Title: ATW Muscle
Post by: BigMac on Apr 21, 2008, 08:24: AM
Has anyone heard about this? Palle and JF have 'atw muscles' at the top of thier leg. Just wondering if anyone else has one? Also is it just insiders who have them?

Gay topic i know but I am just curious =)

of course. its known for a while as the freestyle(r) muscle.
not only insiders. outsiders have to lift up there leg aswell ;)

do you have one?

I would of thought insiders only have them because inside atws are more to do with lifting the ball up whereas outside atws its about keeping the spin and less leg muscle.

thats how i see it anyway.

for me its much harder to do multiple atw,s outside, i always do them inside

That means outside atws are easier than inside?

 I am used to do inside so I feel it's tired but easier.

I'll train more on out atws from now on.

i think its more or less what your used to...
for me outsides are easier, but look at the people who do insides, palle, ecuabol, JF... they seem to be able to do it forever

Title: Re: ATW Muscle
Post by: sputnik on Apr 21, 2008, 08:53: PM

Title: Re: ATW Muscle
Post by: Sander on Apr 22, 2008, 01:41: AM
how do you know they have such a muscle? have you seen it?

and i think outside is easier but thats because its how i learned it, inside i can do only 3

The "atw muscle" you're talking about is the tensor fasciae latae & everyone has it, it's just that some have it more pronounced than others.
