Right hand golfer backswing. If we're looking at the left side of the pelvis, it's got to push. If I say sacrum, are we OK with that? Yes. You feel like you've got the anatomical understanding. And then if you've been hanging out with Kay, I don't think you could probably ignore that.

Meaning if you're in a more upright posture, sacrum, I guess, is in a more... So the bias in standing is towards nutation. Yeah. But as soon as I initiate the squat, okay, I have to move, right? So I'm going to start to move, and that's going to be actually a late representation.

Yeah, he's just turning away from it.

Sync squad. Yes, like your heels are elevated. We're trying to capture like early foot and pelvis. And then she just has like her hands on something as if someone she's just holding onto something.

Yeah. Yeah.

Okay, so you're actually compressing on the way down, which would potentially limit your excursion. Again, if you're trying to breathe in on the way up, you're actually expanding. If you could expand in all directions as you breathe in, you're reducing force production in a specific direction, so your resultant would be lesser to wherever you're pressing. You're taking force production out of the equation. You'd be dampening under that. I would question your perception—your perception might be that you're inhaling, but I would think that if you're doing a release, like throwing the ball, you're actually constricting the inflation.

Yeah, definitely been helpful.

I think so.

Yeah.

You know, it's like, here's the imaginary 500-pound barbell on your shoulders. Let me put another heavy barbell in your hands too.

Right? So if I can't direct the wave, if I can't dissipate enough energy, if I can't direct it from a coordinate standpoint to put it in the right place, OK? Jen Marcello. What's a Tommy John injury? When they blow out an elbow, what do you think that is?

Mm-hmm.

120 over 80 would be like average. That's what they compare it to. Yeah. All right. But if I increase the compressive strategy of the circulatory system, what will happen? Great. Now, let me ask you this. If I was running 400 meters flat out, would it behoove me to have high blood pressure?

Yeah.

He's got to create all this compensatory strategy.

So glad to be back. Um, well rested. So, okay. She's a female, wide ISA, like early thirties. And she really has a wide ISA, like really just can't close. And she also has asthma, right? So she's just not getting full breathing.

It was very nice of her. She's very aware. You should commend her for being on point.

Okay.

So hang on. I think you said the key word there. It's a bigger twist, right?

Yeah. Yeah. Cool. Awesome. All right. Thank you for that.

Yeah, so I don't think the strategy would change all that much because you are still emphasizing the connective tissue behavior as described, right? So the depth, and that might have something to do with it too. So think about where the hips are positioned in her dead lift relative to where she's gonna be for the counter movement, John. Cause they're not the same.

And it's okay because this is part of your evolution as a professional is that you start to accumulate the reasoning and then you start to apply. But let me offer you this. If you do something and you're not sure why you're doing it, but you think it's a good thing to do, pay attention and then see, here's the response that I got from this. And then make a note of that because that's how it works anyway. So let's just say we don't have a great representative model, but I'm a darn good observer. And I say, here's the circumstances that keep showing up. I do this activity and everybody gets better every time I do that. That's probably a good solution. You might not know why it's a good solution, right? But that might just take time and understanding. You're allowed to do that. You're allowed to do good things for people, even like I drive a car. I have no idea, other than where the gas goes, I have no idea how a car works. It's amazing to me, but I can use a car without having to know how it works, right? We do a lot of things like that and it's acceptable as long as you're not hurting people and putting people at risk, but pay attention. That's how you shift the probabilities in your favor. That's how you start to understand how things work. And then we go back and in hindsight we go, this might have happened, this might have happened. And then over time we get better and better and better. We start narrowing our reasoning and then our interventions become very targeted. And we can say, this scenario needs this type of an intervention. That's how you get better. Does that make sense?

So just stand with feet, hip width, and that kind of thing? You're upside down, but it'll still work for me. So if your weight bearing is even, let's just say you're sort of in the middle. Now, shift your whole center of gravity. Don't lose your heels, but shift your whole center of gravity as far forward as you can. Drive your pelvis forward, not just your chest and your head. You feel all that stuff on the backside starting to get active.

I have to create the condition. So you heard me say, yeah, I was talking to Max. It's like, what are the initial conditions? Okay. What position did we start from? Right. Gotcha. Okay. So I have somebody that's laying on the table. If I'm doing this on supine, I'm doing this in supine. I have somebody that's laying there. That's already getting shoved from behind on the left. Okay. I have to create the conditions that allow all this internal stuff to start moving in that direction.

Yes, because it has to do with, okay, so if I was taking a step forward, okay, just a normal step forward, I'm a normal human being, I have full relative motions, there's nothing wrong with me, I'm perfect, right? So they step forward and they go through ER, they land in early, they go through middle, they go IR, I got to get force into the ground, IR. There's the twist of the distal femur into the ground. If I center of gravity goes over the foot, I go into late. That's another ER, but it's concentric overcoming posteriorly, pushing me forward. That's this. So again, but you can see people standing in relative phases of propulsion. The farther into late that I am, the more pushed forward my center of gravity, the more everything has to turn out into your systemically because I'll have overcoming on both sides. So they're literally like the people that are standing with the, be quote unquote, Varus are just late, like late late, right? Which is why you see the representations in the feet, which is why you see the bow of the leg because the whole system is ERing there and they don't wanna fall down.

Eccentric orientation, true eccentric orientation doesn't have any tension on it. So it doesn't feel like anything. Always remember that.

Then it's not your fault then.

So what would you do if you wanted them to squat? What would you do?

I'm not against resistance training. I'm against randomly applied resistance training. It needs to be purposeful. There's a point in time for every tactic and every tool. If it arises, that's why they're useful. That's why it does help. That's why you'll see. I'll give you an example. It's like, there's a kid that was like throwing 90 miles an hour and they strength train the crap out of him. And he ended up throwing 95, 96, but you can't just say that kid did it. So it must be good for everybody. That's the, that's the mistake. Right. Yeah, you got to find out what their needs are and then provide for that because chances are, based on based on just all we got to do is look at history, they find that kid that's like 17, 18 years old with a cannon for an arm that throws 97. He's never been in the weight room. Mm-hmm because the gods turned his arm into a thunderbolt, right? As the movie goes, right? You understand what I'm saying? Just like genetically speaking, the best of the best already have these tools. We want to enhance what will improve them and then avoid what will create the interference. That's what I'm against. I'm against the random. especially in situations where people show extreme superpowers because that's who these people are. They're superhuman. We can take the good and make them so much better if we train them as a process rather than just pigeonholing them into, oh, you're a quarterback. Here's the quarterback program.

Very simple answer.
