Wish I had known this as a child... I could stand in 2nd position ballet and my knees were together while my feet were a feet apart. Kind of a party trick until I got older... last diagnosed with EDS. But not before dislocating both knees and then rupturing one cruciate within 6 months. Injured one, and suddenly I couldn't hyperextend that knee, so I was putting so much pressure standing on the one t hat felt normal to me (but wasn't). Then, a few months later, standing in my friends living room, my other knee spontaneously dislocated rupturing my ACL. Was very sad that I was told for 35 years that I was just injury prone... until my collarbone separated from my sternum (clearly not normal), and I diagnosed myself and then went to a geneticist for the EDS diagnosis. So sad that many of us are not diagnosed. One doctor at Emory said he did not think I had a CTD and was just injury prone, but he never did the Beighton scoring. Very sad. Amazing how many EDS patients end up with PTSD regarding doctors due to them ignoring our complaints for decades... and also getting multiple injuries.

Thank you so much for sharing your story, csias40. I'm sorry to hear that the diagnosis took so long and so many injuries to figure out.

Wow, as a stroke survivor and having this very issue with my effected side. I'm fixing to go back to PT in the next week. I'm going to take this and get help doing it. Although, it sounds like a lot of work. LOL. I've yet to see this protocal from a therapist. I will be sharing. Thanks. I'll keep you posted.

Thank you Yoni! Please explain creating a shortening of that muscle in a neurological sense... Thank you❤

Great question, Galit! The idea here is to direct the increase in resting tone that's created by resistance training toward the muscle in its shortest position. Building tension here will have an overall shortening (closing) effect on the tissues & that can be advantageous for someone with hypermobility. Essentially, we're looking to create the opposite effect of things like Pilates where a person is encouraged to lengthen tissues through a very large range of motion.

Thanks so much for these exercises Yoni! I’d love to see more exercises/methods that address hypermobility issues. Particularly, exercises and strategies to relieve hip pain triggered by laxity in the ligaments and hip stabilizer muscles. I work at strengthening my hip stabilizers however my big muscles are constantly firing to compensate for the stabilizers leading to constant hip/glute med/ psoas pain/SI joint pain. Also your thoughts on the effectiveness of prolotherapy to build stability in the joints and mediate pain would be appreciated.

I have spondylosis caused by my holding my spine rigid in bed when I was in my early thirties (circa 1992), because I was afraid to make any noise of moving around in the bed. I had never had any back problems before besides mild lower back pain from lifting objects. That combined with general muscle weakness is my downfall. This is what I'd like to see a video on -- when you can't move your spine about freely or bend down very much, causing a serious lack of range of motion.

PS I'd love to see exercises for hyper mobility of the elbow and how to perform exercises on all 4 where you need to extend the elbows to straight arm. Thank you!

Yoni it was interesting to me that you mentioned stiff muscles - I’ve got joint hyper mobility and fibromyalgia (heard they can go together) - fell and broke femur Sept 2020 then a TKR a year ago. Had to go for manipulation under anesthesia 7 weeks post op which only made issue worse. Many months later got the flexion but the knee and surrounding muscles still feel so stiff, the knee has yet to feel like part of my leg but rather a board in there. Never thought that could be a part of the joint hyper mobility. Sure wish I could see you as it’s brought about so many other muscle issues. I heard Peter Attia say when an older person falls one of 2 things likely happens - they’re dead within 3 days or they’ve started they’re long journey towards death. I can relate! My brother said well at our age we’ve all started that journey but my slow journey has been accelerated. :-)

I disagree with Dr. Attia's dark view. Falls can happen at any age - and if a person is willing to work at it consistently - they can mitigate their risk, improve their fitness and quality of life while significantly reducing the likelihood of future falls. I go over some of that in this video: kzitem.info/news/bejne/yZ-f0aiFkpSbY4o

Yes! That's very good general advice, Melvin! With hyper-mobility though, it's range of motion has to be controlled in order to avoid damage and premature degeneration.

I have bone on bone in my right knee and have been getting steroid shots. I would like to try something else instead. I probably would benefit strengthen the muscles in the knee. Can you recommend something.

One more question- if a person is too week for the modification you demonstrated, can a pillow under the pelvis help? They can still press and pull and work the hamstrings with supported elevated pelvis, can't they?

When further regression is needed, my preference is to first, try allowing a greater degree of hip flexor assistance. Then there's always the option to eliminate the instability component (use) a chair/stool instead and make the exercise isometric.
