Techniques Beyond Muscle Movement: Ligament Activation and Its Methods
Unlock the Power of Ligaments—Surpassing Muscle Strength
Ligament training (Jin-Tore) is a revolutionary approach that intentionally creates instability to activate ligaments. This method enables movements that are faster and more powerful than those relying on muscles alone. Activated ligaments allow the body to move as a unified system, improve joint flexibility, reduce fatigue, and enhance efficiency.
In martial arts, ligament activation provides precise and explosive power that cannot be easily read by an opponent. This DVD introduces methods to differentiate between muscle-driven movement and ligament activation and guides you in easily experiencing and mastering ligament-based techniques.
