T-Tapp: A Physical Therapy Approach To Fitness

by Lani Muelrath, M.A. the Fitness DreamMaker

T-Tapp (named for its creator Teresa Tapp) is a series of movements designed to put the body in proper functional alignment, restore metabolic function, and stands on its own as a complete workout as well as enhancing the effectiveness of ALL of your workouts.

Basically, with T-Tapp, your entire system gets "tuned up" like a finely adjusted machine. Due to utilization of comprehensive, compound muscle movement, rapid reshaping can take place.

This technique has some similar principles to Yoga and Pilates, but at the same time it is nothing like them!

With many original copyrighted moves, T-Tapp…

T-Tapp:

• … is comprehensive! Apply the principles to any other exercise technique to reach your goals.
• … will enhance any other exercise form and schedule.
• …the movement sequences are very rehabilitative, especially for the lower back and knees. They look so simple - but they provide a workout like no other.
• … is comprehensive - never working just one muscle group, the T-Tapp Workout is designed to fatigue muscle groups layer by layer,
• … is done without special equipment, requiring only a few square feet of space.

What does T-Tapp Look like?

When watching the T-Tapp workout, you may be reminded a bit of Pilates, Yoga,Tai chi, dance, isometrics, Alexander Technique….yet you will also see something unique and like no other. T-Tapp takes the best of the best and most powerful approaches to building the body, and, combined with Teresa Tapp's patented principles and signature moves, synergizes to a whole new workout.

The entire Total Workout can be done standing in an area with just enough room to fully extend arms and legs to the side, front and back. No special equipment aside from good supportive shoes and flexible clothing is required.

Where To Get Started with T-Tapp

I have seen phenomenal changes with just the basics, The T-Tapp Total Workout, practiced with proper form to personal max.

The total body involvement (comprehensive, compound movement and sequential design) conditions your body in ways you may not have focused on before:

First, at its core. This means deep abdominal layers, and connections at spine and ribcage. The isometric nature of the holds coupled with challenges to balance to keep everything working together delivers a complete, comprehensive workout.

Beyond this starting point, there are other signature moves that can deliver surprising results: the Organs in Place move for flattening and conditioning the abdominal wall; Hit the Floor for additional mid/lower body work; and a host of other sequences and detail moves that can provide specialization and variety should one so desire.

Volumes of information detailing T-Tapp videos and form can be found at T-Tapp.com and also at T-Tapp Tips.
