Thanks @moveu_official for your video on #ITBand Pain.  It’s a little reminder to everyone to see their movevement professional if they are experiencing knee pain.

Fun Tip!  Did you know there is no actual IT Band?  Nope it’s just a region of tissue on the outside of the knee.  -@workoutwithpaul

Many of you experience IT band pain and have no idea why! You often just foam roll and beat it up!  Your IT band pain all comes down to pelvic position, glute activation, and and core engagement. When the pelvis falls into anterior tilt, the glutes and abs are essentially off. When the glute max is off, the IT band no longer gets the support it needs from your back side. The TFL muscle drawn on the side of my hip will have to take over if the glute is not activating properly. See the line of drive from the TFL muscle? As it tightens, it can actually buckle the knee inward and cause knee alignment issues!⁣⁣The goal of this video is to provide you with some quick relief for your IT band, knee pain, and some “referral” pain that you have down the side of the leg. Instead of just foam rolling the IT band, attack the TFL muscle on the outside of the hip! Stretch the hip with a little side bend and drive the hip to the side as far as you can. Hold onto something if you need to. Keep your body very square.⁣⁣The long-term solution to this pain is to align the feet, pelvis, torso, and shoulders and learn to activate the glutes and abs during exercise. After strengthening them through exercise, those inactive muscles will become more active on their own! Tension will be taken off of the IT band when the glute max becomes more active. Refer to the plethora of videos that we have done to help you align and activate the body.⁣⁣Badass art by @ashleykayart 😍⁣, 💻Written by Andrew Dettelbach @MoveUShirtlessDude⁣

So your gym doesn’t have a fancy leg extension machine... this guy’s gym doesn’t even have walls.  You don’t need fancy equipment and machines to get strong.  You just need the right equipment and quality coaching.

Thanks @thebarbellphysio for sharing this great post

We are big fans for the Overhead Marches too.  @workoutwithpaul

OVERHEAD MARCHES [originalpostdate].- These are an incredibly challenging midline stability drill. Focus on staying tall with each step and not letting pelvis drop or shift to the side as you march.

“Here I am doing a box rock, working through my shoulder extension. Though I am very mobile I am working to build stability and strength in the end range, for training both a more stable straight handstand and for more advanced variations of hollowbacks. This exercise is awesome for finding your range and you can take it to the wall to begin building strength. 😍 Love and handstands y’all!” 🧚🏻‍♀️-Ryan Schmidt
