E16: Why Range of Motion Is Overrated: What the Experts Get Wrong with Jonathan Warren

The conversation covers a wide range of practical training and coaching topics, including appraising gym equipment, the application of ECM training, and the direct relationship between rehab and performance training. The discussion also highlights the overrated nature of range of motion in training. We delve deep into individual movement assessments, specifically focusing on the wide vs. narrow ISA concept, emphasizing the need for coaches to solve actual movement problems rather than getting caught up in rigid categorization. The role of experience, intuition, and scientific knowledge is highlighted as essential for effective coaching, programming philosophy, and execution. Finally, the discussion addresses the challenges of transitioning in-person clients to online training, and the concept of biotensegrity and its relevance to body mechanics.
