Welcome to the beginner body restoration self-assessment.
2
This is going to give you a really good idea of
3
which side you need to do the asymmetrical drills on to get the best results improving your own individual asymmetries and imbalances.
4
I want to keep this as simple and as straightforward as possible
5
but still thorough enough to give you a pretty good idea of what's going on.
6
We're going to take five simple and easy tests here
7
and the reason is that's an odd number of tests meaning
8
you'll always have at least three out of the five tests indicating
9
that you are more shifted to the right or left side of your body.
10
Okay, let's start at the very top at our head.
11
So all we're going to do is lay on the ground
12
and we're going to flatten out our feet comfortably right here and we're going to passively point our chin at the ceiling.
13
There should be no tension in our body whatsoever and all we're going to do is maintaining this position.
14
We're going to turn our head to the right
15
and then we're going to go back to center and then we're going to turn our head to the left.
16
All you're feeling for is which one is easier.
17
Which one can you go in more range of motion with without you feeling any strain
18
or pushing more than about a two out of ten.
19
If you have to push more than two out of ten, then you are going past your genuine space and you'll get a feel for naturally which one is easier.
20
Try to keep your head nice and level here though.
21
You don't want to feel your chin drop or raise excessively.
22
It should feel like you're staying within generally the same plane of rotation.
23
The next thing we're going to do is shoulder internal rotation.
24
So we're gonna bring our elbow up to the height of our shoulder, not too high, not too low.
25
And you want to feel the back of your shoulder resting on the ground.
26
You could take your other hand
27
and just gently rest it on the front of the shoulder without rotating or turning towards that side.
28
And now all you're going to do is allow for that forearm to drop, stopping at the first sign of when you have to push more than about a two out of 10, or you feel like if you were to go any lower,
29
this shoulder would start to pop up into your hand at all.
30
At that point, that is the end of the test.
31
So stop the measurement short of that and then go to the other side
32
and take the same exact measurement in the same exact way.
33
One side will be better than the other.
34
Now for the next test, we're going to turn onto our side like this.
35
We wanna make sure we have our head facing perfectly straight ahead.
36
There's no tension in our neck whatsoever.
37
And we also have our shoulders perfectly stacked on top of each other
38
and our knees perfectly stacked on top of each other with our hips as well.
39
You're gonna reach one arm directly at the ceiling, fingertips to the ceiling.
40
And all you're going to do is keeping your breastbone facing straight ahead, not letting it turn at all.
41
You're just going to bring your arm back in a perfectly straight line, stopping at the first sensation of when you feel a stretch more than a two out of 10,
42
or you have to push more than a two out of 10.
43
It's not gonna be much range of motion at all.
44
At that point, you're also going to sense that you want to turn your sternum and don't let that happen.
45
So just point your fingertips up at the ceiling and then go back.
46
Once you feel that first two out of 10, that's the end.
47
And then we're going to turn over and we're going to do our other side.
48
So right here, fingertips directly up at, and then you're going to repeat the same process, go straight back.
49
You'll notice one side is better than the other.
50
My left side is definitely more limited than my right.
51
Just like I said, though, watch out for there being tension in your head or neck
52
or your hips not staying stacked and your shoulders not staying stacked.
53
I find a lot of people start to open on this test. And for
54
that reason, you probably want to roll your front shoulder a little bit more forward than you think you need to.
55
Remember, you can always film these two and just see what it looks like.
56
Now for the next test, we're going to lay in that same original position we were in, like so, feet flat on the ground, and you want to pull your heels as close to your
57
butt as you realistically can without feeling any strain in your hamstrings or hips.
58
Just again, no more than a two out of 10.
59
Allow your chin to point passively at the ceiling and let your arms hang out by your sides like this.
60
There should be no tension in your body.
61
If you need to go a little bit lower to get the tension out, that's okay too.
62
But around the height of your shoulder is where your arms should be.
63
By keeping your knees and feet touching each other, all you're going to do is allow for your knees to drop off together in one direction.
