We hear how Tim Anderson's Original Strength & the work of Dan John formed a pathway for Allen to rebuild his life (physically & emotionally) & how he has managed to go from being in constant pain & barely able to walk to competing in Strongman & now coaching & helping others. Parts of this conversation are uncomfortable, but Allen holds nothing back & what we are left with is a sense of hope, promise & hopefully a brighter future ahead.
"If you want to run faster, move better." That's the advice of several top running coaches I have spoken with. It's particularly important for us older athletes, because as you might already know (and be experiencing) lack of mobility is part of the aging process. Fortunately, today's guest Tim Anderson from Original Strength has a solution to the mobility loss, he calls it 'Pressing Reset'. As humans we are designed and born to be strong and healthy throughout our entire lives, and in our conversation Tim will explain how 5 simple movements that we all learn as babies literally builds our brain and ties our nervous system together. The cool thing about those movements that we're born with is that we keep them forever. We don't lose them! In the conversation Tim explains how, with just 10 minutes of easy movement every day, you can tap back into those original movements, no matter what age you are, and rediscover your original strength. We talk about a lot of concepts that we have discussed in previous podcasts, such as: Nose breathing at rest and during exercise Head and eye control and how it impacts posture Rocking, rolling and crawling - The basis of simple movement The secret to aging well Born to Run, going barefoot and how to walk well How to Press Reset as part of your daily routine To find out more about Tim Anderson you can go to: Website OriginalStrength.net YouTube Original Strength Facebook Original Strength Instagram Original Strength Get a Copy of Tim's book Pressing Reset: Original Strength Reloaded How to discover your own Original Strength **To get a free copy of my personal daily mobility routine, please click HERE** To contact Beth regarding Life Coaching, please visit her website at BethanyWardLifeCoaching.uk.

In this week's episode, Mark Shropshire, a renowned figure in the realm of movement assessment and rehabilitation, explains the importance of foundational movement resets like diaphragmatic breathing, head control, rolling, rocking, and crawling. These staples of the 'Original Strength' system are demonstrated to improve core stability, enhance proprioception, and alleviate common aches and pains.

Proprioceptive Training: The episode emphasizes the significance of proprioception in maintaining body stability and how fundamental movement patterns enhance proprioceptive feedback.

Today's podcast features coach Tim Anderson. Tim is the co-founder of Original Strength and has been a personal trainer for over 20 years. He is an accomplished author and speaker known for streamlining complex ideas into simple and applicable information. Tim is passionate about helping people realize they were created to be strong and healthy. He has written and co-written many books on this subject, including The Becoming Bulletproof Project, Habitual Strength, Pressing RESET, and Original Strength Performance. Tim's message is simple yet powerful: We were created to feel good and be strong throughout life. Many systems, philosophies, and assessments start with clients and athletes feeling broken, while Tim's work blends a positive message with functional strength and restorative movements. The longer I go through my journey as a coach, athlete, and mover, the more I value Tim's work, and I have incorporated many of his ideas into my own methods and programming. On today's episode, Tim and I discuss fluidity of movement, body tension, and creativity, followed by a discussion on utilizing a variety of speeds in training. Much of our talk centers around the benefits of slow movements and how these can, in turn, benefit much higher velocity motions, as well as ideas on how these fit in training complexes. Tim speaks on this and much more in this episode. Today's episode is brought to you by TeamBuildr, the Plyomat, and LILA Exogen.

Otherwise you're disconnected." - Tim Anderson “So I'm a huge fan of exploring slow motion in movements. Now, I do primarily do that, like during pressing reset, like say for crawls or rolls or rocks. But you can, you can do it with any, any movement whatsoever. And the beautiful thing about going slow, though, is that it teaches you so much about your body, but it also exposes the areas of, of your movement that you don't really have control of yet” - Tim Anderson “Sugar Ray Leonard, like, he was extremely, he was lightning fast, but he would also do super slow shadow boxing to, like, where like it trick photography, slow motion.” - Tim Anderson "It's not that going fast isn't great for you. It's just that it's only one end of the spectrum. You got all this other room that you can play in and learn from that actually will help you move faster when you do want to go fast." - Tim Anderson "So it's not beyond just moving slow. Um, is to. To kind of be curious to see where you can move. Like, a lot of times your body will. It'll give you barriers. You know, a lot of people say, well, I can't move that way because I get stuck right here. Great. Like, use that. That barrier to learn from it." - Tim Anderson
In this episode Peter & James debrief & discuss the ‘Survive to Thrive' weekend workshop with Dan John & Tim Anderson that was recently hosted at Unique Results. A combination of practical & theory including much of Dan's latest thinking around ‘Easy Strength', assessment & his movement matrix blended with Tim's ‘Original Strength' resets created a unique learning experience. What did we learn, what have we taken away to apply, what was clarified for us & what were our overall impressions of the weekend? A concise review of two packed days of learning.

Can Barefoot Shoes Handle Pickleball? – The MOVEMENT Movement with Steven Sashen Episode 213 with Piers Kwan In 2010, Piers Kwan became a certified hardstyle kettlebell instructor under Pavel Tsatsouline. He started with RKC and now represents StrongFirst. He learns and teaches with Tim Anderson and the Original Strength team. Piers currently enjoys pickleball, delving excessively deeply into random interests, and hanging out with his lovely wife and three fantastic daughters. Listen to this episode of The MOVEMENT Movement with Piers Kwan about how barefoot shoes can handle pickleball and other court sports. Here are some of the beneficial topics covered on this week's show: - How Original Strength focuses on restoring natural movement patterns to help individuals move as they were designed to. - How people can transition from sedentary and physically restricted states to vibrant and capable individuals. - How Original Strength serves as the foundational framework, enabling individuals to pursue various physical activities without hindrance. - Why inexperience sports participants, especially those lacking stability and a connection to the ground, are prone to injury. - why wearing minimalist footwear can improve foot strength, reduce running injuries, and provide an active recovery.
