Analyzing how you move is one of the very first thing we do when you start training and with good reason.
If you are having a pain in any movement, or moving in a limited way, then there is an issue you must sort out. If you don’t address movement issues, then you are certain to encounter problems sooner rather than later.
The pain of lack of movement can only be known by those who experience it, and those who become pain-free only know the elation that this feeling brings.
The journey from learning to walk, to run and then going through a school system, then into adult life can throw up all sorts of challenges, and I see all sorts of abilities coming out through the other side.
Most people by the time they get to us have developed some kind of back problem, hip problem or tightness, mobility problem, balance issues and in general they don’t really move around like they used to when they were 18 years of age.
Unwinding those problems can take some time, but you have to sort them out no matter what. I find I spend a lot more of my time on rehab with individuals than ever before.
This is due to kids becoming less and less active and growing up to be less able to move well, also i see more and more adults who either never exercised before, or when they did they were never shown the importance of movement in their life, and now need to re-learn the fundamentals of movement and the benefits that brings.
The best investment you can ever make is learning how your body really moves, what can cause it problems, and how to avoid and overcome pain through moving the right way on a consistent basis.
