You might think about being a little more cautious before make assumptions and start casting dispersions about people you do not know. One of the benefits of growing old, and something not uncommon amongst curious people that are my age is the opportunity to study many things. I never said math was my only area of formal training. I just said I taught Calculus at a California University, you made your own inferences from that. Math is the language of science. Being proficient in it has made it easy for me to understand and learn many other disciplines.
In addition to my degrees in mathematics and in computer science, I have completed at the collegiate level 1 year of exercise physiology, two years of biology, 1 year of chemistry, 2 years of physics, 2 years of philosophy, 4 years of English, 1 year of drama and 2 years of French. I have produced proofs that advanced the fields of Math Analysis, Differential equations, Combinatorics, Set Theory and computer science. I am proficient in electronics (have to be in my current business). I have a General Class contractors license, and over 1 million square feet of construction performed under my direct management (I have studied structural engineering). I have used my initial education in Math and subsequent teaching experience to become proficient in many fields in the last 30 years. That is a lot of time and I used it to satisfy my curiousity and better myself in life. My informal training is even more extensive then my formal training. Oh, and I still get requests to teach part time which I sometimes do.
Today I own my own business and outside of the primary function of the business I am a paid consultant to a fortune 100 company. I would be shocked if there was anybody on this forum that doesn't know this company and bet a significant number of people here would like to work for it, I would do it for free because it is so much fun. They hire me to research concepts they are commercializing in fields outside of my core area of education because they know that if I say I can prove something then I can.
Please, do not bash me because you think I am bragging about my past. I know many people much brighter, more capable and more successful then me, and I learn from them frequently. My very good friend who is probably more intelligent then me produced the Stephen Hawking videos. I just want you to understand that I am probably capable of understanding and analyzing the concepts being discussed here.
Now I haven't formally said that I can prove anything about pose. When and if I do you will know. I have made some simple statements about gravity (you can't run without it, if you jump off the ground it brings you down), I shared my personal experience, I said I haven't YET found anything in pose contradicting the laws of physics, and pointed out what I consider to be errors in logic, interpretation, inference, causal relationships etc. As a teacher I understand that we often use metaphors that are not perfect to help people achieve the desired understanding/result and it is necessary to identify and separate them when analyzing the statements on the pose site.
Lastly, a logically correct statement can be made by anyone whether they have an arms length of credentials or none. I have met many scholastics that couldn't reason themselves out of a box and many people with nothing more than a high school education that were standouts in their field because they had extensive experience, an informal education and quite frankly were just good. If you have a degree in biomechanics then that can be very useful here, or if you don't but have studied extensively and can present your understandings in a way that others can understand then that can also be useful.
I previously said that before I knew about pose I had experience with someone that taught a similar technique (before Romanov even had an education). I am now very curious about the mechanics. I believe that a fundamental change in my form would have got me the sub 4 mile time I was close to but never achieved. A few of my very succesful training partners seemed to have used something similar to pose. They were a female Olympic marathoner, a 2:16 male marathoner, and a sub 4 minute miler. When I was a youth those were excellent performances.
I would like to have a discussion about pose with people that park their egos at the door and truly want to entertain a discourse that could better the knowledge of all me included. And I will do this offline if that is the only way it can be accomplished.
