    Ep 48. How Internal Pressure Impacts Movement & Performance

    In this episode, we break down one of the most overlooked concepts in biomechanics: internal pressure—how your breathing, rib cage, and pelvis create the foundation for movement, stability, and force production. What You’ll Learn How breathing shapes movement: Why inhalation increases abdominal pressure and improves mobility, while exhalation increases pelvic/rib pressure for force production. Why the diaphragm leads every movement: It contracts 70 milliseconds before your limbs move. Pressure + performance: How internal pressure determines strength, internal rotation, stability, and efficiency. Exercise strategies to manipulate pressure: Sidelying variations Farmer carries Hinges & heavy squats Split squat variations for different pressure needs Key Takeaways All movement starts from the inside out. If pressure isn’t managed, force leaks—and compensation patterns show up. Better pressure = better movement, strength, and control. Pressure principles are foundational in the EVOLVE Biomechanics Mentorship.

    Ep 42: How To Fix Rounded Shoulders

    In this episode, Alex Effer breaks down what rounded shoulders really are, and more importantly, what they aren’t. Most people are told it’s just tight pecs and weak back muscles, but that’s not the full story. Alex explains why simply stretching your chest or rowing more isn’t going to fix it long-term, and how compression, rib cage position, and center of mass play a bigger role than you think. Alex shares the exercises I use, like prone work, side-lying drills, and scapular plane movements, to restore posture, open up both the front and back of the body, and actually change the shape of your shoulders over time.

    Ep 16- The Real Cause of Swayback Posture

    In this Podcast episode, I discuss what Swayback Posture is, why people may present this way, what it tells us about movement and some strategies you may use to get started on addressing it! In my experience, it isn't just about tight muscles but more about what is leading to stiffness and the postural compensation.

    Ep 15. Rethinking Triple Extension

    In this Podcast episode, I discuss why the concept of Triple Extension isn't the most accurate description when thinking of movements like running, jumping, cleans etc. From my experience, more people need to learn how to move around the knee instead of through it.

    13. The Ultimate Warm-up Routine

    In this Podcast episode, I discuss how to build a well-rounded Warm-up Routine. There are many who completely skip the warm-up, find it useless or create excessively long warm-ups.

    12. Why Posture Matters

    In this Podcast episode, I discuss why we should be using Posture as part of our assessment to better predict how the body will move. There is a big divide between those who believe it is useless, others who spend too much time focusing on it. I fall within the middle. It is an extremely effective assessment tool when applied the right way. This why I break down how we can use it, why it's important to consider, and an example of how Posture can provide us with important information about exercise selection and programming!
