RMAX (Scott Sonnon) 4x7 The Magic In The Mundane DVDset
£105.50
Have you ever wondered how it all fits together? Have you struggled to find that FITNESS FORMULA that gives you maximum results in minimum time, with no complicated schedules to memorize? Have you been frustrated by trying to take all of the exercises you love to do and perform them in a single program? International Champion and Master Coach Scott Sonnon wanted to find the answers to these questions for his thousands of RMAX athletes around the world. Scott poured through his years of training diaries as a professional coach and athlete and detected a pulse beating underneath, a pulse that connected all of the best athletes together in one thread of life. He detected a common theme, a denominator that all optimal performance athletes held in common. Do you want to know the secret that all “flow-state” athletes intuitively act upon? Would you like to tap into this universal theme which unites all elite performances? This formula is like rocket science, but you don’t need to understand how to make gasoline for it to work in your car! All you need to do is follow the easy steps that Scott has made available for you in this revolutionary formula he calls “4x7”. What is included in this revolutionary fitness formula? 4x7 is a super powered fitness program featuring the following unique characteristics: Selection: 4x7 includes never before seen exercise variations peculiarly crafted to optimize your health and fitness. Sequence: the 4x7 circuits are organized in a proprietary manner to guarantee you optimal results. Cycling: four entirely distinct yet perfectly integrated programs cycled seven times incorporate compensatory movements to balance your growth and active recovery so that you can continue to progress every one of the 28 days. Protocol and Progression: Sophistication: 4x7 demonstrates how sophisticating a movement produces a synergistic effect: the complete chain practiced as one movement produces a sum total training effect which is greater than if the individual components were practiced for the same number of repetitions. Compression: 4x7 observes the powerful tendencies of our biochemistry to adapt to stress according to the Fibonacci sequence. Coupled together with the four day cycle, as your entire neural, endocrine and immune super-systems adapt as one organism, the period of rest grows smaller. The four day cycle includes special compensatory Prasara Body-Flow™ chains – the Walking Seal and Side Sunset - to prevent your gains from becoming unbalanced, and a specific joint mobility program from Intu-Flow™ – the Spinal Wake-up Series - to ship out toxic fitness byproducts and ship in crucial nutrition and lubrication to your connective tissue. Is this program easy to follow along? Insert the disc that corresponds with the specific day of your four day cycle (days 1-4). Practice the techniques. When you're ready, follow along the circuits according to the full-color, hi-definition 28 Day Program Schedule Color Chart included in your program. If you follow 4x7 for the entire 28 days, we assure you that on the other end you will be a better, healthier, more energetic and vibrant natural athlete. 4 DVD set : Running time: appr. 109 minutes Equipment required: Clubbells and Pull-up bar

£65.95
Body-Flow heralds a new era in human performance enhancement. The emphasis on integrating breath and physical structure with movement allows your body to gently release ingrained tension more efficiently than traditional methods. As the fundamental movements recommended for initial exploration are mastered, exploratory practice is recommended to encourage creative development and joy in practice. Playfully combining basic movements into more complex and challenging combinations called kinetic chains results in fluid, beautiful full-body grace and fitness. Presented by Coach Scott Sonnon, international martial arts champion and world renowned fitness expert, Body-Flow: Biomechanical Exercises and Kinetic Chains is available as a 2-DVD set.

Since development occurs at an individual pace, practitioners are invited to play with their movement and enjoy each step along the way rather than rush ahead to ever more advanced exercises. Beginners are cautioned not to attempt the kinetic chains demonstrated before mastering the component exercises for each one. By listening to your body and developing relaxed competency, you will reap the most benefit and joy from your practice.

