Ankle-dorsiflexion development
Fundamental squat & hip-mobility development
•
1m 10s
THE WHAT:
Whist consistent practice of these two simple forms contributes toward developing range & elasticity in ankle-dorsiflexion, their form & position (i.e. 'hinged' in the hip), also affects the hamstrings of the 'working' leg. For this reason, they are equally valuable in developing FRONT-FOLDING ranges, particularly the unilateral 'Head-to-toe' form, in which dorsiflexion ultimately becomes a limiting factor.

Kneeling hip-flexor release
THE WHAT:
A supported contract/relax context for "releasing" available range in the hip-flexor-complex (i.e. maximally "opening" the hip). It's primary use-value is as a preparatory tool to establish what the nervous system will "allow" at that time, from which point more potent tools (namely tho... -
Quadriceps & hip-flexor stretches
THE WHAT:
Fundamental static stretches affecting the "hip-flexors" & quadriceps complex. Whist incomplete in themselves for developing sustainable and USABLE ranges in the long-term, their convenience allows them to be more easily cultivated into an habitual daily practice, one of the most powerf... -

THE WHAT:
An intensive hip-mobility routine designed to explore various patterns in and develop the ranges of the resting squat position. Along with the likes of 'front-folding' and overhead reaching, it can be truly considered a "fundamentally human" range, in that it has huge carry-over to both...
