Courses Followed: TFL Pain Solution
Just thought I would let you know that I am pleased with the program. A year ago I had bilateral hip replacements which apparently left me with some muscle imbalances. I was getting a sharp pain on the outer part of my right thigh but it was intermittent and I could not tell what was triggering it. Physical therapy just kept telling me to strengthen my glutes – which I was constantly working on but things kept getting worse. I have a dance background so I decided to do a degage’ repetively until it triggered (trying to figure out what was causing it).
I started to realize that it was not the type of movement as much as the volume of movement.
Then online I found Coach Eric’s TFL pain solution. Then everything made sense. What Physical therapy did not tell me is I have to strengthen the glutes but also deactivate the TFL. I was working my glutes but then the TFL would try to take over and end up in a spasm. Probably also pulling on the IT band. The TFL pain solution has brought the pain down from 5 or 6 times a day to only once or twice a week. I am hopeful that I can eliminate it entirely. I just started the hip pain solution as an adjunct.
Your program has really helped me solve this mystery pain. Thanks!
