Everyone talks about how to “fix” rib flare — ribs down, tuck your pelvis, exhale more. But the truth? Those quick cues often miss the point. Rib flare isn’t just about how you’re positioned. It’s about how your body coordinates position, shape, and pressure — and when one’s off, the whole system compensates. In this video, we’ll break down what rib flare actually is, why it’s so hard to fix, and the three components you need to restore balance and control. You’ll see what most people get wrong, what to do instead, and the specific exercises to help your ribs, diaphragm, and pelvis work together again. Once you understand how to move and breathe from the inside out, you’ll feel stronger, more stable, and more efficient in everything you do — from lifting to daily movement. That’s what we teach in this video, in our programs, and with our clients.
