Single-leg 'Arc, reach, & Hip-open'
'Compression' mobility-development
•
3m 48s
THE WHAT:
The 'Arc & Reach' is an integrated unilateral-stability & range-development context. It is comprised of a standing compression 'Arc' (pulling the STRAIGHT leg as HIGH as possible in the sagittal plane & drawing a half-circle to the back) & a unilateral, straight-leg 'hinge' pattern (the 'Reach').
Further to physical capacities, its practice develops transferable "soft" qualities such as structural, kinaesthetic & proprioceptive awareness, responsiveness, and adaptability toward cultivating functional 'dexterity'.

L-sit to V-sit progression
THE WHAT & HOW:
'THE L-SIT' represents another fundamental bodyweight-strength (BWS) form whereby the load of the body in its entirety is held off of the floor. That it begins in a seated position and utilises a scapular pushing mechanic with much greater "real-world" application than other BWS f... -
High straddle-hold
THE WHAT:
An integrated straddle-compression (i.e. active lifting of the extended legs) and straight-arm scapular-strength (SASS) drill in the context of vertical pushing. Ultimately, these two aspects integrate into a fundamental isometric form which both serves for strength-conditioning and 'ac... -
Travelling Straddle (forward & back)
THE WHAT & HOW:
A quadrupedal locomotion pattern progressing from the 'Travelling Squat', toward functioning as both a straddle-conditioning (dynamic compression) and straight-arm scapular-strength/SASS (sustaining the weight of the body in the arms) development tool.LEARN MORE (subscriber-only...
