Thank you! Wish I watched this before teaching a client prone on long box today. She was getting low back pain, even though pubic bone was down (pelvis neutral), and just doing simple arm extensions in neutral spine. Will have to look at her leg alignment to see if she’s externally rotating
Wonderful Segment! Great explanation and demonstration. Thanks a million!
Hi there! So happy both of you enjoyed the information!
For back pain during this movement try bolstering the torso from public bone to collar bone with a folded yoga blanket to help support the spine further. Also release work on the obliques, QL, and ab wall!
Much Love,
Casey
Thank you! Just tried it in my reformer and your cues were awesome! So I assume we are to think the same way for prone on mat. What about when knees bend ..i.e. Single leg kick, double leg kick…is this different? i assume this is also going to help with thoracic extension…something I personally am not very good at
Hi Jennifer! Yes the ” rules” stay the same when prone on the mat with a bent knee, since the hip is moving towards extension. Also, when playing with thoracic extension, try working with pec and abdominal release work and see if that helps!
Much Love,
Casey Marie
