Jawbreakers: More Than Kid Stuff
You’ll stay young muscularly by EXERCISING YOUNG –
It’s time think outside of the gym! Let me Explain:
There’s no better learner than a 1 year old learning to walk!
Her process is characterized by ongoing repetition of SMALL Actions multiple times a day!
Toddler Learning still works best!
PROBLEM:
When kids struggle along, it’s cute! For us grown-ups, we feel silly or unworthy not picking up a trick the first time. Change mindset and the body will follow…
There is a special category of exercise in The Ranks meant to be done multiple times daily both at the gym and outside the gym which we call “JAWBREAKERS” – named after the small, hard candy which takes a while to whittle down.
A Jawbreaker is a small yet critical component link in a larger action. For example, rotator cuff strength will improve your 3 mile run because running is easier with a straight upper body. (See PowerWire #24)
You may run 2 times a week but will need to do 150 arms circles 3x/day for rotator cuff to cultivate an ideal running posture. Jawbreakers seed muscle memory with beneficial reflex!
Jawbreakers break down into 3 categories
- Strategic Strength – Bolstering ankle, grip, shoulder, etc – up to 200 small repetitions 3-5x a day
- Specialized Strength – Putting a specific sequence of muscle contractions into muscle memory such as getting up from a chair or a golf swing. ( 20-100 times/day depending on the action)
- Tissue Resilience – This is Self-Applied Deep Tissue work to restore mobility at specific crossroad points in our muscles done up to 5x/day for 30 seconds a pop
You have to know what Jawbreakers you need!
Re-Inventing Chronological Age is a process of turning back Muscular Age, so exercise toddler-like for young acting muscles!
