Carol Ann McDevitt spent two years looking forward to a trip to Egypt. But an accident on a camel ride completely changed her travel plans and her understanding of travel insurance. McDevitt and other Canadians share what people should know about travel health policies before packing their bags.
In this episode of On The Mark, host Mark Immelman is joined by David Bertoli (aka “Davide”) for a deep, visual-first breakdown of how the golf swing actually works in 3D—not as frozen “positions,” but as moving phases driven by what the body is doing internally. David shares how his team built a 3D system that reveals the skeleton, muscles, and fascia in motion—so golfers and coaches can stop chasing a Rory/McIlroy “look” and start optimizing their movement pattern. A major focus is David's framework: the Six Phases of the Golf Swing, built around Center of Mass (COM) movement + Anatomy Trains / fascia chains. They explore why the pelvis is the engine, how COM moves (horizontally and vertically), why maximum unweighting matters for speed, and how “carefree” phase-based movement beats “careful” position-chasing every time. In This Episode, You'll Learn: ✅ Why 3D changes everything: stop studying the club “outside,” start understanding the body “inside” ✅ The difference between positions vs phases (and why a golf swing is a “moving sculpture”) ✅ What Center of Mass actually is, where it sits, and why the pelvis is so tied to it ✅ How COM moves in an “almost infinity-sign” pattern (and why it anticipates the club) ✅ Why elite players get lower than address in transition (and how that fuels speed) ✅ What fascia is (and why the body is a “full web”) + how anatomy chains store/release energy ✅ The Six Phases: from address → shaft parallel → pelvis rotation → top → max unweighting → impact → hands chest-high ✅ A huge myth at impact: why you should not try to open shoulders as much as the ribcage, and ✅ The “eccentric load” trio: core stretch, lead-shoulder stretch, lead-wrist stretch (and why thoracic rotation matters.) Key Takeaways Stop copying positions. Many great swings look different—but the best swings move through similar phases. Pelvis movement predicts swing quality. If the pelvis (and COM) moves well, the rest organizes more naturally. Speed requires going down before going up. The best players drop lower than address, then push up fast into impact. Fascia matters. Efficient golf is stored energy → redirected forces → released energy, not “hit the ball harder.” Carefree beats careful. When golfers chase positions, they get tense; when they move through phases, they flow. After you have listened to this podcast, go to YouTube, search and subscribe to Mark Immelman and watch the show to see David's graphics and presentation of his golfswing research and how his "Phases of the Swing" work.

What if one of the most powerful and influential parts of a woman's body is also one of the least understood?In this fascinating and empowering episode, we sit down with Lisa Fitzpatrick, physiotherapist, yoga teacher, and female pelvic and sexual health educator, to explore the hidden wisdom, strength, and healing potential of the female pelvis.Far more than a physical structure, the pelvis plays a central role in women's health, fertility, sexuality, emotional wellbeing, nervous system regulation, and sense of personal power. Yet for many women, it remains surrounded by shame, silence, misunderstanding, and disconnection.Together, we discuss why so many women feel disconnected from their bodies, how stress and trauma can become stored in the pelvic floor, and the impact this can have on everything from menstrual health and intimacy to menopause and overall wellbeing.Lisa also shares practical insights on breathwork, embodiment, nervous system regulation, and the importance of creating space for radical self-care.Whether you're navigating menstrual cycles, perimenopause, menopause, pelvic health challenges, or simply want to develop a deeper connection with your body, this conversation offers a powerful invitation to reconnect with the wisdom that has been within you all along.In this episode, you'll discover:Why the pelvis is often referred to as a centre of feminine power and wisdomHow stress, trauma, and shame can affect pelvic healthThe connection between the pelvic floor, nervous system, and emotional wellbeingWhy many women experience a wake-up call during midlife and menopauseHow breathwork and gentle movement can help you reconnect with your bodyThe importance of radical self-care for long-term health and vitalityThis is a conversation about reclaiming your voice, honouring your body, and discovering the magic that exists within every woman.Listen now and explore why the female pelvis may hold more power than you ever realised.____Lisa Fitzpatrick is a women's health educator, physiotherapist, speaker and author of the forthcoming book Sexy Menopause — a bold reframe of midlife as a time of sensuality, wisdom, healing and feminine power rather than decline.With decades of experience in physiotherapy and a special interest in pelvic and sexual health, Lisa is known for blending evidence-informed women's health education with soulful conversations about embodiment, intimacy, spirituality and emotional healing.Her work explores the powerful connection between the pelvis, nervous system, sexuality, creativity and self-worth.Based in Byron Bay, Australia, Lisa writes and speaks about menopause, pelvic health, relationships, post-traumatic growth and the reclamation of feminine identity in midlife.Through her Substack, speaking events, podcast interviews and clinical work, she invites women into a more empowered and deeply embodied relationship with themselves and their bodies.Her upcoming book Sexy Menopause challenges outdated cultural narratives around aging and opens a new conversation about desire, vitality, confidence and awakening in the second half of life.You can find out more here:Sexy Menopausewww.instagram.com/sexy.menopausewww.facebook.com/thenewfeminineleader
El suelo pélvico sigue siendo uno de los grandes desconocidos de la salud, aunque nos acompaña durante toda la vida y está implicado en funciones tan importantes como el sostén de los órganos pélvicos, el control de esfínteres, el placer o el parto. En el episodio de hoy hablo con Sandra Gómez, fisioterapeuta especialista en suelo pélvico, sexóloga y comunicadora, sobre qué es realmente el suelo pélvico, qué síntomas no deberíamos normalizar y por qué pérdidas de orina, dolor en las relaciones sexuales, sensación de peso, dolor pélvico o molestias durante el ejercicio pueden ser señales de que algo no está funcionando bien. También hablamos de anticonceptivos hormonales, sequedad, libido, vestibulodinia, dolor menstrual, endometriosis, ejercicio físico, running, crossfit, respiración abdominopélvica, ejercicios de conciencia corporal, estreñimiento, alcohol, tabaco, grasa abdominal y salud del suelo pélvico. Además, Sandra explica la importancia clave del suelo pélvico en hombres y cómo puede estar relacionado con temas como el dolor pélvico crónico o la eyaculación precoz.Por último, desmontamos algunos mitos muy frecuentes: si el parto vaginal es la única causa de problemas de suelo pélvico, si tener muchas relaciones sexuales lo estropea, si los tampones o juguetes sexuales lo debilitan, si beber poca agua ayuda a evitar escapes o si el dolor lumbar puede estar relacionado con el suelo pélvico. Ojalá el episodio os sirva para saber mas temer menos y elegir mejor, en este caso el suelo pélvico Redes sociales de Sandra Gómez: https://www.instagram.com/fisioespecialis/Para mas información ya sabéis que me tenéis en mi instagram @isabelvina dónde te comparto contenido diario Mi TikTok @isabelvinabasEn mi canal de YouTube Canal YoutubeY los suplementos formulados por mi en mi web Mi web

