Exploring the Essential Features of “Foundations of Linear Speed: Why Everyone Should Run – Tony Mikla – PESI”
Linear speed drives all the movements and behaviors we coach everyday: gait, balance, lunge, step up, stairs, and of course running. When you break down the mechanics, needs for mobility vs. stability, and patterns of sprinting – you can glean critical insights for all of the patients you treat. In this recording, we’ll establish a map of exercise progressions that go from a basic state of movement through advanced with specific clinical drills you can implement right away. This protocol is guaranteed to provide movement improvement with a long-lasting impact.
