Ido Portal

so you have that goal in mind.

So you're also working a little bit like what Ido Portal says, like you're working on new neural patterns.

Like holding a planche is difficult and I'm in hand balancing courses and it's very difficult, but I get a crazy workout.

But when I go work out for an hour, I'm not thinking I'm gonna work my shoulders and work my abs.

We've got your headstand, frog stand, the squat.

Again, this is very basic stuff.

If you can do all of this in the book, then yeah, go and see Ido Portal.

Right.

Like, we were, you know, sitting, standing, bending, sleeping, some very basic, super important things.

But then I got introduced to the, some much more athletic ways of viewing the body when I, uh, I tore my hip doing something and found the work of Ido Portal, Santa Cruz Movement, where this, this circular, all these, uh, circular views of the body, uh, nourished my hips and knees, and I started to gain some capabilities I never thought I would have.

So I shifted towards that, but yet again, I, I did keep, 'cause I, I'm so hypermobile, I kept surpassing my limits.

So I learned more movement than I really needed, and at times, my foundation still got more shaky.

And I've gone to these areas where people are doing weird stuff, like old time strong man lifts.

And, uh, even you remember when like the movement culture stuff was really popular, uh, Ido Portal was blowing up and you're going to see in these areas where it looks like technique doesn't matter because they're just moving so much outside of the box.

It matters even more.

And people that are into that stuff and coaching it are like super, super specific about a lot of details.
