Corset: Moving Stillness
from Nucleus Strength Hosted by Eric Clothier
I have a client with a fused lower spine. This means that, in terms of exercise, we focus on keeping her spine as still as logical while moving her limbs. Because the spine is fused means that the immobile parts force the parts of her spine that are directly above and below the fused section to compensate/move much more than is desirable/safe over time. We found great success in focusing on helping her feel the front, back, middle, and sides of her torso contract in order to help keep her spine supported. Welcome to Nucleus Strength; a Podcast devoted to Movement, Health, and Well Being. Host Eric Clothier guides you step-by-step through specific movements and exercises to help you Gain Focus, Move Better, and Feel Stronger. Utilizing his background in Dance, Pilates, Yoga, Gyrotonic®, Gyrokinesis®, Personal Training, Yamuna Body Rolling, as well over a decade of Full Time hands on training experience Eric frees you to enjoy a joyful, natural, and effortless means of exercise. Please utilize both the pause button and the speed options during play back for ease and enjoyability. Remember your exercise regimen is your own province. You can choose to control how you respond to the variables presented. Use that confidence to your advantage. -Enjoy!
