Today I interviewed Charles Hecker about Zero Sum. The Arc of International Business in Russia (Oxford UP, 2025). Hecker, a journalist and business consultant, speaks with dozens of Western business executives, bankers, and financiers who reaped immense profits for themselves and their companies in the Russian market, which suddenly opened to foreigners after decades of state planning and economic autarky. These “riskophile” Westerners recall the early post-Soviet Russia as an unchartered territory where business “had a body count” and “violence was cheap, routine and almost casual”. In the 2000s Russia, now stabilized by Putin, offered unparalleled opportunities for those who had learnt to navigate its murky, gray environment. While some expressed concern over the unchallenged primacy of the supreme ruler presiding over arbitrary redistribution of property in favor of his cronies and the rapid consolidation of state ownership, the squeamish were far outnumbered by the opportunistic. Following Russia's large-scale invasion of Ukraine in February 2022 and the subsequent imposition of sweeping Western sanctions forced most Westerners to flee, often selling their companies for a fraction of their value and, in some cases, even giving it for free to their Russian partners. Looking back some regret “looking the other way” at the rampant corruption and lawlessness, while others admit that enrichment in Russia was always destined to be short-lived.

Vortrag von Anno Hecker (Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung) im Rahmen des 7. Sportethischer Fachtags der EKD vom 1. April 2025. Sport findet statt im Krieg und im Frieden. Gerade hierin liegt seine Bedeutung: Er stellt einen Raum bereit, in dem sich Athlet/innen jenseits aller zwischenstaatlichen Konflikte begegnen. Sportliche Ereignisse können so ein Modell des friedlichen Wettbewerbs sein: Zwischenmenschliche Begegnungen ereignen sich hier über die Grenzen von Nationen, Religionen und Kulturen hinweg, trotz weiterbestehender politischer Spannungen und trotz eines nicht unerheblichen Potenzials für körperliche Gewalt. Doch kann der Sport seine Funktion, den kleinen Frieden zur Entfaltung zu bringen, auch in Kriegszeiten weiter erfüllen? Wie geht das damit überein, dass der Sport selbst ein kämpferisches Geschehen ist, das Konflikte zwischen den Athlet/innen zur Darstellung bringt?

Send me a DM here (it doesn't let me respond), OR email me: imagineabetterworld2020@gmail.comToday I'm honored to have on the show for the second time: Raytheon whistleblower, former Navy firefighter and contractor for Raytheon, Stargate Project and MK ULTRA survivor, travel lover, my dear friend, and a man on a mission to help circumnavigate the gatekeepers of the ‘disclosure commodity' market: Eric HeckerToday, we have the honor of once again speaking with Eric Hecker, a whistleblower whose story not only shocks but also shines a light on the dark corners of governmental secrecy.Eric is coming forward today to share his astonishing and harrowing first-hand account from his time at the South Pole Facility in Antarctica, where he witnessed what he describes as highly advanced directed energy weapons, or 'DEWs', being utilized in ways that he believes - and that we know from corroborating testimony on this channel - constitute crimes against humanity. His experiences are not just alarming; they are deeply disturbing, and his sworn testimony before Congress has brought these issues to light in a way that demands our attention.We've explored DEWs, electronic mind control, and the targeting of individuals—often referred to as 'targeted individuals' or 'TIs'—on this podcast before. However, what sets Eric's testimony apart is his willingness to discuss a lesser-known aspect of his life that we discussed in the first episode we did together: his childhood involvement in the CIA's Stargate and MK ULTRA projects. His decision to speak about these experiences sheds new light on how his early life influenced his later career paths, including his role as a contractor for Raytheon in Antarctica.For those new to this topic, the Stargate Project was a secretive government mind control and behavioral modification project aimed at harnessing psychic and psionic abilities using children and humans for military and intelligence purposes, primarily through remote viewing. This context is crucial to understanding the full scope of Eric's journey.Eric's presence here today is driven by a profound moral obligation to expose the hidden darkness within our society, particularly the links between public disclosure, child behavior modification, UAPs, electronic warfare, and government-sponsored child slavery. His courage in addressing these interconnected issues is rare and vital, as he seeks to connect dots that most are afraid to touch. His testimony, given to both the Senate Intelligence Committee and AARO, mark a significant moment in the history of whistleblowing.We are genuinely fortunate to have the opportunity to learn from Eric's survival and resilience. So, I urge you all to set aside your distractions, grab a pen and paper, and give your undivided attention to Eric as we delve into and unravel the complex, often concealed layers of disclosure movements with one of the few courageous voices willing to share the truth.

