Ep 6: Anatomy 301: Beyond Lever-and-Pulley Biomechanics
from The Body Awake
In today's short episode, we talk 3 truths in anatomy that take us beyond simple lever-and-pulley mechanics when visioning the body: how tissues slide, how muscle contraction doesn't just pull bones together but also presses laterally and deep, and a vision of fluid pressure and volume. Phew. You don't need a degree in anatomy for this one, though, just a body and some curiosity.
