October 11, 2011

Lately there has been a ton of dubstep music around the LCI.  I have to say that I am intrigued with it and is about as close to heavy metal as electronica is going to get.  However, this is not the time nor the platform to discuss the differences and merits to genres of music.  What it is, is a training site filled with useful, and sometimes useless, information.  What I want you to pay attention to, and something that blows my mind, is the body control that some of the individuals who dance dubstep demonstrate.  They are strength to bodyweight ratio strong.  Plain and simple.  Check out this guys control, and a pretty chill dub track as well.  If we can learn to control our movements the way this man controls his body our chances of having an injury go way down.  Also, if we can move slow like the man in this video while under load, our ability to add muscle mass goes up.  All this and more learned through lessons in dubstep :)