Antarctica whistleblower Eric Hecker joined Metaphysical for an interview. In part 2, the discussion revolved around the ways technology could be weaponized. Governments are historically interested in energy research for use in weapons applications. Once you understand frequencies, this becomes possible. From Nicola Tesla to the militaries of the world, from directed energy weapons to the IceCube Neutrino Detector in Antarctica, there are a lot of fantastic discoveries most people have never heard of. As Ghostbusters put it, “Don't cross the streams,” but what happens if you DO cross them? The potentials of advanced technology begin to evolve into manipulating humans via frequencies. Could a dream be hacked? Could the “voice of God” technology be real? Artificial telepathy is just the beginning. In this episode, Rob, John, and Eric dive into the history and modern day advancements that most would be shocked to hear. Join Metaphysical for a show that's out of this world.

Advanced technology, the IceCube Neutrino Detector, and interplanetary communications were just the beginning. This conversation between investigative researcher Rob Counts, remote viewer John Vivanco, and Eric Hecker dived into the nature of mind control, remote viewing protocol, and the difference between information and manipulation.

Today, we talk about the arc of international business in Russia over the past 30-some years. Our guest is Charles Hecker. Charles is a self-professed “Russia geek” who has written a fabulous new book entitled Zero Sum - The Arc of International Business in Russia. It largely covers the time starting from the fall of the Soviet Union to Russia's invasion of Ukraine. It's utterly fascinating on so many levels.  International business in Russia, as you will hear, is almost like a huge natural experiment in decision-making. You will hear about complex to nuanced decisions, bad decisions, good decisions, and downright batshit crazy decisions. To fully understand and appreciate a topic as complex as Russia, you need to live and breathe it, and Charles has and does. He studied in Russia during the Cold War. He was a journalist there with Moscow Times in the 1990s and also led Control Risks Russia office in the country. Control Risks is a specialist risk consultancy where Charles and I were colleagues. Charles is also a great storyteller. That will come through in this conversation and it also comes through in the book which is filled with colour. In reading it, one can almost see, and smell vodka dripping from the page and imagine oneself in Russia in the nineties and the noughties. While it's impossible to go back in time and fully understand what people were thinking and feeling when they made decisions when it comes to business decision-making in Russia, Charles's account comes about as close as you can get.

Send me a DM here (it doesn't let me respond), OR email me: imagineabetterworld2020@gmail.comToday I'm honored to introduce you all to: Raytheon whistleblower, former Navy firefighter and contractor for Raytheon, Stargate Project and MK ULTRA survivor, travel lover, and a man on a mission to help circumnavigate the gatekeepers of the ‘disclosure commodity' market: Eric HeckerWhen I met Eric, I was familiar with his story of being a whistleblower for witnessing highly advanced directed energy weapons – which we often call ‘DEWs' on this podcast – being used for crimes against humanity during his time at the South Pole Facility in Antarctica he was stationed at and has testified to congress under oath about. Having listened to a few of Eric's interviews, it's shocking, alarming, and very disturbing to listen to his first-hand experiences and to consider the implications on humanity that his claims hold. While we have spoken in length on this podcast about DEWS, electronic mind control, and how these advanced technologies are being used to target individuals – also known as ‘targeted individuals' or ‘TI's' – but what most other interviews featuring Eric haven't touched much on are his experiences as a child having been sold into the CIA's Stargate and MK ULTRA projects. I was really thrilled when Eric agreed to come shine a light on this part of his testimony today, and how his childhood experiences may add context to the path he took as an adult and the things he saw and experienced in Antarctica.We know from listening to survivor testimonies on this show that there are very little coincidences in a survivor's life and that much of their life has been engineered and manufactured to fulfill different roles and duties in society – unbeknownst to them. I believe that Eric's full disclosure of what he went through as a child will really bring validity and insight as to how and why he ended up in Antarctica as a contractor for Raytheon to begin with.For context on Stargate Project - if you are new here - and according to Wikipedia: “The Stargate Project was a secret US Army unit established in 1977 at Fort Meade, Maryland, by the Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA) and SRI International – which, if you guys remember, we have had 3 Stanford Research Institute (AKA SRI) survivors on this podcast - to investigate the potential for psychic phenomena in military and domestic intelligence applications. The Stargate Project's work primarily involved remote viewing and the purported ability to psychically "see" events, sites, or information from a great distance.” Eric comes