So if you're going to lie somebody on the side and roll them, the socket turns basically up and away. So would you roll them in a direction but down and toward the knee to get the last time to go in the proper direction?

Yeah, she's going to roll out to the pinky toe side of her foot until she can step back. So we don't change the sled drag step pattern until we can do the left foot forward staggered stance activities.

So I got a rock that I want to move. I take my stick, I jam it underneath the rock. There's got to be another rock that I pull the stick down on that pops the rock up. So if you're on a teeter-totter, do they have teeter-totters at the playground? The fixed point in the middle is the fulcrum. So you got to have a fulcrum. That's the rule. Otherwise it's not a lever. That means that my stick that I'm using as my lever has to touch and put pressure on the fulcrum. That never happens in a living human being with normal healthy joints. Bones don't touch. If bones don't touch, you cannot have a lever. The perception is that bones do touch when we move and they don't, because if they did, there would be a tremendous amount of heat that would have to be released with movement. That heat and pressure would destroy the cartilage in the bones very quickly. There's also arguably the most extreme amount of pain associated with such a thing. Having experienced it firsthand, if you have bony contact between two bones as the joint moves, it hurts a lot. You don't ever wonder. There's always a space. There's always a fluid space in a joint, like synovial joints. The synovial fluid is always between the bones. And there's decent evidence for this actually. I wanna say it's a Japanese study that was done in 1980, and they took fresh cadaver joints. They just took them, like took a hip joint, cut it out of the cadaver and tried to approximate the bones, keeping the joint intact and they could not make them touch. And there's several mechanisms that are in play to prevent them from touching. So if they don't touch, there's no fulcrum. If there's no fulcrum, then there's no lever. If there's no levers, then you're probably alive and healthy.

Yeah, and then you've got to think about where the placement is on that point of contact, okay? So what happens to a foot when I'm trying to go forward but I can't shift my center of gravity forward over the foot, but the whole body is moving forward over the foot? What does the foot do? What do the toes look like under those circumstances? So that's a shrug.

No, no, no. If she was to descend into a full split squat, how far do you think the second would turn to the right?

OK, thank you.

No, I think you're okay with that representation, but we were going from the position where you were saying that you would have bent ischium into ER and we needed to promote an IR representation into the pelvis. So I want to drive IR from the ground up into the pelvis. And so that's why the lower bleak sit becomes useful.

Yeah, yeah. I just wanted to clarify things in my head. So thank you.

I appreciate you all being here.

So that would be why a sprinter would have an easier time getting into a cut, because it's like a... So hang on, when you say something like that, it's going to depend on what is the angle of attack to the ground?

Yeah, so they have a different strategy than the pylons do, right?

So oftentimes you'll find that maybe you're not capturing foot cues effectively, therefore you're not going to be able to superimpose the internal rotation on top of external rotation as you would in an exercise, so you have to give them a little bit of help. And so this is where the manual therapies come in. And so we did a demonstration on the foot model as to how you're going to position the hand, how you're going to manipulate the foot to get this middle propulsive representation and propagate internal rotation up the system. And so we went through that so you get a nice little demo. However, I would also refer you to the YouTube video. In fact, after you watch this video, go straight to YouTube and watch the entire mobilization of the foot and then the manipulation as it propagates up the system. So you actually see how we actually get a return of internal rotation all the way up into the hip joint. So thank you, Ian, for this. I'm going to help a lot of people with that.

Right? You have to sift through all the crap so you understand what crap is. Good morning. Happy Wednesday. I have neuro coffee in hand and it is perfect. All right. Today is Wednesday. That means tomorrow is Thursday. Tomorrow is 6 a.m. Coffee and Coaches conference call. As usual, grab yourself a cup of coffee. Join us for some great Q&A with some great people. We are in the 90s as far as how many of these we've done over the last couple of years. So we're getting pretty good at it, so please join us. Digging into today's Q&A. This is a conversation I had with Ryan. Ryan had some questions about sort of how to be successful in the fitness industry. The thing you have to kind of realize about this, the way this works is you're going to find your own way. If the desire is great enough, and if you're following your strengths, you're going to do really, really well, and you're going to find your own path. And that's the only way. And so this is a conversation about how to go about that and how to understand this process. It's not about a cookbook that you can follow and say, oh, do this, do this, do this, because it's not going to work for you. The thing you have to understand is you've got to find your own way. So this is a really good conversation for anybody that's in any industry. It doesn't really matter. But if you're young in any industry, they're all the same. Everybody gets to go through the same crap as we would say to get there. And so you just have to understand that you're going to find your own way, hang in there, embrace the struggle as I am fond of saying. So I hope you find this one useful. If you'd like to participate in a 15-minute consultation, please go to askbillhartman at gmail.com, askbillhartman at gmail.com. Put '50-minute consultation' in the subject line so we don't delete it. Please include your question in the email. We'll arrange that at our mutual convenience. Everybody have an outstanding Wednesday. I will see you tomorrow morning, 6 a.m. Coffee and Coaches Conference Go.

