain movements and I didn't know I could resolve it with this exercise!

[sixtwoinak]

Looks like I can benefit from this one. Thank you. 👍💪🙏

The head position and forward neck posture in an isometric contraction is problematic for numerous reasons. The head should be held up off the ground in a neutral neck position, stabilizing the entire spine while working the arms. The neutral spine and head position is also the correct point of reference for the true function and ROM for the shoulder girdle and ACH joint. At first, these should be done as scapular ROM in prot/retr/elev/depression with arms at sides. The demonstrated exercise is forcefully training the entire neck complex in FHP which is clinically maladaptive and causal for nerve impingement, headaches, pain syndromes. Please consider revising your advice so that people do not end up creating new problems.

LUV this. I’m an LMT in NY and I used to have almost ALL my clients do this exercise. Pretty much everyone needs it these days 😅

If that guy on the table is lacking *strength* and that’s why his back hurts… then we’re all fucked

I love how when I'm scrolling through the shorts I'll tell myself "all right, I need to get back to work" but then I see gems like this and it's just reminds me sometimes you got to scroll through the bullshit

[abigailsmith]

Wowww! I can already feel this helping. Thanks!

[ronmorey]

Wow, I've been having pain in that exact area. Thanks!

Saw this on athlean x video for “corrective” excercise, those that struggle to do this every morning, you just add it to your gym workout when you do shoulders, at the end do this, Jeff said it works your traps and rotator cuff and is best to do at the end of push/shoulder workout

[AmericanCopperDragonChile]

I'm pretty sure this is one of my exact issues.
