Overview
A few of the primary goals we should all include in our exercise programs are to prevent injury and reduce or eliminate pain. This comes before any goal of weight loss, muscle building or performance enhancement. If you get hurt, none of these other goals matter because you won’t be able to continue to train.
That’s why we focus on corrective exercise. This is a term used to describe the process of identifying musculoskeletal or neurologic dysfunctions, creating a plan of action to address the concerns, then implementing a corrective strategy of mobility and strength exercises to correct for them.
What is functional movement?
In a word, movement. Functional integrated training attempts to adapt or develop exercises which allow individuals to perform the activities of daily life more easily and without injuries. Once this can be accomplished, additional resistance is added through weights or exercise tubing to develop strength, speed, or agility.

Split Stance Thoracic Rotation
Exercise Name: Kneeling Split Stance Thoracic Internal Rotation with Exercise Band
Equipment Needed: Exercise band
Muscles Targeted: Emphasis on the muscles of the anterior oblique sling system, particularly the thoracic spine rotators and stabilizers.
Exercise Description:
1. Begin by securing one end of the exercise band to a stable anchor point at waist height or slightly above.
2. Kneel on the ground facing away from the anchor point with one knee on the floor and the other knee bent at a 90-degree angle in front of you, creating a split stance.
3. Grasp the other end of the exercise band with the hand on the same side as the knee that is on the floor.
4. Keep your core engaged and maintain a neutral spine position throughout the exercise.
5. Start with your arm extended straight out in front of you at shoulder height, parallel to the floor, with your palm facing inward.
6. Initiate the movement by rotating your thoracic spine towards the side of the kneeling knee, allowing your arm to follow the rotation.
7. Continue rotating until you feel a stretch or mild tension in your thoracic spine and chest muscles.
8. Hold the end position for a brief moment, focusing on the stretch and contraction in the targeted muscles.
9. Slowly return to the starting position by rotating your thoracic spine back to the neutral position, controlling the movement with your muscles rather than letting the band pull you back.
10. Repeat for the desired number of repetitions, then switch sides and perform the exercise with the opposite arm and knee.
Key Points:
- Maintain proper alignment and posture throughout the exercise, avoiding excessive arching or rounding of the spine.
- Focus on smooth and controlled movements, emphasizing the rotation of the thoracic spine.
- Keep your shoulders relaxed and away from your ears to prevent unnecessary tension.
- Adjust the tension of the exercise band as needed to ensure that it provides enough resistance to challenge your muscles without compromising form.
- Perform the exercise in a slow and deliberate manner to maximize its effectiveness and minimize the risk of injury.

You have no idea how much I appreciate you for posting this video. I’ve had neck pain for 6 months and this really helped.
This is brilliant. Not sure it's ok to ask this, bu would you care to share exercise versions for those who can't be in an standing position due the Taylors bunion pain? 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Thank you so much for the great total explanation and demonstration. I have lots of work to do as mine lot like elbows on a foot. Very much appreciated. God bless
Could these exercises help after a leg has been left 1.5cm longer after hip reolacement surgery? My back is killing me and the heel raiser is so uncomfortable.
Nobody else has explained like you have why the pain seems to come when I’m switching from the load being behind my center of gravity to forward of my center of gravity. Not one doctor. Not one physical therapist. No one among the several people I’ve consulted has even heard of anterior femoral glide syndrome. I think this explains it pretty well. It might help to know a little more about what’s normal versus what’s abnormal clearly stated in your delivery.
Hi @Dino0228 Thank you for reaching out and for your kind words. I'm glad to hear that our explanations have been helpful. Anterior Femoral Glide occurs when the head of the femur (thigh bone) moves excessively forward in the hip socket during movements. This often results in pain and instability, especially noticeable when shifting the load from behind your center of gravity to in front. Understanding AFGS: Normal vs. Abnormal Movement: - Normal Movement: The femur glides smoothly in the hip socket during flexion and extension. - Abnormal Movement: The femur head moves forward excessively, causing discomfort. Screening for AFG with Thomas and Ober's Tests: 1. Thomas Test: - Purpose: Assesses hip flexor tightness. - Process: Lie on your back on a table. Pull one knee to your chest while the other leg hangs off the table. If the hanging leg lifts off the table or the back arches, it indicates tight hip flexors. - Relevance to AFG: Tight hip flexors can pull the femur forward, contributing to AFG. 2. Ober's Test: - Purpose: Assess tightness in the iliotibial (IT) band and tensor fasciae latae (TFL). - Process: Lie on your side with the lower leg bent for stability. The examiner lifts and extends the upper leg and then allows it to drop behind you. If the leg doesn't drop, it indicates tight IT band/TFL. - Relevance to AFG: Tight IT band/TFL can affect hip alignment, potentially exacerbating AFGS. Virtual Movement Screens: We offer virtual movement screens to establish your baseline functional capacity. This allows us to assess your movement patterns and identify any contributing factors to your AFG. From there, we can help you establish timelines and exercise protocols to restore the stability and function of your hip joint. How We Can Help: Check out fluidhealthandftness.com and schedule a discovery call - fluidhealthandfitness.com/ or call 844 358 4343. - Baseline Assessment: Our virtual movement screens provide a detailed analysis of your functional capacity. - Customized Protocols: Based on your assessment, we create personalized exercise protocols to address hypermobility and strengthen the hip joint. - Progress Tracking: Regular follow-ups to adjust your program as needed and ensure optimal recovery. If you're interested, please let us know, and we can schedule a virtual assessment at your convenience. Thank you again for your support, and I look forward to helping you. Best regards, Fluid Health and Fitness Team