Hook lying looks like the simplest position in the room. Knees bent, feet flat, lying on your back. Most practitioners use it as a default starting point without thinking about what it actually demands. That is a problem.Hook lying is an early propulsive position with a strong ER bias. Getting into it correctly requires medial foot contacts, a pelvis that can superimpose IR on ER, and a thorax that can expand without compensation. If your client cannot access those, you are not starting them in a safe easy position. You are starting them in a compensation.If you have ever told someone to flatten their back to the table or put a band around their knees in hook lying, this episode explains exactly why that works against you.What we cover:What hook lying actually represents as an early propulsive positionThe four ground contacts and why all of them matter equallyWhy posterior pelvic tilt cues drive compensation rather than resolve itHow to audit the position through breathing without over-cueingArchetype-specific coaching: narrow ISA versus wide ISAHow side-lying earns hook lying and what rolling is actually teachingWhere hook lying fits in the progression toward upright loaded movementLeave a comment: have you ever cued someone to flatten their back in hook lying and watched something get worse?

In December 2006, elite endurance athlete Danelle Ballengee slipped on black ice near Moab, Utah, fell 60 feet, and shattered her pelvis while unknowingly bleeding internally. With only eight ounces of water, two energy gels, and a shower cap, she crawled a quarter mile in five hours, then endured roughly 52 hours in a freezing canyon, rationing snowmelt, doing crunches for warmth, and developing severe frostbite while unable to signal for help. Her dog Taz repeatedly ran the five miles to the trailhead and back until search and rescue followed him to her just before dark on the third day, leading to an airlift, major surgery, and a remarkable recovery. Ballengee later walked and raced again, and renamed the area Taz Canyon in her dog's honor. 00:00 Welcome to Crux 00:28 Cold Open Crisis 01:48 Meet Danelle 04:05 Trailhead Routine 05:51 Black Ice Fall 08:42 Crawling for Survival 10:41 Night One Decisions 12:48 Realizing She Needs Rescue 14:21 Missing Person Alarm 16:03 Second Night Breaking Point 17:57 Search Team Mobilizes 19:57 Taz Leads Them In 22:38 Rescue and Airlift 24:18 Why Taz Left 26:29 Surgery and Recovery 28:56 Aftermath and Reflection 31:15 Closing and Call to Action Listen AD FREE: Support our podcast at patreaon: http://patreon.com/TheCruxTrueSurvivalPodcast Email us! thecruxsurvival@gmail.com Instagram https://www.instagram.com/thecruxpodcast/ Get schooled by Julie in outdoor wilderness medicine! https://www.headwatersfieldmedicine.com/ References – Crux Podcast: Danelle Ballengee Episode ESPN – "Dog Comes to Racer's Rescue" (December 2006) Primary news report from just after the rescue, including quotes from Marshall and details on her athletic record. https://www.espn.com/outdoors/general/news/story?id=2704879 Summit Daily – "Miracle in Moab: The Stunning Rescue of Danelle Ballengee" (December 2006) Detailed account of the search and rescue operation, Dorothy Rossignol, and John Marshall's quotes. https://www.summitdaily.com/news/miracle-in-moab-the-stunning-rescue-of-danelle-ballengee/ Snowshoe Magazine – "Screams of Pain: The Danelle Ballengee Story" First-person account written by Ballengee herself.

