THE WHAT (SCAPULAR-PUSHUP):
An upper-body mobilization, neuro-muscular & strength-development context form which expresses straight-arm scapular/strength (SAS/S), in horizontal pushing.
Structurally, it represents and practices a global "hollow" of the body (slight flexion from head-to-toes, like a shallow dish) combined with a strongly-protracted shoulder position (a natural curvature across the upper-back from pushing the body AWAY from the floor, effectively pulling the scapulae into close connection with the torso).

From knee-raise to knee-to-bar
THE WHAT & HOW:
Linear progressions for developing strength & patterning for straight-arm pulling, incorporating both straight-arm scapular-strength (SASS) and straight-arm strength (SAS).Particularly from the initial 'Knee-raise' progression, the ultimate objective should be kept in mind throu...

Loaded-carrying contexts
THE WHAT:
Lifting a heavy load, and walking. Two fundamental facts of life which, at first glance, can seem of insufficient intensity to compare to the likes of a 'Back squat' or 'Deadlift' - but there is a reason why forms of loaded-carrying are a staple of all 'Strongman' events.The load can ...
