Joe DeGain joins us as we discuss the essential movement themes that are common in all foundational movements. These themes broadly categorize similar positions and movement patterns, whether the athlete is static or dynamic. By understanding these themes, trainers can evaluate movement and apply them to specific contexts.

The movement themes include midline stabilization, core-to-extremity movement, balance about the frontal plane, posterior-chain engagement, sound hip function, active shoulders, full range of motion about a joint, and effective stance and/or grip. By learning how to apply these themes, trainers can develop a strong coaching skill set.

While not all movements fit neatly into these categories, understanding these themes can be a valuable tool for coaches. Improve your coaching abilities by learning the fundamental movement themes discussed in this episode.
