'Star' and 'Copenhagen' plank
Core & spinal-stability
•
1m 11s
THE WHAT:
Two laterally-stabilising plank forms which perfectly complement one another in their innately opposite loading. Whilst both contributing to development of spinal & core stability, the 'Star-plank' relies on strong support from the full line of the leg-abductors & lateral-flexors of the body, whilst the 'Copenhagen' connects the entire medial line from the leg-adductors and into the internal structure.
Resource contents:
0:05 - 'Star-plank' progressions
0:31 - 'Copenhagen-plank' progressions
In both cases, variations (they are presented in order from the full forms, down to their regression) of difficulty have been demoed simply by increasing or decreasing the length of the form, and therefore the leverage. Choose the most maximal progression sustainable with no structural degradation, relative to the time & volume variables being worked with.

Long fascial-lines & core conditioning
THE WHAT:
Contexts for connecting, "illuminating", and conditioning long facial lines in the body, stretching from the head/arms to the toes. The initial objective of this practice is simply to NOTICE that these long lines exit in the body, feeling them intrinsically connected through both the su... -
The 'Hollow-Body'
THE WHAT:
A foundational bodyweight strength exercise which develops transferable understanding and conditioning of the fundamental "hollow-body" position. This characteristically globally-concaved structure is fundamental in that it produces maximal TENSION in the body, radiating from the inside... -
'Accordion' walks to 'Superman'
THE WHAT:
This context develops integrated core strength, spinal stability, and overhead shoulder-flexion support through progressively lengthened horizontal body positions. Beginning from shorter and more mechanically favourable structures, the practitioner gradually extends the body further int...
