72. Can different Movements really reduce PAIN? - AO POWER TIP
Welcome to today's episode of AO POWER TIP ( short powerful episodes) where we dive into the fascinating world of fascia and its profound connection to pain. We'll explore why movement is crucial, but not just any movement—it's about the right kind of movement in the right amounts. Firstly, we'll discuss why it's essential to move more, but with variety. Our bodies thrive on diverse movements, which keep the fascia healthy and prevent pain. Repeating the same motions or overloading certain areas can lead to restrictions and discomfort. We'll uncover how incorporating a range of activities can enhance flexibility and reduce the risk of injury. Next, we'll delve into why athletes need to move differently than their sport demands. Specialising too early or sticking strictly to sport-specific movements can create imbalances and overuse injuries. We'll highlight the importance of cross-training and how varying exercises can improve overall performance and longevity in sports. Lastly, we'll talk about the loss of spontaneous play in modern life and the trend of early sports specialisation. Our bodies are designed to engage in a multitude of activities, using all our systems. When we neglect this, we risk underutilising and weakening parts of our body. We'll explore how integrating diverse movements can restore balance and foster a more resilient body. Join us as we uncover the science behind fascia, pain, and the vital role of movement diversity in maintaining a healthy, pain-free life.
