Not only were you now activated and stable and feeling stronger, but that muscle was in this inhibitory contracted state and then it let go. One of the things I say in my private practice all the time, my first five years out of school, I was working on the QL. My thumb has got scars from it. I don't touch the QL anymore. 10 years ago, I realized you don't even have to beat someone up so much.

In a weird way, these kinds of exercises are more gentle, they're more therapeutic, and they're more long-term. They're active, so it's long-term. You're tapping into that nervous system. Demoing an exercise or having someone do a very specific exercise based on their profile and their symptoms is actually a great way to make someone feel better, and you just got to give them the right stuff.

I mean, one of the exercises I think we're going to cover in the gym, I have a lot of clients that come in and they're like, look, I'm nervous about the Cairo thing, or they have some fear around it. They heard stories, whatever. They're like, can you help my neck though? Absolutely. Because there's a million other ways to cook this. recipe to where we normalize the motion of your joints.

We make the muscles strong again. We reestablish the relationships of your shoulders and your scapula and your neck. There's a million ways to make someone feel better with exercise where you don't have to do aggressive therapies. I don't care if it's stem cell or PRP or prolo or dry needling or chiro. It doesn't really matter. Exercise needs to always be the answer.

Yeah, it's really common for one. I tend to see that one of the things we want to highlight in this next session is really highlight to people, oh, wow, this doesn't look like a knee exercise, but it could help my knee. This idea of working around a structure that has pain to help that structure feel better. I think that's what we're going to go for.

And I think the regions we selected are just really common, really debilitating. And frankly, generally people whiff on these a lot. We get so many of these cases in our practice that it's like, what were they doing? They didn't do this. They should have done. So we're going to try to go that way.

First off, that bifurcation we talked about earlier, where do we need to consult an orthopedic or neurosurgeon? That's number one. How do you make the decision? the story, the incident, what it looks like. If we're talking knee, if they're a soccer player, they twisted it really weird yesterday, it's all swollen on the joint line, I'm more worried about the joint.

Conversely, if it's a runner where it's been kind of off and on for a long time, no acute incident, no joint line swelling, the pain is kind of vague. Those are two very different presentations. So one's going to be more like ortho consult. One's going to be like, let's tinker around as a rehab pro and see what we can do.
