Many with Left side tighter than right?

ok cool, i understand.
It’s a postural strength imbalance from antagonist to agonist. And it’s mostly Left side tightness for most people as most people are Right side dominate?

I’m also guessing - it’s better to do this work AFTER doing some Foamrolling for better Stretching of the Agonist muscle whilst it’s under tension?

I’m also guessing - this should, once the motor learnings are properly in place, pretty much remove most, if not all tightness problems.

Thanks Pakewi - I’ll start implementing this ASAP and let you know the results.

And keep away from the bosu…

I would not prioritize tight muscle work of any kind,as that is the effect,not the cause.Address the cause first,either bilaterally or monolaterally depending on the means you use,and monitor how this affects the problem you are aiming to solve. I am not familiar neither with foam roaller,nor with any specific " therapy " mean,but I would surely stay away from the bosu,as it most likely would worsen the problem,and possibly allow for more to come.

Paradoxically enough I would also stay away from most proximal (core) work,and concentrate on balancing out distal feedback to the brain from the limbs at least until less and less compensatory patterns (tightness) are evident.
