This has opened my eyes.

I used to think that TOS was just an upper body issue. Nope. I'm convinced that my entire movement pattern, from top to bottom, is just wrong. And worse, my workouts at the gym and poor sitting posture is just making it all worse.

Strengthening the entire posterior chain changes everything. My low back and glutes (which I've neglected forever) are now stronger...after just one week of doing these exercises...and it allows me to hold stronger posture easier. And what's most amazing is that the movements I usually do at the gym are now even stronger.

What's great is that you don't need to workout for an hour. Do this for 10 minutes every morning and you'll see the difference.

I really can't recommend this enough. I've been looking for some kind of "yoga-ish" type thing to integrate into my activity. This is it.

Cool! Thanks for sharing! I don't have the DVD's but I might buy them myself. Let us know how your progress goes.
