ABSTRACT: Do you Have Back Pain, a knee injury or neck pain that won’t go away? The Answer is likely a scoliosis diagnosed in your Love Handles!! I’m not one who thinks the tools for health should be held by a few practitioners whom the majority must depend on. Our knowledge of self is the difference between a long, free healthy life or being a slave to pain and a decline in what we can physically do.
In the self-reliant spirit of The Ranks, I have a great PowerWire for you this week – a simple, POWERFUL, postural self-analysis in a full length mirror…
Pull down the shades, get into your skimmies and check out your LOVE HANDLES in the mirror (yes, even MR Preventer himself has some love handle to speak of…)
A) Do you see which side bulges more & is a bit higher?

**Congratulations!** You just uncovered a major musculo-skeletal asymmetry central to all the exercise strategy you are ever going to do!
What does the bigger bulge signify? What you see, my friends, is your scoliosis – a side bend of the spine – When the muscles on one side of our body pull more strongly than the other side, the whole pelvis shifts towards the stronger side causing the tell-tale larger bulge!
Read about major culprits causing the Love Handle Mismatch on the 8 Crossroads Section of the RanksAcademy website: 1) The Bitter End 2) Backfire 3) Quadzilla 4) Hip-A-Tightus
Do you Have Back Pain, a knee injury or neck pain that won’t go away? The Answer is likely in your Love Handles!! What the Different size Love Handles showcase is an asymmetrical posture. When an ache or pain does not get better after ten days or so, we are living with an asymmetrical posture – The counter-intuitive aspect of chronic pain is that we do not experience the same pain each day. Rather something off in our posture re-injures anew all the time!

Getting over local problems such as foot, knee and back pain requires restoring global symmetry to our bodies.
In The Ranks, we do a 40 point Postural Evaluation as a baseline of treatment plan. We need to be armed with as much information about ourselves as possible.
But just this info about your Love Handle sizes is plenty to guide training and recovery
And how to Even our Uneven Love Handles? We Answer our Anatomy Back! The side with the larger Love Handle is the side receiving Strategic deep tissue work to Release the constricted muscles pulling our pelvis (and center of gravity over to one side)

In The Ranks, we call this self-applied deep tissue work, “The Gluing Energy Process” So get a Handle on Your Posture and solve your chronic pain problems – Feel the Love from The Ranks
