Hi Tj! Thanks for watching. I hope this one helps you. :)

Recently found your channel and so many lightbulbs turning on. I’m a newish student of Tracy Anderson Method and your channel is a perfect companion. As I feel things release and balance I have the “why” and thorough description of the problem and can continue to work on it. Thank you for your wisdom and clear direction!!

Thanks for this vid Dr T. I can relate to it exactly. I tend to hunch forward because it intuitively feels safer even though logically that does not make sense.. I am constantly reminded to stand up straight but it’s hard to ignore that voice in my head telling me to be safe. I’m glad to know that’s a common situation.

Thank you for today this is my first time seeing this video

Incredibly helpful! I developed backache and getting more hunched over due to having to pack sort and lift my household before relocating, twice in 2 years! THAT is why it hurts to stand up straight and I have been frustrated not understanding what to change and get myself upright again, You have helped me incredibly - thank you!!!! I always was so aware, before, of having a good posture.....thought it had went together with the last of my sixties.....NOT SO! WOW!!!!

I really love your channel. I’ve only recently found you. Just wow! Thank you.

Hi Madison! Thank you for watching! I am so glad you found the information easy to digest. That is always my goal :)

Thank you Dr. Tobias.

I watched this for a third time now. Wow. I have not had a stroke or anything like it. But since my husband passed away nearly five years ago, I have had to sit bent forward in order to sort and pack my household to relocate- not once but twice! Due to several early adult orthopedic problems and surgeries kneeling or crouching is out of the question. So I sit on something really low, hunched forward! Now I understand why I walk stooped - apart from intermittent backache. I am trying your exercises and really hope they help me walk upright - I used to have a very purposefully erect posture! I also follow a daily series of chair pilates which is strengthening and stretching various muscles and joints - I am determined to rectify this stooped over posture! Thank you for your vids and tips, really appreciate you! I sing semi professionally, so my core is quite strong - just need to add your recommendations.....

Thanks, I love you so happy that I found you. Blessings

Thank you..will try these soon!

Excellent video! I didn't know so many others suffered this problem too.

Wow. Recovering from c6 quadriplegia ...this is great!

I agree, best Therapist!

💫💛💫 Thank you Dr. Tara for bringing this up. It is such an ugly theme as it makes us look much older and sicker than we are. Having been sporty 2.5 years ago, it is really bad to walk bent over. For me it is pure fear of falling as the left knee is so unstable with the nerves not properly working. I practice putting the hips forward but only at home on my furniture walkways. It feels so good to stretch the hip out and walk straight and proud again. But it is dangerous outside so the bent position is a protection and makes the body basis larger. I'm working on it and will try your exercises. Many greetings over the Atlantic and stay happy and healthy! 💫💛💫

Hi John! I am glad to be back and interacting with you all this week :)

Thank you for your videos, my wife recently had a stroke, she now has some movement she can push down on her foot, what exercise do you recommend for the upward motion for her foot?

An aso is an ankle brace. I wear one all the time and it really helps

My therapist kept telling me to stick my chest out, and that straighten me up Chest out, shoulders back

Great video! Do you recommend trying to sleep on your back at night to encourage hip extension (even though I am a side sleeper)? Also do you have any videos on pros and cons of sleeping positions? Thanks!

Hi, please make a video for pusher syndrome like how to train them sit straighter. Being tired handling a pusher syndrome family member. Thank you

I wonder if any if the Judo techniques for falling safely would be beneficial to stroke survivors. Had a fall myself about a week ago, had plenty of warning that my leg was going to buckle so when I got to the point where my weak leg was about to buckle I was able to fall on my own terms - the very limited Judo training I had in my teens allowed me to fall backwards onto asphalt without any injury. Not pleasant, but not catastrophic

I spending too much time in my w/c and this exacerbates my hunching - especially since I like to sit on front edge of the cushion. This facilitate me doing various tasks with my arms however overtime I fatigue and it weakens my posture- overtime.

Really wish I'd had this kind of advice sometime during the 5 years since my stroke. I had physio treatment to get me on my feet and walking, but nothing with this level of insight or expertise. I'm 6'3" and about 150kg so getting back to standing and walking was quite the struggle. Luckily I was provided with a hospital bed, but being so large I find it extremely uncomfortable trying to sleep in a single bed, apparently I need to gain 30kg before I qualify for a bariatric bed, which I don't really want to do just to get a decent night's sleep occasionally. Getting 2-4 hours a night at the moment and constantly exhausted.

I bought one of those life Pro deals you stand on. today was the first day I got on it because I became pissed as I usually am everyday at certain times haha. My wife looked at me like you ain't never going to get up out of that chair on that thing and I got up and she cranked it to 5 and I was able to do like 3 minutes and that really give me a workout. Then she turned it up to 9 and holy crap I couldn't last very long about 1 minute. I said see you old lady you can't kill me 😂 I think I'm going to write a book about getting really pissed because I think it's good for people who are trying to regain what they lost. Get pissed get up I might call it

Hello Dr T, been watching your videos since a Thalamic Stroke in January 2021 after ACDF surgery, C-6- T-1, 6 months of P.T., home exercises, struggling with yard work and numerous meds later, even tried water Therapy this year, developed sciatica from that, still no relief, I what am I doing wrong?

For me it truly worsened after a Guillian Barre Syndrome attack that paralyzed me from the waist down 4 years ago. I´m just 66 yet, feel as if I look 80. I would love to improve!

Particularly when walking ,forward flexed body dtructure fits my bad situatuon v i feel this ve situatuon as if my upper body want helps walking by moving itself front side upperbody is at front but lower boody is at back , but if i brace my leg afo , i am more taller and straight,,though injection 3 season botox injection to my gastro muscle ankle spasticityhardens walking without brace, thanx forr all dear Tara

Dr , please share the name of the walker. Thank you so much

Let me know about hand strok to cure the problem.

Good am! What is the best exercise for my son who is walking with slighty bend knees and so very slow? He suffered a brain traumatic injury due to electricution. As of today, he cannot speak and move well.

Usually they have an inversion ankle and can't lift ankle up neutrally

I was bedridden for about 6 months before the amputation and now I have been in a wheelchair for a year. My prosthetic does not have a flexible ankle. I am going to try these exercises. Are there any more exercises that an amputee can try, or should these exercises be enough?