Download the CST group exercise brocure http://www.rmaxi.com/cstgx/CSTGXPromoBook.pdf     What People Are Saying About CSTGX    I have done the beginner disc of the CSTGX twice now and really love this workout. I have many RMAX products but I believe I like this one the best. Next to Intu-Flow®. This workout really challenges my grip and my cardio but when I am done I fell great. I don't feel tight and beat up. I actually feel energized.    I just wanted to tell everyone at RMAX what a great product I think this is, and if anyone is thinking about purchasing it, you won't be disappointed. Thanks Coach Sonnon! - Steve    I'm in love with the CSTGX program. I'm a total newbie to CST (started with Ageless Mobility® a month or two ago) and am working up to completing the full beginner workout. Just today I did the mobility warm-up, dynamic warm-up, spiral line, and yoga flow using the 5 lb Clubbells. It's a top notch production -- on par with Ageless Mobility® in quality.    Thank you, thank you thank you to Coach Sonnon and everyone at RMAX involved in its creation. I really think this program will be key to my recovery and getting back into more of the activities I enjoy. - Sarah    I, too, love this DVD (well, two). Coach Sonnon has again done us health-first fitness practitioners a great service. Here is the essence of CST, the whole shebang. - Kevin Lee Dougherty    CST GX is a fantastic program, I love it!!! - Joseph Schwartz, CST    I have been doing the CSTG since I received the program and as always Coach and RMAX have created a great program that is lots of fun to work with. I find it flexes well to various timeframes and energy levels. More time – more reps or more time doing each exercise (that’s the method I have been using). It can be a low intensity or high intensity depending on the time and speed used in each exercise. So a very versatile program.    But it is more than that. I personal love the thought that goes into the RMAX products. My approach to my martial arts gives me an appreciation for great strategy. CSTG = Circular Strength Training® Group Exercise. While I find this a terrific program for myself to work on the key words are "Group Exercise."    If you think of leading a group of folk through this workout, you can see the strategy used to design it for this very purpose. Even though it is done with Clubbells, the movements take little footprint and the swing is controlled. This would be important to leading a group of lined up people. The small footprint would allow a larger class size. The strategic control of the use of the Clubbells allows for a safe workout.    Hats off to Coach and RMAX for not only putting out another wonderful personal training product, but a strategically great one for group training – humm just like the name. - Rick Wilson

RMAX (Scott Sonnon) Forward Pressure DVD
£32.95
It is named the Yang of Yoga to metaphorically refer to the rebalancing emphasis that this style of yoga intends. We’ve seen a recent fixation on the yin aspect of yoga: referring to the releases of connective tissue and joints. The yang aspect, contrarily, alludes to muscle and movement. This is not to say that Prasara Body-Flow™ is either Yin or Yang. How can it be? One cannot exist without the other. No activity is specifically this or that. It's always integrated. Only our beliefs are separated. But, it is the recent domination of yin presentations of yoga which prevents access to it for many people, if not most men. The generative, yielding feminine aspect has reclaimed its rightful place in fitness and internal work. But like everything, there must be balance, and in this case homeostatic rebalancing. That is what the yang aspect of yoga brings to us: a sensible yogic path which develops sound muscularity through movement. Before the PC commercialization of yoga in the West, you’d never find a namby-pamby milquetoast guru. Yogi were each and every one tough, strong men who wrestled, swung heavy clubs (even the Indian god of strength, Hanuman, is depicted hoisting heavy clubs), performed acrobatics on ropes and pillars, and practiced very challenging gymnastic movement sessions. Good luck to you if you weren't living up to your potential (just ask Coach Sonnon's athletes!) Having this style of yoga available gives access to so many more people, especially men who just can’t grasp the contortions of a 105lbs woman. Re-injecting masculinity back into the equation only restores balance to the equation. That's not to say that Forward Pressure is a "men's only yoga". Many women will be absolutely delighted to finally be able to appreciate the muscular movement that you won't find anywhere more present than in Forward Pressure. Women will LOVE this course! You need a total integrated path for yourself. Sometimes you need to be gentle and release, to concentrate on centering your thoughts and controlling your emotions. Sometimes, on the other hand, you need to take action, to move and writhe in the ecstasy of physical life! It's all in balance. No style of yoga is superior. No yoga is THE way. Yoga is about creating YOUR way. Forward Pressure will contribute to your opportunity to do just that. The DVD is scientifically, systematically crafted into four equally empowering sections: I. Introduction: the theory and intentions of Forward Pressure; II. Instruction: the mechanics of breath, structure and movement in each exercise; III. Flows: the three follow-along, incrementally progressing multi-movement programs; IV. Compensations: the specific movements to balance and anchor the gains you make in the Flow Chains.

