Thanks, Brandon! I don’t think they would be live. I would record them separately and then upload them.

I was thinking more that I would record them and then post them. Probably not live since that gets more complicated from a technology standpoint.

Cindy M Weyenberg Ok, new workouts coming soon! Thanks again, Cindy!

Thanks for the feedback, Cindy! I think follow along workouts for preventing injuries and maintaining strength and mobility could be nice to add to the membership, so that people have something to continue with when their rehab is done.

Hi Nina, I responded to your message. Besides the YouTube video I sent you, many of the exercises in my spondylolisthesis program here in the app would be best following your surgery as most of them avoid rotation and lifting and focus on spinal stability. Here is a link for the program. Just skip the ones that involve rotation and lifting until your surgeon clears you for those movements.

Hi Michael, for pain in that area, I would recommend implementing the upper trapezius and levator mobilization techniques below. After these, I would also implement the rotator cuff exercise below. The supraspinatus muscle, which is a rotator cuff muscle located underneath upper trapezius often creates pain with bench press and lifting weight away from the body.

Brandon Parker Gotcha. Based on the movement and location you are describing, I'm thinking the pain is probably coming from the upper attachment of your gastrocnemius muscles (one of the calf muscles). This muscle is active when stepping back as it helps control the ankle joint during that movement. I would recommend implementing the calf mobilization and stretch below for the next week or two and then continue with the other exercises in the calf and achilles program below.

Mike While the cartilage behind the kneecap can breakdown, like in other joints, it isn’t something we worry too much about. Most cases of patellar arthritis (cartilage breakdown) get better with rehab exercises and behavior modification (managing running volume, changing cadence, shoe wear, etc) and don’t require serious intervention. Also, patellar tracking issues aren’t as big of a deal as we once thought. Tons of people have abnormal tracking and don’t end up with dysfunctional knees. Hope this all makes sense!

Timothy Ratchford Sure thing! Thank you for buying my book! If any questions come up while you are rehabbing your knee pain, please feel free to message me here in the app. You might also find my YouTube video below to be helpful.

Hi Alina, I'm sorry to hear about the rotator cuff tear. Neck tension with shoulder injuries is quite common since many of the shoulder muscles attach to the neck. I would recommend starting with the phase 1 exercises in the rotator cuff program here in the app. Here is a link:
