Yeah, so I'm just, no, now you can think about it a little.

Okay. They got a big sweatshirt on. They can't see it. What would you do?

Absolutely right. I mean you're totally on point. Again, this is why I look at movement as shape change. It's like what shapes do I need to allow this to occur? I can create a turn in anybody. The question is, how did I get there? And did I do it in the most efficient manner possible? So people that have this representation where the superficial musculature is squeezing, they can still turn, but they turn like a refrigerator. In the ability to create the expansion and compressive strategies that is faster because I'm creating a straight line. If you've ever had to move a refrigerator and you're walking it across the room, you know, like, the refrigerator is turning, but not in the most efficient manner. That's why it sucks to have to move a refrigerator. But again, I can make anybody turn. The question is, is it efficient? Are we doing something that enhances the performance outcome? That's always the question mark. But again, you monitor your K-performance indicators over time, you apply a strategy and you see what happens. When we do these things over time and we learn some process and then we start to see the archetype representations, this allows us to narrow the probabilities of being more accurate right away. Again, this is a big deal. This is why the archetypes exist because they give us a faster point of reference from where to start. I got one guy at one end of the spectrum that's a great turner. I got one guy at the other end of the spectrum that might not be a great turner, but he's a great force producer. And so now I can start to move them towards something that might be more efficient very quickly because that's how we make our decisions anyway. It's like whether we're talking about clinically or whether we're talking about the performance realm, we're basing this off experience and probability. But having the archetype available to us, having the representation of how the superficial musculature can either enhance or limit my ability to turn, that's why these representations are so valuable because they accelerate this process.

One of the most painful things I've ever seen is my dog getting trapped between my nightstand and the wall. He went in head first. I wish I would have put it on video so everybody could see this. It took him forever to figure out how to get himself out of that because he doesn't know how to go backwards either.

I thought it might help me understand your model because he clearly is.

Traditional extension, lumbar extension or whatever extension we're going to talk about is internal rotation. It's forced into the ground, right? Now, if I am a narrow ISA biased towards counter-neutation, that's actually lumbar flexion though, isn't it? Lumbar flexion would follow the counter-neutation, which means that I'm probably going to go above that level and I'm going to use some form of lower thoracic strategy to tip the pelvis forward from above. And now that's how I get my anti-orientation. Hang on. If I'm using a lower thorax to create the internal rotation, I'm gonna use a posterior lower pelvis strategy in exactly the same way, which is gonna produce ER at the proximal femur. So I got hip ER, no hip IR. Okay, you follow? So far, so far, my IR is coming from above the lumbar spine and below the level of the trochanter.

And she had complications on the right side.

Oh no.

Right below the patella.

Yeah. Yeah. Cool.

Is that a situation where the person would have a prosthetic? You would teach that person to get inner contact.

That's your initial, like, in a narrow, that could be your initial pushback to the left and just, yeah.

A little to the right.

And just not come back out of it initially.

Yes.

No. It's actually going to be a counter-nutated position, but there's going to be pressure against the sacral base. Okay, so this is the difference between the late ER and early ER. So it's actually an overcoming representation in the ER. Okay. All right, follow me so far.

So here's what happens when you've got a straight leg raise, but the hip flexion is limited. When you raise the leg up, he just turned into his current strategy. This strategy that you're seeing on the bench press, he will do it when you raise his left leg up. When you bend the hip and the knee, it's placing weight over the hip, which in a perfect world, that should put load into the table.

Okay.

Think about this for a second. So we've got two moves to account for. They're going to move on the oblique first, and then they're going to go forward. Fair? As they move on the oblique, and we're gonna talk about the right side. We're gonna talk about like the right side of the pelvis, right hip, right lower extremity, okay? As they move over there, what are they gonna lose the most on the right side first?

Yeah. So when you were messing around on video with your chop activity that one last time we talked, right? And we said, I said, go to the end position of the chop, right? You could literally make that the activity to say, hold this position. Same principle. It's like, okay, if they can control foot position, knee position, hip position, I'm okay with just driving split squat all day long every day. Right.

Do you have concentric orientation near the apex of the sacrum?

Yes.

Oh yeah.

Yeah. You see it now? A little bit more clearly for sure. Yeah.

Yes. Indeed.

OK, but that's going to be a sucky way to do it for him, isn't it? Because it's really hard. OK. Is IR up or down? Down. Down. OK. If I'm standing up on my foot, doesn't matter which one, and I'm pushing into the ground, is that ER or IR? Awesome. OK. Do I want a late representation or an early representation if I'm trying to drive IR from proximal to distal?

Yes. Yes. Or orientation. Yes. Yes. And then he's so there and then the reason that his right knee is in front of his left knee is because his left hip socket is pointing outwards to the left. And his right hip socket is still somewhat anteverted. So that's why it seems from the side that he is kind of like in this position.

Yeah.

External rotation. Start posterior lower on the right side.

Okay. But expand, hang on, hang on.
