Why Focus on Posterior Chain Workouts?

Most of people sit at least 6-8 hours per day. This leads to a more dormant posterior chain and poor posture. The posterior chain refers to the entire backside of the body, which means both upper and lower body muscles are included.

The longer sitting throughout the day, the tighter your hip flexors become. And the glutes lose their strength and become inactive. Tight hip flexors and inactive glutes can be fixed by building a strong posterior chain

Exercises like the deadlift, kettlebell swing, and glute bridge are just a few effective options to add to your posterior chain exercise roster. Let’s take a closer look at how a posterior chain workout should be executed for optimal results.

Sakugawa Kango

The father of Okinawan Karate, Master Kanga Sakugawa was born in Shuri, Okinawa in 1733. In 1750, Mster Sakukawa began his training as a student of an Okinawan monk, Peichin Takahara. After six years of training, Takahara suggested that Master Sakugawa train under Master Kusanku, a Chinese master in Ch’uan Fu. Master Sakugawa spent the next six years training with Kusanku and began to spread what he learned to Okinawa in 1762. He became such an expert that people gave him, as his nickname, “Tode” Sakugawa (“Chinese Hand”). His most famous student, Matsumura Sokon, went on to develop Shuri-te which later developed into Shorin-ryu style of karate.

Master Sakugawa also called the father Okinawan Karate, is considered by many to be Okinawan’s first real karate teacher and author of of the first Dojo Kun https://g.co/kgs/LWEZ3J. He created the Sakugawa no Kun, a bo Kata.
