USA TU CABEZA PARA SER MÁS FUERTE: Reflejo tónico del cuello

USE YOUR HEAD TO BE STRONGER (LITERALLY): TONIC NECK REFLEX Yes, with this title I'm referring to using your head in the literal sense. Not to planning and being smart about the weight you use. When we analyze the best weightlifters in the world, we see that they all repeat very specific neck patterns, and that's what I wanted to delve into, because if most of them did it, it had to be for a reason. In this video, I present my conclusions, and at the end of this description, I've included the bibliography used. NOTE: As I repeat several times in the video, this is information that we must use wisely. Yes, we can make our lifts easier and more efficient, but above all, we must always train safely. I simply want us to understand why these athletes make these movements and how they manage to get the most out of them. ► BLOG http://powerexplosive.com/ ► SOCIAL MEDIA Twitter:   / explosiv0   Facebook: http://t.co/1p2bhDK9Tu Google+: https://plus.google.com/+Powerexplosive Instagram:   / powerexplosive   Basically, all these movements performed by the world's best athletes are closely related to what is called the "Tonic Neck Reflex" or "TNR." A high-level athlete knows how to instinctively use their head because practice has made them aware of it unconsciously and automatically. In this video, I will explain what the Symmetrical Tonic Neck Reflex and the Asymmetrical Tonic Neck Reflex are, and their application to different gestures, lifts, and movements, based on the data I've found and relating it to the athletes mentioned above. ► SOURCES Berntson, G.
