Athletes are producing more force than they can manage. This article explains how fascia governs energy distribution, injury risk, and resilience in high-velocity sport.

The myofascial lines represent the predominant kinetic pathways for which force is transmitted throughout the body. In this article, I cover this requisite anatomy, along with some key principles for adjusting training parameters to better reflect this anatomical view.

Fascia is a global connective tissue that has a wide spectrum of functional roles and responsibilities in the body. Although we've known about fascia for centuries, its practical and functional significance has gone largely overlooked. In this article, I cover the essential aspects of fascial anatomy and discuss how we can adjust training to support an improved fascial function.

The fascial system is complex. Making matters worse, is how relatively new fascia science is which has allowed for some ambiguity on how these things are defined and evaluated to persist, even amongst experts. Across the (several) governing/international bodies and world leading researchers there is a significant amount of disconnect and incongruencies ranging from how fascia is defined to what level of influence this system has. To put it lightly, our collective understanding of the fascial sys

Unequivocally, frontal plane deficiency is one of the most common deficiencies I see with my athletes. For those who are familiar with the broad parameters of military-style training this should come as anything but a surprise, as their training is almost exclusively sagittal plane dominant and wildly redundant. Moreover, the volume and intensities that these individuals are exposed to in training is tremendously high. This combination of unscrupulous training volume/intensities and restrictive

Within the last decade or so there has been a sharp rise in the interest and discussion about fascia. While it’s been limited in the past, there’s also been more formal research (1,2,3,4) being published about our fascial system, and possibly with a different lens than in past decades. Remarkably, fascia had conventionally been viewed by doctors, researchers and even anatomists as this non-essential filler tissue that didn’t have much significance to movement and function. In other words, fascia
