Mobility and Speed Workshop | Ivan Hui

ABOUT THIS EVENT

This workshop will showcase different ways to improve the mobility of joints in your lower body, and prepare your muscles for speed and force output. There will be an emphasis on injury prevention and incorporating warmups to your current activities.

• Mobilize the feet, ankles and hips for better stability and movement through weight transfer

• Activate the core for essential and athletic contralateral patterns such as walking, running, striking and throwing

• Prepare joints and tissues for speed work by improving elastic potential, using dynamic drills and rhythm

• Put together the elements and approach to speed training (we will only do very short starts, and stay within a range of 40-80% output)

• Optional: Hill training to strengthen and generate power through hip extension, and build cardiovascular endurance

Key Takeaways:

• Mobilization routine that improves joint capacity to add to warmups before running, exercise or other activities

• Learning and exploring the relationship between the core and hips for stabilization during running

• Building blocks for incorporating sprints + hills to your training

Guest appearance from Axis Therapy & Performance featuring Dr. Claire Bacareza and Emma Schotanus.
