It’s been shown in a smattering of conditions that healthy individuals have access to a greater variety of movement patterns and have superior control of their bodies. As conditioning specialists and health care professionals it should therefore be our duty to coach movement variety. Yet when it comes down to it, we often find ourselves looking for movement that is just so. Is it possible that in our quest for wellness and ‘good’ movement we over-coach movement patterns and limit our pupil’s variety? In doing so, do we run the risk of instilling a fear of moving ‘poorly’? Join us on episode 57 as physical therapist Daan van den Akker discusses ‘good’ versus ‘bad’ movement and the importance of movement choices.
