Yeah. That's. And I guess I'm looking at the clock here as two minutes. I guess I just want to add this in there. One more question. Like so many different athletes are like what they call, you know, muscle driven athletes, very concentric, you know, driven, good accelerators, but not very good bouncers. How does that play into like training? Well, what's the goal? I guess if you were to look at a weak link for a muscle driven, really good accelerator right out of the blocks or good team sport athlete, they're not very bouncy. So maybe you work more towards what you're saying, the connective end of this.

So I'm left foot forward and then right is back with it on the toes. The toes are touching the ground.

Right, so just to check my understanding, in this scenario, the soft tissue we're talking about like endomysium, epimysium, and then like tendons and stuff like that, is that what we're actually talking about? Say that again.

I don't think they'll pick up an expansive strategy. I think what you'll see is that it just didn't compress as much because unless you've got somebody that's walking around with their butt cheeks sticking way back in relative to the other one.

All right. So I've seen a couple of clients in clinic. I'm doing an internship for chiropractic school at Logan University.

Okay. So, let's talk about some deficits. What are we still looking at from a deficit perspective with her?

That's where my statement comes from, where I feel like the shape, if I just picture without considering muscle activity initially, the shape seems to have to carry over.

Right. So then on the right side, as you get closer towards end game and you start to move forward on the right, right, towards Are you going to pick up a little bit? You're probably picking up a little bit more off the fifth met head at that point.

There you go. Yes. That is correct, sir. Okay. Here's the concern: if you do that really, really fast, now you're going to bump into something that you may not want to bump into at a high rate of speed.

Which way?

Cool. So you're on point. You get it.

Okay. And so if you've ever done, I don't know when everybody calls them bowlers, I call them bowlers lunge, like a bowler's lunge or a curtsy lunge or something like that. Okay. So this is preventing the center of gravity from going forward, but yet you still have to move the foot into a middle propulsive representation.

Okay. Well, but I have. Oh, cool. Yeah. And they tend to run. They tend to run a lot. So, think about this for a second. Take a high-arch foot. Yeah. Okay. Somebody that would be accused of having a very high arch. And I want you to run on it without internal rotation, okay? And I want you to keep running on it without internal rotation. And I want you to keep pushing down on that foot through that arch as hard as you can, because you're training for a marathon—everybody has to run a marathon once in their life to prove that they don't die. But what would a stress fracture of the first metatarsal represent under this circumstance?

Yeah.

Am I going to need more internal rotation than that?

You get it? Do you see that the axial skeleton is trainable separate from the extremities?

Alex is wearing the same shirt that he wore on the first day that he was at IFAST. There you go. He messes up a little; my buddy Conor Ryan also went there. Okay. Same foot cues on the right side.

It's very flat. It's very flat.

What would stop me from producing downforce? So then the answer to your question is like, okay, when should I not do this? So the answer to your question then is when would I not utilize this drill effectively? What's the interference? The interference is the inability to produce the IR, which means I've got too much ER represented. So this might be a pelvic orientation. This might be a bony adaptation that is preventing me from capturing the IR position.

Yes, on one of them for sure. The other one, I can't remember.

And then you change direction and then the club starts going downhill, right? Downspun. That is a lady yard representation. So when you look at the follow through on the right side, great representation of play.

Bill, would you ever use, on a thoracic ring, you would compress the inferior aspect of the thoracic ring and with the opposite hand, try to open the superior part of the thoracic ring, just as you talked about. So that you're not, you know, compressing everything in. So you get the right state back, as I'm compressing the lower part, I'm opening the superior part of the thoracic ring, so I'm not just shoving everything in.

Okay, so when the video that I was referencing initially was your left and right squat video.

I'm with you. I'm with you.

Okay.

No, no. They're moving at the same time into a loaded position. So again, if you start in an even all fours and you step forward with your right hand, your right hip would be moving towards a loaded position of external rotation and abduction. Okay. And then the right arm would be reaching forward into a loaded position of external rotation. That's how you take a step forward when you're crawling; you have to turn the axial skeleton away from the side that you're reaching with.

Yeah.

You're a therapist, right? So you show him. You guide the knee, you guide the hip. You show him what you want him to do. And then you monitor the feet to make sure he maintains his foot control. And if you can't do that, then you might have to do something else first.

Watch the video backwards.

Yeah. Because APL is no longer limiting that movement. So it's eccentrically oriented. That means the hand is twisted farther into pronation than the distal radius is. So your pistol, your pistol tests here, your apple test tests the hand relative to here.
