7 Exercises You Should Do Absolutely Every Day by Physical Therapists Bob & Brad
Video excerpt:
We're talking about the seven exercises you should do absolutely every day.
These are seven exercises I do throughout pretty much every day, some of them I don't do every day. The vast majority of them I do, and they're easy to do because you can incorporate them into your day.
You don't need to say now at 10 o'clock, I'm going to do seven exercises. A lot of these are ones that you should be doing throughout the day, right, you can do while you work or while you drive.
This is a very common one that everybody is having trouble with. I just saw some research this morning that showed that they're studying the necks of and doing x-rays of, the necks of young people, teenagers and young adults.
And they're finding out they have deterioration in their neck that's equivalent to someone that's like 20 years older and that's been doing a job like this, and it's from the head forward posture.
This stresses the neck and the joints, the disc in the neck, terribly, could be with them on the laptop or an iPad, or on their phone coming forward like this, or they're just sitting like this.
And for every inch that your head is forward, there's ten more pounds of stress on the neck. So, he's quite a few inches over here, so here's 40, 50 pounds more stress on the neck, so throughout the day you're going to want to be doing chin tucks.
You're not going up like this or you're not going down like this. You're backing your neck up, backing the ears up, basically like someone threw a pie at you. Get that chin into the head. Or, someone very undesirable is trying to kiss you. How many times have we seen that Brad? In our life? It happens.
So you know what you can do is, do a bunch of these, and what's nice about these, you can do them everywhere. You can do them in your car, you can do them at the computer, you can do at your workstation. And, If you wanted to add a little bit, you can actually give a little extra stretch and use your fingers, or you can take this part of your hand and just go in there and push like this.
Anyways, this is one I do when I'm driving because I check myself out, make sure my head isn't getting too close to the steering wheel, and I'll do that chin tuck and you get some weird looks when you stop at the stoplight. Some people are wondering, what is he doing, but anyways, they don't know who you are.
