3/3. Form Tips
I believe the knowledge should be free.

And for 6+ years my job has been making coaching affordable.

: Programs with form-coaching under 24 hours, 7 days a week, for $49.50/month, with no contract and 1/2 off the first month so you can see how you like it

: With coaches now around the world, there may even be one near you who’s available for in-person training!

: All the unusual tools I’ve been creating to help make the ATG system more user-friendly

: The foot-inspired shoes I wear

THANK YOU for making this possible!ATGonlinecoaching.com

🧵 The Slant Squat For Strong Legs & Healthy Knees

-Why?
-How to scale to any level
-CONTEXT

[FYI: Our kids slant is FREE if you coach young athletes. Just write in to with your story and shipping address. And I don’t just mean a one time giveaway. We’re going to see if we can maintain this.

For anyone else to purchase it’s only $24 for members and $30 for non-members, still the best price I’ve seen for a strong slant.]ATGequipment.comImage
(Thank you for bearing with me as I post. I’ve lost countless hours having threads fail to upload. So I apologize for posting one segment at a time. 🙏)
So, why a slant?

You don’t “need” a slant.

This is great. Image

🧵 CSU Fitness Regimen #1

These are 10 basics I will NOT be forcing on my kids. Rather: setting an example myself while gradually teaching them as part of their school system.

[Common Sense University is the humorous but real name of the school I’m creating for my kids.] Image
1/10. Wall Calf Raise: 20 reps - two legs makes it easier

Rather than starting with push ups and pull ups, we’re going to learn to strengthen from the ground up.
2/10. Wall Tib Raise: 20 reps - closer makes it easier

We’re going to learn to strengthen both sides of the body - no weak links.

2 Modern Hip Problems & Solutions

Lots of interest on this lately, so slowing it down and clarifying. 👍

1. Modern body doesn’t sit in deep squat like it naturally would.

2. Modern body DOES sit in chair 8-10 hours a day.

So it’s not “chair bad” - it’s just excessive…
1. Lack of deep squat = inner hips stiff and weak relative to natural proportions of body

2. Excess sitting = front hips stiff and weak relative to natural proportions of body

These problems don’t “sit right” with the knees and lower back.

Fortunately, the solutions WORK…

Image
1. ATG (deep) Seated Goodmorning progression

Grandparents consistently win with it.

Pro athletes consistently win with it.

It scales to any level and improves inner hip/thigh strength and flexibility at the exact same time (while strengthening low back w/ ultra control.)

CSU Physical Fitness Regimen

[Common Sense University is the humorous but real name of the school system I’m making for my own kids.]

1/10. Tibialis Raise x 20

-back off wall
-knees don’t bend
-pause 1 second at top and bottom

Standing closer makes it easier 👍
2/10. Wall Calf Raise x 20/side

-leg straight
-pause 1 second at top and bottom

Two legs makes it easier 👍
3/10. Nordic x 10

(A pad for knees + parent holding heels = works great!)

-work to control down
-push back up

This one pays off BIG over YEARS of consistency. Once a week is my advice.

Notice how I can now control my knee’s entire range = more protection. Simple physics!

How My Mom ATG Split Squats at 70 vs How I Do in My 30s

Youth = Flexibility
Adulthood = Strength
Aging/Injury = Loss of Both

But you can improve both at the exact same time…

My mom starts front foot elevated, using the poles to balance…
(Before she had a mobility box, she used a stairwell. Works great!)
