Anterior Pelvic Orientation, Breathing During Squats and Deadlifts, and Handstands - Movement Debrief Episode 108
Movement Debrief Episode 108 is in the books. Here is a copy of the video for your viewing pleasure. Here is the setlist: What is anterior pelvic orientation/tilt? How does this happen with different infrasternal angle presentation? When do I coach breathing sequences within a lift like the squat and deadlift? How does the breathing sequence differ if I am coaching a squat/deadlift for movement options versus max effort? What could a squat be useful at improving movement-wise? How about a hinge? What are the benefits of handstands? How can headstand and handstand variations be used to improve movement options? If you want to watch these live, add me on Instagram.

Unfortunately, I couldn't find that bit I wanted and was hoping you could help me out with a link so I can pass on your great work you continue to do Breathing During Squats and Deadlifts When do you prescribe inhale-pause-exhale during squats and deadlifts? Handstands Hey Zac - if u fancy something different for a debrief - how about talking about the benefits of Handstand Practise [ie against a wall for most people] for posture, breathing, muscle balance etc. Sum Up Wide infrasternal angles have extension within the pelvis due to sacral nutation from an exhaled axial skeleton Narrow infrasternal angles have extension above the pelvis due to increased anteroposterior ventral cavity dimensions Early-phase squatting and deadlifting should focus on setting the stack and then teaching the movement If going after specific limitations, inhale into the limitations Valsalva maneuvers are useful for max effort lifts Handstands are a great terminal exercise to improve upper thorax anteroposterior compression; with headstands being the intermediary Image by Maurice Müller from Pixabay
