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.

Seems more like a balance demand than a SLS but I agree either way!
Is there not a balance demand in a SLS? One compenent to many variables. Great illustration, Vern
SLS isn't a balance demand?!?
TC
I was not separating the two just making the statement that in the picture the player with the ball most likely has a greater demand in balancing on one leg.
Yes performing SLS's help to improve this performance.
Not looking to swim in a shark tank here.
Great stuff Vern!
"On a basic level the idea of an athlete is to unbalance your opponent" -should'nt be a problem: )
