Over 600 muscles in the human body and each one can experience strain, pain or injury and radiate problems to surrounding musculature and joints. Yet none has quite the impact of the psoas. This single muscle sits at the very center of the body and it's dysfunction is capable of altering the biomechanics of the entire body. In fact, it's so pivotal to posture and movement that one can't even stand in a neutral and healthy position without a sound and functional psoas. This video covers the functions of the psoas, including some controversy over it's primary purpose, as well as how to train the psoas for function, performance and health.

    Another thing you can do to fix the Psoas (and a whole heap of other issues) is walking lunges. They not only stretch the Psoas but also strengthen it, lunges also rebalance the hips when muscles in the area are out of balance. There’s a Men’s fitness model guy named Craig Gregory and he’s a big proponent for daily 400m walking lunges (if you can’t go outdoors, do reverse lunges on the spot for 15 minutes) he does them for general fitness, wellbeing, fat loss etc it’s the only lower body exercise I do these days, helped heal my knee, a click in my hip, really increased my hip flexibility, weight loss, posture, core etc, after a while you’d be surprised at how athletically explosive you are cause walking lunges simulate an athletic position over and over. The great thing about them is you can take your time, go fast, go slow, just don’t stop for 15 min (obviously work o to it).

    Did I just find the best muscle anatomy channel on youtube?
  • The art on this channel is seriously so illuminating, it’s always perfectly demonstrating what you’re saying and having the imagery really helps it stick in my brain, thank you
  • @pranakhan
    This is next level, in terms of both art and articulation of concept. Excellent job, I'm happy to share this
  • @davidec.4021
    Bro the arms of the spine illustration is equally genius and unsettling
  • @Atlas_21
    If you squat too heavy you'll have a Psoas.

    Man I love these videos. They really make you realise what a miracle the human body is (and all the ways I've been letting mine down) 😂
  • @imjustmekai6176
    One of my favorite channels. Not only do I love the info but I also love how y’all draw everything out and give more depth. I find it more intriguing and easier to understand. And there’s really no one else with this kind of style
  • @ari4918
    that reverse curl analogy was amazing and really helped my understanding
  • @elzarees279
    The visual graphics and art really increased my understanding of the different functions of the muscles and the great references to other techniques and traditions is a fantastic way of building a holistic understanding and outlook on the body, excellent video!

    that walk with your hips first tip just changed everything for me!!! I instantly noticed the difference. I was a bodybuilder previously and it's been very hard ot break the rigidness I grew used to from being too big and not flexible enough as well as the movements we use are typically more rigid than yoga type movements.Glad I've left that part of my life behind but it taught me a lot!
  • @Cfass1
    Best video on YouTubes. You hit all of the major points and you really know your psoas
  • @djj3357
    Thanks for bringing the content that's so important to overall health!!! You're awesome 💯🔥
  • Top notch content as always man, thank you! Will insert some of those exercises into my APT recovery routine.
  • @Scrubbbbz
    Goated video. I’ve been doing my research on this for a while. Thank you brother.

    The visualisations you make for these videos are incredibly powerful, they really change my perspective on how my muscles function to the point where in some cases, it feels like by using this visualisation while activating the muscle, I'm actually 100% using it for the first time in my life, just because I'm trying a range of motion that didn't occur to me that the muscle could do.
