Is “bad posture” a thing?

Or is it simply your body trying to find a way to manage internal dynamics so that you don’t fall over?

3 Things You Can Try On Leg Day to Help Take Pressure Off Your Lower Back

Move Weight in Front:
- keeping weight in front of the body forces the COM backwards which gives you more space to descend into a squat
- remember to reach keep the weight close but reach the elbows forward to get into a better position

Perform Unweighting Exercises:
- exercises like TRX squats, band assisted squats, and chops can help to slow down the rate at which you push into the ground. This can help to elongate the lower back and take pressure off

Add Mobility Exercises:
- when performing a symmetrical activity like a back squat you need to produce a lot of pressure within the body
- an increase in pressure takes away relative motion and makes things more stiff so you can lift heavy
- adding in exercises that help to regain relative motion can help reduce pressure between sets

Orientation vs. True Layback

There is no good or bad when talking about performance. You can still throw a baseball ridiculously hard with an orientation.

But when looking at efficiency…creating orientation is costly to the system due to concentric muscle activity. Connective tissues are much better at creating velocity and whip.

Thanks to and for inspiring a cool little mobilization to gain a little bit more “true layback”.

If you’re struggling with movement or pain or simply have questions feel free to reach out.

In the words of LeBron James…”I’m taking my talents to the Midwest”

Yesterday, and I signed the documents to purchase our first house in Kansas City. On Wednesday, we make a cross country trek away from sunshine into snow to start a new adventure in Kansas City. We are both very excited for the future and this opportunity!

In the middle of January, I will start working with to grow something truly special.

If you’re in the KC area check it out and book an appointment when they become available 🤟🏼

IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT ‼️

After thoughtful consideration with my wife over the last year, we have made the difficult decision to move to Kansas City, Missouri, at the beginning of 2024. I have accepted a job there, and my wife, Kailee, will be pursuing her law degree.

I want you all to know how thankful I am for you. Whether I treated you just once or you had regular visits, please know how grateful I am for the opportunity you have provided me to grow and learn. You all had a part in teaching me how to become a better doctor and person. Without the trust you placed in me by walking into my office, I would not be where I am today.

My final week in the office will be the first week of January. If you would like to come in for an appointment before I leave, please reach out. I would love to see and say goodbye to as many of my patients as possible.

I will always be here for you should you ever need me. I have the ability to see patients virtually, should you ever want to pursue that option, and I am going to refer anyone who wants a recommendation to two very capable doctors, both of whom have been mentors to me. I am leaving secure in the knowledge that you will be in excellent hands.

Thank you again for being an integral part of my journey. I am grateful for the trust and support you have shown my throughout the years.

Sincerely,

Dr. Ryan Crandall.

Happy Birthday to the most amazing wife 💛

I don’t even want to think about what life would be like without you in it. Thanks for letting me travel the world with me and always laughing at my jokes to keep my self-esteem up 💛

There are a lot of things I love about my life.

I love my job.
I love learning.
I love our children.
But my favorite thing is getting to be your husband 💛 thanks for letting me love you in my own quirky way and dragging me out of my comfort zone.

From now until forever I love you!

And now it has to be forever because we put this lock on that bridge next to the Eiffel Tower 💛

Going to seminars, having mentors, learning from others, reading textbooks/articles, listening to people on social media it’s all great. But it doesn’t make you great.

There comes a point when you have to start making sense of things in your own words. Draw from the ideas of others but don’t blindly follow them because they teach a course or have a lot of followers.

Always ask why. Push yourself to understand things at a deeper level. Even if it doesn’t make sense to anyone else but makes sense to you then you’ve got something.

I feel like we’ve lost the ability to think for ourselves. To be creative. So we latch on to what other people talk about or say and never do the work ourselves to have a clear understanding of what we are trying to learn.

Anyone can memorize facts and regurgitate what others say. Few can draw their own conclusions and create something truly unique.

Learning never stops. No one has it all figured out. Keep striving for greatness. Be your own best teacher. Ask the right questions. Fail often. And then try again tomorrow.

🤟🏼
