Summary

Have you ever wondered what methods you can use to feel and move better? In this episode of Align Podcast, Jose and I talk about why and how he developed GOATA, the mathematics behind it, and how it helps people train to get out of pain. We learn how traditional methods differ from the rules of ancient geometry and how slow-motion videos can analyze your movement patterns and assess what you need to improve to keep your body healthy. He then explains what it means to ‘recode’ your body, the difference between GOATA and WOATA and how can you achieve the perfect body pattern. Jose Boesch a.k.a ‘Coach Gil’ is the founder of GOATA and a sports performance coach at their training facility, GLS Training. GOATA stands for ‘Greatest Of All Times Athletes’ and is a movement pattern which preserves joints, keeps the spine safe, and makes you bulletproof from the muscle pull and repetitive stress injuries. It has gotten a lot of attention from athletes around the world for helping thousands of people get rid of their pain or prevent injuries that traditional training methods are unable to do. ‘Coach Gil’ is an Entrepreneur, father, husband and Author of ‘How To to Un-Wreck or Never Wreck Your Body: Using The Mathematics Of Goata And The Ancient Exercise. After having three levels of his lumbar spine destroyed before he was 27 years, he started using slow-motion video science to advise the redevelopment of all Modern-day training, which includes fitness, Olympic lifting, powerlifting, yoga, pilates, and more. Jose walked away from the status quo fitness, performance, and bio-medical models of our time and their failed sciences to secure joints for life.  Thank you to our sponsors: BiOptimizers: Use code ALIGN10 during checkout to save 10% on Magnesium Breakthrough: magbreakthrough.com/alignpodcast Ice Barrel: Use code ALIGN during checkout to get $125 off at: http://icebarrel.com/ALIGN PaleoValley: Use code ALIGN during checkout for 15% off at: paleovalley.com/align Learn more about your ad choices.

the world's leading experts in all things health and wellness to help you optimize your mind,

body, and movement. This conversation comes from popular demand. Folks asking me to investigate

what is going on with the fellows over at Gota. Gota stands for greatest of all time

actions. So I reached out to Coach Gill over there on the gram and they flew out to visit in

0:31.3

Austin, Texas, and we filmed a YouTube video as well, breaking down the fundamentals of the Gota

0:37.2

movement patterning.

0:38.6

And this conversation is really fun.

0:41.1

If I had recorded this conversation now, I think it would have been even better because

0:46.6

I had more time to steep myself in the perspectives of the Gota folks.

0:53.5

I was a little bit playing like a lot of devil's

0:57.2

advocate throughout the conversation because the tendency within a name like greatest of all

time actions. And then they also have Woda, which is the worst of all time actions.

1:07.6

The tendency to have a bit of dogmatism and absolutism is inevitable within that.

1:14.1

And so my perspective that I was sharing throughout the conversation and also the YouTube

1:18.2

video that I highly recommend you guys check out is just challenging the idea that there is

1:23.2

such a thing as always and there is such a thing as greatest and there is such a thing as worst and

1:29.1

I think that the human organism is a highly variable system and if you're to watch athletes across

1:35.9

the board they're going to body's going to go through a lot of different ranges of motion

1:39.6

that being said I think that go to does provide a very meaningful foundation to correct the structure
