Yeah.

Yeah.

Okay. So we're talking about the yield, right? So the connective tissue behavior. So it's where do you want the delay to occur? So think about, so you have to think about the shape change of the pelvis as I'm going through middle propulsion. I'm assuming an internal rotation representation, folks at home, right? So the internal rotation representation. So that's moving into that position. So this is going to move me into a nutated sacral position. I'll get eccentric orientation posteriorly. And then I have one side that has to move slower than the other. And that's where the delayed representation is going to be because of the shape change. So I have an ilium that is basically compressing the base of the sacrum. Okay. And so the delay is going to move from the base of the sacrum towards the apex of the sacrum because that's where I have the connective tissues available that can now distribute the energy for the yield. Okay. It's got to slow it down. So those tissues will expand. They're going to absorb energy because the next thing that's going to happen is I've got to snap those babies back into an overcoming representation to push the internal rotation into the ground.

Say it to her. Help him out. In the upper part. It's top down. It's top down, right? OK. So segment by segment. L1, L2, L3. Now think about this for a second. Where else might I see that exact same turn?

This is why I like asking these questions. Yeah. We're talking about like that brief moment in time. I understand where you're going there, boss. OK. So what's become apparent to me is even though I kind of understand why we would be chasing middle propulsion in a bunch of different situations, whether it's like going from you've regained external rotation to you need to apply force into the ground because you're human, or if it's somebody who wants to weight train and you're trying to make sure that you're not creating a late propulsive bias, that you're right. My question regards queuing middle propulsion, like getting people to feel it and maybe specifically Well, we could talk about the context, but like when I saw your video for the sprinter and you were doing a middle propulsive chop where you were going down to the elevated foot, right?

What I tend to do in that situation is I will put them in a staggered stance. So if you're leaning on your left arm, you might have like the right foot forward, left foot back orientation.

Okay. You got to do that first.

Yeah, I'm a white. We're just looking at you. It's like, we don't need to measure you. It's like, you probably got the biggest bench on the call and, you know, and a better kettlebell swing. This is the stuff that you kind of know that you can't express sometimes, you know? Like your discoveries are like, oh, now I understand.

I had a question in the context of someone in an in-game right interior oblique orientation and they've got impingement or pain on that right hip.

I'll back up here so I have leverage so I can get the mid-tarsal and the first mid-tarsal into the right position as well.

What if you are in a situation where you figure out you feel like you know what you need to learn or what you need to get, credential-wise? Do you have any type of process on how to get there without having to kind of dig through all the stuff that's not so great? Because at least I feel like within our industry it's challenging to navigate through the not so great stuff to find the great stuff.

I'll say this for the future. I'll think of a really good one for you. So my question is about strokes and the pelvic floor. Like CVA stroke? I know there's a lot of weakness in the diaphragm a lot of times, and I assume there's a lot of weakness in the pelvic floor. I was just basically wondering how that would factor into your thinking. But it's something I've been noticing more lately on the first thing affecting a lot.

So pain along there.

Um, partially.

Gotcha. So tape the foot and just give her a chance, a fighting chance of getting the foot orientation.

Okay, but then, that would just be kind of both anterior and posterior compression now, not one or the other. I know that both exist, but I know it's a bias.

Yes.

Right. So they're trying to push harder, right? Into the ground. Okay. So it's an IR compensatory strategy. They're trying to create more IR. So if I see it on the way down, what do you think that would mean if they're trying to push harder to the ground on the way down? What if they didn't do that? What would the squat look like?

Okay. It has to, as I said, you're constantly slowing down. You're delaying that side all the way through middle.

It's like, okay, you know where you got to go. It's like, this is not a matter of coaching technique. This is a matter of like, okay, you just bumped into a constraint that we have to resolve first. Now we go back and now that maybe the technique is perfectly fine.

So would you say that then someone who's ended up in a sway back position is much further, further along as far as the compression is concerned? Absolutely.

Okay, I'm guessing that you wouldn't be able to access early, right?

Okay.

I hate hearing that. Okay, when you sit on a saddle, if it's a Western saddle or if it's like one of the smaller, like the equestrian style saddles where they're up on it, like they stand up in the stirrups and stuff like that, they have to stand in an external rotation or they're sitting in an extreme external rotation, okay? Especially with bigger horses.

Right. Because he doesn't want to move it. So how do you make it look like ER when you don't want to ER the shoulder? Okay. Um, are you allowed to lay hands on him? So let's think about where you've got concentric orientation. Where do you gotta go? Where's the big money? You gotta stick your fingers in somewhere. Where do you need expansion? Where do you need expansion to get ER?

Yeah.

And as soon as I have gained that mechanical advantage, I have lifted you off the ground so you can no longer push into the ground.

Yeah, double-leg symmetrical.

Here's the mistake. You called it a glute bridge. So right away, you're thinking muscle, glute max, all I gotta do is get you to feel a glute max. When the reality is, it's a little bit more complex than that because if you try to do a bridge where you're lifting the hips off the table without internal rotation capabilities, those are the people that go, do you feel your butt? And they are squeezing it together like nobody's business. Like if you stuck $100 bill in there, you're never getting it back. And then they ER the proximal femur, their knees try to separate, right? And they're getting a really strong glute contraction. So it's a glute bridge, but you're not achieving what you intend to achieve, which is to maintain that measure of internal rotation. Remember, they're both there at the same time. It's not an either or. It's an ER representation. You're moving from the ER representation towards internal rotation. When you lift up your hips off the table in that bridge, you're moving closer to internal rotation. If you don't have internal rotation capabilities, then you would ramp up all of those ER muscles in an attempt to try to bring the legs together at the same time. And then that's where you get the cramp. That's why the people that complain about hamstring stuff is like, anytime that they're trying to lift their hips off the ground, they don't have any IR with them. It's all ER stuff.

By a long shot it would, wouldn't it? Yes. Okay. So that becomes a money muscle in this regard when we're trying to untwist the tibia. I see. So in what position would that be an ideal scenario to untwist that tibia? What would you like to do there? You have to have a fixed point. You have to have a moving point, right? Where do you want to fix it?
