If I am to take him at his word then, every step we take ruins our movement map, at least temporarily. Or, and more likely, he is having the volunteer subject fake a week muscle test to make an exaggerated point about brain map clarity. Joint stability is built on compression. Compression and relaxation happens very quickly and all of the time. Is he really telling me that his little jamming move really ruined his map clarity? I highly doubt this.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
