If you don’t have a visual of the Magnus, dial one up on a device. The Magnus wants to lengthen and stretch to its fullest extent, attaching the inner knee to the sit bone on the underside of the pelvic bowl. Next, dial-up an image of a skateboarder demonstrating the action of lengthening and stretching the Magnus. Observe these two images side by side or alternately — the Magnus muscle and the Magnus in action.
Visualize signals crossing the gap between your inner knee and your sit bone, the same side of the body. Observe the muscle image for clarification as to where the signals actually connect. Signals can be similar to radio signals, vibration, color, or others.
Observe the skateboarder, or, if you have skateboarded in the past, dial-up your memories until you feel your skateboarder's muscles wake up. Then, without moving, visualize the skateboarder move in your body. Next, visualize the soles lighting up, sending signals to the leg sockets and sit bones.
Observe the skateboarder's Magnus, long and flexible, controlling the trick or jump. Visualize you’re doing the trick or jump until your muscles twitch and wake up. If you want more from the exercise, add music or use virtual reality goggles for a visceral effect.
Skiing is another great visual to follow when exploring the Magnus Range. Observe footage of a downhill skier and follow along. Visualize lengthening the Magnus and drop into a tuck position, poles folded under your arms. Visualize expanding them to handle a high jump. Add music. Make friends with your Magnus today!
