Band Training for Rotational Strength… Tapping into our power center
Your body loves to rotate and by now you know that this is your body’s power center. What is funny to me is that very few people every work rotational running or rotational pulling. It’s always in the same old straight plane. This has alot to do with our medical profession and the old fitness approach we got growing up. Machines were the best.. Wrong.
As for the medical field, they would rather we just avoid the issue by not rotating. Well try avoid rotating all day. Good luck…. It will not happen.
But I am not suppose to “twist”!! Thats right.. Twisting is rotation without using your whole body.. especially your hips. Twisting will crush your low back and knees. Rotation will not. Most people twist.
It has never made sense to me knowing that our power comes from our ability to rotate. If you don’t use it you lose it. Interestingly, I think this also is why we lose our balance and why falling is a big problem, especially in our senior population.
So it’s time to start looking at how you are going to start training the rotational plane.
Let me get you started.
