Hanging scapular circles & sequence
SASS pull (vertical & horizontal)
•
1m 40s
THE WHAT (circles):
A loaded scapular mobilization contexts which coordinates active protraction, retraction, elevation & depression of the scapulae with global extension and flexion of the spine.
As well as a context for "oiling" the scapulae (i.e. encouraging synovial fluid & blood-flow in the scapular & shoulder area), it is also an opportunity to "grease the grooves" of fundamental scapular movement patterns.

'False-grip' (FG) Development
THE WHAT:
'False-grip' (FG) development is oriented around two connected capacities: mobility, and strength development. This is because the 'FG' is mechanically at its strongest when a toward 90° angle of wrist-flexion is available when gripping the rings (i.e. it is maximally "closed"), but at ... -
'Passive' & 'Active' hanging 'L-sit'
THE WHAT:
Fundamental "core" and straight-arm scapular-strength (SASS) development contexts affected by lifting & extending of the legs toward a full 'L-sit' form, and holding isometrically. At the same time, it also teaches basic manipulation of 'mechanical advantage' with the legs; essentially ... -
Rings ‘Knee-raise’ to ‘Toes to rings’
THE WHAT & HOW:
Linear progressions for developing strength, patterning, and familiarity with straight-arm pulling on the gymnastics rings, affecting both straight-arm scapular-strength (SASS) and straight-arm strength (SAS).Along with variations of ‘Knee-to-bar’, this conditioning context emph...
