We last talked to Dr. Ramos on Episode 14 and are very happy to have him back.

We cover:

• How all movements/exercises should be safe, productive and sustainable
• All movement and positions are context specific to the person standing in front of you
• How there is no specific range that all people will fall into
• Why movement screens are not as helpful as some may think
• How protective mechanisms persist even after tissues have healed
• and more!
