William RichardsHey guys, looking to get some direction with a 4+ week-long bout of erector tightness. Feels great when walking, moving, and exercising but standing and sitting is just a constant tightness that DOES NOT respond to stretching. I am convinced it’s a muscle activation issue where it’s compensating for something not firing like it should but I wouldn’t say my core is “weak” so I am just stumped. Where should I go from here? How do I get my central nervous system to shut these muscles down and act right!
Thanks
William
Pete LuffmanI’d love to hear some suggestions here also. Mine is chronically tight and I’ve tried so many things.
Travis JewettWhat does your environment look like? What started the original issue? Was it after a particular kind of training session? If you have access to some kind of stim device, electrical current can calm the feeling of muscle tightness and “reset” length tension relationships. Take a look at how you sit/stand and see if there are ways you change your environment so you can be in the best available positions. Many times when people spend a lot of time over extended as they are just standing around it can lead to the feelings of chronic stiffness in the lower back.
Kaitlin LyonsWhat have tried that you saw improvements with?
What have you done that you didn’t see improvements with?
Are you working up/downstream of where you are seeing the issue?
Where you see the problem isn’t always where the problem originates.