to us today to disclose and share some of the most vulnerable moments of his life out of a personal and moral obligation to shine a light on the darkness that exists in the world that is all but hidden from the general public. While there appears to be a concerted effort to control the mainstream disclosure movement, it will be heroes like Eric who help us break through the controlled narrative by connecting public disclosures of all kinds to child behavior modification programs and government-sponsored child slavery – something very few have the courage to do. It's the piece that is missing from most disclosure movements. Eric is extremely passionate about helping to bring awareness to organized child abuse and crimes being committed against innocent children through our government and governments all over the world, and he is one of the few whistleblowers that was asked to give testimony for both the Senate Intelligence Committee and AARO. His shared testimony will be getting entered into the National Archives.CONNECT WITH ERIC: Website: Home - Deciphering My ExperienceSupport the show

I hope your morning is off to a great start. My name is Alan, happy to be your host today here on the PT on ICE Daily Show. It is Fitness Athlete Friday. We talk all things CrossFit, powerlifting, Olympic weightlifting, endurance athletes. For that patient, athlete or client of yours that is recreationally active, Fridays are all about topics for that person. We are finishing out deltoid week here at ICE, so we're talking all things shoulder, in particular the deltoid muscle, exercises for the deltoid, manual therapy for the deltoid, so go back if you haven't been listening the rest of this week to all the episodes from all the other faculty, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, dry needling techniques, cupping techniques, exercises, modifications, importance of deltoid exercises for pregnant and postpartum moms, we've got it all. Plus, we have a whole bunch of great content on our Instagram page as well, related to the deltoid and all of those topics. Today on Fitness Athlete Friday, we're going to tackle the deltoid from its role in functional fitness. So in particular, we're going to be talking about vertical pressing. So we're going to talk about anatomical considerations of the deltoid as it relates to lifting weights overhead. We're going to talk about clinical considerations of why do we care about someone's deltoid when they come in for physical therapy treatment. And then we're going to finish talking about how we think you should actually train the deltoid with these patients and athletes in the clinic. THE DELTOID: ANATOMICAL CONSIDERATIONS So a brief anatomy overview to start. What are our considerations for the anatomy of the deltoid? We need to understand and recognize the deltoid muscle is large, it is designed, it is built for blunt force trauma. If we come away from social media and computers, and the past 2000 plus years of human progress, and we go back to ancient man and even before we became humans and we were walking around on all fours, understanding the role of deltoid, but as we're crawling around on all fours, we have hip extension from our hip, we have glutes and quads as our primary lower extremity muscles, and in the upper body, we are pulling ourselves along the ground. We are designed for vertical pulling in particular, We all understand the importance of the lat. There's probably not a single person, if you walked into a room and recommended that the average person could benefit from doing some strict pull-ups, there's probably nobody that would voice opposition or concerns. But yet, when we start to talk about vertical pressing, all of a sudden, the conversation changes. Whoa, don't lift your arm overhead. That's dangerous. We've heard things, and I've heard things, like even when I was in school, that the shoulder is so mobile, it's just really not optimal to lift your arm overhead. Which, if we go back to our history and our evolution, doesn't really seem practical. And I think it's a fundamental misunderstanding. of how the deltoid functions and its role in providing that stability to the shoulder joint. So being quadruped, now bipedal organisms, now standing up resisting gravity, great at vertical pulling, not great at vertical pressing, especially when we don't do it. Why? The shoulder is inherently mobile, it is inherently unstable. It does not have a lot of bony support. The deltoid is the primary muscle that gives us that stability. throughout the whole range of motion of the shoulder. The deltoid is primarily responsible for flexion and abduction. It is the prime mover of shoulder elevation. And in particular, as we begin to approach 90 degrees of flexion and abduction and move up towards 120 degrees and beyond, the deltoid really becomes the only mover. A lot of the other smaller muscles, upper traps, rotator cuff muscles, whatever, really fall off and the deltoid stands alone as moving things overhead. And so we see that that does not happen. That does not happen in a lot of people. We already know most people are sedentary. They're not lifting weight overhead, pushing or pulling. But for those folks that are, we need to get them doing probably more vertical pressing to train that deltoid to really understand and respect the anatomy that we need to have a really strong deltoid if we really want to have a strong and stable shoulder. Really