64
You're gonna stop at the point where if you were to go any further, you would feel this shoulder begin to want to pop off of the ground.
65
And that is the end of the test.
66
Don't let it go to the point where it actually pops off of the ground.
67
Just when you feel that first temptation, that's the end of that direction.
68
And then go in the other direction, stopping at the point where if you were to go any further, you would feel the temptation of this shoulder starting to lift off.
69
So when I go to the left, my right shoulder will want to pop off.
70
When I go to the right, my left shoulder will want to pop off.
71
And for the last test, we're gonna flip onto our side, keeping our knees and feet together again.
72
And what I recommend is if this was a 90 degree angle, drop your hips down a little bit to around a 60 degree angle.
73
Again, make sure there's no tension in your head or neck.
74
If you wanna support your head on a pillow, you totally can.
75
So the first thing you gotta do is check in with yourself
76
and make sure that your shoulders are stacked on top of each other, your knees are as well, and your hips are too.
77
You never wanna start too open or too closed like that.
78
Everything should be aligned.
79
Now, keeping your inside of your feet touching, all you're going to do is slowly raise up that top leg,
80
stopping at the point where you have to push more than a two out of 10, because at that point, you are just using compensation.
81
Always keep this bottom leg flat.
82
And then you'll flip over and you'll do the same exact thing on the other side.
83
So again, check in with yourself and see if your shoulders and hips are stacked.
84
Then drop down a little bit to around 60 degrees.
85
And all you're going to do now is the same exact process.
86
Open up and see how far you can go before you have to push more than a two out of 10, or you have to roll your hips in any direction.
87
For me, it feels like my left side is easier than my right side.
为什么要用这个视频练习口语？
在学习英语过程中，口语表达至关重要，特别是在提升雅思口语练习时。通过观看并练习这个视频，你可以获得对自我评估和身体动作的深入理解。这不仅仅是身体运动的锻炼，更是大脑思考和语言输出的结合。视频中提供的简单测试帮助你了解如何识别身体的左右不对称，从而引导你进行相应的肢体练习。在这个过程中，你会学到相应的英语表达方式，增强自信，改善口音与语调，最终提高英语发音能力。
语法和表达分析
在视频中，讲者使用了一些关键的结构和表达方式，这些都是学习英语时需要掌握的。以下是几个举例：
- "We’re going to": 这是一个常用的未来表达方式，适合用在系列指导或计划的谈话中，帮助你在雅思口语练习时流利表达计划和步骤。
- "All you're going to do is": 这种表达方式强调了动作的简单性，适合在解释复杂概念时保持简洁。
- "You want to feel": 这种句子结构帮助讲者引导听众的体验感受，有助于在实用口语中增加互动。
常见发音陷阱
在视频中，有一些词汇和发音可能会对学习者构成挑战。例如，“asymmetrical”这个词的发音可能会让许多学习者感到困惑。注意元音的清晰发音是很重要的。此外，讲者用到的“rotation”与“resting”这类词，在快速对话中容易发音不清。通过shadowspeak练习这些词汇的准确发音，可以显著提高你的口音和语言流利度。如果能够在实际发音时加入提高英语发音的技巧，会帮助你在雅思口语中更加出众。
综上所述，利用视频进行语言学习，不仅有助于提升身体意识，还能增强口语能力和发音技巧，成为有效的雅思口语练习工具。通过不断的学习和实践，掌握这些技能将使你的英语水平更上一层楼。
什么是跟读法？
跟读法 (Shadowing) 是一种有科学依据的语言学习技巧，最初开发用于专业口译员的培训，并由多语言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。这个方法简单而强大：您在听英语母语原声的同时立即大声重复——就像是一个延迟1-2秒紧跟说话者的影子。与被动听力或语法练习不同，跟读法强迫您的大脑和口腔肌肉同时处理并模仿真实的讲话模式。研究表明它能显着提高发音准确性，语调，节奏，连读，听力理解和口语流利度——使其成为雅思口语备考和真实英语交流最有效的方法之一。
