Tennis Super-learning Program Leg Muscles Stretch Critical

Posted by admin on February 26, 2009

Ralph Zuranski and Captain Biorhythm invested many years developing effective and comprehensive stretching, fitness and biorhythm awareness programs to optimize human performance in all areas of life and minimize injuries in tennis, karate, surfing, skateboarding and body-building…virtually any sport.

When Ralph discovered the value of stretching in 1980, he was Technical Director of Family Fitness Centers in San Diego. It really blew his mind how rock hard his muscles and body were.

His right side was so over-developed, he looked like Popeye. So, Ralph took one year off and to live his life as Captain Biorhythm, dressed in his costume every day, to develop his left, non-dominant hand and right brain hemisphere. It took a while before Ralph stopped the war going on inside his mind. Finally, he made peace with Captain Biorhythm.

The younger you teach kids about stretching, biorhythm awareness and fitness, the fewer injuries they will have over their lifetimes. Ralph just wished he had known about the importance of stretching, biorhythm awareness and brain and body integration at an early age. Most of his broken bones, mistakes and severe injuries probably could have been avoided.

The goal is to become a body and brain-integrated Bioman or Biowoman who can effectively use both sides of their body and brain simultaneously to access their true genius and super athlete potential and abilities. Anyone can become a Bioman or Biowoman if they are willing to use both sides of their body and brain with out being crushed by the FEAR of FAILURE.

Physical, emotional, and intellectual biorhythm balance is a answer to many of the problems facing anyone on a daily basis. Everyone can benefit by learning how their body and mind work. They can improve their health and performance in all areas of life. Once you learn about biorhythm awareness and train your mind, it will function at optimal levels.

STOP THE WAR GOIN ON INSIDE EVERY PERSON’S MIND!!!!

Timothy Gallwey in is book “Inner Game of Tennis” described the war. He identified the “Self 1″, the logical, judgemental, mathematical, verbal, competitive, time orientation LEFT BRAIN hemisphere that constantly battles against the “Self 2″, the creative, spontaneous, intuitive, emotional, orientation in space, and in charge of life support RIGHT BRAIN hemisphere.

To stop the wars and misery in the world, everyone needs to make peace with the part of their personality that is being suppressed by the other brain hemisphere. The solution to the world’s problems begins with each person.

Right brainers need to get more in touch with their left brain persona and visa versa. Working to develop the weak side of your personality and body BY CHOICE will provide marvelous benefits. We need to cease being our own worst critic and enemy and become our best friend and lovers of ourselves.

In an average tennis game, before Ralph and Captain Biorhythm became integrated, a destructive process always ended in failure.

Ralph, the left brain persona, who is the logical, judgmental, and competitive insessantly fought for dominance against Captain Biorhythm, the right brain persona, who is creative, spontaneous, emotional, and intuitive.

Since the right brain controls the biological activity of the body, when Captain Biorhythm did not perform well enough, Ralph psychologically abused him. Captain Biorhythm consequently got off and performed poorly to get even. Ralph ended up defeating himself.
