Do the fluid water?

So this is getting into more so like trying to alter.

Good morning. First, I have a follow-up on Zach's question. When talking about narrow versus wide archetypes and toe-heel versus heel-toe foot contact, I believe loading the heel first and then rolling into the toe would achieve the individual relative motion positions of all the foot bones. This would be more indicative of an early or early-middle position. Conversely, going toe first and then dropping into the heel might achieve a later position. Therefore, I often use a heel-toe approach because I feel it gets more out of it, despite not necessarily following the reverse-engineering direction.

This is a backswing.

Like an IR, it's okay. So that's an IR compensation.

He defaults to an anterior orientation at every valuable opportunity as well. So put him in a push-up position, or anything of that nature. He's dumping straight in, straight by the spine. There was one other thing in respect to the same series of photos. On the diagram that you mocked up with the red, the red line on the right leg, was that just demonstrate to highlight the differences between the two?

Start there. Okay, start there. That's what I would do if you're, especially if you're struggling, right? So you put her in a heels elevated position and go, 'ah, this is going to give her some space back there.'

Okay, cool. As they go forward, what are they going to lose?

Yeah. It's like when you're teaching somebody to squat for the first time, how do you do it? Take this same process, and now let's reverse engineer. Sit down on the box for me. They sit down on the box. Stand up. Get it? So what you think is the end. So a squat is actually a bottom-up activity. It's not a top-down activity. It's always a bottom-up activity. Again, all you have to do is look at the orientation of the pelvis, and you can see, oh, this is a stand-up. It's not a sit-down. But you have to get down there to stand back up, because we're walking around on two feet.

Okay, that's important. Kind of important. I understand the sense of confusion. I understand how fast all of this stuff changes too. The minute that tibia starts to move forward and you're moving towards midline, yes, they are moving apart. That is a change in muscle orientation, though. Always keep that in mind. You have to distinguish positions from rate.

Yeah. Okay.

If I'm starting from the side.

Hi, sir.

Yeah. I haven't talked about entropy in two weeks. That's a true story. No, it's really good. Well, but see, this is great because a lot of people don't think this way. But that's, again, one of the goals of my model is to remain as coherent as possible with universal principles. We are part of the universe. Therefore, we are affected by it.

Okay, you have to sit on the edge of the mat table?

Right. And then in this situation, let's just say what's going on at the lower back at the lower spine. So S1-L5. He has an anterior orientation that is a little bit more on the left than the right. It's like a strategy, but it's more like a turn.

So she's using a compensatory inhalation strategy. And then she can't get air out. So she has to take a hit of her inhaler to create an artificial expansion, chemical, right? The chemical influence gives her some expansion. You put her in all fours. What does she say? Oh, this is so much better because you gave her anterior expansion of her belly, which allowed the diaphragm to descend just a little bit more and allows her to breathe in a little bit more. But that's not the solution. That's a cheat. It's like giving a golfer a swing fault fix. It does work because it's more comfortable. It's kind of like, if you've ever heard me talk about like knees and things, it's like sometimes you go right after the knee to reduce the symptoms first and then you can work on the strategies that are interfering with the knee behavior. This might be one of those situations where you go, let's do some quadruped, get you comfortable, get your breathing a little better, but what you gotta do is you gotta get the rib cage to move. You're gonna have to get the BISA to start to move. She's gonna be a sideline person. You gotta get a rolling, okay? Because you're not one to lay hands on her. You've gotta create the compressions for her. So you might even put like an Eric's pad or something underneath her rib cage as she's rolling to increase a little bit of compression there. You use arm position to help her expand parts of the rib cage. Chances are she doesn't have normal shoulder motion, but if you move the arms around through space a little bit into different areas, you're gonna help her create turns and positions that will start to expand parts of the rib cage.

Yes, that was cool. Awesome.

Posterior outlet. See the space and your outlet.

As much as we can knock certain exercise systems that have become prolific to where they have now turned exercise into a competition, you know what I'm talking about? I'm not going to mention it by name. But that is what I'm talking about. That's the extreme representation of what I'm talking about. It's like there's a very specific culture within that exercise regime where it's no longer about progress and the specific outcome of the fitness itself. It's about, did you finish such and such workout? Like they made the workout a competition and then that inspires people to come back, but then they become engaged in that culture and in that community. And then they buy the clothes and then they speak the language, and then they're very biased against all other things. You can hope for that because that's what drives the successful business. You create a culture that is attractive to a certain group of people. And then your marketing is done for you. I have a finite quantity of resources available to me. So that's my genetics. That's my training. That's whatever I have available to me. That's my nutrition. That's my recovery, et cetera. Each one of those has a limit. Good morning. Happy Friday. I have neuro coffee in hand and it is perfect. It's going to be a busy weekend. We're in the final push on the move from IFAS 2.0 to IFAS 3.0. So we got to wrap that up. So I'm going to dig straight into today's Q&A. This is with Kunal, from India and first time on the Coffee and Coaches Conference call yesterday. So welcome Kunal. I just hope I said your name correctly. But a great question in regards to distribution of resources. So initially, the question was, how do I create somebody that is very, very strong or hypertrophied and still move well and remain pain-free. And to some degrees, I think that those are achievable goals depending on how far we want to take things because we do have a limitation on resources. How we distribute those resources determines a lot of the outcomes. We can distribute them over many capabilities and be incredibly average in many, many things, or we can shift resources in one direction to the extreme. And then this is where we see some of the amazing performances. But in doing so, we are going to sacrifice something else because we do have a finite pool of resources to draw upon. And so we discuss our way through that. We also talk about a little bit of programming structure near the end of this discussion as far as how we would want to structure the workout session to make sure that we're getting some of the movement-based work in with some of the high-force activities.

Yeah. Why does she love that? Because it helps to square the sacrum to the front. And then you gave her an activity where she just didn't have enough. So you didn't capture enough IR. Like you probably improved it, but you didn't capture enough of the IR representation through that middle P. Then you gave her the tibial translation activity, which did give her exactly what she needed, which was to bring that sacrum square to the front. So she was staying in a late representation on the left. She was still holding back a little bit on the right side. And all you had to do is get the sacrum to push forward on the right side, which is what you did. So again, you did the right thing.

Okay.

Yeah.

Potentially. So in this situation, would I be losing left internal rotation and gaining right internal rotation?

So if we were to switch it to the other side, like if we were to now switch feet in that case. Yes. Go. Keep going. You got it. So now I'm going to put more force into the wall on that. Yeah. Well, I guess it's a start to set up my max to set up my early P on the other side.

Is that in an order of occurrence: some type of posterior compression pushing their pelvis forward, a twist of the distal femur, and then nothing else has happened yet? You haven't moved forward enough with their pelvis to enter weight propulsion, they're still up.

Say it, Manuel. Manuel's got it. Say it.

Yeah. That's a good question. Grace. Hey, I have a question for you, Grace.

As you're coming through 90 degrees and you're bringing that elbow across.

Okay. Just in front of it.
