The 'Kneeling lean-back'
PRE-/REHAB: Feet, ankles, knees & hips
•
1m 8s
THE WHAT:
An isometric-emphasis context focused on patterning & strengthening the "open-hip" angle (i.e. maximal hip-extension), whilst under increasing bodyweight load (the deeper you "lean" backward, the "heavier" the context gets).
In this way it shares similarities in loading with the fundamental 'Sissy-squat', and even the likes of 'Quad-bridge loading' and 'Low-bridge' variations, its practice, therefore, having positive transferability to those forms.

The fundamental 'Sissy squat'
THE WHAT:
The fundamental 'Sissy squat' is essentially a top-down, reverse-loaded hinge made at the knees to the deepest range, and back again. Whilst effecting strength & mobility-development of the anterior-chain, its progressive practice & conditioning also contributes to general knee stabilit... -
'Open-hip knee-kiss' & Elevated 'Toe-...
THE WHAT:
Here the concept of an 'open-hip' (i.e. hip-extension) initiated from the squat position is explored in both unilateral ('Knee-kiss') and bilateral ('Toe-rock') contexts. From a capacity-development perspective, the toes are exposed to loading in their maximally extended position, and w... -
'Low-gait' Squat (LGS) development
THE WHAT:
'Low-gait': the bipedal world between standing and floor-entrance. These drills focus on the "deepest" range from which floor-entrance is most accessible - if the experience and mobility capacities are available. Whilst consistent practice of these drills will help DEVELOP those ranges,...
