Strength is the ability to produce the required amount of force to accomplish a given task. Most life and sporting tasks are variable, creating a need for using 4Q to achieve strength outcomes. From LLT Benefits are:• Greater recruitment of Type II fibers• Ideal for Hypertrophy and Max Strength •Intramuscular coordination. As a side note: Maximal Strength Training enhances our ability to produce maximal force, While there are numerous benefits to Max Strength Training, it should be reserved for someone who has 3 months of conditioning and has built adequate coordination, stability and strength with patterns used for Maximal Strength Training. Since this is our 4th week working together -To lower the risk of Maximal Strength Training, we are using Submax training, which involves an intensity of 85-95% (estimated 3-6 reps of a 1 rep max).

AHHPS - Full Body Activation Example #1
Horizontal Loading
This Block is intended to be used to up-regulate the system by:
1- Influencing 'Fluid Dynamics' (blood, water, lymph) to properly set the tissue conditions for loading and/or recovery
2- Stimulating 'Small Motor Unit Recruitment' (SMUR) to up-regulate type 1 motor units for optimal arthrokinematic (i.e. joint movement) and joint centration (i.e. having the joint be at the right place, at the right time)
3- Up-regulate 'Excitation' to up and down regulate motor units to increase contraction sensitivity
4- Provide sensory-motor 'Stimulation' for eyes, ears (vestibular), and tactile proprioception to bath the system with sensory inputs
