Book Synopsis
Foreword by Chris Hemsworth
A proven program that teaches you how to harness the body's natural movement patterns in daily activities to get fit, healthy, and pain-free for life
Hunching over a keyboard, commuting long hours, slouching on the couch--poor postures resulting from our sedentary lifestyle have thrown our bodies out of balance, causing unnecessary stress and strain that compromise our joints, restrict organ function, and weaken our muscles.
Dr. Eric Goodman has spent years studying human physiology and movement. He's helped people of all ages and occupations heal and correct lifelong debilitating pain with his revolutionary Foundation Training, a practical program that targets the posterior chain muscles--shoulders, back, butt, and legs--shifting the burden of support to where it belongs: the large muscle groups.
Foundation Training is simple: no gyms, no specialized equipment, no complicated stretches. It's a series of powerful movements you can integrate successfully into everyday life--from playing with the kids to washing dishes to long hours in the office--transforming ordinary physical actions into active and mindful movements that help to eliminate pain, boost your energy, and strengthen your body. By harnessing the body's natural movement patterns, you can be fit, healthy, and pain-free for good.
