Low Back Challenge a.k.a “Prone Double Straight Leg Isometric Raise Test”

httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=toLffDaqJ2s

Would you like to test yourself in a low back challenge?  The low back challenge or more specifically the “Prone Double Straight Leg Isometric Raise Test” can discover the strength (or weakness) of your back extensors and predict low back pain potential.  Watch the video above to get the instructions for the test and watch as I take the test.  Below are the main muscles that are tested in this low back challenge.

Are you aware that in today’s world low back pain affects 70 – 80% of the population with at least one occurrence during their lifetime?  The back extensor involved with trunk muscle endurance will “make it or break it.”  These trunk muscles control posture and lumber spine forward bending.  Studies show significant decrease in back extensor endurance and a decrease in abdominal muscular endurance in patients with low back pain.

Therefore, patients with low back pain need to be very careful when selecting exercises and performing core training as they can have a loss of muscle control from trunk muscle fatigue, which is a cause of low back pain.
[ad]
On the back side of things, exercising trunk muscle endurance and abdominal muscular endurance are important for preventing back pain.  An example of this would be doing supine double straight leg isometric holds at 20 degrees and even doing Leg Lifts.

On the front side of things, the prone double straight leg isometric raise test has been shown to be one of the most accurate tests in evaluating back health.  This test isolates the lumbar spine multifidus muscle, which is known to cause back pain (when it is weak).  This test can predict back pain by testing the endurance of the back extensor.

Alicia Weber sets 30 Minute Pullup World Record for 4th time and Adds Squats

Strength and Endurance, World Record Weber WORLD RECORDS!, , , , , , , , ,

By:  Weber Way to Wellness Reporter Click here to visit JD Productions.

CLERMONT, FL – On January 30, 2011, Alicia Weber sets her first world record of 2011.  Alicia set her 30-minute pull up world record for the 4th time and it was done in rare form!  Alicia says she needed an extra challenge, so she did squats and pullups in the SAME 30 minutes.  The Results:  Alicia performed 419 pullups and 61 squats in the SAME 30 minutes (breaking her former stand alone pullup world record by 21 reps).  Alicia’s squats were performed with arms held straight out and legs coming to 90′ or breaking 90′ on all reps.

Alicia calls this her most strategically challenging world record (out of the now 44 world records she set).  What was it like setting this world record?

Alicia says, “It was not only muscularly challenging as I had to do a minimum of 14 pullups per minute to break my former record (and no less than 10 reps/minute with the squats), but it was also aerobically challenging with the 61 squats.  I had a steady heart rate of 170 – 180 beats per minute.  Without squats, it could drop to 130 beats per minute.   I was really huffing and puffing as you can see in the video below.  There are 3 camera views required chin view, front full body view, and side full body view.  I had to stay mentally alert with perfect form as I went from squats to pullups also.”

Then a week later – MORE WORLD RECORDS…On February 8, 2011, Alicia pushed out her 2nd world record of 2011 in the 30-minutes of Pushups where she did 829 reps.

No matter if you are a fencer, kickboxer, kata competitor, wrestler, boxer, or any other type of martial arts competitor – one thing is shared by all and that is SPARRING!! At some point in the training phase, sparring and sparring drills will come into play to keep one’s game on PAR.

Any fighter knows aerobics and strength are key, but other components need to be developed as well. Today we will briefly touch up on the 4 Key Components of Martial Arts Conditioning. It is really important to work all 4 components in each serious martial arts conditioning session. Those components should be followed in this order:
1.) Speed/Quickness/Reactive Ability – the most sensitive with fatigue accumulation and that’s why it should be first.
2.) Strength – after the former, the muscles are triggered for strength moves
3.) Endurance – at this time the workout becomes challenging and it trains the muscles to endure, which will be imperative for fights
4.) Flexibility – best improved when the body is warm (static stretching can tend to temporarily weaken muscles due to reduced overlap in muscle sarcomere – even more reason to end with flexibility)

So have you been covering the 4 components in your training sessions?

Do you need some martial arts conditioning in Central Florida? If so, you can contact Alicia at Awinningway@gmail.com and put “fitness” in subject line.

I kicked off my competitive season on Feb 6, 2011, at the 2011 Southern Sprints Indoor Rowing Championship in Melbourne, Florida. I shaved a second off my time in the 500m dash and took 4th place in a close race. 2nd, 3rd, and 4th place were all within points of a second from each other, while the winner was 3 seconds ahead.

Watch Alicia Weber in Pre-Race Bicep Flexing followed by her 500m Dash!

Next up, I visited what is to be for years to come the World Class Rowing Center in Sarasota, Florida, at Nathan Benderson Park.  This is a fabulous flat water 2,000m outdoor rowing course surrounded by a 5 mile trail.  I cycled along the trail as I videoed the lake and flexed my bicep (as I held the camera in the other hand). 

