🇬🇧 🐴 Planes, Axes, and Articulations: Human and Equine Pilates Biomechanics

The source presents a comprehensive interview between a journalist named Ferid Gharbi and a horse named Gandour, the mascot of Studio Biopilates Paris, to discuss the biomechanics of movement. The central theme involves comparing the anatomical plans, axes, and articulations of both humans and horses. The discussion highlights that while both species follow the same physical laws, human movement prioritizes mobility and dissociation across multiple planes (sagittal, frontal, and transversal), whereas the horse emphasizes continuity, stability, and propulsion primarily within the sagittal plane. Specific comparisons are made between major joints, such as the shoulder, elbow, hip, and spine, concluding that humans seek stability within a wide range of motion, while horses restrict degrees of freedom to maximize power and endurance.Hosted on Ausha.
