@ LURKERNOMORE..
you ever work on a tight 282 lb bber? when i work on normal size clients i use the technique taught by my teachers with a.r.t..
with guys like Dennis i have to modify the technique.. cant use hand method , elbows , palms , knuckles are need to break through thicker adhesions ... i never said i just use a.r.t .. i use some rofling, some trigger point and some deep tissue techniques.. what is needed to open up the areas of concern..
you take a look at his recent back shot [4 weeks out] and let me know if its a cheap imitation of therapy.. hes not complaining right now ..
but then again to each is own...
