Low-gait 'meia lua'
PRE-/REHAB: Feet, ankles, knees & hips
•
1m 21s
THE WHAT:
At the lowest-of-the-'low-gait' contexts sits the maximally-compressed squat form, from which any lower in space must be a transition into the floor.

'Proofing' of the Ankles & Knees
THE WHAT:
Working here with the concept of 'mapping' the feet against the ground with initiation points coming from either the knees, or the feet themselves. Both perspectives, and graduations between them, should be explored. The "side-effect" of this exploration includes a low-intensity, prehab... -
The 'Harop Curl'
THE WHAT:
The 'Harop curl' is a posterior-chain strength & conditioning tool whose intensity can be easily manipulated by "mechanical advantage" (i.e. sequence of "hinging" in hips & knees).Due to positioning, the posterior-chain (namely hamstrings, glutes & lower-back) experiences an increasin...
