For diaphragmatic breathing, go ahead and put one hand on your chest and one hand on your stomach and take a deep breath in. We want all the movement to be coming from the stomach, so your hand on your chest should be staying nice and still, while the one on your stomach is moving up toward ...
Hey everyone! Today we're going to be discussing an A Hop for maximal speed and acceleration training. So for this drill, it's going to be the same setup as our A March would be. We're going to achieve dorsiflexion or a toe up position with the knee drive. And for this drill, what we're going to do ...
Now we're going to work on teaching her how to feel that multifidus contraction first of all reflexively, and then ultimately we want her to feel it volitionally. But this is kind of the first step. So what I'm going to have her do is I'm going to have you take this hand and bring it and find the...
Now we're going to take a look at both evaluating the person's multifidus and then also starting to show them how to contract it. We ultimately want to get a volitional contraction of the multifidus. So we're going to palpate the iliac crest. And then we're going to go inward and find the spinous...
All right, now we're going to take a look at doing some resistance to dorsiflexion, to kind of get some overflow to the quad to get a stronger quad contraction. So we just simply wrap tubing around the foot here and go ahead and tighten up your quad for me. Good. And then bring your toes up and h...
So once you're in the position, you're going to bend the knee up and you can use a strap a belt or even a sheet at home. And then go ahead and kick out against that belt so that you're getting a little resistance there. Good. And then relax and gently pull that up just a little bit farther. And t...
Now we're going to show an ankle dorsiflexion mobilization technique. You can certainly do your traditional one where we're doing a posterior glide of the talus as that knee comes forward. So go ahead and bring your knee forward. And I'm directing my ankle down this way here. And then come o...
For the half kneeling dorsiflexion stretch with the kettlebell, you're going to grab the bell and put your foot out to the side at a right angle to your down knee. You're going to stay up nice and tall, shoulders back, and you're going to lean forward, keeping that heel down on the ground. And y...
For long arc quad with ankle pump with weight, straighten the knee all the way out. Hold it there. Bring the ankle up and down while you keep the knee perfectly straight. Repeat that ten times.
Hey everybody. In this video we're going to be discussing B Skipping. This will be very similar to the B Marching we did in the previous video, except we're adding a skip to it now. So we're going to do is ask our athlete to get into the starting position and to review for this drill, we're going to...
Let's go ahead and bring your right foot out to the side. Slide it out. Keep that knee nice and still. Good. And let's see the left foot. Let's do both feet at the same time. And let's do internal rotation on the right and keep that foot, nice and flat. So that's really limited. Let’s go ahead on...
For diaphragmatic breathing in tall kneeling, place one hand on your chest and one hand on your stomach.Take a deep breath in and you should feel all the movement coming from your stomach, so the hand on your chest should not move at all, while the one on your stomach moves out forward.
