0:00 This Q&A is with Matt who had a question regarding the influence of axial skeleton configuration on strategies we may use to improve movement. Gravity will affect clients differently based on the their physical structure. Matt already has a very solid understanding, but this video provides recommendations for how you might sequence activities that may include reverse band exercises for best outcomes.

4:32 This Q&A is with Anat who had a question as to how we move the center of gravity with a Narrow ISA individual. She is kind enough to let me walk her through a demonstration of how to use a leading resistance to produce the desired change in her center of gravity. Sometimes one exercise is all you need.

13:30 This Q&A is with Alex who had a question framed around walking that led to discussing how we resolved getting from early propulsion through middle propulsion pushing downward into the ground and then to late propulsion. We ultimately have to push straight down in middle P.

21:58 This Q&A is with Manuel who started with a question about weight releasers. We often talk about bands and chains in prescriptive loading to influence internal dynamics, so this question is a nice adjunct to that concept. Not only do we have appendicular influences, but the pelvic outlet behavior must also be considered. There are also secondary consequences to consider.