In this episode of The Health Fix Podcast, I'm chatting with my friend Dr. Brianne Grogan a doctor of pelvic floor physical therapy and a wizard when it comes to bodywork. Dr. Bri is well known for her Youtube channel Vibrant Pelvic Health and is now offering a deeper experience to work with her 1:1 at her "Healing House" in Central Oregon. Dr. Bri and I met when I reached out to her about my love for her hip circles video some years ago and we've been friends ever since. Since she knew I was dealing with some low back and hip pain she invited me to try out her experience. She fed me well, challenged me to move in new ways, chilled me out with her sound lounge, helped me clear some really old emotional pain and in those three glorious days I left as a completely different person. In this episode we're going deep into my experience, laugh a lot and talk all about how Dr. Bri has created the most wholistic program for women with pelvic floor conditions I've ever seen. If you or someone you know is struggling with pelvic floor pain, prolapse, chronic digestive issues, low back pain, sciatica, un-satisfying sex or you're looking for an exclusive private healing experience this podcast is for you. What You'll Learn In This Episode: Why 1:1 personal retreats are amazing for transformational healing What can happen when you allow your body to release tension on it's time schedule vs in the constraints of a 60 minute visit The power of having someone trained to support you through a very deep and personal emotional release What to expect when you work with Dr. Bri in person Resources From The Show: Head to Toe Pelvic Care with Dr. Brianne Grogan's: The Experience - tell her Dr. Jannine Krause sent you!

Today's episode, Trauma Fundamentals: Chest, Pelvis & Spine, brings together a curated compilation of three core areas of major trauma that every pre-hospital clinician must be confident in managing.In this episode, we revisit thoracic trauma with Dr Geoff Healy, exploring the life-threatening pathologies that demand early recognition and decisive intervention. We then move into pelvic trauma with Dr Ash Vasireddy, unpacking the nuances of pelvic assessment, the significance of the mechanism of injury, and the importance of early stabilisation. Finally, we round things off with spinal trauma alongside CCP Jim Walmsley, discussing decision-making, immobilisation, and the evolving evidence base guiding contemporary practice.These are conversations packed with practical insights, clinical nuance, and real pearls of wisdom from our guests. Whether you're early in your career or an experienced clinician, there is huge value in revisiting these fundamentals and reflecting on how they shape your approach to trauma care on scene.As always, the aim is not to be prescriptive but to support your thinking, challenge assumptions, and broaden your perspective on managing seriously injured patients in the pre-hospital environment.Do remember to work within your local policies, guidelines, and scope of practice at all times. But we hope that the discussions in this episode help inform your decision-making and ultimately support you in delivering high-quality, patient-centred trauma care when it matters most.This episode is sponsored by PAX: The gold standard in emergency response bags.When you're working under pressure, your kit needs to be dependable, tough, and intuitive.

