Original Strength Resets

Описание: ORIGINAL STRENGTH RESETS

I am a huge fan of Original Strength Resets for their ability to prime the body for loaded movements. Our goal in performing rocking resets is to send information to our brains that we are ready to move.

In turn, the body becomes receptive to high central nervous system activity for stronger lifts. During Original Strength Resets, we simultaneously provide mobility and strength from the fingertips to the toes.

Through rocking in the quadruped position, the muscles of the wrist and forearms, upper arms, those surrounding the shoulder girdle, core musculature, hips, and thighs, and lower legs are in sync.

When the body moves in unison, we know that we can achieve both strong static and dynamic movements. In preparation for MED Kettlebell Chains, I have found resets to be the antidote to the dynamic nature of double kettlebell training. Resets restore posture preemptively, while helping us to achieve a better overhead position, stronger and deeper squats, and total body irradiation.

ORIGINAL STRENGTH RESETS:

To begin Original Strength Rocking Resets, the athlete should begin in a quadruped position (on all fours). For the purposes of MED Kettlebell Chains and its high demands on squatting, dorsiflex the toes (pull the toes toward the shins) in the quadruped position as if you are about to sit on your heels.

With the eyes’ gaze at horizon level (slight extension like in the upswing of the kettlebell clean) and the tongue on the roof of the mouth, begin to rock your butt toward your heels. Ensure that all breathing is performed through the diaphragm. This is meant to be a fluid movement not a high- tension movement.

You should feel the triceps and lats becoming active while the abdominals maintain their natural tone. As the glutes rock toward the heels, you will feel the hip flexors turning on as if dropping into the bottom of a squat. The lower back will feel stretched as the glutes approach the heels, and the bottoms of the feet will receive active dorsiflexion.

Practice: Original Strength Resets for 10-20 breath cycles.

Pro Tip: Rock your hips backward only to the point where the lower back can remain flat. We do not want to go into a flexed lumbar position at the bottom of our rock. Ensure that the hip flexors actively pull the glutes back toward the heels.
