A tight piriformis can cause knee problems as well as piriformis syndrome where the tight piriformis impinges the sciatic nerve causing shooting pain down from the glutes area all the way down the leg (sciatica)
To perform Self Myo Fascial Release (SMFR) on the piriformis sit on a foam roller.
If you are going to do your right side, cross your right leg over your straight left leg.
Turn towards the leg which is up crossed over the leg and massage along the side of the glutes.
The piriformis is responsible for external rotation and is very powerful. It is deep so you have to find the right spot to get it with the roller.

Description: http://askthetrainer.com/ab-exercise-videos.html
The (more...) advanced bicycle is a great exercise to work your abdominals. The bicycle maneuver allows you to totally isolate your abdominals.
This advanced set of the bicycle requires you to lift your upper back and shoulders completely off of the floor.
Kick one leg all the way out and bring one knee back to your opposite elbow which you have twisted from the opposite side.
Do around 20 reps and then hold for 5-10 seconds with your elbow touching your knee. This should burn your abdominals.
After your 5-10 second hold, perform another 20 reps of the bicycle and repeat.
This is a great abdominals exercise because your hip flexors is taken out of the motion.
You can also perform this with your back touching the floor, just make sure your shoulders are off of the floor.
Remember you will not burn fat off your mid section by any crunch or situp exercise.

Barbell Rows Row Lat back Functional Exercise
Produced By:

Category: Exercise
Description: http://askthetrainer.com/best-back-exercise.html
Barbell (more...) Rows are one of the most basic and functional back or lats exercises but it is absolutely you perform them properly or a lower back injury is very possible.
Keep your legs bent and your back flat. Never let your shoulders round. Also keep the weight as close to your center of gravity as possible.
This means the bar should be as close to your body for the whole range of motion.
Keep strict form. If you look in a mirror on the side, your back will be around 45 degrees and when you lift the bar up all the way to your stomach your elbows should be above your back.
If you are healthy and experienced, barbell rows are a great functional exercise for strength.
If you have lower back pain, NEVER do barbell rows, there are many exercises which can work the same muscles.
