Vertical Pull The latissimus dorsi are powerful muscles for athletic performance but they also have a tendency to derail shoulder stability and trunk posture. The Vertical Pull category is designed to harness and tame the power of latissimus dorsi with a major focus on shoulder and trunk postures to resist destructive postures and optimise it’s powerful role within the kinetic chain.
The Corrective Theme is the initial phase of a 4-part movement hierarchy.
This Theme contains exercises which promote good movement quality first. Here we expose range of motion deficits & poor coordination that will derail progression & transfer of training. Exercises in the Corrective Theme stimulate reflexive stabilisation in optimal postures at priority joints with dynamic control that will scale to support more complex exercise variations.
