 First question is from AlyssaFolk's PT. Why is there such a discrepancy between trainers on the proper form and mechanics of exercises? Is there a lot of discrepancy on form? Well, okay. I think there's debates on certain exercises, I would say. Yeah, well, okay, so I'll use myself as an example. If you watch me train, let's say you work out at a gym that I'm training clients, and you see me train five different people, you might see five different variations of form of the same exercise. Well, especially like the squat. Mainly because people move differently, and I modify them and change them. So that might be one of the reasons why. The other thing I can think of is, you know, like any profession, some trainers are really good, and some trainers just, they just know how to make you sweat. And so they don't really pay attention to form. For them, it's all about getting the client sore, getting them to sweat and burn calories. And to them, the exercises are just the means to that end. So, you know, most of my career, I train trainers, right? So this was very common for me, is exactly what you just said, Sal, is some of them are just terrible at getting clients to do the exercise correctly, and what they'll do is they'll teach it, they'll show it. Like, here is how you do shoulder press. And they give up after. And then after that, it's just they let them do it. And it doesn't matter that... And part of that is laziness. Part of that is just being naive, not knowing how to communicate and cue the client, right? Like, so there's definitely an experience piece that comes here. Like, even myself, like if someone did like a really bad overhead press, it took me years of understanding why they had a bad, like the lack of shoulder mobility, the inability to control their core stability and tuck their tailbone. I didn't know that stuff as a trainer the first few years of my life, so I wouldn't know how to cue it really well. Because you first have to understand what bad form looks like. Then two, you got to know what good form looks like. And then three, you have to be able to cue it for someone to get there. It takes a pretty good trainer to be able to do that. Yeah, I wish you provided some examples of, like, exercises that they saw, like the discrepancies, because there's also other camps that, like, teach different techniques. For example, like a kettlebell swing. True. You know, there's like a couple of different camps. There's different styles of it. And there's also, you know, where people like will swing and go all the way up over their head, like the CrossFit style. So, you know, you'll see that like a whole host of different people, like doing the same exercise in a completely different way. Well, okay, I forget who said this or like, I'm going to probably butcher it. But, I mean, any movement that's done with, you know, control and good technique can be an exercise. It's valid. Yeah. If it's done, if it's performed safely. The person can do it probably. Yeah, if you can perform it safely and controlled, I mean, any movement can be considered an exercise. Well, and to that point, too, I think that, like with the certifications, we've been limited with our ranges of motion. And so you'll see a lot of, like, trainers still coaching to, like, only 90 degrees or, you know, only going in front and never behind your back and, you know, and all those things. In that case, on that, I think we can speak better too, because that I was guilty. Yeah, because different certifications sometimes. Oh, yeah. I mean, if you looked at, if most of the front half of the certifications that I had learned, it was, as a matter of fact, I believe it was, I want to say it was Nesta was the first certification that I remember hearing this. And I remember first was my trainers, they went and took it first. And I had to take it because I couldn't believe this. But up until that point, I actually thought it was like a huge workout sin to break 90 degrees on a squat. Like if, and, and they were the first certification that I ever took or any of my trainers took that I was aware of that was promoting ass to grass. And the whole idea that as a, it's, it's very natural for you to be in that position that we should be squatting down to that position. And I remember when my trainers came back to me after they took the certification before I did, and they were telling me this and we were like debating. I'm like, no, that is dangerous and unsafe and blah, blah, blah, blah. And like, I remember fighting saying, and I was in the camp of 90 degrees. Same thing goes for the behind the neck pressing, right? And that was just, I mean, I used to actually look for people in the gym that were training that way. And then I would school them on why they shouldn't and why it's dangerous. And then I would coach them on, you know, pressing in front of them. So I definitely can see where that, there's definitely discrepancies and movements like that. That I just was unaware of why certifications were teaching us that, you know, and the same thing with a shoulder pressing down to 90 degrees only and not going all the way down to your chest or whatever, all the way to the back behind the neck. Movements like this, I didn't know that certifications did this because they're in the business of not getting sued. And if they teach all these trainers to tell all their clients go ass to grass, knowing well that 90% of the population don't have the mobility and the range of motion to do this. Yeah, because then they have to teach the trainer how to get them to that point. Which is a whole another level of education. Yeah, and on the other end of that, any exercise done with poor control, poor stability, is dangerous. That's right. So it could be a curl. It could be as simple as a curl. But if you don't have the control, the stability, the strength, and the ability to perform it with good form, then it becomes dangerous. So this is true for all exercises. So if you can do a movement, and I learned this from gymnasts that worked for me as trainers, is they would do things that I would never, I would always think were super dangerous, but they had great control and mobility, good stability, healthy shoulders and joints. Their bodies are capable of doing this and they can do it with good control and stability. Therefore it's no longer, it's not a dangerous movement for them. And by the way, this is also the motivation behind starting Mind Pump TV on YouTube. You've got over 500 exercises on there now. So if you're looking for good information related to mechanics of exercise, either ourselves are on their teaching or we've sought out other professionals in the space that we think are providing really good valuable information regarding that. There's tons there, so go there.