The mother wound is not just about your mother. It is about the first nervous system that shaped yours—the earliest relational field that told you whether you were safe, wanted, and free to take up space. And it lives in the body long before it lives in the story. In this episode, Jennifer Wallace and Elisabeth Kristof are joined by Brooke Wolfe, somatic voice activation coach, musician of 20 years, and a dear friend of both hosts. Brooke's work lives at the intersection of nervous system safety, vocal expression, and the parts of the feminine that have been suppressed, exiled, and told they are too much. Together, they explore the mother wound as an attachment and nervous system imprint—one that shows up not just in relationships, but in how you breathe, how you move, whether you feel permission to make noise, and whether you have ever truly learned to receive. Brooke brings a perspective that is both poetic and grounded. She shares the pelvis–throat connection as a place where early disconnection shows up physically, how the voice becomes a tool for masking rather than connecting, and how her lifelong asthma reflected a nervous system that never felt safe to exhale. She also speaks to how heroin use in her teenage years neurologically mirrored the flooding and crashing of disorganized attachment. Elisabeth shares how emotional neglect and a mother's absence shaped a deep sense of childhood loneliness, and why co-regulation with other humans became genuinely difficult. Jennifer names the fear of her own power, the experience of moving through life in a quiet tiptoe, and the inner critic that still carries someone else's voice. This conversation expands the mother wound beyond the personal and into the collective—naming how disconnection from the body, voice, and feminine expression is not just individual, but patterned across generations. The episode closes on something both honest and hopeful: healing the mother wound does not always require repairing the external relationship. It requires taking your sovereignty back, learning to mother yourself, and finding the safe spaces and relationships that can hold your depth. What was ruptured in relationship must be repaired in relationship—and sometimes that begins with the earth. In This Episode, You Will Learn: How the mother wound forms as an attachment and nervous system imprint, not a single event but a pattern How prenatal maternal stress can shape fetal stress system development through cortisol and epigenetic mechanisms Why birth is the first moment of separation and how birth trauma shapes early nervous system patterns How rupture in the feminine shows up in the body, the breath, the pelvis, the throat, and the voice Why the voice so often becomes a tool for masking rather than connecting, and how somatic voice work can change that How disorganized attachment patterns in childhood can drive substance use and self-regulation strategies in adolescence and adulthood Why co-regulation with other humans can feel deeply threatening and how to begin building that skill incrementally How the inner critic often carries the voice of a primary caregiver, and what that means neurologically What it looks like to heal the mother wound internally without requiring external repair of the relationship Why the fertile void, the emptiness left by the wound, can become a creative source rather than something to fill Chapter Markers 0:00 - Sending Healing Back Down the Mother Line 1:45 - Welcome: The Mother Wound as Nervous System Imprint 4:00 - Introducing Brooke Wolfe and Why This Work Called Her 7:45 - How Rupture in the Feminine Shows Up in the Body and Voice 13:00 - Birth as the First Separation and the Roots of the Wound 18:00 - Prenatal Stress, Cortisol, and How the Stress System Is Shaped Before Birth 20:00 - The Pelvis, Throat, and Diaphragm: Where Bracing Patterns Live 27:00 - Don't Take Up Space, Don't Be Too Much: The Feminine Conditioning 33:00 - Attachment, Addiction, and the Nervous System Logic Behind It All 49:00 - The Void: What Brooke's Mother Wound Actually Is, and What She Found There 55:00 - The Inner Critic as Internalized Mother Voice 1:01:00 - Healing the Mother Wound From the Inside Out Explore Neurosomatic Voice Activation: Liberate your voice and create somatic safety and self-attunement in the Neurosomatic Voice Activation Course with Brooke and Elisabeth: https://www.brookewolfe.com/trauma-rewired Get 15% off with code: TRAUMAREWIRED Brooke on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/brookewolfe_/ Ways to Engage with Neurosomatics: Capacity Gap: Free BrainBased workshop for entrepreneurs, leaders and high-performers: rewirecapacity.com Two week trail of BrainBased membership for neurosomatic practices and nervous system rehabilitation and health: rewiretrial.com Introduction to NSI for practitioners, coaches and therapists - The NSI foundations Bundle: https://neurosomaticintelligence.com/workshops/ Watch Trauma Rewired on YouTube - Subscribe here Learn more about psychedelic neuroscience and neurosomatics on Sacred Synapse with Jennifer Wallace https://www.youtube.com/@sacredsynapse-23 Wayfinder Journal: Track nervous system patterns and support preparation and integration through Neurosomatic Intelligence.

