PRI Skill # 1.5: Overcoming Resistance

In order to get off our right side (skill #1) or shift appropriately into left AF/IR (skill #2) we have to be able to overcome internal resistance provided by our own neuromuscular system. You have to overcome yourself.

Muscular restriction is necessary for normal human movement. Without resistance being provided (tone) we would have nothing to stabilize us and no base of support from which to propel ourselves forward.

Our necessary resistance, the type that builds and releases, can become problematic when the resistance builds but never releases. We develop "restriction" and that restriction has to be overcome or it will prevent us from unloading our right side or shifting into left AF/IR

Hey there, my name is Neal Hallinan.

The purpose of this channel is to help people understand and resolve chronic muscular and joint pain, primarily through the discipline of Postural Restoration.

As someone who lived with chronic pain for many years of my life, I know how debilitating and isolating it can be. But I also know it can be resolved.

I hold the following credentials:
Postural Restoration Trained (PRT)
Strength and Conditioning Coach (CSCS)
Licensed Massage Therapist (LMT)
Amateur Historian (AH, my own self-designation)

I live and work in the great state of New Jersey, USA.

I offer one-on-one training as well as online consultations via Skype. Feel free to e-mail me at Nealhallinan@gmail.com for more info.
