In this episode with Todd Hargrove we cover the difference between complicated and complex pain. He talks us through how and why these differences matter through using a comparison of how fixing a human being is very different and much more complex to fixing a bike for multiple different reasons. Finally Todd covers what we can do when we encounter these complex and complicated issues with our own patients. Want to learn more about chronic and complex pain? Todd recently did an excellent Masterclass with us called “Pain, movement and play: common sense for complex problems” where he goes into further depth on all different types of pain.

This conversation with Kathy Sierra literally shifted my direction with my horses! It was pivotal in the best possible way and I am excited to share her work with you, as I believe it is one of the keys to changing our minds about our horses, our training, their movement, and their performance, and supporting so many horses to be happier and healthier. It has even shifted my way of thinking as an equine manual therapist, and what I am seeing, how I am working, and how I can support the horses I work with in better ways. I really encourage you to listen to our chat, and if it impacts you as well, please share with your horse communities. Thank you for supporting horses to be happier in their bodies and minds - it is all about the ripples!  Kathy Sierra is the creator of Intrinzen, a movement-science approach to helping horses rediscover a love of movement expression. She has a BSc in Kinesiology, and spent the first half of her career as a *human* movement professional before switching to computer science. She also taught design for motivating experiences at UCLA, Virgin, and Universal Studios. A horse owner for more than 40 years, she combined her background in both movement science and motivation to help save one of her own horses. Eventually she began sharing the Intrinzen science principles and philosophy with others.

In 2008 Todd started one of the most reputable Blogs in Movement and in 2014 took that to a new level by writing 'A Guide to Better Movement - The science and practice of moving with more skill and less pain' which provides people with an understanding of the mechanics of movement, helping them move better and feel better. Renowned for his clear and practical approach to complex mind-body systems and close look at the science of movement and pain. His wealth of knowledge is delivered brilliantly as he makes complex ideas easy to understand. We discuss Functional Movement and connect to primal ways of living, Intrinsic Motivation and the rewards that stem from Play and a branch of topics conducive to feeling better in this body.

a discussion of more efficient, healthy, and pleasant movement. avoiding injury, increasing performance and moving practically through life.

Todd is a former attorney turned manual therapist who scratched his own itch. After years of experiencing pain, he set out to understand what causes it, how to move better, and effective strategies for reducing pain and improving your athletic performances. He has written two books, A Guide to Better Movement and Playing with Movement, which are interdisciplinary ways of looking at the problems of injury and pain. He brings in a broad diversity of disciplines like stress physiology to complex systems theory and then explains how that all relates back to athletes. This conversation was wide-ranging and touches on subjects like static stretching, mobility, dynamic flexibility, how much of pain is mental, and strategies for having more fun in your training. Todd also gives us some tangible advice on: Doing warm-ups as a sport specific activity Ways to develop intrinsic motivation for running How to approach a "balanced movement diet" And where to start when looking to improve in your sport I was also excited to hear that Todd is training for his first 5K. Tune in to hear about how the training is going for him! Show Links & Resources: Learn more about Todd at his website Connect with Todd on Twitter Todd's book: Playing With Movement: How to Explore the Many Dimensions of Physical Health and Performance Strength series: High Performance Lifting Thank You SureFeet! I’m excited to announce our newest sponsor SureFeet. They make a colorless, odorless shoe spray that stops your running shoes from getting so smelly. They make their Odor Eliminating Shoe Spray in the USA and each bottle can treat about 10 pairs of shoes. SureFeet sent me a sample and I used it on my worst smelling shoes and guess what? It worked great! This pair smelled from across the room but after a quick application of the spray, I’d say the smell was reduced by 95%. After wearing them a few more times, the smell was probably 80% less than how it smelled before I used SureFeet. It works and my wife is very thankful for that. Just one quick suggestion: don’t put it on too thick because it won’t dry completely clear. My next project is using it on a pair of new running shoes because it’s best as a preventative tool, rather than on already smelly shoes. It doesn’t wash off, wear away, or contain any nasty chemicals. Be sure to check out SureFeet and get a twin-pack of their spray.

Runchatlive Ep42: Todd Hargrove ' Playing With Movement'"Kids, animals, and most successful athletes develop skill and fitness through play, not working out. The best pathway to movement health is found not by tracking huge amounts of data or following algorithms, but through curious exploration of the physical world."In 2014 , Todd Hargrove's book 'A Guide To Better Movement' rapidly became an absolute 'must have' for anyone who works with people in pain, explaining in a way that only Todd can concepts from modern pain science including the neuroscience of motor control, cortical body maps, complex systems, developmental movement patterns, and more.In this episode of RunChatLive, we talk to Todd about his recent book 'Playing With Movement' in which he discusses how the mainstream approach to sport training and physical therapy has become 'all work no play', too often focussing on movements that are boring, repetitive, planned, stressful, and intrinsically meaningless.We hope you enjoy it!-------------------This episode of Runchatlive was recorded LIVE as always at www.Facebook.com/MattPhillipsRCL and then uploaded to YouTube and all popular podcast apps.

