our birthright
1
nearly all of us are born with a high-spec postural support system:
-
anti-gravity effect
-
ensures productive, vertical living
-
two-stage fail-safe approach
​
primary postural support:
-
uses our quiet strength (reflexive, type I muscle fibres)
-
reflexively controlled
-
no need to actively manage or control
-
operates tirelessly
-
all-day-long ease & alignment
-
safety off-switch to protect spine and core
​
secondary postural support:
-
uses our active strength (volitional, type II muscle fibres)
-
switches on whenever safety of primary system is compromised
-
operates as a fail-safe protective back-up
-
still reflexively controlled
-
no need to actively manage or control
-
although additional conscious bracing is possible
-
works as long as it can to get the job done.

catastrophic system failure!
1
if life were only that simple!
overload protection:
-
primary system is very sensitive
-
sensibly designed to protect spine and core
-
safety-switch when in danger of overload
-
routes all protection to secondary system
​
modern living → safety switch stuck gets ON
-
primary system gets disabled & weak
-
secondary systems works until it breaks
-
normal life stops when both systems fail​​​​​​

is there a better way?
1
why does nature prefer quiet strength over active strength to power postural support?
​​
-
in almost every other way, quiet strength is a better choice!
-
apart from when it fails!​