James Leitz...Golf Digest Top 100 Instructor, Top 100 Club Fitter, and one of the game's earliest adopters of 3D motion capture and force plate technology, joins Mike Granato and Shaun Webb on the Athletic Motion Podcast to break down the framework he calls the "3 Grapes."In this episode, James walks through how the upper torso, pelvis, and center of mass move in the golf swing, why staying still is actually hurting your speed, and what separates a 99 mph Rory McIlroy from a long drive competitor. He also shares the story of how a single phrase from an aeronautical engineer in 1982 — "never guess what you can measure" — shaped an entire career.Topics covered:→ What the 3 Grapes are and how to trace them in GEARS→ Why deceleration in the downswing isn't always bad (and who got it wrong)→ The boat analogy, the jack knife, and how ground force really works→ How James used Kelly Gibson to map club delivery across 9 shot shapes→ Why throwers and laggers need completely different grape positions→ The mental/physical link — what happens to your swing when you get nervous→ D-Plane origins, TrackMan history, and measuring since 1982
"Before the body remembers, the mind only theorizes. But when the body speaks—through eyes that won't meet, jaws that won't release, breath that won't descend—that's where bioenergetics begins."Dr. Brian Tierney connects with Diana Guest—certified bioenergetic therapist, international trainer, and living bridge to the roots of somatic psychotherapy—for a masterclass on Bioenergetic Analysis.Together they trace the lineage from Wilhelm Reich to Alexander Lowen to the present moment, exploring how character structure lives in the body's seven segments:
Have you been diagnosed with chronic prostatitis, but rounds of antibiotics like Cipro or Levoquin haven't touched the pain? You aren't alone. Statistics show that up to 95% of prostatitis cases are non-bacterial, meaning the root cause isn't an infection it's pelvic floor dysfunction.In this episode, Dr. Geo sits down with Dr. Adam Gvili, a leading male pelvic floor specialist and founder of Pelvis NYC. Dr. Gvili shares his personal six-year journey through pelvic pain and explains why the traditional medical model often fails men suffering from pelvic tension, urinary frequency, and sexual symptoms.Whether you are dealing with "Hard Flaccid," "Headache in the Pelvis," or chronic discomfort, this conversation provides a roadmap for what real healing looks like through nervous system retraining and specialized physical therapy.In This Episode, You'll Discover:The Prostatitis Myth: Why the diagnosis is often a "label of exclusion" when doctors can't find anything else.The 95% Rule: Why most pelvic pain is musculoskeletal, not bacterial.The Danger of "Floxing": Why you should be cautious of fluoroquinolone antibiotics (Cipro/Levoquin).Hypertonicity Explained: How "tight asses" and chronic guarding lead to urinary and sexual dysfunction.The Hard Flaccid Phenomenon: What is happening to the fascia and blood flow of the penis under chronic stress.Beyond Kegels: Why strengthening isn't always the answer—and why learning to relax the pelvic floor is the key to recovery.Episode Timestamps:00:00 Is Prostatitis even a real diagnosis?02:45 Dr. Gvili's 6year personal battle with pelvic dysfunction.06:30 Why 95-98% of cases show an absence of bacteria.08:10 The danger of missing a true bacterial infection.10:45 How "Prostatitis" labels mislead men over 50.13:00 Case Study: When a "prostate" issue was actually a urinary stricture.20:30 The Black Box warning: Cipro, Levoquin, and tendon health.26:45 What a "Hypertonic" pelvic floor actually feels like.29:00 The difference between a Urologist's DRE and a Pelvic PT exam.38:30 Can you really isolate pelvic muscles?43:00 Calming the nervous system: How to unlearn the pain response.50:15 "Hard Flaccid" and the role of Buck's Fascia in erections.52:00 Where to find Dr. Gvili and Pelvis NYC.

Send us a textThe ache that won't sit still, the quad-dominant stride, the back that tightens after miles on trail—none of it is random. We invited Dr. Sean Rimmer, PT, DPT of Run Potential PT, to unpack how the pelvis truly drives running: three-plane motion, rotational loading, and the elastic recoil that makes a stride feel effortless. When the pelvis stops moving, hips overwork, nerves get irritated, and the system loses its spring. Sean explains how to spot the difference between hip, pelvis, and nerve-driven pain, and why a shifting, vague ache is often a neural clue rather than a muscle tear.We go deep on practical solutions you can apply today. Sean demos walking pelvic rotations and reverse steps to restore glide and rotation, and shows how a simple flow rope builds rhythm, timing, and side-to-side weight shift that mirrors efficient running mechanics. He also shares quick self-screens—pelvic side glides and marching with hands on the pelvis—to reveal blocked planes of motion. If you've been told “anterior pelvic tilt” is your problem, you'll learn why hip flexor rotation is the missing piece and how better sequencing beats endless stretching.Strength that actually transfers to performance is the final lever. Sean outlines heavy split-stance isometrics to load the glute–ham complex the way running demands—fast stabilization with tendon recoil—without crushing soreness during hard training blocks. Expect clearer cues, less quad overload, and a snappier, more resilient stride within weeks. Whether you're dealing with nerve flare-ups, stubborn hip tightness, or you just want more power and durability, this conversation gives you a blueprint: restore pelvic motion, retrain rhythm, and load what matters.If this helped, subscribe, share it with a running friend, and leave a quick review on your favorite app. Tell us which drill changed your stride first, and what body area you want us to tackle next.Follow Sean on IG - @runpotentialptContact Sean for PT - @runpotentialptCheck out Run Potential PT online - @runpotentialptFollow James on IG - @jameslauriello Follow the Steep Stuff Podcast on IG - @steepstuff_pod Use code steepstuffpod for 25% off your cart at UltimateDirection.com!

Today's guest is Dr. Jarod Burton. Jarod is a chiropractor and sports performance coach focused on neurology-driven movement. He blends manual therapy, strength modailities, and nervous system training to unlock better mechanics and athletic output. His work centers on identifying and clearing the neural limits that hold athletes back. In training, there are many layers to human performance and athletic outputs. One critical layer is the power transmission of the nervous system, and how to unlock this ability in all athletes. Many athletes naturally have a more adept system, while others may need more bridges to reach their highest levels of performance. In this episode, Jarod speaks on how his approach has evolved since entering clinical practice. He shares how he uses flywheel training to teach rhythm, “the dance” of force, and powerful catches rather than just concentric effort. He and Joel dig into spinal mobility, ribcage expansion, and even breakdance-style spinal waves as underrated keys to athletic freedom. Jarod then simplifies neurology for coaches, explaining how posture reveals brain-side imbalances and how targeted “fast stretch” work, loud/sticky altitude drops, and intelligently high training volumes can rebalance the system and unlock performance.

