Fix Rib Flare Exercises

  • Stretches, make sure you stretch!
  • Pushups are heavily important overall, I recommend building up to 100 Push ups a week.
  • Crunches are priority, daily I recommend 100 crunches. Quality vs quantity, do the crunch movements slowly instead of in quick succession. Be sure to breathe accordingly as you are moving!
  • Side Bends, there are many variations of side bends; Side Bends generally target the obliques, this can help with the upper most part of the abs and the most highest point of rib flare, 
  • Squats, this is mostly for balancing and practicing good posture. Building up the legs and finding good form will benefit your general cardio as well.

Fix Pectus Excavatum

  • Stretches, they must be apart of your routine before and after a workout, course refresh a little bit between sets.
  • Pushups, Variations of pushups can include inclined, and one handed pushups, 3 sets of 25 a day can suffice. One hundred a day challenge is always a welcomed challenge.
  • Crunches, 3 Sets of 20 a day.
  • Side Bends, 50 reps a day.
  • Squats, 30 a day.
