Correct. Generally speaking.

The slide drag would be more.

I was trying to bring the safe release back and that was easier without the heel lift.

The late, the IR is dissipating, the early, the IR is increasing.

Yeah. Oh, okay. All right.

Yeah, I mean, these athletes tend to be, I don't know, kind of weak. So, I don't, I mean, either they have a really low potential, or I think it's more of a gradient issue. Well, OK.

Yes, sir. How are you?

Well, like start to finish kind of a thing. A couple seconds. I was going to say less than two seconds probably. Yeah. OK. So how many pitches does my pitcher need to throw?

No. I've only got the running footage of her. I did not have a squat picture.

Okay. If I push against the front of the pelvis here, it's below the axis of rotation of the pelvis. So it starts to do that. You see how it goes forward?

So Bill, for him to get the internal rotation, since he doesn't have that shape change, he'll have to bend his knees or arch through the mid back.

I'm surprised she doesn't have one already.

All right. You see the difference? So one is literally in a position where they cannot release the energy. Like they're literally going down to hold their center of gravity inside their base of support. They will not spring back. The other one has room to move down and back up because they can translate their center of gravity forward and back more. One is changeable, one is not. The one has a gradient, one does not. Do you see the difference?

Sacrum.

OK. And quick follow up, because I'm glad Manuel asked that question, because I'm OCD in every sense of the question.

I just want to make sure that that was as simple as which one do you pick?

So since I moved, I had to go through all my books.

And then like the same twist at the knee. So just really quick, basically just laid him on his pelvis and then manually untwisted the knee. Hip pain was greatly reduced to the point that he felt like he could practice.

Yeah, yeah.

I've got a pretty good plan for trying to remedy it. She's heavily anteriorly oriented, which is not helping, other things going on.

Is that science? Yeah, that's what we call science. It's like you hypothesize. You're going to take as much information as you have available to you and formulate a profile for this individual. You're going to say, I think this is going to be the influence. Sometimes you're going to be right, and sometimes you're going to be wrong. But you ran the experiment, and that's what guides your process. And then you know what? When we have this conversation 25 years from now, when I'm sitting in the old folks home and you're helping me move around with the tennis balls on the end of my walker, you'll say, 'Hey, remember that coffee call where we were talking about running the experiment and actually figuring stuff out as you go instead of knowing ahead of time what's going to happen?' It's like, 'Yeah, that was really good.' No, you just have to run the experiment.

What kind of a deep squat are we doing? Are we doing a deep squat with 100 kilos on your back? Or are you just sitting down into a deep squat?

Yeah, yeah. And so, yeah, especially for the population that I deal with, you know, I was just, you know, thinking about ways to get that kind of early IR, you know, so that they can do more efficient extensions, more efficient pulls, you know, and also just get into better squat positions.

The what?

So you create the delay. It literally goes all the way up through that extremity into your axial skeleton, doesn't it?

Well, what they're trying to do is to acquire more compensatory ER so they can have access to a space in front of them.

So they're twisting the femur instead of getting the pelvic shape change.

So in that situation, they might have some type of proximal femur or external rotation twist as well. Is that what you're saying?

I wanted to ask you about the right to left sled drag. When you said you step next to the foot, not together. Because crossing over would depend on how much internal rotation is available. But when someone is pushed to the right, they probably don't have enough internal rotation on the left to step over. You can use this diagnostically. When they're doing the step together, look at their feet to determine whether they have left hip internal rotation based on where the left foot lands. It will land slightly in front of the direction they're facing. They'll step out and then slide the foot here instead of here. They might accidentally drag in a diagonal.

Yeah.