great evidence on the importance of the deltoid as the prime mover of the shoulder. An article back from 2021, the Journal of Elbow and Shoulder Surgery, Hecker and colleagues, Really cool study. They took people, they gave them an axillary nerve block on one side, and then they gave them nothing on the other side. And they tested maximal isometric strength. And what they wanted to find out is how much strength comes from each of the shoulder muscles, at what degree of shoulder flexion, shoulder abduction, internal or external rotation, adduction and abduction. And what they found is when they blocked the axillary nerve, and they tested isometric strength, instantly with the arm still at rest, moving into flexion, the shoulder strength was reduced to 76%. In flexion and in abduction, it was reduced to 64%. And now again, as we elevate that shoulder further up towards 90 to 120 degrees, the strength fall off was even more significant. Flexion now at only 25% strength, and abduction at 30 strength. So the deltoid is involved in the entire range of motion of primarily flexion and abduction. But in particular, as we get up towards 90, and as we start to bring our arm all the way overhead, it is primarily deltoid, which means we need to be training the full range of motion, and we need to be training more pressing patterns, and not so much laying on our back or laying on our stomach and doing prone rotator cuff work, trap work, whatever. That stuff is great early on in therapy, but if we really want to get the deltoid strong, we need to move it through the range of motion that it controls, which is all of it, and in particular, all the way up and overhead. THE DELTOID: CLINICAL CONSIDERATIONS So discussing clinical considerations, who might we see with a deltoid problem? How could we pick up that somebody might need to get stronger deltoids? I would argue just like with glutes or quads, it's every human being, right? There's no one that is checking the box on strong enough muscles. I don't think you'll find a single elite athlete who thinks, I don't need to train anymore. I've made it. They're probably always aware of their weaknesses and things they need to train. and I would argue vertical pressing, training the deltoid is true for every single person. But we do see these presentations come in. where we start to think, hmm, what I'm seeing, I think I'm treating the symptom of a bigger problem. So when the deltoid isn't doing its job, that's when the other smaller muscles of the shoulder complex take over. That's when we have people with upper trap stiffness or upper trap pain or headaches or posterior cuff pain or issues up in their neck, trouble with rotation, side bending, whatever. those smaller muscles that can act to elevate the shoulder are taking over because the deltoid isn't pulling its weight. The long-term solution isn't to only train those muscles, it's to train those muscles if it makes the person feel better, but again, get back to training the deltoid. So when we see those patients come in the clinic, oh, my traps, my traps, my traps, my traps, my neck is stiff, I've got a headache, and we start to dig into the subjective, what have you been doing? Oh, we've been doing a handstand push-up cycle at my gym. Oh, we've been doing a split jerk cycle, a clean and jerk cycle, a snatch cycle, whatever. you start to hear that this person has increased their volume and overhead lifting and they're complaining of all of these secondary symptoms of upper trap, neck, headache, whatever. When I hear that, I'm thinking this person, this person, yes, needs my help. reducing pain, restoring range of motion, but I'm also thinking, I need to get this person on a vertical pressing program. Especially a functional fitness athlete, I need to be getting them doing strict press, I need to be getting them doing handstand pushups, strict handstand pushups, whatever they can tolerate, wherever they're at in their fitness journey, maybe it's handstand pushup, eccentrics, whatever, but I'm thinking, we need to start integrating some vertical pressing in this person's program, because yes, while we're treating their symptoms short term, the way they're presenting tells me they would benefit a lot from stronger shoulders. These symptoms are probably going to be less likely to show up in the future if we do that. And so as we're reducing the symptoms, resolving the symptoms in the local tissue, we then need to evaluate if the deltoid needs strengthening. A lot of folks ask, how strong should your shoulders be? We have a lot of really great evidence on bodyweight normalized exercise in the lower extremity. We know the stronger your squat gets relative to your bodyweight, the less likely you are to develop lower extremity injuries. So the stronger a 1x bodyweight back squat, a double bodyweight back squat, stronger, stronger, stronger, less, less, less injury. We don't have a lot of that research in the upper extremities, but I would say that a strong person should be able to press 50-100% of their bodyweight overhead. Now that's going to depend on a lot of things. Training age, right? Somebody that just started lifting overhead six months ago is probably a very long time, like years or decades away from achieving a bodyweight strict press. Somebody that has been training a lot and is close is obviously going to get there a lot closer. But we don't necessarily need to get there with a strict