He notes that he used to overcoach mechanics and learned that athletes need experiences, not micromanagement. Emphasize principles over preferences. As Jarod says, “If I can teach the principles, the application can change.” 6:55 – Internal versus external focus and simple cues that work Jarod prefers cues that help athletes feel positions instead of thinking about them. He explains that internal cues can work when used to create awareness, but they cannot dominate the session. Use cues that point the athlete toward an outcome. For example, he prefers “push the ground away” instead of detailed joint instructions. 13:40 – What good movement feels like and the problem with forcing technique Jarod warns that coaches often chase “pretty” movement at the cost of effective movement. Technique should emerge from intention, not the other way around. He encourages coaches to give athletes tasks that naturally produce the shapes they want. If an athlete is struggling, simplify the environment rather than stack more verbal instructions. 20:10 – Speed development, posture, and improving shapes without overcoaching Jarod explains that acceleration improves when athletes learn to project rather than lift. Upright running quality comes from rhythm and relaxation, not from forcing tall mechanics. He recommends using contrast tasks to improve posture, such as wall drills combined with short accelerations. Let the environment teach the athlete and save verbal coaching for key errors only. 29:18 – Blending strength training with elastic qualities Jarod sees weight room work as support, not the driver, of speed and skill. He focuses on the elastic properties of tendons and connective tissue for speed athletes. He notes that heavy lifting can coexist with stiffness and elasticity if programmed strategically rather than constantly chased. Use low amplitude hops, bounds, and rhythm-based plyos to balance the traditional strength program. 41:02 – Breathing, ribcage mechanics, and natural movement options Jarod uses breathing work to help athletes find positions that allow better rotation and force transfer. He explains that tight ribcages limit athletic expression, not just breathing capacity. Many athletes struggle with rotation due to rigid breathing patterns, not lack of strength. Use breathing resets before high-speed work to create better movement “access.” 52:37 – Understanding the athletic pelvis and creating better positions Jarod emphasizes that pelvic orientation shapes nearly every aspect of movement. He encourages developing a pelvis that can both yield and create force, instead of being locked in extension or tucked under. Simple low-level movements like hip shifts, step-ups, and gait-primer patterns can transform sprint positions. Train the pelvis in motion, not just through isolated exercises. 1:00:15 – Skill acquisition, variability, and choosing training that sticks Jarod believes athletes need movement options and adaptability, not one perfect model. Variability builds resilience and skill transfer. Too much rigidity in training creates athletes who cannot adapt to chaotic sport environments. Coaches should create tasks that allow athletes to explore rather than follow rigid repetitions. 1:11:48 – Programming principles and adjusting training to the individual Jarod adjusts cycles based on athlete readiness rather than fixed rules. He focuses on how athletes respond to stress rather than the stress itself. Training should follow the athlete's progression of competence and confidence, not arbitrary timelines. He prefers a flexible structure where principles guide but the athlete determines the pace. 1:19:40 – Coaching philosophy, communication, and what athletes need Jarod highlights that coaching is not about showing off knowledge but helping someone move better. He builds trust through communication and clarity rather than overwhelming athletes with science. He believes athletes need environments that reward curiosity and creativity. The coach creates the environment, but the athlete creates the movement. Jarod Burton Quotes “If I can teach the principle, the application can change, and the athlete can adapt.” “Good movement should feel rhythmic and natural, not forced.” “The environment will teach the athlete faster than a paragraph of cues.” “When an athlete stops trying to make the movement pretty, it usually starts to become pretty.” “The weight room supports speed. It should not compete with speed.” “Breathing gives athletes access to positions they did not know they had.” “Adaptable athletes win. Rigid athletes break.” “Coaching is about creating options for the athlete, not limiting them.” “I want athletes who can solve problems, not just follow instructions.” “Trust comes from communication, not complexity.” About Jarod Burton Dr. Jarod Burton is a chiropractor and sports performance coach who lives in the intersection of clinical practice, neuroscience, and high-performance human movement. A student of neurology and motor learning, Jarod works to uncover the hidden nervous system constraints that influence posture, coordination, elasticity, and power expression in sport. His methods combine manual therapy, joint mapping, sensory integration, and movement-based diagnostics to create individualized solutions that free up range, recalibrate neural rhythm, and unlock athletic speed, strength, and resilience. Jarod is passionate about a holistic philosophy of performance; one where the brain, body, and environment work in concert to reveal the best version of the athlete.
Bryan goes all the way back to 1997 and relives a lot of his friends and himself grappling with the fact that this dance music was hitting very hard but at the end of the day, was still dance music. John, on the other hand, only knew The Prodigy as a band with 100% bangers and a premium place on the absolutely iconic Canadian compilation album, "Big Shiny Tunes 2". It's a lot to unpack for what is ultimately one of the biggest albums we've ever covered that sold multiple millions of copies, went to #1 in an absurd number of countries, and sent two songs to the top of the UK Singles Charts. It was a moment in time, and The Prodigy captured it perfectly, and we try to capture that all here. Plus, we dive in on the 2026 Sonic Temple lineup and poster.

