Shrimp to 'arc & reach' integration
Bodyweight (BW) unilateral leg-strength
•
2m 39s
THE WHAT:
A unilateral integration which requests and develops strength & mobility through a convenient anterior/posterior-chain pairing: the isolated 'Shrimp squat', and already-integrated 'Arc & reach' (note that the 'Open/close'-hip patterning in progressions of the latter is NOT emphasised). Familiarity with those patterns and their variations in focused practice is therefore recommended.
