Unfair Advantage Performance

Whats up! I'm your host Wātus ->pronounced (Way - dis)! 😁 Im launching a live cast/podcast all about what is BEHIND THE PERFORMANCE. There's so much that goes into what we all do on a day to day basis but what often gets posted is the result.

This is a livecast/podcast not about the result, not about the champion, BUT what made the champion and what brought out the result!

I invite you to TUNE IN and be the fly on the wall as we bring in athletes, BJJ black belts, firefighters, moms, dads, and everything in between!

How you do anything is how you do everything. Our bodies get stuck in certain restrictions because we've essentially trainined it do do so, i.e. sitting down, looking at our phones, not workoing out, etc.
.
Getting the adhesions or knots in you back, neck, and/or any other part of your body is going to take more than just a stretch...more than just an isolated exercise...it's going to take work and that work is somewhat complex, but when it hurts bad enough you'll change and you'll put in the work.

Everything starts with POSTURE. Without a summation of forces, tensegrity, and intra-abdominal pressure...this movement wouldn't be possible.
We need to find strength at neutral and move with tension from there without compromising structural integrity. This is the goal of the training I do, this is the goal of optimizing performance and human movement. POSTURE.

What a day!!! First tournament as a #bluebelt is in the books! Fought against some really good competitors and was able to bring home the silver 🥈in the no-gi and the gold 🥇 in the gi!!
Jiu Jitsu Competitions are a proving ground like no other...they say "you can't teach heart" but ....I beg to differ... I won my gold medal match in the gi with a score of 4 - 2 and I got those 4 points with less than 20 seconds left in a 5 min match. Blackbelt @granderson33 said it best when he said "doing something hard re-enforces who you are." Hearing my wife, my coaches and teammates yelling in that last minute momentarily took me back to all the ice baths, all the hours of training, all the thoughts and places where I wanted to stop...wanted to quit - but I said no! Those experiences are what I stood on to take my opponents back and win! Do something difficult, challenge yourself in ways that expose those areas that are attempting to keep you mediocre, that's where the real change happens, thats where we win. Today was proof. Lets do it again!!!

[10/14/20]   🚨Client Highlight🚨
.
Dan lost his right arm while serving overseas in the military. In an attempt to save his arm doctors removed the muscles that make up his right Lat (back muscle) and the nerves from both calves (lower legs).
.
They were unsuccessful in saving his arm and had to amputate just past the elbow. Due to the fact that he works harder than anyone I know, he's now functioning better than some that have zero injuries and all extremities!
.
Dan You've made me a better practitioner, my man! Looking forward to every session we get to learn and grow together!

⚠️Why does this keep happening at the highest level??⚠️
#dakprescott has been trained to put pressure on the inside edge of his foot....this type of pressure combined with bad #biomechanics...then add in contact sport = recipe for injury

Train for #integration and #connectivity
.
Human #movement is complex. Most natural human movement involves the interplay of a variety of muscles working together to produce the desired patterns of movement.
.
🔑 SLINGS:
These refer to a series of muscles in the front and back of body that work together to transfer load efficiently in order to produce and coordinate movements.
.
The slings are involved in gait, running, throwing, punching, rotational movements, and many dynamic movements that show up in sports.
✅ They are responsible for the connection and coordination between the upper and lower body through the midsection.
.
Ie. A boxer with punching power gets it from the coordinated action of upper body, core, and lower body. When a punch is sequenced correctly and timed right, the entire body is at work. This is where power comes from, the connection between upper and lower body (the sling systems).
.
🔑 You can start training for better connection and stimulating/strengthening your slings. As this connection improves, you will notice how it shows up in a variety of movements and sports.
.
• Start by training movements as opposed to muscles.
• Train rotational movements, this is where the slings are at work most.
.
I will post some examples of sling training shortly.

🚨RED LIGHT THERAPY🚨 (PHOTOBIOMODULATION)
TONS of Benefits!
Red and Near Infrared Light energy strengthen and boost the function of our cell factory called the mitochondria. It supports our mitochondria helping to create more Adenosien Triphosphate (ATP = energy currency used in every function in our body)
It also trains our cells to fight against oxidative stress and chronic inflammation or "aging". And the list goes on....
Increase collagen and elastin production
Reduce neuropathy
Supports muscle growth and repair
Improves fertility and testosterone (in males)
Decreases wound healing time
Increases brain health and performance
Boost fat loss
Hair restoration
Increase circulation

⚠️Why are so many pro athletes getting hurt?⚠️
When it comes to performance, athletes and humans alike, must train the body to respond positively to stress. The body responds how it is trained/conditioned to respond. Its either going to be biomechanically sound...or its not.

⚠️Reason #382 ⚠️ "Why you should be training biomechanically."
In these photos we can clearly see a difference between an isolated thow vs an integrated throw.

No movement, especially athletic movement, happens in #isolation. This is why its so important to train our bodies like we want them to perform.
・・
Muscles are all connected in a web of #facia. This web links one muscle group to the next, from top to bottom!

When tension within the web of connected muscles has tension, we find structure and stability.
Where there is a lack of tension, there's #slack...where there's slack, we typically find dysfunctions, lack of performance potential and worse case scenario...an injury.

Through emitting red and near infrared wavelengths through the skin and inside the cellular and mitochondrial level, red and near infrared light therapy helps naturally jump-start the process of tissue recovery and other forms of rejuvenation through increased blood flow, collagen stimulation and more.
🔥
Some of the ways that red and near infrared wavelengths work are by:
🔥
☆Increasing energy levels by promoting release of ATPfrom cells’ mitochondria
🔥
☆Stimulating DNA/RNA synthesis
🔥
☆Activating the lymphatic system, an important part of our immune system that helps carry waste out of the body
🔥
☆Increasing blood flow/circulation, thereby helping bring more oxygen and nutrients to our cells and tissues
🔥
☆Forming new capillaries (small blood vessels)
🔥
☆Improving natural production of collagen and fibroblasts, important for things like skin, joint and digestive health
🔥
☆Repairing and restoring damaged soft connective tissue
🔥
☆Stimulating or decreasing inflammation, which helps control our natural healing capabilities
🔥
☆Lowering effects of oxidative stress/free radical damage, which is associated with many effects of aging
🔥
Choosing the right photobiomodulation device is important. EMR's products like the Firestorm, Firewave & IR-Wave are low EMF, flicker free, high powered, well ergonomically designed with the use of biologically active wavelengths of light. We use secondary electrostatic coating around our LED's to decrease light loss and increase overall irridance.

Raw Milk is a SUPER FOOD!
Loaded with all the fat soluble vitamins A, D, E, and K, plus bioavailable calcium, raw unpasteurized local milk becomes essential for healthy teeth and bones! Not only that but the copper in raw milk can aid with the regulation of excess iron - so if I suffered from "anemia" - this would be a must! Lastly we can't forget about the #enzymes - this is what makes it such a great super food. Because of the enzymes it shouldn't put undue strss on our bodies to process it and absorb all we need from it!

Check at a #sprouts near you or local farmers market to get some. Our go to here in #AZ is @fonddulacfarms
