Ever wondered why you struggle with front or back squats? 🏋️♂️ It might not just be about strength or technique. 👀 Recently, I explored this topic on my Instagram stories. The culprit? The pectoralis minor, a tiny but mighty muscle beneath the larger pec major. 🤓 Its tightness can hinder your ability to achieve proper form in squats, affecting both your shoulder mobility and thoracic spine extension. Understanding your body's mechanics is key to overcoming barriers in your fitness journey.💪 Let's dive deeper into the science of squats! Which do you prefer? 💡 #foryou,#viral,#trending #FitnessInsights #SquatSmart #BiomechanicsEducation #ShoulderMobility #ThoracicExtension #FitnessJourney #SquatForm #PectoralisMinor #BodyMechanics #FitnessScience

If you want to increase the work of the quadriceps muscle in the extension muscle It is preferable to leave the hip flexion less than 90 ✅At 40 hip flexion By letting the patient rest Laura at a 40 degree angle between his back and the chair 💯Because this has a strong advantage for the quadriceps muscle, specifically the rectus femoris muscle, and the proximal and distal work on it more than The hip flexion 90 works on the vastus lateralis muscle more than the rectus femoris muscle. ✅It leaves the hamstrings not stretched This would make the quartet's tactics better Imagine a simple trick like this, how could you put the exercise in bigger advantage? #physical_therapy #exercise_pt #theraputic_exercise

What Is FLEXIBILITY? It is the ability of the soft tissues (muscles, tendons, ligaments and fascia) to lengthen passively through full range of motion. It depends on two properties of muscles: 1. Extensibility: Ability to extend or stretch. 2. Elasticity: Ability to return to original length from a stretched position. Benefits Of Stretching:- • Improvement in range of motion. • Helps maintain normal posture. • Decreased risk of injuries. #flexibility #stretchingexercises #muscles #benefits #personaltrainer #homeworkout #likesforlike #followforfollowback #fitnessbykrishh

Achilles Clicking: Part 2 In this video, led by Certified Muscle System Specialist Mike Robles in Tampa Bay, Florida, we observe a comprehensive series of configuration tests aimed at identifying the main problem of his Achilles clicking symptoms. Initially focusing on the foot, these tests progress to examine broader aspects of his biomechanics, including how his shoulders, neck, and overall muscle system interact during running. This holistic approach highlights the collaborative function of various subsystems within the muscle system, illustrating how they work together to manage movement challenges effectively. The video underscores the complexity of the muscle system, demonstrating its ability to adapt and troubleshoot issues encountered during physical activity. However, symptoms like Achilles clicking indicate disruptions within this integrated system. These disruptions require a meticulous evaluation tailored to each individual's unique physiological characteristics. Certified Muscle System Specialists like Mike Robles excel in creating personalized assessments and interventions that optimize performance and alleviate discomfort, focusing on restoring optimal functionality and enhancing overall well-being. #achilles #anklepain #plantarfasciitis #exercise #running #runner #tampa

Maximize Your Bicep Curls by Understanding the Biomechanics! Getting the most out of your bicep curls isn’t just about lifting heavy. It’s about understanding the biomechanics that drive the movement. By mastering elbow flexion, supination, and shoulder flexion, you can unlock significant muscle growth and reduce the risk of injury. Key Components: • Elbow flexion: Essential for every curl. • Supination: Rotate the radial ulnar joint for full muscle engagement. • Shoulder flexion: Incorporate a slight lift to complete the movement. Ensure your shoulder blades are retracted and your core is engaged to make every rep effective. Check out my full video on common bicep curl mistakes here: https://lnkd.in/gif678qM #ActiveWave #FitnessTech #StayActive #MyFitnessJourney #FitnessCommunity #FitJourney #PerformanceEnhancement #Health #Mood #BicepCurl #BestExercises #FitnessJourney #MuscleGrowth #StrengthTraining #ExerciseScience #WorkoutSmart #FitnessTransformation #GymKnowledge #HealthyLifting #BicepWorkouts #TrainingTips #FunctionalFitness #CorrectForm #MuscleBuilding #FitnessInspiration #HealthyWorkouts #FormCorrection #GymForm #LiftingTechniques
