Summary
Ready to break out of the status-quo training methodologies that are so commonly seen in the fitness industry? Dr. Pat Davidson breaks down the journey from unconscious incompetency to automatic competency in this interview that takes a functionally integrated systems approach to training.
Dr. Davidson's in-depth perspectives are a breath of fresh air for any coach, trainer, or athlete looking to truly optimize movement and correct body alignment. Not only does Dr. Davidson break down transformation in the physical realm, but he also details some common denominators between spirituality and science. Tune in (and take notes!) as Dr. Davidson and Ben break down:
- The powerful decision of who you choose to be in each moment.
- How to begin noticing your dominant response, and whether it serves you.
- A neurological approach to recovery and bodily realignment.
- Why joint pain and range-of-motion restriction is NOT normal. (And what to do about it!)
- Where coaches can implement a troubleshooting checklist to assess structural alignment.
Pat Davidson, PhD is a strength and conditioning coach and the author of "A Coach's Guide to Optimizing Movement." Dr. Davidson also developed a certification program for coaches called "Rethinking the Big Patterns." You can learn more about Dr. Davidson at:

| 0:00.0 | All right, ladies and jents, we are back with another amazing episode of the Muscle |
| 0:11.9 | Intelligence Podcast. |
| 0:12.9 | This one's going to blow your mind. |
| 0:14.8 | I suggest you get a paper and pen and get ready to literally have your mind blown wide open. |
| 0:20.6 | So much information is passed on. |
| 0:22.0 | I will be honest, this is a very high level conversation. |
| 0:25.2 | If you're someone who is not up to speed with some of the terminology of anatomy, |
| 0:29.4 | of physiology of biomechanics, there's going to be some moments where you're going to want to |
| 0:32.7 | pause and you want to look it up. |
| 0:34.5 | My suggestion is for you to listen all the way through this time. |
| 0:38.9 | And then if you're very curious about this information, you love it, go watch on YouTube because Pat |

| 0:49.7 | demonstrate some of the things he's talking about. So we start off with a bit of a spiritual |
| 0:52.9 | conversation talking about the spiritual nature of life and how each of us happens to be on a parallel spiritual journey. |
| 1:00.1 | We then get into talking about how that ties directly into the body. Why training your body |
| 1:05.3 | ultimately is the access point to unlocking your mind, unlocking happiness, peace, |
| 1:09.9 | and spirituality in your mind through the body |
| 1:12.4 | as the gateway point. Then Pat gets into talking about some really interesting things around how he |
| 1:17.5 | organizes the body in his mind and ultimately how we can learn to change it, how we can learn to change |
| 1:22.2 | the structure. You guys have heard me talk about this before. Structural alignment has to |
| 1:27.1 | precede everything. |
| 1:28.5 | So if you're not structurally aligned, going on trying to work hard is ultimately futile. |
