The Epistemology of Exercise: Bracing
#2
My thoughts, completely uncensored.

This is one of the most bizarre first posts I've seen on a message board, ever. I say this because:
1.) I cannot tell if there is an honest question beneath all this. (My first thought was this might be a spam post... Sorry - just being honest here. Smile Smile Smile )
2.) I cannot tell what the purpose of this inquiry would be, except to drive a mind focused on teasing out details, regardless of the utility of such. (Maybe I missed it, but I'm not sure why this is important, in particular... Sad )

To me, it seems quite obvious as to why one would uncover so many cues concerning how to brace "the core for optimal stability/strength/performance/safety:" Each situation could very well require a different activation strategy, and thus, a coach might employ a different verbal cue. For instance, safety and performance are not synonymous, and sometimes expression of strength (moving a maximal load over a distance) might not equate to the greatest level of stability (as movement implies some amount of instability).
