Hang on. You ever see an outrigger canoe?

So I don't have a specific patient to attach this question to context-wise. But one of the athletic trainers here was just kind of asking me yesterday about one of her basketball players that has had what they've diagnosed as insertional Achilles tendonitis, and it's been going on for a year now with really no improvement.

I see.

Matt, you're killing me. I was doing so well and now I'm all sick to my stomach. You mentioned strength and muscular development. Here's one of the really cool things about hypertrophy. You don't need relative motion to develop hypertrophy. But if you want to keep them healthy, if you want to move well and be comfortable and be happy and all that kind of stuff, but see, this is one of the distinguishing characteristics of the body building side of training is that the exposure that the muscle experiences during the activities has a very low degree of relative motion available because the excursion has to take place within the muscle tissue itself, otherwise it doesn't get exposed to the tension. So remember, relative motion feels good. There's not tension in it, right? And tension is one of the primary signaling elements of hypertrophy.

Yeah, I'm trying to think of an activity. So it may be like a 60-degree incline where I'm

Absolutely not. This is my call. I'm kidding. Go ahead, of course.

Yeah.

Yeah, and it wasn't because I did it.

Yeah, she's a wide, so she's just way over there.

When you first start pulling down on the weight.

Absolutely. Absolutely. Yeah. So they're just, they need force production.

Yeah, one more time. I got a noise in the background.

You're just chasing the number, but I'm not a big fan.

I did. Yeah. When you're just... Yeah. Sorry. I get really excited when the light bulb goes off.

All right. And the thing you were talking about with TEA, it's awesome to visualize. It's something. The knee is some, yeah, it is a pelvis, but we actually get like a, in mid, we just get it to face forward, just like the sacrum. So, all right.

Right. If you're reducing the need for them to pass their center of gravity over that book by doing the step two, therefore they don't have to magnify the delay.

Well, again, so the way I think about it, if your left leg is forward and it's collapsing inward, I would think that you're pushed forward on that left, your ER, and so then you have nowhere to go, but to orient into an aisle.

Two euros.

Yeah.

All right, and because I heard you say, if I put left foot back and left hand load on a Camparini, because of the left hand load, I would still have to push my right leg like IR top down to prevent the right turn.

It could be two to three hours.

Yeah. Cause my gradient goes this way.

We can hang on, we can still talk about that, because we have force absorption and force production in both scenarios. As I descend, I have to absorb energy. Same principle. If you're having trouble acquiring position on the descent, then drop it to the choking. If I'm having trouble coming out of the bottom, I have to take the force or the energy that I've absorbed, change the shape and start driving it back into the ground. So standing up from the squat is proximal to distal.

Have a conversation with Ian. Because Ian's really into the spine these days. So, as the spine turns away to the right, I get a side bend in the opposite direction that it's turning. You understand? Yes. Okay. And I don't care. It's turning. So it closes the space. So I'm turning to the right, side bending to the left by its lots. Non-neutral, non-neutral mechanics. And even though I just said the 'N word', it made me a little sick to my stomach. Thanks a lot.

Yeah, right, because one hip is relatively up, one's relatively down, so there's more of this axis going on than with the narrow.

wrist and all that yet.

We're halfway there. Then you have to create the term. You could literally just do backwards sled drags and address this. He's going backwards. You do the right step, left foot even, right step, left foot even. As he recaptures internal rotation on the other side, you can start to create the reciprocal step backwards and then create the turn from side to side.

I'm going to give you a kettlebell and you only get to use one hand. You're going to start with a bilateral symmetrical stance. Okay. So it's in your left hand. And you're doing the kettlebell swing with your left hand in a bilateral symmetrical stance. And then I say, as you're doing this, 'Alec, take a baby step forward with your right foot, then take another baby step forward with your right foot, then take another baby step forward with your right foot.' And eventually you have to start bringing your feet in, because the step length gets too wide. You can't keep stepping out sideways—you can only go so far. You go like this, you go like this, you go like this, you go like this, you go like this. Eventually you're in line. So it's the same thing: okay, how many angles can you do a chop? Do you realize that a chop is a lunge?

OK.

Good morning. Happy Thursday. I have neurocopy in hand and it is perfect.
