Didn't like it but just trust the process.
So four weeks we pulled back from that of course no running in that time as well.
We solely focused on lower extremity loading, building strength and stability around the knee, mobility work as well for the thoracic spine to get his spine moving properly.
And he's in a great position now.
He ran for the first time the other day on the treadmill, just so he had a bit of absorption there.
Feeling great, no knee problems, and he's feeling a lot more stable.
He even said to me two days ago, Charles, he goes, Dan, my bench press and pull-ups have improved exponentially.
And I'm like, yeah, no shit.
You're a lot more stable through the whole kinetic chain.
Everything's firing the right way.
So to my point is...
There will be setbacks on the journey.
You expose your body to stress, at times you will break down.
But rest assured, if you're with a team of professionals who've worked at the highest level, who truly understand biomechanics and truly understand environmental factors as well,
As we both shoot this here, we're both sitting down.
What do we present as?
Well, our hips are short, our glutes are not switched on, our T-spine is rounded in a forward flex position, our shoulders are, you said there about your labrum, we're in a protracted and internally rotated position, our pecs are short and tight, as are our lats.
Well, if we then spend eight hours a day in this position, which I know neither of us do, but certain people do, certainly some more, you times that by five over the course of a week, that's a considerable amount of time, then add that or times that by 12.
These are the environmental constraints and factors that one has that shapes how they move.
You then get them on a golf course or on a paddle court, and they've never done anything other than sitting down and a bit of bicep curls and bench press.
