Hello there. This week I have the pleasure of hosting Quinn Henneck. Quinn is a

doctor of physical therapy. He's the head of sports rehabilitation for

juggernaut training systems and the man behind clinicalathlete.com. He is

about as no bullshit as you can get and I've wanted to have him on the podcast

for so long. As far as I can see mobility is this like Charlotte and Rich, a

wash world where no one really knows what's going on and there's so much

disinformation that it feels like the Trump presidential campaign all over

again which isn't good right? People need mobility. They want to be mobile

within particular ranges of motion. They want to be able to do an overhead

score and a normal score and complete a variety of tasks that require their

bodies to be mobile but doesn't appear to be any consensus or appropriate

information. Quinn does a series on YouTube called Mobility Myths and as soon as

I saw that I knew that I had to have a conversation with him and it went

better than I could have hoped. I've just about managed to pick my jaw up off

the floor after finishing with him and we go through what the science says

about typical approaches to achieving mobility. We look at the word mobility,

flexibility, stability, what do all of these words mean in a performance context?

What are the typical approaches and their efficacy, their usefulness within

training from static stretching to dynamic stretching to soft tissue work? What

do they actually do if anything? I think there's some very surprising takeaways.

Even if you're not a highly functioning or even moderately functioning athlete,

even if you're a couch potato, this information is so important to understand
