Core-Tex™

Take a "known" exercise to the reactive environment of Core-Tex and you get a much more comprehensive experience.  This version of the Curtsy Lunge can be used as a gentle mobility warm-up or ramped to a high-intensity reactive exercise.  With the transverse plane motion of Core-Tex, you get:

1.  Rotational demand on the glute/hip complex

2. The need to accelerate, decelerate and re-accelerate rotation from the hip

3.  Challenge rotational stability at the knee as the foot and lower move faster and arrive earlier and stay later than the hip

4.  Thoracic spine rotational mobility as the upper body is fixed while pelvis rotates below.

5.  Reactive variability at all involved joints as each repetition is different based on the motion of Core-Tex. 

Pain is a complex experience.  Along with the biomechanical/biological elements, the psychological and social influences around expectations, beliefs, coaches, teammates, etc. all influence the body's response.  For the athlete, chronic pain related to their sport can be devastating.  

Golf is a prime example of a sport with a highly consistent movement pattern.  If that movement pattern produces pain or interferes with the preferred pattern- performance suffers. 

This video will show how John Sinclair, Performance Coach from The Hive performance center in Davie, Florida took his Division 1 golfer from FSU back to 100% using the environment created by Core-Tex. 

The thoracic spine is a key link in all sport rotational requirements. Limitations will transfer responsibilities to places that are not designed to rotate the same (like the lower back). Using Core-Tex to create rotation in a novel way-from the bottom up changes the input to the nervous system and creates opportunity for significant improvement.  Sprinkle in the variability of the platform and you have a very powerful way to improve thoracic rotation!
Those pesky hamstrings where everyone feels tight and no one likes to stretch. Let's go beyond the limited sagittal plane only stretching and experience how we can lengthen and load the tissue in multiple vectors. Target muscles fibers that you would never get on your own or even with the help of a therapist!

Either you golf, you work with golfers or you will work golfers.  There are 24 million golfers in the US alone.  Want to stand out from the crowd and provide them with advantages no other product can offer?

Then take a look at how Core-Tex inventor, Anthony Carey demonstrates an incredibly effective way to improve swing range of motion AND power with the same motion.  Applying principles of Applied Functional Science from the Gray Institute, Anthony shows how to incrementally "load and explode" through all of the transformational zones.

If you really want optimal shoulder health, than the dance that the scapula does on the back of your rib cage is the motion that dictates the playing field.  In this video, we take a very fit professional personal trainer, with a history of a distal left pectoralis tear-through a full protocol of scapulo-thoracic mobility and integration.

We have the honor of sharing with you some hip rehab applications sent to us by physical therapist Bryce Taylor.  Bryce shares with us:

"I have a unique opportunity to capture overhead views at my clinic and for the Core-Tex, this makes sense.  I've been working with this gentleman for several hip-related cases to restore functional mobility and return him to competitive distance running.  He has had surgeries for labral tears and hip impingement.  In this case, the Core-Tex has aided in self-administered and guided multi-planar end range of motion of the hip and lower kinetic chain.  I like that they can freely explore within the limits of their own subjective boundaries and that, I believe, can have more impact than passive motion."

Here is a great example of how the rotational component of the Core-Tex is superior to any other product in producing the functional movement(s) that correlate with the activity.  

Using these 3 simple moves, rotation is increased at both the hips and thoracic spine, heat is brought to the tissue and the nervous system is excited in golf related movements.