press. Somebody that can push press their body weight, somebody that can jerk their body weight, somebody that can show me a strict handstand push up, that person really tells me that they have really strong shoulders. Arm length plays a big role here. Those of you with longer arms, I know you're listening right now, nodding your head. I'm five foot seven. I have these little T-Rex arms. I don't have a lot of range of motion before my arms are locked out overhead. Someone built like me. isn't actually going to have a stronger press, a stronger handstand push up capacity than someone that is six foot six and their fingertips touch the middle of their fibula, right? So consider that as well. Don't hold people's feet to the fire on that too much. But no, we want to see people getting a strong press, we want to see them move towards a 50% bodyweight press, and then continue to train that as much as possible. We have a number of different tools we can use as well to look for asymmetries in the clinic. I love to just stick with a dumbbell strip press in the front rack. Hey, let's try a five to eight rep max. Let's see if we have an asymmetry. If somebody can't tolerate that due to pain, I love to go to a landmine press and try to find a five to eight rep max there, and then try to see if I can observe any asymmetry. And then we know if we talked here on the past on the Daily Show, to clear up asymmetries, we need to be training the weaker side three to four times the volume. So that person needs to be doing maybe four to five sets of pressing work for every set that the strong side does. So that's always a consideration as well. When we look at ratios in the upper body, we need to understand the upper body is or at least should be a little bit weaker compared to our lower body. Humans are primarily legs. We do have those people out there. You probably all have a friend that has a 400 pound bench press and a 200 pound back squat. They're just built. They're built different, right? They love upper body, skip leg day a lot. But in general, our legs should be stronger than our upper body. How strong? About 40-60, maybe 30-70 at the most. But when you start to get to a ratio of 80% of my strength is in my legs and 20% is in my upper body, we really get into an issue where now our lower body can generate more power than our upper body strength can handle. And so we have some really cool research, Matt Sura and colleagues, 2023 Journal of Science and Medicine and Sport followed swimmers and asked that question in their research. Hey, is there a ratio where lower body strength leads to upper body injury? And the answer seems to be yes, which is really interesting research. So this study followed 48 competitive swimmers across six months. At the start of the study, these swimmers had no pain. Across the six months of training, 20 swimmers developed pain and the researchers testing baselines and reassessments throughout the study wanted to pick up on how can we determine who's most likely to develop a shoulder injury across a season of competitive swimming. And so finding that folks who developed a stiffer shoulder across those six months, worse posterior deltoid range of motion, And those folks who had higher ratios of lower extremity strength to upper extremity strength went on to develop pain. Their legs were able to generate so much power in the water that their shoulders were too weak to keep up. And over time, we're assuming and carrying forward that that led to overtraining essentially of the upper body. We can see that in the gym, with movements like push press or push jerk, we know the legs provide the majority of the motion and the power for those movements. And if our shoulders are not strong enough, yes, our legs can help us get that weight overhead. But if we're doing that a lot, and our shoulders are just not inherently stable, because we have a weak deltoid, then we can run into trouble where the ratio becomes so skewed that it can now be harmful. So I like to think of this is the legs begin to write checks that the shoulders can't cash, right, the shoulder is not moving through the full range of motion. And now those other muscles have to take over because that ratio is so skewed. And that's who shows up in your clinic door, right? I have stiff traps, I have a headache, I can't turn my head, I did a bunch of push jerk, I did a bunch of kipping handstand push ups, whatever, we need to treat that person's symptoms, we need to get their shoulders stronger, we need to control that ratio a little bit better. THE DELTOID: TRAINING So as we finish up here, how do we do that? How do we train the deltoid? A lot of people think they're training the deltoid, they think they're training shoulders, but they're not really doing it effectively, which is why they don't see a lot of results in whatever their goal might be for the shoulder, even if it's just to not have shoulder pain during exercise. And so we see a lot of what we might call bro shoulder press, right people sitting or standing in the gym. That arm is cocked out to 90 degrees of abduction and then they're kind of just pumping that weight up and down overhead, right? They're in a neutral grip. They're in a small amount of abduction They are technically in no flexion in a small amount of external rotation so in that movement that kind of seated or standing dumbbell press where the weight is just floating out in space is EMG studies would