In this episode of Rethinking Biomechanics, we’re back after a long break and apparently ready to stir the pot.
The big theme: stop taking movement conversations personally. If someone critiques a drill, a shape, or a training idea, that doesn’t have to be an attack. It can simply be an invitation to rethink.
We talk about why so much of the performance world gets stuck “painting by numbers”: chasing positions, copying drills, pursuing strength for the sake of strength, and trying to force athletes into shapes that may have nothing to do with how they actually move best.
Movement is not about hitting the perfect pose. It’s about understanding how the body organizes itself through rotations, levers, timing, and ease.
That led us into a bigger conversation about efficiency. Coaches often try to make things harder. But the best movers usually find a way to make things easier.
Easier works.
We also talk about femur pitch, why drills don’t always transfer, upcoming projects, Jen’s new book Spinal Intelligence, and our upcoming NSCA talk on asymmetry.
Listen in if you’re ready to stop painting by numbers and start rethinking movement.

Go Play: Escaping Fitness Categories
Season 3, Episode 2 of Let Me Introduce You dives into the boxes we put movement (and ourselves) in—performance, aesthetics, “I just like to move,” and health. We tease apart how these categories can help, how they can trap us, and why the best training plan might simply be… to play.
In this one, Jen admits she’s more “flip upside down” than “athlete,” and Adarian counters that athletics is just movement—an expression like dance. We talk access (why people do what they can reach), competition (maybe it’s just the desire to be noticed), and why gyms should feel like playgrounds instead of rule books. Also inside: the origin story of Adarian’s simple fitness app idea, and Jen’s quick tip about using the heel and pelvis to make step-ups click.
Takeaway: stop pigeonholing yourself. Walk into the gym and explore. Try the barbell. Toss the med ball. Mess up. Learn. Repeat. Movement can be free—and fun.
Hit play, share with a friend who’s stuck in a “program or bust” mindset, and tell us what category you’ve outgrown. 🎧
