You can watch this mans videos and just fix yourself because he brings the self awareness that develops itself when its understood.

Your videos have been literally life-changing for me. I’m a singer with hEDS and these demonstrations with the skeleton are helping me figure out how to fix my body. It’s such a relief to be able to breathe.

You're the only person I've seen on YT who addresses the rib cage and breathing + hips. Everyone just says do chin tucks and do back exercises to get your shoulders back. Nice job man and thank you! I picked up your body restoration course so will be going through that.

I did the last exercise just now, and woow it starts to heat up while Im breathing. Feels like these areas of the ribs was never really moving. Thank you again, cause your exercises really help, everybody is able to do them alone at home, no therapist needed :) you even show us perfectly how not to do it, thats very important :D to avoid pain with wrong movements.Even my grandma is surprised how highly efficient these easy exercises are.

I’ve had neck pain from a couple of factors, including forward-head posture and hinging my neck. I tucked my chin lots for a couple of months and made it worse. This video explains the true resolution. Thank you.

We are on the same page when it comes to understanding the root causes of these issues and helping our clients understand the many factors that contribute to their imbalances, deviations or disfunction. Thanks you for putting it out there!

You're an angel. I have been doing the chin tucks but it's aggravating my tension headaches and pain radiating down my shoulder.

This video is a God send! So much info that can help me address some life changing symptoms i have been struggling with! FHP that has cause tight neck muscle which are agrigating nerves and arteries causing major anixety sensations, chronic fatigue syndrome, head aches, ringing in the ears, shortness of breath and heart palpitations. Really looking forward to doing these exercises on a daily routine 😊

I've always struggled to breathe (which sounds strange to most people), this is the first time that I've heard anyone link poor breathing to forward head posture.
This is really useful, I'm going to explore this more.
Thankyou very much👍

Completed the first 3 primary PRI courses last year. I appreciate the work you put into your videos. Thank you.

I have this forwardhead and kyphosis condition for years and tbh haven't been doing any exercise regarding this. Just simply been living like this but I'm 34 now and it really is beyond unconfortable. SO I was searching and watching videos, still not doing any exercise :') anyways you are the first person to talk about the pelvis and breathing connection on about all this condition. my humble suggestion is that you can add these keywords to this video so that more people can find this. i was watching posture videos and i guess that's why i got this recommendation but never tought that there will be a pelvic exercise from the title.

[MaxOakland]

I like how you pointed out we need to look at the root cause of the problem and not just treat the symptom. That makes me think you’re gonna give good advice overall!

[BenDol]

I was told to do chin tucks my whole life it actually caused me damage by straightening my neck in an unnatural way. Thanks for sharing this.

[Darksoulsnoob]

Thank you for making this video, I’ve been at my wits end having tried seeing physios (and yes the chin tucks), resistance band exercises, experimenting with my wfh setup to achieve optimal ergonomics, different desk chairs etc only to find nothing helped, in fact my neck and upper back pain was getting steadily worse over time. I started doing these breathing exercises as instructed 3 days ago and my neck and upper back pain has vanished. I can’t believe it. I’m so happy after being tormented for years. All I needed to do was breathe properly. Sometimes when I do the exercises I feel little satisfying “cracks” and “pops” when I inhale and feel my rib cage and back expanding, it feels so good!

[chloec]

I have a recessed chin and breathing issues (detected sleep apnea). I also have forward head posture... what you are saying makes total sense...and every chiropractor I have seen made me do chin tucks and shoulder strengthening exercises which hurt me even more...
Will be following your channel for more. Thank you

[KerbalOmegaGaming]

I am so greatful for your videos. After seeing a chiropractor for 3 years, the idea that breathing could even be a part of the issue was not talked about. I love the logical approach and treating the body not as individual parts, but as the whole system that it is. Thank you!

[lowbs]

In my personal experience the best thing that had helped my posture was just doing full body strength and conditioning workouts. Not these head tilt movements. If you strengthen your core through full body exercises consistently I think it will do a lot more to set you straight!

[thehardwareguy]

Eye opening! It's funny because over the years I've heard so many people say that the head a neck follow the shoulders. Nobody ever follows up that the shoulders follow the ribs and the ribs follow the hips. Your explanation made it clear that we tend to focus on isolated issues instead of identifying the underlying cause.

[bensanterre]

Chin tucks have never felt like they do anything for my forward head posture. This was really helpful thanks.

[ryuhayabusa]

Mind blown, seriously. All these *just do a chin tuck* YTers some even physios are giving some bad advice. I did the chin tuck and my throat hurts, feels uncomfortable, breathing not smooth etc too many problems and I could never continue. This video is perfect. Gonna be trying this soon. If that works out im subbing to this legend.
