I'd be careful making blanket statements, especially when they contradict your older videos. You r video on stretching and strengthening the psoas has helped me tremendously. The stretching in particular alleviated a lot of low back pain and leg pain and numbness/tingling. This might be a better fit for more people, but don't throw out your old tools just yet!

I tried this and it worked. I did one set of 10 reps on day 1 and felt relief from pain throughout the day and on day 2 I did another set of 10 reps in the morning and had more relief throughout the day and then 2 sets of 10 reps in the evening and while laying down I could turn from side to side easily without pain. I got up from laying down, pain free. I did 2 more sets of 10 reps this morning and walking around pain free. Thank you.

Thank you so much for this video. That was the best explanation I’ve ever heard. I’ve been doing squats and should be doing Hip thrust. Your videos should be shared more.

Great advice on this! I’ll be implementing the glute strength exercises. I’m a former long driver (400+ yard golf drives) and been battling my back hard the last 2 years now. Started off one day with some sharp stomach pain that radiates right the back, week later was rotating sciatica and some numbness through the left calf and left foot mainly. I presume it’s linked to my spine being curved from side lateral bending in golf for years and years. Just about to watch your Psoas video too as I think that could be helpful to me.

Really informative - I am 15 months out from a S1 nerve compression. It has improved with pilates, but I am a long way from pain-free, still nerve twinges. I assume the hip thrusts supercede the deadbug, band march and bridges? Is there anything else I can add to regain sensation in my outer foot? Excited about adding this to my session tomorrow. Especially working up to 1.5x body weight. Thank you

Hey Aidan- I actually also had an S1 compression as well. My calf and side of my foot was continually tingling for quite some time afterwards. I eventually fixed it my working on my fibularis muscle. The peroneal nerve can get trapped on the outside of the calf just below the knee. Take a peek at that and let me know if you have some more questions!

Is there an alternative exercise if we don’t have the bar and plates?

I sit around 9 hours a day, been doing it for 28 years straight but now at 40 my body just won't have it. Since 3 months I've been doing 30 floors up and down daily and my butt is a better sitter, stairs are ok as a second option?

I have seen a few videos on Anterior Pelvic Tilt, which seems to be what I have and I have done those exercises with only temporary success. Advice from Physiotherapist was to do Yoga which also gave temporary relief. I found squatting works to relieve immediate pain, so I gave this a go and guess what? I have done 2 x 10 reps each day since last week and am sitting without pain for the first time in years. I am hoping that continued work on this will mean it doesn't return. For weights I have a 14kg kettlebell which seems to work quite well. Do you have any recommendations otherwise?

Thank you for the instruction and how to perform the exercise - Question: Can the Hip Thrust be done on a large ball (the ball being secured on a step riser)?I teach a Strength and Core class and I am always looking for the correct method for my participants, who have a lot of issues with back and hip flexors. Looking forward hearing from you. Thanks

Sorry for the delayed reply. We actually thought about this exact same issue. Squat racks are hard to find in peoples home and incorporate into group fitness. A ball is too unstable for most people IMO. We had a few tumbles while testing this. We found a good solution: a variant of a Swiss ball called a “peanut” (side note, I consider a “peanut” tool to be two balls duct taped together, so I find the nomenclature a bit confusing). These allow the clients spine to rest in the central groove between the two lobes, supporting the torso from the sides. Found them on Amazon for $20 or so, and had clients take them home to practice hip thrusting with minimal equipment. Bonus; they can be deflated for storage. Performing a hip thrust with a bar is possible but kind of awkward as the plates bonk the ball, so Id use a band across the thigh with a kettlebell. Works just fine. Burns in the deep glute area you’d get while using a bar in a rack. Cheers!

When doing exercises make sure they are being done properly with correct form. For hip thrusting the American variant of the hip thrust is what we teach and train in our office. For other exercises check out our page for exercises we teach and if you have any more questions feel free to leave more comments. Also some release work to warm up before exercise should be done, like Glute Medius rolling and couch stretch (done properly)

Excellent video, but doesn't some of this contradict the information presented in your "Is A Tight Psoas Muscle Causing Your Low Back or Hip Pain?" video?

@thales0106 2 жыл бұрын

I was thinking the same thing.

@StraightUpSpineandPosture 2 жыл бұрын

Indeed it does. The psoas video is actually 2 years old and somewhat dated compared to our current approach which favors glute work, specifically strengthening as the main focus. Clinically, I am generally dissatisfied with a stretching-only approach. The popularity of the psoas stretching video shows where people's interest are. We have also become much more pro-flexion (lumbar spine) in non-loaded environments. I am actually happy that someone picked up on that, so kudos for being perceptive. I wish this video was the popular one on youtube, the hip thrust with some light anterior hip stretching is really a winning combo. It's unfortunate that most people simply stretch and call it a day.

Most back pain is multifactorial (see biopsychosocial approach) and in most cases, cannot be framed solely as a bio-mechanical issue. Additionally, using language like "it's not rocket science that your low back muscles will become too strong to the point where they will literally crush your low back" is simply not true and can create unnecessary fear in people already suffering from LBP. I will always support exercise as an intervention for LBP, but we have to acknowledge that exercise even has limitations when it comes to improving pain. Pain is complex, especially low back pain. I suggest you and your followers take a look at clinicians like Aaron Kubal and Adam Meakins on social media for a deep look into some of these topics. They can be a little brash at times, but the thoughts and research they present are as objective as it gets in our field.