In this episode, I sat down with one of my movement teachers and mentors, Todd Hargrove. Todd is a genius when it comes to understanding how the body works, the science of pain, and how to move with more freedom.He's the author of one of my absolute favorite books as well, A Guide to Better Movement, which I highly recommend.What you're about to learn:Why having a neurocentric perspective is critical to understanding why pain and tension hang around.How pain sensitivity is learned from an early age and what you can do to change it.How the core beliefs you hold about the world can be subconsciously influencing your experience in your body, for good or bad.The power of body maps and reversing something called "sensorimotor amnesia" that might be holding you back.Why play and exploration are so critical to relieving stress, building healthy habits, and creating new movement patterns.How to tap into your deepest source of motivation, so you're actually able to stay consistent with the practices you commit to.If you enjoyed this episode, please leave a rating and review and share it on social media.Thank you!

RETURN TO THE SOURCE AUTUMN RETREAT! Oct 3-6th https://www.evolvemoveplay.com/ev_event/autumn-retreat-2019/ TODAY'S EPISODE Motivation seems to be a big problem. The cost of being a member at your average gym is about $60 a month yet every year about 5.1 million Americans end up wasting a total of around $1.8 billion in unused gym memberships.  It’s a strange statistic if you think about it. We all know that movement is vital in maintaining a healthy body and brain. We know that positive lifestyle improvements are good for mitigating stress and anxiety, increasing brain function, reducing the risk of diseases, and can make us less susceptible to injuries.  Meanwhile, we are bombarded by marketing that idolizes those who are fit and healthy. Our movies, our television shows, the people we follow on social media... all make it clear that having a strong, fit-looking body brings great social reward and probably loads of self respect and confidence. To add to it, we even have state of the art facilities staffed with professional exercisers ready to measure us, build dietary plans and workout routines, taking all the thinking and studying out of the equation for us. With all of this help, being our most heroic and sexy selves should be pretty easy. Yet… we still don’t go to the gym. As it turns out, the human mind and body is an incomprehensibly complex thing. There’s a lot more going on than what can be adequately addressed through the reductionist method. Movement is much more than just an obligatory chore to meet society's expectations or to punish oneself for past poor decisions. Movement, in its truest sense, is a means of expression and connection that can actively imbue our lives with meaning and profound experiences. The motivations and methods described above generally ignore this fact, opting instead to create an environment that, shuns playing, stifles creative problem solving, poo poos self expression, and asserts that no pain equals no gain. While this is enough to get people to shell out money for a membership, it seems to be insufficient in keeping people engaged and motivated for very long. In today’s episode of the Evolve Move Play Podcast, our good friend Todd Hargrove is back to talk about his new book “Playing with Movement: How to Explore the Many Dimensions of Physical Health and Performance”. It turns out that if we really want to get the most out of our movement and become the best versions of ourselves, we would do well to step away from our habit of viewing the body as a machine, perceiving play as pointless, and seeing movement solely as a form of work.  When we begin playing more, we tap into inherent motivations and are far more likely to engage in the activities that nurture us. So buckle up and join us on this conversation. Along the way we’ll also talk with Todd about intention and attention, dynamic systems, and what differentiates work from play. So take a look and let us know what you think!

Todd Hargrove, author of A Guide to Better Movement, discusses moving slow vs moving fast and using play in your movement routine

Dr. Perry talks with Todd Hargrove about his book ‘A Guide to Better Movement’ and the role movement plays in pain. In this episode we talk about: The brain and how it relates to pain and movement Todd’s fascinating story

Todd Hargrove, author of A Guide to Better Movement, talks about about pain science, what good movement is, why it’s important to have it, some myths about pain, why perfect biomechanics doesn’t guarantee pain-free movement, the benefits of mindful movement, and movement variability.

Todd Hargrove is talking about what happy movers have in common, how learning better movement is more like sculpture than painting, the feather-ruffling information that posture does not predict pain levels- and how posture still matters and why. We also dig into motor control, cortical maps, the neuromatrix model, and all kinds of wild things about how perceptual tricks affect our brain and our perception of our body which gets us asking, “What is pain really?”. Of course we also discuss what our nervous system wants from us in order to keep it from creating pain and dysfunction in the first place so that we can all be happier in our bodies.
