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.
What series of strength exercise would, if performed optimally, demonstrate the extremes of human movement and maximally test local and global stability strategies with high relevance to sports performance? The Mastery Theme houses these exercises across all 14 Exercise Categories. The most extreme demands of multiple Exercise Categories completely converge leaving absolutely nowhere for movement deficiencies to hide. These exercises demonstrate an exquisite balance of strength, flexibility and reactive stability and represent elite movement competency in a gym setting.
