Padawan Lesson: Propulsion Concepts Applied to Cutting and Baseball Pitching
We’ve been reviewing pressure and volume shifts throughout the pelvis that influence the pelvic diaphragm shape, position, and movement. In this video, we move up to the thorax to address the thorax movement, shape change, and airflow mechanics that occur with cutting to the side and a baseball throw. Just as we talk about propulsion, […]
