Animal Flow: The Benefits of Quadrupedal Movement Presented by: Mike Fitch, Creator of Animal Flow & President of Global Bodyweight Training AFPA October 2014

Why “Animal Flow?” Animal: Experience movement as the HUMAN ANIMAL Flow: Integrated, fluid, multi-planar transfer of energy

Functional Training So, what exactly is this “Functional Training?”

Functional Training Mike’s Definition: training a client to reach specific goals or address specific issues, such injuries or postural distortions , while improving their ability to perform at their work, sport, hobby or day to day life

Reconnecting Our Bodies to the Ground

Our Teacher: The Ground

Ground Reaction Force Be aware and conscious of our GRF Minimize impact Dissipate forces through the kinetic chain

The Single Plane Human

The Neuromuscular Superhighway Connection to the ground Kinetic chains Slings

Multi-Planar Movement

Benefits of Animal Flow STRENGTH POWER ENDURANCE COORDINATION STABILITY FLEXIBILITY SPEED AGILITY

Benefits of Animal Flow Improved movement = Improved function Increasing intermuscular coordination and neuromuscular efficiency Improving mobility, flexibility and stability through multiple planes of motion Utilizing maximum oxygen consumption and caloric expenditure Increased cardiovascular response

Program Integration Dynamic Warm-Up Interval Training / HIIT Circuit and Strength Training Stand Alone or Integrated Assessment Correction

Animal Flow Components Wrist Mobilizations Form Specific Stretches Activations Traveling Forms Switches & Transitions Flows

Wrist Mobilizations Increase extensibility / flexibility at the wrists Movement Preparation Body Scan / Connection

Sample Wrist Mobs

Form Specific Stretches Full end points of Range of Motion (ROM) (flexion followed by extension; internal rotation followed by external rotation) May be used as statics, active dynamics, or conditioning (multiple reps) Quick check - movement assessment

The Crab Reach

Activations Preparing the body, reconnecting systems: Static Beast Static Crab Progressively increase the challenge by systematically decreasing the base of support: Limb lift

Beast Activations

Traveling Forms “The ABCs of Animal Movements” Crawling into dynamic stabilization

Forward Traveling Beast

Switches and Transitions Movement Windows Conditioning Integration into strength programs

Underswitch

Flows Seamless transfer of energy “Call-Outs” versus “Flows” Vary forms, temp, duration
