From sitting mid to upper 80s to 89-91 T92... in 5 months? The Owen Murdock transformation🔥⁠ ⁠ The main mechanical changes were fixing his torso position, extension timing, and matching plane of rotation. ⁠ ⁠ PC: @Mark_Fischer50⁠ ⁠ #TreadFam⁠show more

Rotate into extension. ✅ Extension into rotation. ❌

We are pleased to present a new lateral-view animation... of the leg in motion. As the limb moves through extension and flexion, the active muscle groups light up. Now the challenge: can you name every muscle active in each phase? Most people miss at least one. #anatomystandardshow more

Most runners have underdeveloped internal rotation. That's why stretching... your hips never seems to fix anything. 90/90 heel lift trains the exact range that's missing. → Front leg in flexion and external rotation → Back leg in extension and internal rotation → Lift the back heel against gravity, that's the hip IR working → Can't lift it? Lean your torso slightly away from the working leg → Move slow. 2-3s up, 2-3s down I'm using a 1kg weight here. Start without load and build up. I'm adding this exercise in my routine because just like most runners, my adduction and internal rotation strength is lacking. 3 x 8-10 each side. If your pelvis is rotating, drop the weight. Quality over quantity.show more

HIP MOBILITY - THREE moves to explore rotation of... the hips. First one is seated where we can pry a little more having leverage to dive deep into internal rotation. Second is exploring IR rotation from a squat and third is a combo of the figure 4 contour and elevated pigeon.show more