RMAX (Scott Sonnon) Immovable Object Unstoppable Force 2-DVD set
£79.95
Defend against throws and apply your throw attacks from any position! Scott Sonnon, International Champion and former Head Coach of the United States Sambo teams, teaches how to master the art of throwing. Based on universal biomechanical principles, Immovable Object Unstoppable Force (IOUF) breaks down the anatomy, physics and mental components of throwing into bite-size pieces that can be applied to any throwing art. IOUF Part 1: Hyperfunction This part introduces the first critical principles of anatomy and throwing strategy. The concepts presented can be used to enhance your current takedown practice and enable you to learn new throwing methods more rapidly. Some of the major concepts presented and demonstrated include:   Hyperfunction and why it is preferable to inducing dysfunction The Triangle Point: What it is, how to find it, and how to use it Joint Loading and use of natural motion to bypass reflexive bracing Joint articulation and use of force vectors for enhancing throw effectiveness Biomechanics of gripping and developing grip strategies Determining shared force vectors and their applications in throwing Demonstrations of applications, setups, throws, solo and partner drills and more IOUF Part 2: Quantum Gripping Coach Scott Sonnon expands on Part 1 and goes deeper, explaining in detail why "a great throw is less." He presents a thorough analysis of how to develop and use grip strategies to gain the upper hand. You will learn: The 3 primary grip strategies: Confirmation, Counter and Release Frames and the use of forearm rotation Countergrasps and use of the "middle space" between attacks Jacket fencing - use of the belt, lapels and other jacket grips Spine articulation for increasing throwing speed and power Exploration of Parallet and Concurrent force vectors Use of Power Transfer and Locking arms Use of range, footwork and grip to change the Joint Mass Center relationship Leg fencing to create more throwing opportunities Integration of full-body articulation and the principles presented in three dimensions Solo and Partner drills for development, and how to develop your own original drills IOUF Part 3: Joint Mass Center "He who controls the middle controls the fight." Improve your ability to prevent being thrown and to throw from virtually any position by knowing how to control the center. Coach Scott Sonnon explains and demonstrates: Use of three-dimensional and compound hyperfunction in creating opportunities to throw Fundamental Movement: Figure 8s in developing throws, leg fencing, and other relevant skills Leg Fencing tactics: Posts, Sweeps, Reaps, Hooks and Elevators Footwork tactics: pelvis integration, Box Step, Slingshot and Knee Screws Joint Mass Center: definition and how to take control Immovable Object: use of the Joint Mass Center and Triangle Point to prevent being thrown Stance Integrity: alignment, breaching, supporting legs and removal of critical joints Partner Drills: Practicing principles for defense and offense, examples of incremental progression, putting it all together Throw Renovation: demonstrations of principles applied to traditional throws and common grappling situations   Practice of the concepts presented will allow you to internalize and express them in your own practice. The methods demonstrated are not presented as rote technique, but as examples of the concepts in application. 2 DVD set Runing time: appr. 220 minutes
RMAX (Scott Sonnon) Integrating Structure DVD
£39.99
Presented at the first Softwork seminar in October 2004, Coach Scott Sonnon's lecture demonstrates and clarifies the principles that underlay Circular Strength Training and FlowFighting Systems. Understanding these unifying concepts is the key to understanding how different programs relate to one another and how they can be integrated with non-RMAX disciplines. Among other points, Softwork: Integrating Structure addresses:   Integration of Breathing, Structure and Movement. Relative intensity: its effects on thinking, emotions, breathing and tension. Manipulating relative intensity to increase effectiveness of practice. Tension: regulating our own and manipulation of density in others. The Tensegrity Model and anatomical principles of balanced tension. Density: Causes, detection, manipulation and disintegration. Taking advantage of trained tension patterns in opponents. Recovery from and use of force applied against us. Force application in practice for the good of your partner. Expectations and disrupting ingrained reactions in practice and competition. Training to become free of ingrained tension and its effects. Partner practice to break up density patterns and develop improved recovery.   Tension determines the behavior and adaptability of our bodies, minds and emotions. In learning to control our tension levels under greater relative intensity, we become able to handle all kinds of stress more efficiently and effectively. This leads directly to performance improvements in all activities, increased strength and stamina, and better long-term health. In martial arts, we can attack tension chains to protect ourselves, gain control and take away our opponent's will to continue. This lecture presents a "big picture" view of all RMAX programs and how they come together in Softwork. The training concepts demonstrated on the original Softwork DVD Set (shot the same weekend) demonstrate and expand on the points covered in this lecture. The Softwork: Integrating Structure DVD is a great resource for those incorporating any RMAX training materials into their personal practice, and complements The Three-Dimensional Performance Pyramid Manual .

