  • Q & A for The 16% – Overcoming the Limitation of Your Model of Movement

    Q & A for The 16% – Overcoming the Limitation of Your Model of Movement

    I’ve my @neurocoffee, hope you have yours.

    Here’s today’s Q & A.

    From Carmine:
    I appreciate the content you’ve continued to put out during these times.  I have a question in regard to your model. George Box said “All models are wrong, some are useful.” What would you say are the limitations of your model? And how do the limitations of your model influence your decision making?

  • Q & A for The 16% – Understanding Models and Compressive Strategies that Limit Movement

    Q & A for The 16% – Understanding Models and Compressive Strategies that Limit Movement

    Grab your @neurocoffee for today’s Q&A.

    From Rachel:
    I’m having a hard time conceptualizing anterior/posterior compression. If an individual shows a posterior to anterior compressive strategy, they will lose ER of appendages. In my mind, if someone is compressing posteriorly, wouldn’t muscles (say, glute max, piriformis, traps) be concentrically oriented, wouldn’t this lead to gains of ER?

  • Q & A for The 16% – Best Apps for Mind Mapping Models – Quarantine Wide ISA Training

    Q & A for The 16% – Best Apps for Mind Mapping Models – Quarantine Wide ISA Training

    Grab your @neurocoffee and dig into today’s Q&A.

    From Charlie:
    I wanted to say thanks for putting out so much awesome content lately. You really are a gift to this field. I was thinking about you the other day in regards to your videos on drawing out your model and organizing things as you have done with note cards, etc. Although I certainly appreciate your analog approach, for those of us that gravitate towards more digital organization systems, I thought I would share two mind mapping platforms that I have found helpful: XMind and Mindomo. I have used both, but seem to be gravitating more towards Mindomo. You can create a topic, add subtopics, input articles, links, etc. At any rate, I thought those resources might be helpful for you our your students/padawans who need a way to map out their model.

    From Reggie:
    I appreciate all the great content you’ve been posting lately. My question is a “quarantine edition” one given that I’m looking for helpful wide ISA moves that can be done at home with limited equipment (dumbbell pairs ranging from 2-10 lbs; one 25 lb dumbbell; one 25 lb kettlebell; pads/books; weighted bands). I’m specifically looking for useful moves for the lower posterior thorax region, and then for the upper thorax. It seems that helpful moves involve unilateral movement with some rotational forces at play. I can see how this is done with a landmine press, or with a cable machine at a gym. With or without free weights, however? I’m struggling a bit here and would love to get your input.

    6am Thursday Coffee with Coaches Conference Call

    With @neurocoffee in hand, we had a great 6am Coffee and Coaches Conference Call.

    Topics:

    • Appreciating both scientific understanding and the practical application setting

    • Balance as an element of return to play

    • Decision-making and mental models

    • How to communicate with clients

    We got pretty deep and had a great conversation.

    Thanks to all the coaches and practitioners for showing up.

    Special thanks to @neurocoffee.

  • Q & A for The 16% – Will Wide Infrasternal Angles Benefit from Side Plank or Inversion?

    Q & A for The 16% – Will Wide Infrasternal Angles Benefit from Side Plank or Inversion?

    Grab your @neurocoffee for this morning’s Q & A for The 16%…

    From Michael:
    I’ve heard you say that you would side plank a wide ISA. Can you go into detail about why  and what effect it has on the ribcage?  Also, can you give some side plank examples you would use? Progressions, regressions?

    From Rondel:
    I asked a question about expansion in the upper thorax [on the IFAST U Q & A], and I would like to get clarification, if possible. Let me know if I got this correct.  Wide: Face-up: what exercises specifically?  Narrow: Facedown: what exercises specifically?

    From Sasha:
    I do have a question pertaining to the shoulder going into extension being an external rotation moment, unless you are reaching across the midline. Would that fly in the face of what is commonly taught? Have an outstanding day!
