Kinesis PT and Performance

Our Pro LAX player crushing it!

Note the improved postural alignment, pelvic control, rhythm/timing, and power.

(We did not jump rope the past 2 weeks either 😜)

Specificity of plyometrics, running drills, and resistance training is VITAL to restoring not just “strength”, but NEUROMUSCULAR CONTROL - especially for athletes getting back into sports

Rate of force development has become a “buzzword” in the industry and people often think they must have tech like force plates to assess this.

A jump rope is a great clinical assessment and retraining tool to expose and address deficits in rate of force development- especially with running athletes as both running and jump rope require proper rhythm/timing with short ground contact time.

Note the increased ground contact time of the L leg vs the R, lack of pelvic stability, and compensatory hip hinging.

A combination of continued strengthening of the entire LE kinetic chain, neuromuscular re-edu for rate of force development, and graded exposer to plyometric movements to restore the “crimp” within the fascia is needed to restore the “springyness” of his leg.

Fancy tech can be helpful in the decision making process, but don’t over look the value of simple tools around you (when applied correctly).

I could not do this at what many consider “peak physical fitness ages” (19-26). I was too immobile and “patterned up” from conventional weight lifting. (Now 37) It has been years of learning, working, and refining methodology with still a long journey to go.

Kinesio training- seeks to develop and diversify movement abilities to enhance human performance.

The methodology offers the opportunity to remaster control of your body, and learn to move within the gravitational field, not just against it.

Small group training now M/W/F 7am
