    In today’s QnA video, I answer the following questions:

    Triceps Bench Dip – Yay or Nay? (no name) [00:37]

    =================

    Hi Eric, I suffer with a hypermobile sacroiliac joint and periodically visit an osteopath to ‘click’ me back into place.

    It’s very painful and when the surrounding muscles tighten I really struggle to even walk!

    Can you give me any stabilisation exercises to help me?

    Thanks – Nic x Nicola, Carden-Nowell, Northwich UK [01:49]

    I follow 5/3/1 revolves around squat bench deads and shoulder press.

    I notice a decrease in shoulder range of motion as my bench goes up.

    So basically I want to know which exercises should I train for mma, which should I throw away.

    Keeping good posture is important to me, I have trouble squeezing my shoulder blades together at all, have very tight lats upper traps and chest.
