Hey guys,
Have a look at the following link covering muscle activation
http://www.muscleactivation.co.za
System entails overriding defense mechanisms in the body. I saw the physio/kinesio Doug Heel demonstrate his techniques and was astounded by the results. It makes for interesting reading, it did take me a while to get my head around the methodologies though.
Doug’s principles of Muscle Activation:
* When you are defending, you cannot be performing
* What is in the mind is in the body
* What is in the body is in the mind
* When we connect the mind to the muscle the body shifts immediately
It takes approx 5 minutes and possibly this could be used in the warm-ups.
I’m interested to see the response from the readers.
