Functional Path Training: New Download - “Clearing the Kinetic Chain for the Throwing Shoulder”

Functional Path Training

The Functional Path is a path that had been traveled many times before but had fallen out of use in favor of smoother paved roads that promised faster and easier results. Seeking to follow and better define the functional path is a continuing journey, fortunately it is a journey that many have traveled before. Functional Path training is getting back to the basics of movement. It is learning to tune into the body and it’s inherent wisdom to produce rhythmic flowing movement.

Joe,

Great work! Nothing there that is really new as is usually the case but you do a great job of presenting your opinions/understanding of the process. To your credit you refused to give in on a tough case and make excuses. You kept searching for more answers because doesn't the body want to get well? To your credit you are not afraid to admit the mistakes made when really they were not all yours - you was doing a good job of doing as taught but it was the teacher that had it all wrong. THanks for sharing that with us and keeping challenging the world to do a better job at the basics.

If the coaches could see this and understand what you are saying I would be greatful. Thanks for putting it into easy terms.
