Get Started With Muscle Activation Techniques® To Keep Your Muscles Strong & Functioning Well: https://www.matschaumburg.com Do your shoulders round forward? It is often said that forward shoulders are a result of weakness in a specific muscle group called the rhomboids, but that's actually not true. While the rhomboids can help to pull your shoulders back, it is extremely unlikely that them being weak will cause your shoulders to round forward. So unlikely in fact, that we have never seen that to be the case in over 14 years of working with people who have forward shoulders. However, we have consistently seen a number of other issues be huge contributors to forward shoulders. On this week's episode of the Exercise Is Health® podcast, we are diving into what these other issues are and what you can do about them. If you have been trying to get your shoulders to pull back and your posture to improve by strengthening your rhomboids, listen up! There are a number of potential reasons why this approach may not be getting you the results you want. Check out all the details in this week's episode!

If your hands have been feeling like they are getting weaker but you aren't sure how to change that, listen up! The plan we lay out can guide you through exactly what you need to do.

Get Started With Muscle Activation Techniques® To Keep Your Muscles Strong & Functioning Well: http://vagaro.com/muscleactivationschaumburg/services Have you been told you have a tight psoas? Maybe you've been to some type of therapist who told you you have a tight psoas. Or maybe you have done some internet searches and landed on a tight psoas as the self-diagnosed cause of your issues. While your psoas may feel tight, the truth is that it actually isn't the thing that is causing your symptoms, whether they be in your back, hips, knees, or elsewhere. So what is the real issue if a tight psoas isn't to blame? On this week's episode of the Exercise Is Health® podcast, that is exactly what we are exploring.
