How To Hit Save On Proper Movement Patterns
Gray cook.......
For many people, general exercise is an integral part of their pursuit of a healthy, active lifestyle. While competitive sports often become less convenient or compatible with age, the fitness industry offers an abundance of opportunities and entry points. As participation in fitness increases so does the occurrence of training related injuries.
Human movement is a miraculous occurrence.
Though we often take credit for movement patterns, we don't make or create movement patterns. They occur without us even knowing.
But we can grow them. We can correct them, and we can develop them.
First of all, creating good movement patterns is much more complex than just creating mobility . . . however, if mobility is not available, then input for better motor control and stability will not be available.
Most people can see the inherent mobility training within the practice of yoga. What many don't understand is that the practice of yoga, when done correctly, is more amazing for stabilization. The part of the body that is elongated, stretching and going through a mobility pattern is only possible because another part of the body is creating stability such as the foot 🦶 or hand 🖐 .
The breathing that all wise yoga instructors obsess upon is there to both set better motor control and stabilization and allow greater elongation, flexibility and mobility.
Here is two very important patterns that may help you hit save on this well-written mobility document so you can
convert it to a movement pattern. Into YOUR Movement pattern.
TALL KNEELING PATTERN 1
HALF KNEELING PATTERN 2
These two patterns (half kneeling and tall kneeling) are powerful for the person experiencing them. They give the individual feedback loop for the importance of that breathing during movement/exercise.
The focus should be more on breathing and relaxation than execution and tension.
These tall-kneeling and half-kneeling holding patterns are the linchpin that create a continuous link from your mobility work into your carrying work and your lifting work.
Gray Cook says:
• When you have problems with your lifts, do more carries...
• When you have problems with your carries, do more holds...
* And, when you have problems with your holds, do more mobility work.
One last point is that everything above applies to the entire movement process. This means all the way down and all the way up. All the way out and all the way back. From start to finish. So in other words....
You should always come out of the rabbit hole the same way you go in.
