METHOD:Β Warding PatternsΒ
The physiological state of generating body-wide tension (stability) against an external force while maintaining the capacity to move. To our clients, we might describe most warding patterns as omnidirectional, vertical core training.Β
Benefits include:
- enhancing regional stability and strength against omnidirectional force
- improving neuro-myo-fascial sensitivity (which is a fancy way of saying improving our reactivity)
- increase neuromuscular activation
- improving core strength and stability in many positions
