I’ve covered this before in the last couple of years but it’s still a little, if at all, used piece of magic you can do right after you read this article.
The hyperarch mechanism is something “discovered” by Chinese strength and conditioning coach Chong Xie and refers to link between fascia tensioning and elite athletic performance.
He believes that elite athletic ability does not come from muscles like the glutes but rather the intrinsic muscles of the foot, which includes the fascia that runs through there.
Glute dominance according to Chong is not as simply achieved by doing some banded glute bridges but is a by-product of training your feet like they are intended, an impossible task if you train over cushioned shoes.
Only once your feet are working optimally can you truly be glute dominant because now the body can access the posterior chain by unlocking the power of the feet.
To get a little more technical on the matter once fascia is activated it provides a lot of tension that pulls your body parts internally into optimal position.
When you can optimally stack joints in the correct positions then you can transmit force more efficiently and effectively resulting in a more powerful athlete at a far lesser cost metabolically.
So as you improve your hyperarch mechanism your power improves but the effort required to display it decreases.
Here's a very quick video on the short foot exercise and how it works, which is the base level of hyperarch mechanism mastery...
