Right Ankle Prone Straight Leg- 0 degrees
Left Ankle Prone Straight Leg- -2 degrees (yes that is a minus as in negative)
Right Ankle Prone Bent Leg- 2 degrees
Left Ankle Prone Bent Leg- 4 degrees

The ideal for these measurements is about 15-20 degrees. You need 12 degrees of dorsiflexion to stand with a neutral position in your lumbo-pelvic-hip- complex (LPHC) and @ 15 degrees to be able maintain neutral when walking….I am not even close so the alignment of my pelvis and lumbar spine must be way off! Based off of my movement assessments (on my You Tube Channel http://youtube.com/theericbeard) my left ankle is the primary source of dysfunction. I have spent most of my efforts on getting the ankle to move better and I feel better already. My forward lean is improved in my squat and there is less tension in my body overall. Ankle mobility is so important to human movement.

I do have some other goals as well. Here are my measurements and goals to reach by the end of Another Fitness Challenge;

I wrote out my goals clearly using the S.M.A.R.T. System and review them daily. I am also using the support from the HFPN/AFC chat room and contestants to stay on track. I have accountability to everyone that I have shared my goals with.

I hope you are all progressing with your health and fitness goals as well. Thanks for the support and feel free to comment below and share your goals.

Here are a few quick videos to try and answer some questions.

This is a funny 23 second clip that I shot tonight while I was buying food for my lab, Murphy, at the pet store.

This reminds me of the grind that most people are caught up in in “the real world”. A boring treadmill that doesn’t get you anywhere. Never mind that the poor guy that decides to join the race just gets repeatedly trampled by the fella who is laser focuses on working harder…not smarter…This video represents so many things for me, I can’t believe that I just shot this at the pet store, I just thought it was cool to see this little guy bombing around and then the other guy just hurls himself right on the wheel! Is this real life or what??? Never mind how this relates to our clients!

Don’t get caught on the treadmill struggling to get nowhere!

And don’t run other people over on the way…lift them up! Move, touch and inspire them! that is our call. NASM Pro is a powerful vehicle that will multiply our efforts and the ATeam, the organization that I am starting is going to lead the way.

I have invested countless hours and tens of thousands of dollars into my education, and continue to do so every single day with topics like; human movement, corrective exercise, biomechanics…but also personal and professional development, marketing, psychology, Internet marketing (there was 7,700,000 hits for “personal trainer” on Google today…were you one of those? I have so much to share with you and as out team grows you can push content up to the rest of our group and share what you know too! We can really support each other.

Do you want to leverage your time and efforts? Work smarter not harder? Then join the ATeam and let’s make a bigger difference together!

Feel free to share this site with others and please let me know if you have any questions, even better, send me an email or leave a comment and I will make sure to email you before this thing kicks off to everyone else. Remember…to join the team, you must sign up under my code!

Short list of NASM PRO features; brand new exercise library, anatomy library, updated research library, a safe and legal way to individualize nutrition and supplement plans for your clients and enjoy a revenue sharing program with products like bands, balls, rollers and supplements sold to your clients (or bought for yourself) through the site, and the killer ATeam section I will be running JUST FOR US!!!!

It will be easier to help more people and make more money with this system.

In the mean time, I will use this blog to start coaching the team for FREE. I will have another post up for you by Tuesday morning at the latest.

Feel free to post comments or ask questions and share with others.

That’s it for tonight for me!

Change a life!