£32.95
Flow Makes Flawless The Rebirth of the Hall of Fame Award Winning Martial Art Conditioning Program designed by Distinguished Master of Sport, former USA National Sambo Team Coach and Champion, Scott Sonnon. Martial artists all admire natural grace of masterful grapplers from Jiujitsu, Judo, Sambo and Wrestling. To an extent, much of that ferocious fluidity is learned.

Persistent, he traveled the world to find and formulate the right methods to match up with the learning requirements of the non-gifted. His unique approach stands on the broad shoulders of his Olympic and national coaching and international success on the mat. Coach Sonnon designed these “biomechanical exercises” as a powerful form of specific physical preparedness which: creates a safety valve for when movements deviate from the expected, like they always do in the chaos of and fighting, so that when you or your opponent move too far, too fast, too hard, you can safely recover and stay on target. three-dimensionally strengthens connective tissue (the “outer bag” of your fascia and the muscle it contains, and the “inner bag” forming the joint capsules and holding in the precious synovial fluid, ground substance, and of course your cartilage and bones.) provide a movement model for your nervous system to improve your technique without a partner, like a form of “shadow grappling” - probably the most under-estimated form of practice in modern day gyms. If you practice these as a warm-up, before your practicing the technique with a partner, of if as your form of off-season conditioning, you’ll skyrocket your performance on the mat. Practice consistently for 60 days and you will completely rewire your nervous system.   One DVD Running time: 81 minutes

With Softwork, International Champion and U.S. National Coach Scott Sonnon provides a training approach that synergizes creativity in partner work and breaths fresh new life into effective martial practice. Softwork is a culmination of many years of training and practical research on both sides of the planet. As a non-dogmatic, non-stylistic practice methodology, it challenges the martial enthusiast to explore and develop beyond the bounds of traditional expectations. Based upon anatomical fact and applied biomechanical principles, it serves as a performance diagnostic tool, a technical enhancement practice and an opportunity to supercharge attribute development with your partners. Filmed at the first Softwork seminar, this program unifies the many branches of previously-released RMAX FlowFighting Systems and Circular Strength Training programs.   Breath, Structure, Movement and the role of tension chains in exploratory practice Progressions for working with single and multiple partners Standing Shock Absorption: Deprogramming force-related fear-reactivity with movement Striking: Heavy and deep practice protocols, and applications of Non-traditional and Dependent hitting 3 Strategies: Withdrawal, Confirmation and Revolution Leg Density: Identification and dissolution of trained density patterns Global - Local - Global: Practical concepts for developing mental toughness Exploring, Exploiting and Releasing Density Leg Fencing: Creating takedown opportunities through flowing movement sensitivity Touch Response: Spontaneous force sensitivity in attack and defense Putting It All Together: Developing and practicing dynamic drills Ground Evasion: Exploring your options with standing partners Blade Work: Overcoming fear-reactivity, time-framing and training kinesthetic awareness without patterns Stick Work: "Snagging the sweater", exploiting tension chains and use of tactical force application Ground Fighting: Principles of non-technical practice, use of pressure and investigation of core density Guiding Flow: Movement between techniques, Triangle Theory of joint locks, selective tension and soft movement Why being a Good Partner is more important than being a Good Student Grappling: Loading and tension-induced weakness Coaching Guidance: Getting the most from Softwork practice and developing Good Partners for mutual benefit   "Like the center of the place that all techniques come from," Softwork provides the principles to manifest appropriate responses to any given scenario. The concepts may be adapted to the practice of any form of combat. Complementing the standard Hardwork practice methods (sparring, rolling, scenarios, etc.) used in most fighting styles, Softwork provides a safe platform for fruitful daily practice. At 195 minutes, the 2-DVD Softwork Set provides a wealth of information for your immediate application. The theoretical side of Softwork is addressed more completely in the Integrating Structure DVD and The Three-Dimensional Performance Pyramid Manual.
