Yeah. Literally, women, just like we did for your shoulder, if you find out you're pregnant, you should start doing some foot strengthening things, some core stability stuff. There's a ton of things you could do. Prehab, Then after, obviously, God willing, see how it goes and get the baby good, but then you start trying to strengthen the right way.

Oh, yeah. One of my favorite orthopedic surgeons in town, he called me and he's a hip ortho, great guy. And he's like, hey, you got to help me out here. My wife has the same issue. And she's been doing traditional PT for like eight months and it's no better. And she's about to fire me. She's like, what are you doing? But it's a very common thing. And that's what's been really cool for me to see.

These pelvic floor specialists that are arising, it's really cool field, ton of expertise with it. I am not an expert in pelvic floor by any means, but you touched on the pelvic floor is very much a big player in how we pressurize our intra-abdominal stability. It's basically the flooring of that whole canister that we're supposed to create with proximal stability.

And so if the diaphragm or the pelvic floor isn't doing its job, then our body's going to immediately start to compensate and create rotations and tilts around things.

I think that's the starting point that I wish everyone could automatically understand is that if you have a really prominent rectus abdominis, that six pack, that has nothing to do with how you stabilize your trunk. especially if I'm doing things in multi-planes like tilting and rotating.

So it's not just your obliques either, but it's the deep stabilization system that not only pressurizes with our diaphragm, the pelvic floor, but it's also all the small muscles up and down my spine, including like multifidi. Do all those muscles kick on and create stiffness in the right way at the right time?

I think a lot of times people are accidentally overcoached into thinking they only need stiffness because the second step to that is, okay, now I can activate that deep stabilization system. I have that bracing. I'm pressurized. I'm using my transverse abdominus, all these other structures down there. Now, can I do that with motion?

And that's where you start looking at someone kicking or running or throwing. That needs to be a dynamic system, not just a stiff system. And I think a lot of people, they don't have the first one. So they see a ton of these exercises like the DNS three month or dead bugs or whatever else we want to call them that create deep core stabilization.

But they don't see the next step after that, which is, okay, now how do I maintain that pillar and that strength? And then I get a free shoulder blade or a free hip to move. And one of our shared clients, he had a lot of radicular nerve pain from a disc issue. And he was convinced he had some of that.

But one of the most fascinating cases for me in recent memory, because with him, we were able to actually find a trigger point that referred pain that mimicked that radicular nerve pain. So when we literally pressed on his glute minimus, he got a referral that he thought was a tribute to his back. So that was a window towards, okay, that's a muscular issue. That's not your spine causing trouble.
