Dan John, a world renown strength coach and public speaker, goes over these points as my guest today. I first heard Dan speak over 8 years ago at a RKC Kettlebell certification. Simply put, he makes complicated exercise/ movements simple. We spent 2 days learning the Kettlebell Swing, Goblet Squats, the Plank, the Birddog and Turkish Get-up… I was doing them all wrong prior to going.
Learning the Birddog was like no other… have you ever done a Birddog that made you sweat? I hadn’t… that’s because I wasn’t creating enough tension.
Knowing when to turn tension on and off is important for strength, injury prevention and being able to relax. Dan goes into this concept as well as physical attributes needed to be a healthy, functioning weekend warrior.