say that person is primarily training the triceps. If you ask that person in the moment, where do you feel this, they would probably tell you their triceps. And so getting people to understand what does deltoid training look like. is very important because some folks may think they're doing it, they may think they're doing a lot of it, and they're not. They're probably training triceps, they're probably primarily overloading a different muscle, which is just exacerbating the whole problem. They're probably allowing a dip in their legs in the strict press. So again, the legs are primarily generating the momentum for the movement. And they're probably just not performing full range of motion. And again, The deltoid is on the whole range of motion, especially at and above 120 degrees. So we need to be training full range of motion if we want a really strong, robust deltoid. Most people skip deltoid training completely, which is another factor, right? Coming into the gym and doing five by five strict press is not fun. It's not sexy. It's not as cool as ring muscle ups or a heavy deadlift or a heavy power clean or something like that, or even just doing push press or push jerk. It's more momentum. It feels cooler. You can lift more weight. And so strict press often gets left behind, which is the thing that some athletes and patients need to be training the most. Other athletes might be thinking, hey, I bench press a lot, I have strong shoulders, but when we look at studies of what muscles are active at what degrees of incline in a bench press, we see that we have to elevate that bench to almost 60 degrees just to begin to get a little bit of anterior delt work. And that we have to incline it to 90 degrees, which is, you know what, no longer a bench press, you are sitting upright, to begin to target the lateral and posterior heads of the deltoid. We had a cool study from Rodriguez, Redallo, and colleagues in the Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health in 2020 that looked specifically at that and said, hey, primarily in the bench press, even at an incline, you are still primarily targeting the pec muscles. Yes, at 60 degrees of incline, you begin to get more anterior delt, but bench press is for the chest, which some of you are saying, Alan, I knew that already before I listened to this podcast, but others out there might be thinking, hey, I thought that was also getting my delts. It's not. So we need to recognize that we cannot bench press our way to stronger deltoids. That will certainly get you a stronger chest, better push-up capacity and ability, but it will not do anything to really train your deltoids, and if that's a weakness area for you, help shore up that weakness. And so we need to get folks training shoulder flexion and shoulder abduction through the fullest range of motion possible, training them together. Yes, barbell strict press, alternating dumbbell press, standing, sitting, Z press, whatever. And in really, really being sticklers for people that they work the full range of motion. If you're going to use dumbbells, they need to start in the front rack position where the head of the dumbbell is on the shoulder, and you are pressing through 180 and 180 degrees of shoulder flexion and abduction. and you're not hanging out here and just giving it that little tricep hump that people like to do. Train the full range of motion. For those folks who are needing or wanting to do handstand pushups, handstand pushups are also a great way to train the vertical pressing pattern. If folks already have strict handstand pushup capacity, working at it as accessory work is great. Adding things like plates for a deficit will challenge bigger ranges of motion that will develop and continue to progress in a linear fashion vertical pressing, and deltoid strength. If they can't do strict, but they can kip, we can have them kick up to the wall, lower themselves through that range of motion, and do a handstand pushup negative. That is a great shoulder strengthener. I have a lot of athletes do that for accessory work. Even athletes that have strict handstand pushups and have good strict handstand pushup capacity, working that time under tension, especially if they can tolerate a deficit, is gonna make really robust shoulders, a really strong, healthy shoulder, And because they're training a deficit so often, when a workout shows up with regular handstand pushups or regular strict handstand pushups, those athletes fly through those workouts because their capacity has increased so much. At all costs with those folks, we want them to avoid kipping unless they're doing an eccentric, because again, that's the same as if they were standing up and doing a push press or a push jerk. We want to avoid having the legs help us train the shoulders. When we need to get strong shoulders, we should be training the shoulders. Folks can benefit a lot from complexes, things like doing a bunch of strict press followed by push press or push jerk. That is a great way to train the deltoid under fatigue, which relates a lot, especially to those athletes who are going to be using a lot of vertical pressing under cardiovascular fatigue. So one of my favorite ways to do that is 3 sets of 3 strict press, add some weight, 3 sets of 3 push press, add some weight, 3 sets of 3 push jerk. Starting fresh, working the deltoid, sets of 3, very heavy load, getting stronger. is the deltoid fatigues, using the