Probably close to 20 yrs. ago is when I first ran across the concept of the "serape effect." This preceded finding Tom Myers's "Anatomy Trains", and along the same time I found Mel Siff's "PNF" exercise programs, and preceded finding "biotensegrity models."

ALL of which I find related in the sense that they all helped me to better understand how to think about, as I sometimes simply phrase it, "how the body works" in the specific context of throwing/swinging.

Here's a link I cited and talked about quite a few yrs. back about the serape effect:

I think this latter citation does a very good job of outlining/describing this concept in ways that most can grasp pretty well.

Bottom line: It's always good to try to find guys alot smarter than you in an effort to help you become just a little smarter in those things that interest you!