Send us a textThe genetic & developmental changes behind bipedalism & human anatomy.Wide release date: October 15, 2025.Episode Summary: Dr. Terence Capellini talks about the evolution of bipedalism in humans, exploring when and why it emerged, the anatomical changes required, and the genetic mechanisms behind these adaptations. They discuss how environmental shifts, like shrinking forests, drove the need for upright walking, the gradual skeletal changes in the pelvis and limbs, and how these changes may have facilitated larger brain sizes. Capellini highlights the complexity of evolutionary processes, emphasizing the role of multiple genetic changes in regulatory regions rather than single genes.About the guest: Terence Capellini, PhD is a professor and chair of the Department of Human Evolutionary Biology at Harvard University. His research focuses on developmental genetics and human evolution.Discussion Points:Bipedalism likely became common ~3.5 million years ago with Australopithecus afarensis, with earlier hominins like Ardipithecus showing mosaic traits.Environmental changes, such as shrinking forests and expanding grasslands, created selective pressures favoring bipedal locomotion.The human pelvis evolved to be shorter, wider, and curved, with muscles like the gluteus medius shifting to stabilize upright walking.Genetic changes in non-coding regulatory regions, not protein-coding genes, drive the developmental shifts in pelvic growth, with hundreds of small-effect changes involved.Bipedalism may have widened the birth canal, potentially enabling the evolution of larger brains in later hominins like Homo erectus.Humans have more slow-twitch muscle fibers than chimpanzees, supporting endurance activities like long-distance running, possibly linked to energetic trade-offs with brain growth.Shoulder and arm adaptations for throwing and tool use evolved more gradually, becoming prominent ~2 million years ago with Homo erectus.Reference paper:Study: The evolution of hominin bipedalism in two stepsRelated content:M&M 171: Comparative Brain Evolution: Mammals, Primates & Humans | Robert Barton*Not medical advice.Support the showAffiliates: Seed Oil Scout: Find restaurants with seed oil-free options, scan food products to see what they're hiding, with this easy-to-use mobile app. KetoCitra—Ketone body BHB + electrolytes formulated for kidney health.

In this episode of From Pain to Possibility, I dive into one of yoga's most debated cues: is squaring the pelvis in Warrior 1 anatomically impossible? I share why I don't see it that way, and how the real focus should be on intent, coordination, and clarity of movement. When we shift the lens away from “possible vs. impossible,” we uncover how this pose can actually reduce pain, build stability, and retrain motor control. I also talk about why the glutes aren't usually “weak,” but simply bypassed, and how refining coordination can make strength and stability a natural outcome rather than something you force.

The Ghastly Ones (1968), The Man with Two Heads (1972), and Carnage (1984) There are not many filmmakers like Andy Milligan. Sure, there were a lot of no-budget independents during Milligan's era that somehow got their finished pictures to play theaters and released on home video. But there weren't many whose real life was almost as terrifying as the films they made. But Andy Milligan would fit neatly into that category. Making over 30 pictures in almost 25 years, with some of the most outrageous and memorable titles, he still remains very close to obscurity. But he does have some fans out there. In fact, in September of 2021, Severin Films released The Dungeon of Andy Milligan, a box set that included over a dozen of his films, packed with extras. As that set has lived on fan's shelves for a while now, it seemed a good time to take a look into this strange filmmaker and three of his films. But a warning... his films are not for everyone. Some quirky critics refer to them as high school stage plays that were filmed. They can be mean. Talky. Bizarre camerawork. And pretty shoddy makeup. Nonetheless, they still have a charm to them… to some fans, at least. So take your next steps with caution, and as the saying goes, "Well... we warned you." Films mentioned in this episode: Blood (1973), Bloodthirsty Butchers (1970), The Body Beneath (1970), Carnage (1984), Depraved (1967), The Degenerates (1967), Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde (1932), Dr. Jekyll vs. The Werewolf (1972), Edge of Sanity (1989), Frankenstein (1931), The Ghastly Ones (1968), House of Seven Belles (1979), Legacy of Blood (1978), Mad Ron's Prevues from Hell (1987), The Man with Two Heads (1972), Pelvis (1977), The Promiscuous Sex (1967), The Rats Are Coming! The Werewolves Are Here! (1972), Torture Dungeon (1969)

