Basics are defined as the essential facts or principals of a subject or skill.
Our subject is Total Fitness and in my experience there are three interrelated points that need to be addressed before one can even get started on the path to physical health. These are the essential facts, the must have knowledge for developing a body that will kick ass, take names and look good doing it. This body will not only enjoy and endure the capricious indulgences of youth but will sustain you and keep going strong into the later years of life.
The three three concepts that one must be aware of, gain knowledge about, then master the principals of are:
- Skeletal Alignment or Posture
- Stability within and between the joints
- Improve and maintain flexibility
That's why I always try to get you started with the ATOMIC Push Up. It moves the spine, opens the hips and shoulders and begins to introduce stability to the shoulders and spinal column. Please watch the video above. I want you to get familiar with this move. There is a lot to deconstruct and I'll be posting more about it in the future.