Watch Alicia Weber bicep flexing and showing the rowing center, while cycling (and holding the camera in the other hand).

Coach Johnny Deltoid Interviews Senior Runner (from Rehab to Winning Races)

By: Track Coach – Johnny Deltoid

Coach Johnny Deltoid is a die hard track fan, track coach, and runner of many years.  His wife of 7 years is also in love with running.  Together they eat, sleep, talk, drink, and run!  Coach Deltoid is fascinated by a senior that couldn’t run from an injury, but through the right rehab and determination he is now running and winning!!  Coach Deltoid interviews this successful senior runner!

1.) Coach Deltoid:  So you ran your first race in 10 years.  What rekindled your flame to race again?
1.) Senior Runner:  I got some new friends that do races and I thought I would jump in my new age group and see what happens.
2.) Coach Deltoid:  A year ago a big decision needed to be made to get a surgery or not get a surgery.  Tell us about that..
2.) Senior Runner:  I had a Grade 2 Rectus Femoris M. partial tear.  I chose NOT to get surgery.  I decided to work under the tutelage of Alica Weber, where I was given a series of exercises to expand my range of motion in my knee joint and undergo light low impact strengthening.  It was the best decision to make and I am back up and running!
3.) Coach Deltoid:  Could you imagine yourself in ’09 (when the injury took place) ever running again?
3.) Senior Runner:  No, it was questionable that I would even be able to run.
4.) Coach Deltoid:  Which exercises that Alicia gave you helped you most?
4.) Senior Runner:  Gliding Disc flexibility training definitely helped, but it was a combination of many exercises and using Skecher Shoes and using Ultra-Sound before exercise. The real test was being able to run, which I passed in Feb 2010 when I ran a 200m on grass in 50 seconds.
5.) Coach Deltoid:  Once you knew you could run again, what was your next challenge?
5.) Senior Runner:  I wanted to run a 400m on the track and I completed it in 1:40.  I just decided to jump into a 5k race for the first time “cold turkey”.  I ran the whole time and finished in 32:30 for 3rd place in my 60-65 age group.  So, I am running with the Big Turkeys now!  So the success spurred me on for the next race where I lowered my time to 29 minutes!  I hope to do one 5k race every month now!
Senior Runner: From Rehab not being able to run to Running and Winning
5.) Senior Runner: From Rehab not being able to run to Running and Winning

  
6.) Coach Deltoid:  What kinds of recommendations do you give for a person with Grade 2 Rectus Femoris M. partial tear or to one with a  similar knee problem?

6.) Senior Runner:  I would highly recommend getting a pair of Skecher Shoes.  If you are older with muscle imbalances and in need of ankle strengthening, they will help with all of it.  They will help with strengthening the ankles and ligaments in the knees in a way that you can’t get elsewhere.  You are sure-footed with them!  I run and train in my Skechers Men’s Shape Ups Lace-Up,Black,8.5 M
ReliaMed 1Mhz Portable Home Ultrasound Physical Therapist Massage Machine & FREE China Gel Sample is another MUST.  I used ultra-sound 2 x day for 15 mins each time for 6-months.  I always use it before exercise and then again after exercise.  You don’t know if it is working or not, but very suddenly it rebuilds the bone and tissues.

Aerobic Capacity Wellness Awareness Weeks with Alicia Weber

We are currently underway with the first weeks of 13 for the Fitness Makeover here in Central Florida where almost 30 participants are enrolled to improve their physical fitness. We begin with becoming aware of the importance of aerobic capacity wellness. There are two ways to assess aerobic capacity wellness: (1.) A direct assessment of the maximal oxygen consumption (VO2max) and (2.) An indirect assessment with rigorous exercise measuring heart rate in response to a given workload. We are reviewing # 2 and over the next weeks, personal clients, fitness makeover participants, and I will be testing aerobic capacity wellness in very unconventional ways!

The conventional ways (and standard ways) to test aerobic capacity through indirect assessment are by any of the following: 1. Rockport Walk Test, 2. 1.5 mile run/walk test, 3. 12-minute run test, 4. Treadmill Tests, 5. Bicycle Tests, and 6. Queens College Step Test. Now, we WON’T be doing any of these tests in our review.

We will NOT be “testing”, but rather trying unconventional exercises that are highly aerobic and evaluating their effectiveness based on the results of improving strength, aerobic capacity, and speeding up metabolism, and stimulating fat loss. The exercises that give the best overall results will be announced at a later date…So Stay Tuned!

In the meantime, GET ENERGIZED as Alicia Weber puts her aerobic capacity wellness to the test in a high intensity aerobic dance with strength moves!

Do you have a favorite aerobic exercise? If so, let us know by leaving a comment below.

Thanks and Keep Huffing and Puffing,
