Connecting the Dots
from Movement Podcast Hosted by Gray Cook and Dr. Lee Burton
The way the human body connects is fascinating. Wouldn't you agree? Understanding the body as a whole and not just the sum of its parts brings greater awareness to how everything works together. Today, we explore this concept, also known as regional interdependence. We discuss movement compensation, how we adapt our movement for better and sometimes for worse. Gray dives into why our joints favor either mobility or stability and how all this applies to your movement. We won't give away any more without listening to it for yourself but stay tuned until the end when we close the episode with another Fireside Chat with Gray.
