KEY POINTS, Links & Actions
Here are some key points that I would advise you to concentrate on:Martial arts are brilliant, but can be very destructive to our bodies. To train a long time, we need to look after our bodies, and rehab and physical preparedness are the tools to let us do that.Mike spent some times when he was youngercross-training. Training multiple different demands can help you cognitively learn skills faster and easier, and have transferable movement patterns and bonuses from one sport to the other.If we understand our bodies and where we are strong and weak, we can then prep our rehab and prehab methods to strengthen our weaker parts, to allow us to recover faster and train for longer years. "from an injury prevention standpoint we want to be training the joints in the planes where they're gonna be injured. So you take a shoulder. The shoulder typically gets injured from a rotation. So you should be including some type of rotational training for your shoulder, right? You look at the knee. Knee injuries are often either a degree of freedom the knee doesn't go, which is the frontal plane, like some collapse on their knee, or they're rotational based. You should be probably incorporating some type of rotational knee training into your program. If your goal is injury prevention"Today's healing modalities are not really designed for combat sports, we tend to be told to stop doing the thing that hurt us by a doctor, but repetitve strains, bumps etc are part of training, so we need to prehab our bodies to survive the demands of the sport, and experts like Dr Mike are the perfect experts to show you how! You are unique to everyone else - so your rehab plan should be unique to you too! A pain doesn't necessarily mean it is a body problem, it can also be a skill problem that is causing the issue! "I define joint health And it's not ah things that people are gonna be able to reproduce from this video, but essentially is I want a joint to be able to move in every degree of freedom it can without pain and compensation. And the range of motion quantity is gonna be based on what you need to be doing. Meaning, so you take the shoulder, the shoulder moves in every degree of freedom means it goes in the sagittal plane, in the frontal plane, and then the rotational plane. So I have to make sure it can do that.A lot of times when people are we're doing that, they're trying to rotate their shoulder and they're getting compensation somewhere else, which essentially means that they are unable to do that, right? So we already know it gives us idea. Maybe they're not doing it because they've never done it and they've just that their shoulders lost that capacity. Maybe it hurts because they have an injury. There's some people like that's pretty common with people who have a lot of, maybe they do a lot of yoga, they do a lot of stretching, but they don't have great control they don't have great body control. So their joints can move really well, but they can't control themselves. "Lead life by your brain ... not your ego! Don't wait till an injury or issue becomes a serious problem, get some solutions now, do some specific prehab, grapple and win! Don't lose out to an injury that could have been prevented!  The key areas aff...
