If you STILL think deadlifts are bad for your back

If you STILL think deadlifts are bad for your back, I’ve got a summer home in Antarctica I’d love to sell you… 😜

👉Here’s something good for you: a free life strength training class!

👉September 19th at 8:30am PT/11:30am ET
FREE online or watch later - there’s a 30-day replay

If you’re at all aware of what Movement Logic is about, you’ll know that lifting heavy:

✅Is one of the only research-proven ways to improve bone mineral density and guard against osteoporosis/osteopenia
✅Yoga doesn’t do it - and neither does Pilates
✅It prevents muscle atrophy (which starts in your 30s)
✅It is preventative against injury, promotes longevity, improves mood, and builds your functional capacity and resilience
✅Most people (women in particular) do not lift anywhere near the weight they need to in order to gain these benefits

Join Laurel and Sarah and:

➡️Sample a strength class

Chloe gave me permission to post this and use her name. She’s been a patient of mine for the past 4 years, and during that time has almost totally overcome a neurologic injury.

When I met her, she was bent over using a walker and had very little use of her left hand.

Now… well, a video speaks a thousand words.

For the PTs, OTs, and all the care teams out there: this is WHY we do it. 💪🥹😍💪

Chloe is starting college in a few weeks. Look out, world.

👉👉Have you listened to the latest Movement Logic podcast ep yet?

In this episode, Laurel and Sarah dive into the history of how DEXA scans came to be so ubiquitous, what are the risks around osteoporosis medication, and whether osteoporosis and osteopenia were intended to be diagnoses in the first place.

You will learn:

👉How was the DEXA score for osteoporosis first decided on
👉Was osteopenia supposed to be a diagnosis for treatment
👉What role did Merck play in getting more women to take their new drug Fosamax
👉What are the risk factors for the side effects of bisphosphonate drugs
👉What is the difference between a population risk vs an individual risk
👉Why it’s not recommended to get a DEXA scan before you are 65 years old
👉The role of iatrogenesis in the medication choices and use for women with osteoporosis

Bulky doesn’t always mean big. We’re been so

Bulky doesn’t always mean big.

We’re been so conditioned to dismantle our bodies, to find fault with non-existent “problems,” that a small change in our appearance can feel enormous and uncomfortable.

I’m working on being comfortable in my discomfort. 💪💪💪

Yoga can’t do this.
Pilates can’t do it either.
Sorry/not sorry.

We have some INCREDIBLE news to share

As you know, at Movement Logic we run a 6 month live online bone density course, lift for longevity, where we teach women to lift heavy with barbells.

Some of our participants had already been diagnosed with osteoporosis via a DEXA scan, and wanted to improve their bone density using heavy lifting and impact training, just like many women successfully did in the LIFTMOR trial (and that is open source, you can google it and read about it if you aren’t familiar with it).

So: we just heard from one of our participants, Kathy Page (@kathypageyoga), who had been diagnosed with osteoporosis before starting our course.

She just did a follow up DEXA scan and… drumroll please… has REVERSED her OSTEoporosis! Just by doing heavy weight training and impact training in our Bone Density Course. She didn’t have to go on any medication.

AND as a fun side effect she’s now strong AF.

So we want to say congratulations to Kathy for putting in the work, and if this sounds like something that you’d like to try, osteoporosis or not, you can join us for our next round starting in October by joining our mailing list at the link.

Research tells us that posture and pain do not correlate

So instead of micromanaging everyone’s posture in your class, get them strong in a variety of places

We go back into the weeds with Stu McGill, who this time talked to Andrew Huberman for 3 hours and unsurprisingly, came up with some real doozies.

Is he going on Joe Rogan next? If so, Sarah wants nothing to do with it (and neither does Laurel).

🎊Festival of Strength🎊 When I was in PT sc

🎊Festival of Strength🎊

When I was in PT school, and exam week rolled around, we had one teacher who called the exam period the “Festival of Knowledge” to try and make it a positive experience

(we did not find it a positive experience)

Whenever I get to work on PRs I feel like it’s a Festival of Strength. This is a much more fun Festival than the PT school one. It’s full of potential and possibility.

After several weeks of lifting programming that fluctuates but does not go over the previously drawn 1RM line, what can I do?

I’ve PR’d this weight before, and then life got lifey, and my numbers went back down. This is part of the cycle of the Festival of Strength, and I’ve learned not to feel bad about it.

There was something very sweet in getting back to my previous PR this time!

Doing no harm means not instilling shitty narrativ

Doing no harm means not instilling shitty narratives in the people you purport to help by making them believe they are fragile, broken, or dysfunctional. Yet, if we had a penny for each person we’ve encountered who had a massage therapist, chiropractor, physical therapist, medical doctor, or even movement teacher who told them they had joints that were stuck, crooked, wonky, dysfunctional, or (my favorite) “bone on bone”, we’d all be rich.

Unfortunately, manual therapy has been taught in a way that is out-dated and lacking in evidence for so long (and continues to be taught so today) that these type of baseless, shitty, disempowering narratives are often accepted as fact. By that time, the harm has already been done and beliefs like this are difficult to undo.

Please listen to episode 69 of the Movement Logic Podcast “Crack is Whack - Adam Meakins and a Modern Approach to Manual Therapy” (link in bio!) to learn more about harm reduction as a manual therapist (or anyone who has influence over what people believe about their bodies!)

Also, read his co-authored paper “A modern way to teach and practice manual therapy” which is open-source, clear, well-written, and relatively short paper (half of it is citations from over 150 research papers spanning decades!)
