Resilient Rehab Podcast

  Most people think a hip hike is a muscle problem — something to stretch, release, or strengthen away. In this episode, Alex breaks down why that's backwards. A hip hike isn't the cause of dysfunction, it's the result of it: a compensation for where your base of support, pelvis, and spine are positioned in space. Alex walks through the full mechanical chain, from foot pronation to femoral ro...

  Two of the most common cues you'll see online: "tuck your ribs" and "tuck your pelvis", feel like they're fixing posture, but they're usually just shuffling the whole structure around and creating new compensations. In this episode, Alex Effer breaks down why cueing the rib cage and pelvis directly tends to backfire, and shares a simple framework for getting the same positions through your...

Do you have a high arch that never seems to improve, no matter how many foot drills, pronation exercises, or mobility routines you try? In this video, Alex Effer breaks down why a rigid high arch is often a symptom of what's happening elsewhere in the body, not just the foot itself. You'll learn how the ribcage, pelvis, hips, and overall body position influence foot mechanics, why the toes and hee...
