😱 If your lower ribs jut forward, here's the cure 😱
If your ribs stick out or you have a deep arch in your lower back, you MUST check this post out.
Because your ribs looking this way…is NOT structural.
Instead, there is a movement strategy going on in your body that may contribute to the lower ribs appearing prominent, impacting your ability to contract your abs and move well.
Below, you’ll learn why rib flares exist and what to do about it.
Watch the video and read the post below to learn more!
We go over:
1. The biomechanics behind rib flares
2. How you can utilize breathing to either make the rib flare better or worse
3. The BEST positions to improve rib flares
4. And more

After 30 years i've discovered that not even breathing is something that I do correctly

Getting the name is always the first step in fixing a problem, I didn't expect this was something that could be fixed, I'm definitely going to try some of these exercises after researching the subject.

Finally I know now why after training back, the next day I feel in such extension and constantly have to do the cat stretch to feel normal again.. Iv watched over 200 videos on postural correction and never heard this

I’m 15 and extremely self conscious of my rib flare. Pretty sure it’s from exercising incorrectly and sucking in my stomach too much. It makes my ribs look like the biggest part of my torso and it makes me feel uncomfortable. I just found this video and it’s already helped me in realizing I can fix it so thank you :)

The fact that you respond to every comment shows how much you care about us. Heartwarming

Thank you I am 70 years old, in the last 4 I have noticed increasing rib flare, I did not wonder why, I just thought it was a natural aging thing. Knowing why and what to do about it is emancipating!

It's amazing how proper breathing mechanics reset my posture! Thanks 🙏💪

There are a lot of videos out there addressing rib flare and getting to the why of it. You, by far, have provided THE BEST and most detailed outline of how to fix this issue in a way that is concise and easy to execute! As a body worker who has some rib flare and belly pooch that I have been battling forever (root cause is from childhood trauma that altered my breathing...been stuck in shallow "fight or flight" breathing patterns my entire life) and clients who struggle with this as well, I THANK YOU for this! Obviously, I also have other postural patterns that affect how my body is stacked (i.e. anteriorly shifted pelvis, posteriorly tilted ribcage) which also affects how well I breathe. I would love to see a video and "your take" on the whole body structure and how each segment counterbalances each other to keep us upright and aligned (hence why I am a big fan of Tom Meyers and Anatomy Trains). Fascia plays a huge role in keeping us "stuck" in these patterns. I guess I worry that people will isolate their "problem" areas and think that this one thing will fix all of their problems.

When I was with the dance company in college, we had a kinesiologist on staff. She gave me a similar exercise to correct the forward thrust of my lower back. Needless to say, having my center of gravity along a more concentrated axis made it easier to execute dance movements. Because my developmental years were spent at high altitude I developed a lung capacity of 120% of normal. I developed a habit of breathing shallowly after moving to at or about sea level. This also required conscious correction. It is great to see all these techniques pulled together. The Nickolai system of dance exercises utilize inhaling on expanding movements and exhaling on contracting movements.

Found this channel 3 hours back, been watching and learning about my body, greatly informative content.

I’m seeing a PRI practitioner…I’m appreciating your videos as I think they are helping me perform the moves he gives me! Thank you! Iv been seeing him about 4 months, twice a month . No pain gone as of yet. I told him I would be a difficult case as Iv been dealing with this pain for 6 years and too many other practitioners to list!

This was so nice. No judgement, your tone was so comforting! Thank you for explaining it so easily. I know why my ribs are sticking out and how to solve it now. Thank you so much

Randomly got this video recommended by YouTube. Didn't even know this was considered an issue. Guess our overlords at google know my problems better than I know myself.

I had a hard time doing the breathing on hands and knees. For some reason the inhale felt short and exhale also. But then I remembered the foot pressure that you mentioned. It made all the difference for some reason. Inhale was a little easier and exhale more complete. This is the reason why i keep coming back to the same videos to watch them again because these are the small things that might be forgotten at some point when doing the same thing over and over again. Thank you from Finland!

Big Z, been battling with this for years and drinking the Kool Aid on forcing the ribs down. This video has been a game changer for me -- and I been watching your stuff for a while.

Actually needed this. Literally just started trying to find ways to stop my lower back arching inward giving me lower back pain. Also didn't know flared ribs could be corrected
41 |
Posture , breathing , and exercises are all definitely things I've needed improvement on
18 |
Your channel looks great! Glad the algo suggested you. I didn't more than 6 months this year recovering from various back injuries. Have done a ton of chiro and yoga since and am mostly back in shape. Never want to go through that again and learning everything I can to protect my body
