Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
Revised and expanded edition! Improve your athletic performance, extend your athletic career, treat body stiffness and achy joints, and rehabilitate injuries - all without having to seek out a coach, doctor, chiropractor, physical therapist or masseur. In Becoming a Supple Leopard , Kelly Starrett - founder of MobilityWod.com - shares his revolutionary approach to mobility and maintenance of the human body and teaches you how to hack your own human movement, allowing you to live a healthy, happier, more fulfilling life.
Includes index.
Based on the premise that dysfunctional movement patterns impede athletic performance, the author presents the construction and function of his own movement and mobility system, based on his midline stabilization and organization, one-joint rule and laws of torque movement principles, all to remedy body stiffness, prevent injuries and improve and extend athletic capabilities.
Preface to the expanded and updated edition -- Midline stabilization and organization (spinal mechanics) -- One-joint rule -- Laws of torque -- Body archetypes -- Movement hierarchy -- Mobility: a systematic approach -- Category movements -- Mobilization target areas -- Mobility prescriptions.
