Isometric Chin Tuck for cervical stability

 Isometric Chin Tuck and axial elongation for cervical stability.  This should only be done pain free. I suggest starting with 10 seconds and build up to 30 seconds or longer.  Adapted from IPA. Please always consult with your physician or PT first.

Core Stability Exercise ~ "The Cannonball"

This is geared to wake up your deep core for stability and function so that life becomes an ab workout. Great to do every morning or before a workout/sport activity. Adapted from Institute of Physical Art.

Wall Press for Core and Lower Body Efficient Engagement for

Wall Press for Core and Lower Body Efficient Engagement.  This is a prolonged held exercise using PNF principles to engage efficient muscle firing patterns between the lower body and trunk. Great to do before a hike, bike, run, sport activity or any strenuous activity. Adapted from Institute of Physical Art "high step" exercise.

Back Planks for Posture

I call these "Back planks" or The Starfish  Exercise to help improve posture and mid back strength. This is an exercise to help fight gravity and poor postural habits. It is also a way to stretch your pectoral muscles while strengthening at the same time. These should only be done pain free. I suggest starting with 3 seconds in each angle and build up to 5-10 seconds or longer and you can move your feet farther away to increase intensity too. Please always consult with your physician or PT first

Hip/Gluteal Exercise for proper glutE activation in gait

This is a non weight bearing exercise (alternative to bridges and clams) that can help strengthen glutes for proper facilitation of glute activation in gait. The standing version is the wall press.
