Functional Training Rotation & Anti-Rotation — Transverse Day

Force transfer through the transverse plane, hips-to-hands rotation, brace under twist · Stage · Power & Chaos (velocity, odd objects, reactivity)

Warm-Up · RAMPPhase 1 · Kinetic priming · ground flow & dissociation · 6-8 min
Time__ : __
1Band Pull-Apartexhale on effort, move on the breath90 s
2World's Greatest Stretchlong spine crown to tail — no segment collapses2 × 8
3Cat-Cowpattern before pace — position sets the speed limit6/side
Phase 2 · Reactive Power & Elasticity6-8 min · sub-max explosive · full rest between efforts
Time__ : __
1Rotational Throwground contact soft and quiet — hear nothing4 × 4
2Skater Hopown the deceleration — land it like you'd lower a child3 × 5
Phase 3 · Primary Kinetic Engine18-22 min · paired patterns · rest 90 s between pairs
Time__ : __
1Windmillhips to hands — the floor powers the movement4 × 5/side fastkg
2Wood Chopribs stacked while you rotate — turn, don't tilt3 × 8/sidekg
3Landmine Rotationoffset load — hips stay quiet and level3 × 30 s/side
Progression: Chaos rule: odd objects and velocity expose the weak link — attack the wobble, not the weight. Full recovery between power efforts; power dies in fatigue.
Phase 4 · Carries & Functional Density8-12 min · continuous carries & locomotor density
Time__ : __

3Sled Pushpattern before pace — position sets the speed limit15 m

Coach notes: Log every load and every time box — next week's card asks for 2% more.

Functional loading demands positional integrity — regress range before load with knee/ankle restrictions. Scale load to your level, stop at pain, follow the BPIT Principle of Intensity and NASM/ACSM/ACE safety guidance. Educational — not medical advice.
