Leg-adductor & 'straddle' stretching
BW leg-abduction range & forms
•
2m 25s
THE WHAT & HOW:
In the process of developing lower-body, 'large-frame' mobility forms (e.g. 'splits' & 'pancake'), we bring attention to the necessity of also "accustoming" to those ranges.
During more "potent" contexts of practice, such as loaded stretching and extended, bodyweight isometrics, we might achieve a certain depth, but it does not represent what is available & "allowed" to us on a DAILY basis by our nervous systems.

The Cossack Squat (Low Gait Opener)
THE WHAT:
The 'Cossack squat' is a fundamental mobility tool for developing range in leg abduction. Further, it is an introduction to exploring the 'low-gait' position which brings us toward the mid-level, and ultimately into the floor once fully developed. Endlessly giving, easily adjusted & int... -
Hinging 'straddle-bow'
THE WHAT & HOW:
A progressive leg-abductor and hamstring range-development context. Performed from standing, it is also accessible for those who cannot effectively utilise floor-seated, or even elevated, contexts for similar range-development (i.e. 'Pancake' forms).Further to contributing to de...

Basic '("Northern") Horse-stance' & '...
THE WHAT:
Fundamental isometric forms for strengthening leg-abduction ranges, namely in frontal-plane ('horse-stance' and 'middle-split') and sagittal-plane ('front-splits'). For some, consistent practice of these forms with only phasic adjustments to variables alone can be enough to achieve a fu...
