Is that too deep?

So let's use that one, okay? Teach it to me really well.

All right. Great. Good to talk to you, young man. I will probably see you next week, right?

Everything right. You could do everything right.

Okay, so can I answer your question with a question?

So then I can imagine that if we take this idea and we sort of lateralize the thinking towards like what are the external constraints that can also help us achieve this expansion under load, you could consider like using a heel elevation something like a heel elevation to create that expansion somewhere else, which is why people can ultimately hit depth maybe a little bit more easily.

Right.

Sure.

Okay, in the cut. So at the very last moment of going into a cut, the tissues become stiff. So I have this yield, yield, yield, yield, yield, less yield, more stiff, less yield, more stiff, less yield, more stiff, stiff, and then change direction. You see how they kind of go with that? So it's just like ERs and IRs. When I talk about ERs and IRs, it's like IR is superimposed on top of the ER. Well, guess what? The yielding behaviors and the overcoming behaviors have an interaction as well. So it's never absolutely one. It's never absolutely the other. What we have to understand is that we have these gradated relationships where it depends because the rate changes as I'm moving. At some point in time, the early phase of a movement might be a lot of yielding. So as I go into the cut, there's a lot of yielding at the front end of that, but there's going to be a turnaround point where I have to actually stop time, change direction, and create the release of that energy to come out of the cut. But to do that, I have to stop, which is this incredible amount of stiffness. So when now we're back to like max P stuff, right? There's always a max P in everything. Even if it's like a yielding action, because if I'm pushing into the ground or I'm pushing against an object, there has to be a point where my propulsive effort is maximal. And then I'm not talking about like maximal, like ultimate maximum. I'm talking about for that activity. Like max P and walking is not the same as max P in sprinting. Like force outputs are like ridiculously different.

You're going to come closer together.

Awesome. All right. Great call, young man. Thank you, thank you. I will see you on the Coffee and Coaches call as usual, and I'll see you in IFASU, okay? There you go. Great job. Love the mug. Well, we'll take that. Have a good day. Happy Thursday. I have neuro coffee in hand and it is perfect. By the way, this is Stellar this morning. I almost threw an internal party.

All right. And those injuries that happened where my body would just feel something on that right side. And then over the course of the day, it'll just lock me up to the right, give me a lot of pain on my back, lower back, right side. And it won't allow me to let go of the muscle. The muscle is just contracted. Is that normal?

No, hey, your citizen night. We're not that old. No, that's pretty impressive. I mean, seriously, it's like, granted, it's not when he was like 22 years old or anything like that. But no, you went 14, 6, 10 years ago.

So that that almost just sets her up for that anterior orientation, just like kind of let her body weight fall forward.

Yeah. Yeah.

So, do you want to promote a reduction in relative motions? Do you want to promote an anti-orientation?

Okay, so you're minimizing the capability of getting something to the finished representation by having so many things to do. And so, or would it be better, it would be better to get all one project done and then all the next project done and then all the next project done and then all the next project done. You get more finished by the end of the two weeks than if you try to do a little bit of each. So that's kind of what we're talking about. So you have a fixed amount of time. You've got fixed windows of exposure. And then you have to say, okay, what is the most important thing that we have to get done? Like what is the linchpin, if you will, of this athlete's performance. Like if I get this to the point where it is optimized, what is the greatest adaptation that I need to seek? And that's where I would spend a majority of my initial time because it's going to have the greatest impact on the outcome. It doesn't mean that I ignore everything else, it just means that there will be a priority that if I don't spend enough time on it, I will not get any desired outcome because the efforts will be insufficient in regards to the concentration of the effect. Right. So if you do one set of max effort work, one set, there's an attitude that's associated with that. The question is, is that sufficient? Is that sufficient to raise that physical quality? Or is it enough to maintain it? Or is it just going to slow the decline? So those are your basic options, right? I'm going to raise it. I'm going to maintain it. Or it's going to slowly decline over time. And I control that. And so when you're organizing this, you have to consider like, okay, and you run in the same cycle that we do, like we'll get somebody for like six weeks, eight weeks, right? Like we're squeezing them in between a season or something like that. And so a lot of the training literature is associated with long-term training adaptations as far as its organization is concerned. And so you have to take that in consideration. It's like, well, how much time do I have? What's the most important thing? If I got a kid for a year, I got lots of time. I can start to spread this stuff out to a certain degree. But you'll always have something that would be primary, something that might be on maintenance, and then something that you're trying to prevent the decline of. So let me give you an example. Let's just say you develop somebody's oxidative capacity for field sport. And one of those elements would be the cardiac side of development where I need to assure that he can recover between outputs, right?

Awesome. So you can see where your head is relative to the door, right? Okay. So here's what I want you to do. I want you to make like a Barbie foot, like a stiletto heel on the right side. You're going to go way up onto the ball of your foot, just on the right side. Okay. So you should feel yourself go up. Awesome. And you see your head go up towards the door. Awesome. Okay. Come back down. Okay. Now don't let your knee bend. Don't let your knee bend. Okay. I want you to do the exact same thing with your foot, but don't change your height. And I want you to tell me where you have to bend to stay at the same height and elevate the heel at the same time.

The guts are still up.

Yeah.

From a timing standpoint, like if they have the expansion available to them, will the outlet push up first is kind of just like a default strategy in most cases.

Yeah. Okay. Cool. So just so I make sure I got all the pieces in the right order and they have the right relationship from a causal perspective. So the soleus being more medial is basically just the best design as a brake for eversion regarding the...

Yeah, okay.

Do you see, you see me?

Doesn't mean that you can't lift them in a limited range. It just means that you have, like again, this is where you, this is where you become the good coach. And you say, this is a better choice of exercise for you. So now you start thinking it's like, well, where can I, where am I going to do these? Where can I put this person in space? Where's their internal rotation? Where do they have it?

Really thought.

All right. You're in a bit of a pickle. Yeah. Okay. You have a very low adaptability, right? So you have dehydrated people, right? So we always talk about fluids and stuff like that and water and you don't have a lot of water to play with here. Okay. So you're a PT then I'm assuming you said patients. Okay. Cool. Um, in school, what did they say to never do with a lumbar stenosis patient? Extension. Okay. So that's an internal rotation that's fine. Right? Why? Why do you not do that?

What happens? Your knee hyperextends.

Well, it's 881 miles wide across I-10.

Okay.
