Jody Secules of CoreFocused enjoyed participating in
an Athletic conditioning on the V2 Max Plus Reformer workshop
with STOTT PILATES Master Instructor Trainer, PJ O'Clair.
PJ made a good observation, "that most athletes are
tight and stuck in their sport". The closed chain,
highly proprioceptive exercise possibilities on the V2
Max Plus reformer allow athletes as well as non athletes
to find their stabilizer muscles while getting a great
workout, addressing the whole body, not just one part
of it. CoreFocused offers training on the V2 Max Plus
Reformer as well as the whole suite of Pilates apparatus
& mat offerings. |

Jody Secules attended a 3 day workshop with Aaron Mattes
on his Active Isolated Stretching Method
and Assisted Isolated Stretching method that yields profound
results. Over the past 35 years Aaron Mattes has been refining
a muscle specific stretching method that incorporates no
more than a 2 second stretch and release and 10 repetitions.
During each 2 second stretch each specific muscle &
related fascia stretches without the stretch reflex triggering
a constriction of blood flood and progress. With each gradual
stretch, the range of the joint increases, pathways are
opened, nourishing the muscles with blood & oxygen,
wastes are removed, healing is enhanced with regards to
rehab. This type of stretching method can be utilized before
or after cardiovascular activity. Active isolated stretching
enhances a Pilates workout. Full range of joints - Flexibility
& Stability with Strength means optimal power in sports.
Increased range of joints in regards to rehab plus a strength
component means improved quality of life. Active Isolated
Stretching & Pilates are methods of increasing power
in sports as well as improving quality of Life with regards
to rehabilitation. |
