How about if the person has *‘Excessive Forward Trunk Lean’?*
What corrective exercises should we use in that case?
Please keep making these short ‘quick fix’ videos. They’re helpful and to the point! :)

Just earned my CPT-NASM! First shot. It was very difficult. Remember my name...My goal is on that Master Trainer Cert!! I should get some clients first tho🤣

Do your client's arms fall forward during an overhead squat assessment? This video series covers flexibility and corrective strategies to address this compensation.

[PikesCore]

Is there any evidence that this does any good.?

[postnatalmotcoach]

Is this safe if the scapula isn’t supported well?

[elfunkeado]

I wouldnt recommend the last corrective exercise for a started. They might have problems doing even an assisted squat and that might cause other problems. However, this give us a good idea of what muscles we need to activate and strengthen.

[kristind]

Am I correct that these should be done in this order for maximum results?

[verticaldancer]

In this video you use the Child's Pose for lengthening the lats. If a client is considerably overweight, this pose is difficult to impossible due to what I call, "Ergonomic Issues." What do you recommend as an alternative lengthening method?

my mind is stuck here and I can't read the notes anymore.
1) In all the following cases, TFL and Bicep femoris's short head are considered OVERACTIVE:
  Foot Turns Out,
Knee Moves Inward
Knee Moves Outward
Flatted feet .How come?
2)Also we know that Piriformis  is considered a hip's external rotator, while TFL
is kind of its medial rotator. How is it possible that both of them
become overactive in "Knees move outward" during overhead squat?
I couldn't find any answer by googling them either. If only I find out
what these muscles (first and second pairs) have in common, I would get
it. Thanks!

When using a green screen, don't have anything around or wear anything green. ;)
