Mover's Odyssey

Knee Rehab Runner's Hang Video: https://youtu.be/P25Kb724ESU Website: https://www.moversodyssey.com Medical Disclaimer: https://www.moversodyssey.com/medical-disclaimer Chaos training is a modality of strength training that incorporates elements of instability and chaos such as unstable surfaces, shifting resistance, or other unpredictable forces which the body must contend with. Some training modalities that would fit within the umbrella term "chaos training" would include balance training, offset load training, sand bag training, muscle confusion, perturbation training, instability training, etc... This type of training is great for creating greater stabilization in the joints, which is why its often used as prehab and rehab. It's also been used extensively to increase proprioception and to improve exercise form. #injuryprevention #injuryrehab #stabilitytraining #prehab #kneepain #proprioception #balancetraining #sandbagtraining #jointhealth #gymnasticrings

This often leads to some confusion about the best way to train the abs in a wholistic and functional manner, especially if you're also looking for aesthetic improvement. In this video we go over what are the basic requirements for a functional, well shaped and aesthetic core and then give the mover's odyssey opinion of what the best single workout to hit these requirements is. This exercise (the ab rollout and its variations) is a classic ab exercise that is easy to learn, cheap to perform (you only need an ab wheel or suspension trainer like gymnastic rings) and if performed and progressed properly, can reap rewards for a lifetime. This exercise can target not only the upper and lower abdominals, but also the obliques, the serratus anterior and the transverse abdominis (the only muscle that can truly shrink the waist line ). #abworkout #abs #absworkout #coreworkout #obliques #transverseabdominis #abwheel #waistworkout

Mike Tyson Push Up Video: https://youtu.be/gcWqt3V92MA https://www.moversodyssey.com Doorway Pull up Bar from Amazon: https://amzn.to/4dZe2e4 https://www.instagram.com/movers_odyssey/ Pull ups are considered a vertical pulling exercise, largely targeting latissimus muscles and biceps. However, there is one variation of pull ups that is not only a vertical pull, but also a horizontal pull, much like rows. This pull up, known as the Gironda pull up, targets not only the lats and biceps, but also the muscles of the upper back. It also employs the active arch hang position which is so healthy for the shoulders and great for scapular control and shoulder mobility. This is especially healing for the slouching shoulder posture. #pullups #pullupworkout #calisthenics #calisthenicsworkout #calisthenicsvsbodybulding #backworkout

Shallow Squatting bar reach example: https://youtube.com/shorts/JRq5WKhkFwY?si=NazVepF11LuQIUdO Deep Bar Reach Example: https://youtube.com/shorts/7mNozmxGD70?si=Wju8Jv2ycTthaKcI https://www.moversodyssey.com https://www.instagram.com/movers_odyssey/ The squatting bar reach is a mobility drill often utilized to help restore squat mobility, improve posture and stretch the glutes and back. A bonus is that this helps to correct a postural issue that shows up as a bulging lower abdomen. This mobility drill is simple and can be added to an existing warm up routine to great effect.

https://www.moversodyssey.com https://www.instagram.com/movers_odyssey/ The brain dictates what percentage of muscle fibers can be used at will. This is a protective mechanism to ensure that the joints are not damaged by utilizing too much strength at once. Muscle spindles and golgi tendon organs supply the brain with the sensor data that allow it to determine what level of strength is appropriate for each situation. Stories of hysterical strength in which mothers lift cars off their children are examples of these protective mechanisms being overridden, allowing the body temporary full access to the individuals strength capacity. In this video, 4 different methods of increasing the conscious activation of muscle fibers (motor unit recruitment) are investigated.

Here's a live example of the dynamic version of this exercise called "hip airplanes": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9svtEV4vkp0 https://www.moversodyssey.com https://www.instagram.com/movers_odyssey/ The chances of knee injury and knee pain are increased drastically by postural and positional misalignments. Foremost among these is dynamic knee valgus. Often called knock knees, the dynamic version of this knee misalignment is not postural but is instead seen during movement. This is often seen in runners, lifters and athletes and is a common cause of ACL tears, MCL tears, meniscus and cartilage tears and runners knee. The runners hang is simple exercise that helps strengthen and stretch the hips and legs in order to make the body more durable against this misalignment. And most importantly, the runners hang helps teach proper knee alignment so that the skill of healthy movement can more easily translate to athletic activities. #kneepain #kneeinjury #running #legtraining Chapters 0:00 Intro 1:47 Glute Medius 2:28 Over Pronation 3:21 Kinesthetic Awareness 3:56 Runner's Hang 5:04 Runner's Hang Instruction 5:52 Variations 6:29 Lateral Hip Hike 6:58 Programming and Progression 8:40 End Art and Quote
