Do you really have bad posture? What even is posture? DocJen and Dr. Dom break down the misconceptions around posture and unveil the truths around how posture is dynamic rather than a static hold. With an overarching emphasis on the act of moving frequently, they preach the message that the “best” posture is the next posture. Throughout the episode, they shift the narrative around addressing posture into addressing resting state, explaining the mechanism behind why you tend to resort to a particular resting position. They discuss the role the brain and the nervous system play in resting posture, as well as the contemporary findings research presents on posture. Moreover, DocJen and Dr. Dom discuss cueing posture and how attempting to hold a certain position may be disrupting the breath and pressures systems within the body, exacerbating threat signals perceived by the body and brain, and potential consequences of this disruption. Finally, they address their opinions on the use of tools to “correct” posture and provide their biggest tips in finding a more optimal resting state for YOUR body. Tune in to learn all about posture!

Do you practice yoga? Practice yoga and still have pain? Stretching out aches and pains? Mesmerized by all the yogic shapes? Hiro discusses his method of bridging science and anatomy with the spirituality of Yoga. Hiro paves the path of his journey from Ashtanga Yoga to his current Body Smart Yoga method. He shares his story with pain arising after years of the Ashtanga practice and how he changed his pain game by introducing active stretching, engagement, and strength to his practice. Throughout the episode, Hiro discusses how mobility and different types of engaged stretching can allow safe access into different postures, can rid your pain, and how strength is not just built in the gym. He addresses the trending wave of focus on aesthetics and shapes in yoga, and how that distracts from respecting anatomical differences. Using the example of pigeon pose, Hiro dives into the urge of needing to stretch unstable, weak, and tight muscles and how that may be non-optimal as increased stretching shifts into targetting passive structures (joints and ligaments) in the body. Through this example, Hiro highlights the importance of integration of flexibility and strength, and how this practice of mobility can help hyper and hypo-mobility individuals. Finally, Hiro shares his programs and challenges that outline the drills, exercises, and knowledge that got him out of pain. Let’s take a deep dive into practicing yoga without pain!
