I was certified in Square1 in Jul 2023 have only been applying it for a few weeks. I can’t count the number of athletes that I have been able to help. The results have been absolutely incredible!! To quote Shawn Sherman “The future of Human Performance is right here!”

10% of your muscular action is voluntary and the other 90% is reflective. Most people spend the majority of their time worried about the 10%. Why wouldn’t you train the other 90%? Here Piper is making sure the joints of her feet can tolerate and redirect the force.

A Coach says I’m done with the barbell warm-up. I said cool, let’s do @RPR_system and get after it. The Coach says I don’t believe in that stuff. I walked into the Weightroom, showed the students and they’re all in 100%. My job is to educate my students and make them better.

Focus on Derek’s front foot (right foot) in both of these short clips. After Set 1 we used hand-flips to increase activation of the cerebellum. That’s the part of the brain that’s responsible for ABC’s (accuracy balance and coordination). Then notice the difference in Set 2.🧠

If you can’t get into a position and/or hold proper posture statically then how will you ever be able to do it under a load or in life or sport dynamically? There’s more to athletics and life than how much weight you can lift.
