Transcript

In this video, I would like to introduce you different positions of blood tests. So I do hope that this will be beneficial for you before we start to begin our course. So let's have a look at the different positions of flutters. So the first one that I would like to introduce you is all force, okay? So I want you to come on your knees, okay, you're on your knees and just bring your hands in front of you. So the reason why it's called is all four because you have one hand here and the other one and third unit and 14, okay.

So, once you're in this position, what is important here is that your arms should be straight, okay? And your arms should be in the shoulder level. So, here when when you look at your belly, and when you check my body I have a nice 90 degrees here, okay? So I'm not if I'm in this position, so this is not good because you see now the angle is larger, so this is not good. So I have to push myself forward. And the other important thing is my arms.

They are not the my hand, sorry, they are not a unleveled. So, if my arm is here, the other one is just parallel to the other one and just here. Okay. So when we fix the arms, let's look at to the shoulders. Okay, so here, my shoulders quite up and wide open. So if my shoulders are close to my ears like this, this is not good.

So you have to bring them back and open. And if your chest is down like this, this is not good. You have to press your chest up. So this is good. All right. So let's have a look at our legs and hips.

So When I placed my legs, the most important is that my legs or my hip width apart, okay? So I'm not opening my legs like this, or I'm not closing them or not, is not like this one of my knee here and the other one is here. So you see this is, this is not level. If I'm like this, this is not level that's not good. So I have to bring the book nice. He pulled apart and it's aligned with my hips.

Alright, so let's go back again to the position. So once I have this position, I slowly go down on my hands. And now this is my optimal position, and let's look at to my hip. Okay, so what's happening there? So if my hip is tilted like this, this is not good. It means I'm marking my chest here and making my belly closer to floor.

This is not good. So I have to push and move my hips in Okay, but not so much neither like this just like this. Just you have 90 degrees everywhere. All right. So this is your all for position. Let's check next position.

Okay, the next position has called palm, okay, and is basically lying. We will lie on our chest. So let's try and see how it feels. So when I lie on my chest like this, I can put my head on my mat. That's totally fine. On some exercises, we will be working on our forearms like this.

Alright, or my hands could be beside my butt like this. Very simple. So basically, this is your prone position. Alright, and the next position is spine. So is the opposite of prom. Yeah.

So we will be laying on our bed. back and this will be our supine position very easy. And most of the practice exercises actually that we will be doing it will be in this position. So when you lie on your back, this is your spine position alright and the next position is sitting. We also have few exercises that we will be doing while we sit. So, I would like to show you this position first from this angle.

Okay. So here My legs are straight, and their hip width apart and my feet are flex. Okay. So here you see my position my shoulders, they're not down like this. I'm uptight here and my shoulders are open. Alright, so once you have this position, you can you can see how you feel first with your legs if it's too tight for you, and too difficult for you to stretch.

Legs like this, you can bend your legs, okay? Or you can put a pillow under your hips, so your hips will be lifted and you will have, you will do this exercise if this position is here. So let's have a look from this angle as well. Just to see the position of my back, so again, my legs are stretch, okay, and my feet are flexed. And here my back, just check my back, my hips to my shoulders. It's very tight and straight.

Okay? So if I'm like this, this is not good. I have to be very straight up. And if you are not sure if you are enough straight and just please put your hand on your head and push your hand. So you see, there is a little bit of move, but like this, you feel that you are now very uptight here. Okay, so you have a nice night.

Two degrees here. Again if this position is difficult for you, we can bend your knees. So this will help you to stay up tight like this or you put the pillow under your sit bones. So this will also help you to sit up alright then the next position is pipeline. So we will be relying on our side. So we have few exercises with this position as well.

So here the most important thing is that you are very well aligned. Okay, so let me put my hand on the floor. So I'm basically lying on my side now is at the beginning maybe a bit difficult to keep your balance Okay, so here you have less space less area that is touching too much. So it's possible that you're like feeling like losing your balance. It's okay just put your hand in front of you to keep your balance and if this is painful, or if you Really cannot do this just bend through lower leg and keep the other leg up. So this will help you to keep your balances Whoa.

Okay, so this is your sideline. And the important thing here is that my toes, my ankle here, knee, hips, shoulder and you're all in same level and same alignment. Imagine that you are in between two gloves and you cannot move right if you're in between two gloves, so you have to be quite straight up like this. Okay, so that's it, this is your sideline position. So in the next lectures, we will be doing our exercises based on these different blood test positions.
