    Dude, you make some of the best vids on CZcams. Nuanced, detailed, and brilliantly explained. You're making my "march through PRI & Bill Hartman stuff" twenty times easier. Actually, my journey has become "PRI / Bill Hartman / Conor Harris stuff." Lol. Thanks a ton for all your great work. You're a tremendous help and making a real difference!

    not enough people realiZe this is actually one of the most important videos you have made although i will add that as a narrow i had to expand anteriorly first because it will limit posterior expansion too

    Very detailed explaination and listening to you and Neal Hallinan talk about these conceps makes me want to become a PRI trainer in the near future. Thank you for showing these concepts and a whole other world that I cant wait to dive in. SO thank you for these videos and definitely one of the best channels!

    Okay, first - where have you been all my life!? - in the most macho way possible.

  • @coachpetrican6493

    Hi, Conor! Love your content and your work. I have some trouble understanding something. In the classic representation of a narrow, we have an inhale axial skeleton, which means that we have more posterior expansion. In this case we dont have a more kyphtic t spine, which is not a decrease of spinal curves ? If we go in the opposite direction, in a wide representation we have an exhale axial skeleton with more posterior compression. In this case we dont have a more "extended" t spine?

    • @conorharris
      @conorharris  Před 2 lety +3

      Great question - kyphosis of the spine does not equal more posterior expansion just because there is more "rounding" there. The position of the scapula relative to the spine as well as what types of compression are on the front/back side, as well as how the pelvis interacts with those structures, is going to determine the degree of posterior expansion available. What you described is a common question people have so thanks for asking it.

    Hi Conor,
    1.) For a narrow ISA with secondary compensations (limited ER), how would you go about getting them to 90 degrees of hip flexion without compensation?
    2.) How do you know when that person is able to get to 90 degrees of hip flexion without compensation?

  • @Rokia2003

    I’m not 100% sure about which exercises I should do first. I had upper and lower cross syndrome and then it turned into sway back. I also have a forward head. Which videos on the blog should I follow?

  • @notsureofhajaj
    @notsureofhajaj Před 7 měsíci

    Hey Connor,
    I'm confused as shouldn't the wide ISA be more biased towards having a pump handle instead of a depressed sternum due to dorsal rostral compression? Also, wouldn't dorsal rostral compression result in a kyphosis reversal instead an increased thoracic spine curve? Thanks and love the video.

  • @Sahil_Lath
    @Sahil_Lath Před 2 lety

    Wide ISA people have more compression on the back of their Rib cage, May I know the reason why so? As per your content wide ISA is exhalation biased means more curves in spine that is more kyphosis & Lordosis; moreover, it's true that more Kyphosis does not mean more expansion of the rib cage. But I wanna know what are the factors that lead to more compression on the back of a wide ISA person which forces them to inhale down into the ribcage and leads to widening of lower ribs and an increase in ISA.

    Which rotation can make longer leg??????EXTERNAL Or INTERNAL???????
    For me, my right hip higher and right leg longer..
    What exercise i do to correct it

  • @annakaminska6371
    @annakaminska6371 Před měsícem

    I understand that people who have wide infrasternal angle, have thoracic kyphosis, lumbar arch, and their femur and tibia rotate in, while people who have narrow infrasternal angle have their femur and tibia rotate out.
    I have got low infrasternal angle of about 45, and my leg bones rotate in, which would suggest a wide infrasternal angle but that is not the case. How would you explain this? How is this possible? I have got femoral anteversion and tibial torsion. I also have rounded shoulders, thoracic kyphosis and forward head posture. Many thanks x

  • @tofolcano4670
    @tofolcano4670 Před rokem +1

    I'm not sure if I have a narrow or wide ISA or neither. What I do know is that I have very pointy rib flares and I thought it may have something to do with this.
    Is there any way we can easily measure the ISA to know for sure if it's too wide or too narrow?

      That’s almost often a primary Narrow ISA

  • @jtbigbear3158
    @jtbigbear3158 Před 2 lety +2

    I laugh because it’s all so true. You explain it so eloquently yet the problems have no simple solution. I find most postural problems are from bad breathing techniques and inadequate bracing of core muscles.
    I wish you were in Houston. My body is so confused from years of sports injuries. I was a college athlete. I have bad dorsiflexion, IR deficit, weak glutes that are hard to work because my hamstrings cramp so easily, and supinated feet.
    Nobody would know because I’m in athletic shape. I went to airrosti and dude was confused on what to do. Nice guy but biggest waste of $500 for physical therapy.

    • @conorharris
      @conorharris  Před 2 lety +2

      That first part of what you said is very true. I can try to simplify it, and much of it can be made simple, but not all of it. The human body is just so complex that we must also respect that as well.
      There are some great pracititioners in Houston I'm sure. Look for people trained in PRI or these kinds of methods.

    So a narrow will have to make more effort to exhale and wide vise versa ??
