Spiral Lines Blistering rotational power is the effect of multiple segments of the body coordinating together to achieve something much greater than the sum of it’s parts. Rotational power is delivered from the hip to the opposite side shoulder in a very specific plyometric stretch-reflex through the anterior oblique sling. This category reverse engineers the freedom of movement, local segmental stability, multi-segmental coordination, timing and strength required to maximise the sequencing of this chain of muscles to transmit powerful forces from the lower body.
The Challenge Theme is where Low Constraints and Exercise Intensity converge to test dynamic postural control under maximal loads. Here we use an array of movement tasks to actually encourage movement skills to crumble and ask athletes to defend optimal coordination using intense load or speed. Excelling in the Challenge Theme demonstrates an extremely trainable athlete across the 14 Exercise Categories. Every % increase in strength with these techniques demonstrates an increase in robustness and readiness to perform high quality movement at ever higher standards of performance.