legs a little bit to help it out with the push press, and as it gets really tired, using the legs even more in our push jerk. You'll find if you do a big complex like that, that your shoulders are tired, your shoulders are sore the next couple days, and that is really a unique feeling to have soreness in the deltoid that a lot of people don't experience because they're primarily not training the deltoid, or other muscles are taking over for them because their deltoid is so weak. For accessory work, the EMG exercise with the largest deltoid activation is a prone Y with the arm unsupported, moving in and out of 120 degrees of flexion abduction with the hand wound up and as much external rotation as possible. So that's from Mike Reinhold and colleagues, they have a bunch of research on EMG activation in the shoulder muscles. That's where the delt works the most out of a number of different exercises. So after training is done, after we've got our strict press or handstand push ups in, we can go to that prone Y do some burnout sets, something like that, and really begin to overload the deltoid in a way that facilitates a lot of strength. SUMMARY So the deltoid, largest or should be largest, strongest muscle in the shoulder built for work, built to move the shoulder through the whole range of motion, but only if we train it. Otherwise, those smaller muscles are going to take over. The shoulder is inherently unstable, that full 180 degrees of freedom. It doesn't have bony approximations that give it support as much as the hip or other joints, which means we need strong muscles, in particular, a strong deltoid to act as the stabilizers for us. In the clinic, we're primarily treating the aftermath of what happens to people when their shoulders are not as strong as other parts of their body, their legs, their traps, their posterior cuff, whatever. We need to clear up those local symptoms and then get that person on some sort of deltoid strengthening program so that the deltoid begins to do the work. Most folks will find that their capacity in the gym, in their fitness, often increases with overhead lifting, and they have less symptoms, less stiff traps, stiff neck, headaches, so on and so forth. A lot of folks have no issue doing vertical pulling. They might be doing vertical pulling multiple times per week, really training the lats, pull-downs, pull-ups, chin-ups, muscle-ups, whatever, but often they are avoiding vertical pressing, or they're using a variation of a vertical press where their legs help them a lot when they should be focusing on strict movements. Strict movements like strict press, strict handstand push-ups, and training the full range of motion. Remind these folks they are welcome to do as much bench press as they like, but you cannot bench press your way to a stronger deltoid. And when in doubt, again, keep it strict. So I hope this was helpful. I hope you have a wonderful Friday, a great weekend. If you want to join us online, our next cohort of fitness athlete level one online starts August 2nd. Fitness athlete level two online starts September 2nd. And then a couple chances to catch us out on the road. Zach Long will be teaching this weekend in Raleigh, North Carolina. And then in two weeks, we have the fitness athlete summit here in Fenton, Michigan at CrossFit Fenton. We'll have all four lead faculty from the division here, as well as our four teaching assistants, so our full staff will be on hand for that course. That's gonna be a lot of fun, so we hope to see you in two weeks here in Fenton. Have a great Friday, have a great weekend, bye everybody. OUTRO Hey, thanks for tuning in to the PT on ICE daily show.

Here's a question. Which two things are true at once? This week's guest is Robbie Kaplan. Robbie is a lawyer and the founding partner at Kaplan Hecker & Fink LLP. Robbie is best known for successfully challenging a key provision of the Defense of Marriage Act. Today, gay marriage is legal in America because Robbie Kaplan stood in front of the Supreme Court and argued for it. Recently, she was E. Jean Carroll's lawyer in both of her successful lawsuits against Donald Trump. And among Robbie's many awards is one from The Financial Times, which named her the “Most Innovative Lawyer of the Year”. People that know her, say about Robbie Kaplan, “she just sees things from a thousand different angles all at once, it's hard to keep up with her thought processes. She's not afraid, if she sees a problem, to go figure out some law that's going to allow her to fix it.”  Others say she is “a lawyer that you don't want to see opposing you.”  They say, “she's brilliant, she's unrelenting, she can't be intimidated and she's not going to back down. She eats bullies for lunch.” And the Washington Post has described Robbie as “a brash and original strategist, a crusader for underdogs who has won almost every legal accolade imaginable.” Which may make this admission surprising. Not everyone doubts themselves.  But many people do.  If you are one of those people, if sometimes feeling that you are an imposter is holding you back, is preventing you from unlocking the potential of the people around you, as in yourself, then let me offer you this. Two things can be true at once. You can feel like an imposter and achieve extraordinary things at the same time. You do have to be clear about the extraordinary things, and why they matter to you. But then that's what leadership is all about.
