      Hey guys had a question every now and again I get hot nerve pain in my left elbow on the inside (medial) after I back squat. I was wondering if it could be cause by my shoulder rolling a little forward during my lift or if there could be another cause. I did notice after doing the barbell shoulder(anterior) smash the hotness went away a bit. If you guys and gals have any thoughts that would be great. To KStar I bought your book and I wanted to thank you it has been great for my wife and I in resolving out mobility issues keep up the great work.

      Are you able to squat without your shoulder rolling forward?

      Yes, Kelly’s view on icing has changed since this episode was completed.
      He would not recommend icing.

      yes i am able to squat without my shoulders rolling forward i have noticed that it happens when i don’t take my time to set-up for the squat. 

       thanks for the videos i’ll have my wife voodoo me and see if that helps. 
      do yo have anything on stuck toe joints, stubbed my pinky toe a few months back not broken had x-rays but i dont have any control of that toe ex. can’t spread it apart from the 5th meta. like i can on my other foot. i can post pictures if it will help.

      Yes, take time to set up before your squat.
      Correct positioning and movement patterning allows you to realize more of your potential.
      Have you had someone pull on it to make sure its not jammed?
      Same as you would do on your finger.
      Have you done any foot mobility?
      Put a ball (YTU or something softer than a lacrosse ball) at the bottom of your toes take your opposite heel push on the top of your foot from med foot through your toes.

      You are reaching the limit of your positioning.
      How is your sub scap mobility?
