Symmetry- King of Fitness
What Does It Mean to be Fit?
Being Strong? Finishing a Marathon? Climbing a Mountain???
These are outward signs of being fit….But Underlying such PERFORMANCES is a more fundamental quality – left side/right side MUSCULAR SYMMETRY….
SYMMETRY is the King of Fitness.
- Is Your Right Hip Tighter Than Your Left?
- Is Your Left Foot Balance Easier Than the Right?
**** These Side to Side Differences are signs of Trouble!!!
Being Good at Anything (Skiing, Swimming, even one-sided endeavors such as tennis or golf (See PowerWire #34) requires left and right sides to be, more or less, the same…
Royal Pains:
- With an Imbalance of Left to Right Function (in the form of Tension, Flexibility, Balance, Coordination, etc…), the dominant side inevitably accumulates More Small Injuries (See PowerWire #38)
- It is Our Bilateral Design Which Keeps us Easily Upright in Gravity (See PowerWire #21) - Possessing Traumatized Tissue on one side of the body Throws OFF our Alignment making us less efficient
- When our Muscles are distracted by fighting Gravity, There is Less Available Capacity for Performance!!!
The Crowning Achievement of Exercise is to Get Your Self Symmetrical!!
In The Ranks Academy “Be Your Own Personal Trainer” Workshops (for Motivated Individuals) and “Working with the Older Athlete” Workshops for Trainers and Health Professionals, we give you The Royal Court of Getting Back to Symmetry
- Postural Analysis to See what is Needed and Where!!
- Evaluative Exercises For Hip and Shoulder Rescue
- Gluing Energy Deep Tissue Technique
- Restorative Exercise “Jawbreakers” (See PowerWire #25)
So Don’t Just Train – Train Yourself with Symmetry!
It’s Worth a King’s Ransom!!!
