12 Apr Side Lying Rotation Dissociation Drill
Here is an awesome drill to promote CONTROLLED dissociation. There's a difference between just rotating your body fast versus controlled dissociation activating our muscles. Excessive rotation of the spine, especially with trunk flexion, can cause shearing forces at the annulus fibrosus on the same side...

12 Apr Median Nerve Neurodynamics
Here is a shoe string model I designed for the visual learner to better understand neurodynamics. Be sure to turn your sound on as I explain in more detail what is happening to the median nerve at different joints based on position. Neurodynamics is the physical...
12 Apr Improve Your Golf Swing With Spieths
Ever wonder how the PGA pros warm up? Check out this exercise that is part of Jordan Spieth's dynamic warm up routine. This drill helps with activating the hip stabilizing musculature, scapular stabilizers, and promoting thoracic spine mobility. The evolution of the modern golf swing is...
12 Apr Forward Step Up With Single Leg Balance With The Yoak
If you want to challenge your balance, you need to add demands to the task that decrease your stability. Perturbations are an effective way to add instability to your exercise. Perturbations are awesome because they provide constant variability. Research has shown variability of practice can...
12 Apr Bounding
Get back to running and improve your running with bounding! According to an article by Powers 2010, “The external moments (force couples) created by the resultant ground reaction force (from the ground) are resisted internally by muscles and noncontractile tissues such as ligaments and the joint...
