Switch the muscle
back on.

Your client's glutes, back or neck extensors test weak, and more strengthening does not fix it. Often the nervous system has switched them off. In seven free videos David shows you the inputs that switch them back on, and how to test that it worked, in the same session.

What you learn

Seven ways in to the extensors.

One theme, the muscles along the back of the body, and the different inputs that switch them back on. Watch a lesson, try it with your next client.

  1. 01
    The eyes and the extensorsHow the visual system helps switch the extensor muscles on.
  2. 02
    The balance systemUsing the vestibulo-colic reflex, the link between the inner ear and the neck.
  3. 03
    Static stretchingStretching as a signal to the nervous system, not only as lengthening.
  4. 04
    PiezoelectricityUsing pressure and tapping as an input to the tissue.
  5. 05
    Stacking inputsCombining the vestibulo-colic reflex with the deep tendon reflex.
  6. 06
    Stacking, example 2Vestibulo-colic reflex, deep tendon reflex and piezoelectricity together.
  7. 07
    Stacking, example 3Eye movements (saccades), deep tendon reflex and piezoelectricity.

Why it matters

The back of the body stops firing.

Why

Strength is not the problem

When an extensor tests weak, the muscle is usually there. The signal is not. Clients compensate, and the same back, hip or neck complaint comes back every week.

What

Inputs, not more reps

The eyes, the balance system, a stretch or a tap can each switch a muscle back on. The class shows you each one, then how to stack them.

How

Test, input, re-test

Test the muscle, apply the input, test again. You and your client see the change in the same session.
