Yeah. Is.

If they're going into fast activities, I guess so, yeah.

So football player, soccer player, whatever, okay? And so we initially develop his cardiac capacity, resting heart rate goes down, recovery times are shortened, et cetera. But then I have to skew towards higher force production. I have to go towards some cross-sectional area development or something like that, that would be interference to the oxidative element. So then the question is, okay, how much of that do I need? How much can I allow this oxidative component to decline? Right? How can I maintain that in the midst of all this? And so what I might do is I make sure that he has this oxidative capacity and then like every two or three weeks, we do a couple of days of concentrated load of the cardiac development stuff. So it either maintains or prevents the decline of that physical quality. What in the midst of knowing fully well that it would interfere normally with my force production stuff. Okay? potentially, but I'm only doing it over a very small window. So the degree of interference becomes minimized. Right?

Like crunching through my spine.

The guts are the club head. Okay. Yes. Wherever that club head is, that's where the guts are. So when you talk about swing plane, club face position, especially at the top, you see something that is less than desirable. They're not directing their guts in the right direction because the club head and the guts are doing the exact same thing. So when you see like somebody that's, so they drop their swing plane and it gets flat, okay. You got somebody that can't create the delay strategy. So all they're doing is they're orienting themselves in this direction and it flattens the swing plane. Do you see it?

Do you ever sit on you and you can't breathe?

I'm having trouble. So this is the exact same thing that I was just talking about with Manuel, okay? So you're setting up a position to allow this behavior to sequence itself. So we set somebody up right before the second pull, pulling off a block. So I'm going to put the outlet in a very specific position. I'm going to try to acquire a position before I pull on the bar that allows the AP to be there. As I apply pressure to the ground in that position, I don't want to squeeze from the top first. I want to make sure that I'm pressurizing from the bottom up. So I got to figure out where in space I got to put the pelvis for that to happen. If I start too low, I've already compressed them, and I'm already pushing them down into the ground. I got to get the hips high enough that I have an outlet that is pushing upward. You see it?

It is a, it is a, so, so think about like a flexor house as long as, uh, how it goes underneath the sustentaculum.

Okay.

Yeah. Yeah. Okay. Yeah.

It's a Y for mid-long.

Late IR is pushing into the ground.

To put more pressure on the posterior aspect of like those vertebral segments. Okay.

No, you get a bunion.

Yeah, that's pretty big. It's almost as big as your back, right? Has anybody ever seen Dale from behind with his shirt on? He's got a tattoo of five numbers that go across his upper back, because he's got his own zip code. He's so big. Dale, did that cover your question, though?

Question.

Okay. What happens at the stopping point?

It was interesting because his athletic trainer had looked at him the day before. I asked what he saw because they requested I look at him really quick before he tried to go out and practice. It was one of those things where you always talk about being able to speak both languages. From the athletic training standpoint, he saw what he called an outflare on the right side and tried a muscle energy technique that wasn't effective—when remeasured, it didn't resolve any of the symptoms. I thought that was cool because outflare corresponds to ER orientation, but I guess it just involves having a slightly different solution. It was one of those moments that felt kind of cool.

That's what's happening. So literally, they're already moving into that late representation because of the forced demands are so great. So they reduce the relative motions almost immediately and they're lowering themselves into the push-up. And you've seen this, right? The people that do push-ups like that, right? So all they're doing is creating an anterior orientation and you see their chin, right? They use their chin to do push-ups. And then the booty, and then the booty sticking up in the air. Unless they, unless they, unless they grab the $100 bill with their behind, right? And squeeze that closed.

Is it attached to anything? The whole body. Okay, so if I'm trying to create a focal shape change, like a very targeted shape change, I have to put you in a position that has limited motion where I don't want the motion to take place if I'm trying to emphasize an element. So I was talking about the femur. Okay. I'm trying to promote a shape change in the proximal femur. And I put you in a position where the load would be distributed. What's the difference between prone and supine? In regards to like the posterior elements of the hip and the actual skeleton.

So in that case, it's better to play the long game and teach them to maintain the relative motions approximately throughout the day, twice a day, that kind of deal. And just play the long game, not just trying to, you know, long duration crank on their knee, whatnot, you know.

Yeah, it doesn't mean that I might not have to work on sacral base expansion on a wide AIC, because they have it—it's just a smaller representation than it would be on somebody that would be a narrow AIC that has a much stronger bias under that circumstance. But when you talk about the process of moving the center of gravity through space in regards to controlling forces, we know that we're going to see this oblique orientation. I know where the center of gravity is going to go. I know where they're going to end up, because I know that because there's only so many options that are available.

But the toe is going to stay down longer. That's what's going to create the bunion representation there.

Because you don't have to get the center of gravity far in front of that affected leg.

OK, so the issue that you're going to run into there is you're going to increase the rotation of the pelvis to the right, most likely. Because, again, they would have to eccentrically orient everything that's internally rotating the hip under this circumstance, right? Which is very difficult to do in a complex movement like that.

OK. Where do you live?

When you say that, what do you mean?

That's an early representation of IR as I descend. So we're talking about left leg early.

Okay. I was forced at gunpoint to take piano lessons when I was eight. But when you take piano lessons, you don't know how to play piano day one. You just don't know anything. And then you learn something. And then you learn something else. And then it's additive, right. And so over time, you learn to play the piano. And it goes from a state where you are very, very conscious in what you were trying to do to a point where it's very, very unconscious. So the late great Eddie Van Halen, playing a guitar solo was not thinking. Because of the experiences that he had, the learning that took place, and then where in the brain all of this stuff takes place, it's kind of like you don't think to drive a car anymore, do you. The car becomes a physical extension of you, actually. It is literally part of you, which is why you don't have to think about it, because it's in a different part of the brain than when you learned it. Because when you first learn to drive a car, you've got to pay attention to the road. You've got to put your hands at ten or two. You've got two pedals to deal with. You've got cars coming, actually. You've got to read street signs and all this kind of stuff. And now you're driving with your knee, talking illegally on your cell phone, eating a sandwich and adjusting the radio with your elbow. You know, because it's just a totally different place. And so again, it's like those kind of things change relatively quickly. Structural constraints don't, right. And in your archetype has a limit. as to what is possible. And then anything that you've superimposed to a significant degree that has promoted a significant adaptation can shift adaptations in one direction to such a degree that they're not changeable anymore. Or they only go in one direction, which would be degenerative, which is why you see like degenerative changes in spines and things like that. Arthritis in knees, right. So when you talk about like, okay, I make these immediate changes but they don't stick. It's like, okay, cool. So you're influencing the so-called functional constraints consistently. That's important because it's gonna keep the adaptations from going so far in one direction and may protect you or extend the duration of what you're capable of doing. But you picked up heavy things for how many years now.

All right. Awesome. Yeah. You should have gone straight forward, not gone to the right.
