WHAT CAUSES MUSCLE KNOTS?
💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪
The most common causes of muscle knots are:
1⃣Accidents💥 – Acute trauma, such as bad falls & sports injuries that strain you joints and muscles
2⃣Postural Stress😣 – Sitting too long with poor posture, sitting with no support, & lifting improperly
3⃣Overstimulation – Strenuous exercise and sport activities, especially lifting weights
➡️If you are developing muscle knots frequently from lifting weights in your shoulders, neck, or upper, or middle back, the likely cause is a postural issue. For example, if you have rounded shoulders from sitting in a office, your back muscles are already overstretched because your shoulders are rounded forwards. When you complete some pull-ups, or rows, your muscle will be stretched even further when lowering the weight, then will forcibly contract when lifting the weight. This over-stretching combined with intense contractions can overstimulate your muscles causing those nasty muscle knots to form.
