    About this ebook

    Why Spine Snake?
    Because LIFE truly starts stinking when your spine starts shrinking!

    WHAT is Spine Snake?
    Eight Individual Snake-Like Movements collectively designed to optimize spine function simultaneously across all body planes of motion.
    Envisioned by Doctor of Chiropractic, Dr. David J. Doperak, Roman Chair Spine Snake is Real-World-Applicable Functional Spine Training utilizing a widely available and inexpensive piece of equipment in a new way - the Roman Chair.
    You’ll Learn EIGHT Snake-Like Movements:
    1. Spine Snake BASIC I
    2. Spine Snake BASIC II
    3. Snake Angel
    4. Sidewinder
    5. Little River
    6. Big River
    7. Spheres, and
    8. Swim Stroke - Freestyle
    You’ll learn HOW TO safely implement & perform each movement, when to progress from beginner to intermediate, and beyond thanks to detailed text, photos & video.

    Think about How YOU want to age.
    LIFE requires we bathe and shower, use the toilet, dress, and groom ourselves - a lot - over the course of a lifetime.
    The most basic activities of daily living are practically impossible without a healthy spine able to Flex, Twist & Bend at will.

    Brief History of the Roman Chair
    Historically, Roman Chair Exercise is Limited to 1 of 3 Repetitive Movements
    1. Flexion, Extension, and Hyperextension
    Hamstring, gluteal, and lumbar spine focused strengthening in the sagittal plane
    Repetitive up & down movement
    2. Abdominal Crunches
    Abdominal focused strengthening in the sagittal plane
    3. Oblique Abdominal Crunches
    Oblique abdominal focused strengthening in the coronal plane
    Repetitive side to side movement

    -THIS APPROACH IS NONFUNCTIONAL!-
    The current approach fails to account for “an interesting phenomenon” known as coupled motion.
    Coupled motion explains HOW the 24 stacked vertebrae of the spinal column actually move.
    Take for example what happens when the mid-body shifts left whereas the vertebrae in the upper and lower back actually twist in opposite directions.
    Point being: life imposes an entirely different demand on the spine compared to the aforementioned REPETITIVE movements.