Send us a textThe deep healing that can occur through the Expressive Arts is only beginning to be acknowledged. In this episode I speak with solo show coach Jessica Lynn Johnston. She was my acting coach and director in my last solo show, Hidden. (See heatherherington.com for review).Writing my novel Flawed was lifesaving when I felt burn out from treating sexual abuse survivors as well as treating PTSD, addiction, autoimmune and so on for so many years. It allowed me to expresss emotion through my thoughts and ideas, helping me discard stress through creativity. And I kept writing whether it was the librettos fro Avi and my musicals or radio plays, essays and finally the books, Surviving a Viral Pandemic through the lens of a naturopathic medical doctor and Transforming Trauma, a drugless and creative path to healing PTS and ACE. But for me performing solo shows has been the pinnacle. With Avi writing my tunes and singing them on stage while acting out my own sexual assault and embodying characters that supported my emotional recovery generated a healing so profound that I was actually shocked. And now years later I am creating a show about my late husband Avi Noam Gross who died from hospital error. And so with my acute grieving having subsided I am excited to bring my workshop back. Originally a retreat and called Moving the Pelvis to Healing, I am now naming it, Transforming Trauma through the Expressive Arts. And this is why Jessica was a good person to interview as she has helped thousands of people, teaching them, coaching them, aiding them in transcending major bumps in their lives.

"Failure to progress in labor. " Can we all agree this is a horrible name and can impact someone's view of their ability to give birth! For years, birthing people have been expected to follow “Freidman's Curve” a standard set by a trial of only 500 participants conducted nearly 50 years ago. Recently, ACOG has set new standards. Unfortunately many hospitals and practices have been slow to put these new standards into practice. In this episode of Yoga|Birth|Babies, I am thrilled to bring back board-certified, practicing OB/GYN and mom of 2, Dr. Nicole Calloway Rankins to discuss the parameters of “Failure to progress” and it's impact unplanned cesareans. Nicole lays out what is considered “normal labor” and why it's important not jump to declaring arrested labor before active labor starts at 6cm. She also shares factors that may be influencing longer labors and strategies care providers, nurses, and doulas have to help labor progress.

What separates a good swing from a tour-level one? It's not just club path or face angle—it's how the body moves, especially through impact. And no move is more revealing than what the pelvis does around P9 (trail arm parallel in the follow-through).In this episode, Mike and Shaun from Athletic Motion Golf talk shop from inside the Athletic Motion Golf Club, where top teachers and players share real insights, test theories, and reverse-engineer what the best in the world do. You'll hear how technology like Gears and force plates helps them see exactly where elite players are—and where most amateurs go wrong.They break down how anterior/posterior tilt, side bend, trail leg action, and upper body orientation affect what happens at impact and beyond. They also explain why mobility matters more than raw athleticism, how even great athletes can struggle without the right movement patterns, and what most instructors are missing.It's not about guessing—it's about measuring. If you've ever wondered why some swings just look tour… this episode shows you the difference.

Mother's day just passed and I thought this would be the perfect time to talk about something a lot of women deal with, especially after having kids: pelvic floor dysfunction. I invited Dr. Brianne Grogan, Physical Therapist and Pelvic Care Expert, to talk about the intricate relationship between trauma, stress, and pelvic floor health. I loved this conversation with Dr. Bri because she not only delves into practical techniques for pelvic floor release, sharing insights on effective cues for yoga teachers to enhance awareness and how to reconnect with the pelvic floor, but she also emphasizes the importance of understanding the pelvic area as a site of emotional storage and energetic power. Listen in as we explore how:
Are you curious about what pelvic floor therapy actually involves? Have you ever wondered whether issues like bladder leaks, painful sex, or postpartum discomfort are just “normal” things you have to live with? Do men experience pelvic floor dysfunction? (hint: yes, men also have pelvic floors). In this episode of Brave & Curious, Dr. Lora Shahine is joined by Dr. Alicia Jeffrey-Thomas, a licensed pelvic floor physical therapist. Together, they're taking the mystery out of pelvic health and explaining why it matters for everyone—not just postpartum women. Listeners will learn about the wide range of conditions pelvic PT can help with—from incontinence and prolapse to pain during sex and more. Dr. Jeffrey-Thomas and Dr. Shahine walk through what a pelvic PT appointment looks like, tackle myths about Kegels, discuss insurance coverage, and highlight the importance of proper toilet posture. You'll walk away with a deeper understanding of overall pelvic health and feel empowered to take charge of your well-being—because pelvic pain and dysfunction are never “just part of life.” In this episode you'll hear: [0:16] Meet Dr. Alicia Jeffrey-Thomas, PT, DPT, PRPC [1:57] Pelvic floor functions [3:58] What is pelvic floor therapy?
