Sneak Peak Excerpt from our soon to be released New Book: Secrets of the 15 Minute Shoulder Fix

Have you ever driven your car a few blocks and something does not seem right? When you let off the gas, your car stops short. To move forward, you seem to have to push the gas harder than normal. All of a sudden it hits you, the emergency brake was not all the way off! You could still drive, but it was wearing out your brake, you were burning more gas, and there was an abnormal resistance to moving forward.

When your body has a mobility issue, you may be able to move seemingly alright. You may even measure motion and appear to be normal. When you really break it down, if you really feel for the resistance to motion during passive testing, there just seems to be something a little extra there. There’s a lack of smoothness. Maybe you need more force to push the body part through the motion. This is the emergency brake. If you have a tight antagonist (opposing muscle) to the muscle or area experiencing pain, then you are operating with the emergency brake on.   This is going to result in the painful area to test “weak”, and the typical response is that we need to strengthen it! Avoid making that assumption without checking into it more.