Right, and now think about which clients would probably benefit from that the most that would have a greater potential for that middle range. Ian knows the answer. He just threw up the big.

Right. If I'm trying to do this and I'm lying on the side with my knees together, is that just going to make my life a lot harder? I don't know. Will that potentially narrow the space I need at the pelvis?

You understand?

Oh, you're so sweet. Thank you.

Okay. Is she eye-arring into the ground? Yes. Okay. Which way, if we're just talking about her left foot, which way is her spine orienting to get her foot down?

You see it? Yeah. Yeah. It's just like you're spotting a dude on a bench press, right? And then it's on his chest. Done. It's all the same, right? Right? He ER'd to get the bar down to his chest, right? But now he can't, he can't compress enough. Okay.

You ever see ballet class? Another bar? Another bar? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay, so here's what they do. They throw their foot up on the bar and then they turn their body relative to their foot.

No, I haven't.

And then you would know, but you would know this because you would also see a change in the access to joint range of motion, right? you would see the changes there. That's why you have to monitor these things. As you're moving people through a training program, you have to have some representation. So you know, it's like, ooh, am I making them, are they becoming too concentrically oriented? Right? Cause you're training them to do that, but I can overshoot it and it becomes interference.

So if you're a wide ISA and you're going into the split squat, you'll see the right leg or the front leg collapse inward. And then with the back leg, they have that lack of hip extension. They won't be able to get down. They'll have to just kind of turn out to create an ER.

Under what circumstance could I possibly move my pelvis into a posterior orientation and not fall backwards?

Okay. It's not a line. It creates a space in four dimensions. All right, so you have to look at this from a shape standpoint. So what shape are you really looking at when you see the little Chrissy cross helical angles?

It's not. In what direction did it go? Posterior orientation relative to what? Relative to what? You see, it's like, I just said posterior orientation and I did that. And you go, well, that's not posterior orientation because I didn't move the sacrum. But see, you didn't make the point that you were talking about relative to the sacrum. I was just talking about relative to the vertical. Right? So again, what's our point of reference? If we don't have a frame of reference, we have no idea what we're talking about.

Enhance it.

All right.

It's turning, right? Okay. Do you understand? Yes. Okay, cool. So if both sides of the spine are flexing, what does that mean that the spine is doing? Is it internally rotating or is it externally rotating? If one side is ER, then both sides are doing the same thing now. So both sides are flexing. Yeah, it still should be ER. It is ER. It is okay. Yeah. Yeah. For sure. From in right side lying and you're rolling back into the left. Do not lead with the scapula. Good morning. Happy Friday. I have no coffee in hand and it is perfect. All right. Very busy Friday. Very busy weekend. It's always busiest right before you go on vacation. So we're going on vacation next week. So I'll stuff some stuff coming up for you next week. So hang in there for that. Two weeks out from the intense of 15. Very exciting. So we got a lot of stuff going on. November's a busy, busy month. So let's dig into today's Q&A. And this is with Ian. He works with a lot of soccer players and he was doing some of the rolling activities that we often talk about with a minor technical glitch that was creating some interference in his ability to recapture some of the relative motions. And so what we did is we actually kind of talked through what would be turning and then the same concepts that we'd use in rolling. And so we turn and rotate differently in high force conditions that we do in low force conditions where we're trying to recapture relative motion. And so basically that's what we broke down in a very, very short segment that I think will be useful for a lot of people. So thank you for bringing this up, Ian. If you would like to participate in a 15 minute consultation, please go to askbillhartmanedgemail.com, askbillhartmanedgemail.com, and put 15 minute consultation in the subject line so I don't delete it. We'll arrange that at our mutual convenience. Everyone have an outstanding weekend. I guess I'll technically see you probably in about a week or so as we come back from vacation. So everybody have a great weekend.

So the ability to acquire the position would require just enough external rotation to be able to acquire the position, right? Not so much that they can't produce force into the ground.
