Chapter Antirigidity Therapy Bring Dormant
Muscle to Fatigue
The last chapter explained that to have optimal posture you must free your postural muscles
from partial contraction This chapter emphasizes that to do this you must search your body
for these segments of dormant muscle and push them through their full range of motion
These full firm contractions should be held long enough to push the muscle to fatigue As soon
as fatigue is reached it should be followed by full relaxation This chapter will describe how to
use this new technique that call antirigidity therapy to reinstate motion diversity in your
life created this technique by experimenting on myself and developed it further while using it
with my clients It will work for you but only if you are breathing diaphragmatically
Using Dormant Muscles Wakens Them from Dormancy
The lives of our nomadic huntergatherer ancestors featured endless variation in movement
They spent their time foraging hunting scouting ranging and setting up and breaking down
camps They dug for vegetables picked fruit made weapons cleaned animal hides prepared
food and carried wood water and children On the other hand the modern human habitat is
one of urban dwelling sedentary technology use and cultures of convenience Most people go
months without extending their muscles beyond the requirements for mere walking Compared
to our ancestors the geometric diversity of our daily motions is impoverished
We are essentially animals in captivity imprisoned by the incredibly low variation of our
movement patterns By moving in the same limited ways we deny our bodies the nutritious
movement they are starving for We selflimit our ranges of motion because of bracing
postural inattention intimidation sitting restraining working positions laziness surgery injury
and loadbearing including things like pregnancy heavy backpacks breast augmentation and
obesity The tension from these activities results in shortened hypertonic dormant muscle
Medical experts have documented that dormant segments of the spine exhibit many of the
same physiological properties as cadaver spine They get so little blood that they might as well
be zombie flesh Because their oxygen and nutrient supply has been strangled off these beef
jerkylike muscles in your back hurt Pushing them into contraction outside of their customarily
restricted range causes pain Accidentally forcing them into rapid full contraction eg during a
fall can be excruciating This pain and fear of it can influence us to avoid using dormant
muscle entirely
We engineer the use of dormant muscles out of our lives and find ways to get around
having to use them which leads to a poorly balanced and ungainly physique This
compensation leads us to use other muscles that are biomechanically less efficient at
completing the task Then these muscles also take on strain To correct this problem we must
reteach ourselves to use the dormant partially contracted muscle by flexing through the
untapped phases of its contractile range

Antirigidity Training The AchingCracking Method
The antirigidity technique involves finding the most dormant parts of the body and subjecting
them to a fullrange stretch and fullrange contraction The first step is to find a dormant joint
To do this you must search for two sensations that are usually found together cracking or
popping of the joint and sore achy muscle You should notice that as you bring a joint into
