 Hi, I'm Dr. Molly with Your Goals Physical Therapy. Have you been trying to do planks, but your wrist just will not tolerate being in this position. You're stuck on your elbows doing them, but you really want to progress to get where you can do them on your hands. This video is for you. I'm gonna start by talking a little bit about the anatomy on why you possibly have a problem with your wrist. Then I'm gonna give you a couple stretches that you can try to do at home to alleviate that. Then finally, we will end with the surefire way to make sure that you don't have any problems doing any activity that requires you to wait bare on your hands, because oftentimes it's not just planks that are giving people problems.
It's other activities too.  Hi, I'm Dr. Molly with Your Goals Physical Therapy.

 Hi, I'm Dr. Molly with Your Goals Physical Therapy. In this video, I have a funny story. I'm gonna kind of tell on myself a little bit. I ended up straining both my Pec muscles, not just one, but both. Let's just go for the Guster here. I wanted to share with you how I got past that in just a few days. So we'll start this story off by saying I had one of the best chest workouts that I had had in a long time. I was able to have a personal best with the number of pushups I was able to do.
The whole workout was great. When I got up from that, I was feeling like I was a rock star.  Hi, I'm Dr. Molly with Your Goals Physical Therapy.
Are you trying to get back into fitness and for whatever reason, your knees are killing you every time you try to do a squat and it's completely derailing your fitness goals. I mean, what Aerus class can you do without squatting? What fitness program in general, like any weight lifting, all requires you to be able to squat. How do you progress in your fitness if your knees bother you? For many people, if you're looking through the internet, You're probably like “this is my last leg. If my knees are just not gonna tolerate squatting, I'm just gonna give up doing this fitness thing, because it's just not worth the knee pain.”  Are you a swimmer that is trying to get back to swimming, but has severe shoulder pain. That's preventing you from doing it. This video is perfect for you. I'm Dr. Molly with Your Goal Physical Therapy. I help swimmers get back to their favorite sport, swimming! Despite shoulder pain. That's right, it does not have to be an ending event. If you start to get shoulder pain and you love swimming, you don't have to change up your stroke. It is possible to get back to swimming at a hundred percent with no deficits and no pain. I help people all the time do that every day.
It's amazing. It's wonderful. Most of the time, the conversations start with the people who come and see me. They are very nervous about what they did to their shoulder. They are nervous that they have to have surgery. They are nervous that they have to give up swimming forever. I'm gonna address those three things.  Hi, I'm Dr. Molly with Your Goals Physical Therapy. Have you been stuck squatting the same weight and you cannot push past it for whatever reason you start having low back achy pains, that lasts for a few days or maybe one side is just really sharp. In some cases, some people describe that they can't control the butt wink. So where your hip tucks underneath, or they have a little wiggle. They squat down and then they shift over and all of these things are limiting how much you can squat or how well you can squat. You're just frustrated. You're trying to figure out what it is that you're doing wrong, That's not letting you progress.
I want to ask, has anybody ever suggested that you might have a leg length discrepancy? And this is why? So a leg length discrepancy means that one leg is longer than the other, longer is shorter depending on what you're talking about. Right?  Hi, I'm Dr. Molly with Your Goals Physical Therapy. Are you wondering why you have knee pain after going rollerblading? This video is perfect for you and it got inspired by Shandra. Shandra called me very frantic and very worried that she was gonna need surgery after going rollerblading with her kids. Shandra's telling me that she used to go rollerblading all the time as a kid. They would get dropped off at the rink, be there for hours. It was a wonderful memory and she thought she was gonna be able to share that with her kids. Well, she did actually share that with her kids, but now she's worried that she needs surgery or that she broke something. She's just very anxious when she calls me.
So in this video, I'm gonna go over what happened and why Shandra started having pain and what you can do right now, if that is your situation. If you're having knee pain right now, what can you do today? Then ultimately how Shandra got out of this knee pain without surgery.  Hi, I'm Dr. Molly with Your Goals Physical Therapy. Okay. Martial artists. Are you trying to improve the strength of your kick?Well then let's talk about your feet, because that will get you a much stronger kick.

Or being able to pull your ankle uptight. I wanna talk about those of you out there that have your arches that drop. In this video, we're gonna talk a little bit about the anatomy of a foot and how important the arch is. And then we're gonna talk about even if you know that you have the arch problem, why you can't just go on YouTube and figure this out, why that's so complicated and you've probably been spinning your wheels for a very long time, trying to figure that out.
