I was wondering what I should do in regards to my hip pain when I go too low on squats or do any activity that requires bringing my knee high up, such as biking or sprinting. I’m a 17 year-old boy, 6 feet 2, lifting for 7 months now using SL5x5 and getting some decent results so far. If I don’t go back to squats and deadlifts soon enough, I’ll go crazy. The pain only occurs when I do some sort of effort, when I don’t, it just calms down. So I guessed it was just some tightness in the hip flexors or something like that. It’s not a stabbing pain, so I guess I know for a fact that it’s not a joint pain… I dunno, you tell me, you’re the expert.

You’re probably right about your hip flexors being tight. Add the following “posture stretches” to your routine (see video) AND work to strengthen core stabilization with exercises like “the plank”, etc.


yes, it can but I promise you that the stretch will not nearly as severe an effective as when done on the stool. You can have a stool set up like the one in my video for about the same price that it would cost to buy a foam roller. I would suggest making one and using it daily. In fact I use it 3 to 5 times a day.

At what age do you stop growing the reason i ask is i am 62 years young but find it hard to put size on

Muscle growth is intrinsically tied to hormones. As your body begins to produce less anabolic hormones, your capacity for muscular growth diminishes. But this doesn’t mean that you can’t get stronger.

Strength is a function of the nervous system, and you can always increase the efficiency of your nervous system.

Yo Elliot! After standing still for even short amounts of time (doing dishes or brushing my teeth) I catch myself standing on the outsides of my feet and need to actively correct it repeatedly. I’ve been more aware of this more so in the last 2 years and wonder what this could be doing to my ankles/feet and how I might be able to correct it?

Thanks for your time and keep up the amazing work, really love the YouTube channel, it has helped me immensely with working on my posture and building the strongest version of myself. My favorites are the bio-energetic exercises and I’m currently destroying those muscle viruses!

Many muscular tightness is an weakness in the legs are due to an ungrounded character structure. Someone who may have a hard time “standing their ground”.

Try heavy stomping one or both legs on the ground, and include deep whooo sounds each time you land.

On a neuromuscular level you may have very tight arches in your feet and tight cats I found that by rolling your feet out on a wine bottle and foam rolling your calves you release much of this tension.

I’ve started to Box, and as a right-handed person, I naturally have a weak jab, therefore, I automatically switch to a south-paw stance as a reflex, which I should not do! What kind of exercises would you suggest I do to strengthen my CNS to my left arm better so my punching would feel more natural?

Any time there is a left to right imbalance I always invite my clients to have their Atlas checked by an upper cervical specialist.

Keep practicing with proper form and eventually it will come like 2nd nature. It’s amazing how the nervous system works. The world’s most amazing computer!

Hey Elliott I’ve been on a program called max overload training for about a year now and at the beginning I was gaining strength fast this program is a heavy weight low rep routine where u max out and shoot for 4-6 reps if u can do 7 reps then its time to increase the weight this routine was fairly effective for a while but as of recently I feel as if i lost a bit of strength and haven’t been able to excel any further with this program my goal is to be the strongest person I can be but havent been able to increase my max what do u think I should do to overcome this brickwall?

You can add these to the beginning of your workouts or creates separate days to do these plyometrics. Good luck.

As a person training as a Fire Fighter, I was wondering if you had any tips on how to maintain hydration or increase stamina. You see, wearing our bunker gear with an SCBA tank on our backs; this really adds on about 55 pounds and can really tire someone out FAST! Maybe you had some tips on building the muscles we need or how to endure a high temperatures? Maybe how to stay focused?

With regard to hydration I would suggest drinking half your body weight in ounces of water every single day also add a pinch of Celtic sea salt to your water this will help you retain hydration.

My football coach used to tell me the only way to get better at football is to play football. This is true with every activity the only way to get better carrying your tanks with minimal oxygen is to practice can your tank with minimal oxygen.

While injured its best to rest. But there are some corrective stretches and exercises that you can do to help speed the process and help you avoid the injury again in the future.

I like the group fitness classes at my gym. They Seem to be more endurance than strength based and I find myself increasing volume over intensity though. How do I fix this?