So helpful! All of these felt great and make loads of sense!
Sorry dude too technical

This was the best fucking video I have found and helped me so much from tears into being able to stand and fix my walking because I would stand with APT and have under active glutes too
Thanks a lot!!! I have strugled with hi for several years and I have tried several things. These exercises helped me finally. Many thanks, grateful for your insights.
Thank you for sharing your experience! We're thrilled to hear that the exercises were helpful for you. If you ever need further assistance or have any questions, please don't hesitate to reach out to us. We're here to help!
Such a scientific explanation that's not needed for such a simple procedure
Understanding the details around the cervical spine is crucial because it's a delicate area that houses the spinal cord and supports the weight of the head. Any exercise involving neck extension should be approached with caution to avoid potential injury, making specificity in technique important for safety and effectiveness.
Good to see you Ryan! Great stuff. Your pal, Em.
My man! Good to hear from you! Call me when you get the chance.
That was not good. You spent all that time talking and let him do one rep? Why not do the 20 reps?
Everything you said it’s so true! I’ve been dealing with a knee injury since last year around June … after 2 MRIs I feel like everyone just tells me that I’ll just have to live with chronic pain.. Where are you guys located?
Hi. We are located in Stillwater, MN. We also offer virtual consultations. In fact, we just launched a new 2D motion capture assessment for virtual screenings. If you'd like more information, someone could call you if you'd like.
Good trainers are equipped with great care and knowledge...
today i tried psoas eccentric with kettlebell and even tho i felt big cracking in my hip like a tendon over the bone after few sets of those i tried squatting and first time for so long i felt 0 pain!!! like my hips are unlocked. I worry though because before anytime i tried hip extension it cause that exact pain in front of my hip like the femoral head goes too much forward but how can i extend my hip without femoral glide???

My lateral hip pain only seems to happen once flexion is happening
Which hemisphere?
@@FluidHealthandFitness what does that mean exactly lol
@MattStorstad , which side of the body are you dealing with the issue?
@@FluidHealthandFitness my left
@MattStorstad ok, that's usually associated with left hip instability. Would you be interested in completing a movement screen online? We can see what's going on. The cost is $99. If so, use this link to setup a discovery call session - fluidhealthandfitness.com/request-an-appointment/
Love this! After doing this my ROM at the hip increased, specifically my IR. Thank you!
It's our pleasure. Let us know if we can assist with anything else. Feel free to join our Facebook group at facebook.com/groups/fluidbiomechanics/?ref=share.
Do you have a video of a one sided situation? Thank you for this information!

Then we'd be able to point you in the right direction. If so, please use this link to setup an appointment - fluidhealthandfitness.com/request-an-appointment/
@@FluidHealthandFitness Are you guys in Florida?
@@FluidHealthandFitness I can share with you this everything on my right side feels likes its stuck in internal rotation and my left side feels inhibited and externally rotated due to the mal alignment.
@@FluidHealthandFitness I used to teach belly dancing and I was right side dominant and I also had a left ankle injury that I'm not sure healed properly... So I don't know if it's a combo or just the one.
You can see your subscriber is good but your views is very low i can do better for you and take your SEO score above 90%
This is gold. Thank you
Hey Fluid Health and Fitness Really nice video. Btw I was wondering if i could help you edit your videos and also make highly engaging shorts out of them. Or whole UA-cam management ?
1:44 wow so cool & interesting, thank you
GOD BLESS YOUR SOUL !!!!
Best explanation ever
good stuff, thanks
Why do I feel and hear crackles like rice crispies when I do this? 😅
Everybody gansta not until that band hit your face
Nice
Excellent. subscribed your channel and would watch your videos now ✌
Use the stretching excersices for the side that has all your weight distribution, one because that’s your side of body that is being used typically your higher hip… strengthen the weaker leg stretch the over used and over active leg
good video BUT please get rid of the music... very distracting when im trying to listen and learn
Holy crap very difficult to do
This is such a life-saving video for me!!! I really appreciate it. LOVE from KOREA
Nice explanation as always! Could you make a video about scapular upward rotation deficiency? I'm really jammed up in my right scapula. I can't even do like 10 quality reps in the incline Y raise using only my arms as resistance. Also, my right lat is very unbalanced compared to my left and whenever i do a row movement my right scapula snapps and my rear delt/teres major seem to be doing most of the shoulder extension. My right shoulder external rotation is also extremely weak.
Hi Tom. Thanks for your question. Would you be interested in having a movement screen so we can give you global, regional, and local considerations? It sounds like you've got a Lateralization issue. Better to check than guess if possible.
