Today we are recapping some of the topics we covered in the past podcast episodes mostly revolving around playing with movement, water intake, and whether or not we should consider the squat a functional movement or not.

• Learning new movements
• How does posture and using your body spatial awareness help you move
• We are asymmetrical by nature and that can be advantageous
• Are you glutes really miss firing?
• Find the meaningful movement for you
• How many actual true orthopedic tests are seen?
• Orthopedic tests do not necessarily give us any context of what to do next
• Squatting is not as functional as we think it is
• We need to hinge more and hinge better
• Brazillian Sit to Stand Study: Here is a blog that reviews the movements that were scored
• What are we actually achieving with rolling or myofascial release

• Return to a natural movement that we can do at anytime anywhere
• The modern world has a lack of interest in movement or discourages movement
• We are part of a society where we sit too much based on the interest of our work and jobs
• Environment and community constraints make it challenging for people to move
• We are disembodied through our digital world
• We are feeling the lack of connection, people want to tune in
• We are trying to magnify and encourage movement
• What is movement mapping?
• As we move we have proprioception receptors throughout our body that gives us our body awareness (where we are in space)
• Chronic pain we see a decrease or lack in our movement mapping skills, we have a fuzzy image of how we move
• Ex. gymnast has really good mapping skills. They have really good proprioception awareness
• Improving mapping capabilities can help you get out of your negative feedback loop and reduce chronic pain

• The fitness industry has been significantly shaped and altered as a result of CrossFit coming into the space over 10 years prior
• Much of what we see in the mainstream eye of what fitness is has been influenced by CrossFit
• Just like in business we see survival of the fittest and the gyms that are doing well are doing well because they have a great product, meaning their coaching is on point and their programming and dialed in for the market they serve
• Systematic programming is really one of the main differentiators that separate the good and the bad and who is getting hurt or not
• Scalability is the name of the game = CrossFit is for anyone regardless of previous history or injuries
• KODA offers a the Koda Quick Start for those that are interested in more one-on-one training options before getting started in group classes
• Consistency is one of the main factors that holding people back from reaching their goals and potential
• If we are not consistent we cannot expect to see the results we are looking for
• Growth mindset, think beyond your current circumstances so that you have something to work towards and strive for
• Book Recommendation: Mindset By Carol Dweck
