The difference is that when you run barefoot the muscles and tendons of youre feet take up the load and then after they take the load they spring back and propel you forward, youre foot is like a spring, you land on front foot then midfoot and then lightly land on youre heel so the muscles and tendons absorb the shock instead of cushion (I didnt enjoy running until i started running barefoot, once you get the technique right running becomes so much more fun, efficient, faster, and less painful)

@Lehmann108
@Lehmann108 Год назад
This is truly "old school" dragon boat technique that will destroy your shoulders. The problem is the top arm. When the top arm is extended like that it is only supported by the rotator cuff muscles which are very small and relatively weak. If you drive that top arm down from that extended position you eventually will injure yourself. Look at the best paddlers out there, the Tahitians, and you will see less rotation and less height on that top arm. With the top arm slightly bent and lower it is supported by the larger muscles around the shoulder and much less prone to injury.
@ryanbalmesdpt
@ryanbalmesdpt Год назад
Good to know. Thanks for the insight!
@vedere2
@vedere2 Год назад
EXACTLY! Plus, the combination of rotating and bending (hinging) to that extreme degree will greatly increase the probability of a lower back injury.

I’ve had this chair for a year and am ready to pitch it. Lumbar support is non-existent, the seat is extremely uncomfortable, you can feel the metal bars under the seat(I weigh less than 190 lbs) it’s like sitting on a rock. I thought I would adjust to it but no. Long term review don’t consider it unless you give it to someone you don’t like. 😂

@adelaideonaplane
@adelaideonaplane Год назад
I think they're referring to anchoring/engaging your lower body so you can add power to your strokes. Not entirely sure myself.
@ryanbalmesdpt
@ryanbalmesdpt Год назад
You got it. Physics wise, you'll have to use your legs and feet to "anchor" into the boat. This way when you pull on the paddle in the water the boat will move forward. How you brace your legs in the boat will all depend on preference (digging in the heel for hamstring activation vs pushing your knees out against the boat)
@artorchel2195
@artorchel2195 2 года назад
Curious as to how much weight you are put on the cable. Pulling the water probably is not too heavy and pulling higher weight might make things easier. Of course too much weight is going to slow down your exercise I would think.

Don't over extend your shoulders like that, it will give you shoulder injury especially where you use as your digging arm. Digging arm shouldn't be over extended. I follow your advice now it gives me shoulder pain.

Hey sorry to hear that. Many more variables to an injury. If it's a shoulder strain it should recover in a few weeks.

I recently bought the same too. Problem is I feel the seat is too far forward resulting in lower back arching somewhat. Very uncomfortable for lower back. Or, is it just me and my body type? Wife is ok with the chair. No adjustments for the seat to be moved back that I can see.
