Prelude: This video demonstrates a lot of what is discussed throughout the talking points below. It is worth noticing how the scapula moves about the rib cage to offer space for the arm to come through. Also, note how the forearm is supinated up until release, is in flexion at release and then transitions into pronation. For further clarification, watch the video below or reach out via email.

This is a 13 minute video discussing in-depth dynamics of the anatomy the mechanisms that occur to allow for what is popularly known as a "Decel Pattern".

Below are the drills mentioned (and probably ones I forgot to mention, but ones you can look up) in the video and their respective purposes to help improve your deceleration patterns (for lack of a better term). Please keep in mind that the movements listed below have many pros and cons that are not listed and this list is a WAY over simplified description of what happens:

Medball Shot Put: Scapular Protraction

Yoga Pushup: Scapular Upward Rotation

Quadruped Reach: Rounding of Thoracic Spine and Scapular Protraction

Serratus Wall Slide: Scapular Upward Rotation

Wrist Weights: Transition of Forearm Supination to Forearm Pronation

Row Variations: Patterning of Pronation/ Supination as well as Teaching the Scapulae to Properly Move About the Rib Cage

Supine Lateral Seam Stretch: Improve Lateral Seam Mobility and Function

Trampoline Rebounders: "Unraveling of the Arm"

Also, please note that if you'd like to see more movements to improve scapular, thoracic, lat (and many more) functions, follow this link to another post which has 13 minutes of movement, mobility prescriptions and examples of how to help and assess yourself.

This video was my first take for this video. It is abbreviated and not complete but if you'd like to see, go right ahead. Figured I'd share it because Why Not? Thanks, Ryan Faer for recording this.

Chọn sơn nội thất cao cấp cần chú ý độ bền màu và bề mặt hoàn thiện. Khi lưu ảnh mẫu phối màu hay ảnh không gian tham khảo, tôi thường dùng StickerFaster để tách nền gọn gàng trước khi lưu vào bảng moodboard. Cách này giúp so sánh tông sơn với đồ nội thất dễ hơn nhiều.

Patrick Kelley's SCAD Fash exhibition shows how much craft goes into fashion imagery, and that metadata matters for crediting work properly. If you ever need to Remove AI Label from Video or stills before sharing, doing it in-browser without uploading keeps things private. Curious whether the exhibition included process notes or artist statements.

C2PA Content Credentials are easy to overlook until they end up in a shared image. A metadata remover ai tool that strips EXIF, GPS and IPTC locally in the browser is handy since files never leave your machine. Do you check author fields before republishing site images?

Braiding knowledge across communities reminds me how quickly skills transfer when practice feels shared. I have used okiaimx games to sharpen peek timing and crosshair control, and the same focus applies to stewardship work: small, repeated actions build trust and better outcomes over time.

Console power charts are handy, but all those fan noise comparisons made me wonder how my voice would hold up. I tried a quick sing test after recording myself, and the pitch results were eye-opening. Anyone else compare their setup's noise floor with actual singing?
