The posterior chain includes one of the largest and most powerful muscles in the body, the glutes, which power the majority of explosive movements such as jumping, squatting, sprinting, and changing direction! The posterior chain forms the link between the lower back, glutes and hamstrings which are responsible for explosive power needed for athletics If you think that you’re unable to run as fast or jump as high as you can, it must be because of weak and undertrained posterior muscles. Developing power and speed through better glute and lat engagement in these points will translate into athletic movements such as sprinting, jumping, pulling, pushing, and squatting. Having a strong posterior chain also means improved stabilization in your ankles, knees, hips and spine. #sportsperformance #training #yourperformancetrainer #arizona #scottdale #exersice #exercisemotivation
