#154 Anatomy Trains - Smarter Training Through Fascia
Episode Overview
In this episode, OB and Smitty dive into Anatomy Trains and talk about how fascia connects the body in ways most people don’t think about. Instead of just looking at muscles in isolation, they break down how the body’s fascial lines influence movement, posture, and even nagging injuries.
They share real-world examples from training and rehab to show how you can:
- Spot movement issues by understanding fascial connections.
- Adjust your workouts to get more carryover and prevent breakdowns.
- Use a full-body approach to fix problems instead of chasing symptoms.
By the end, you’ll see how reorganizing your training around these lines can help you move better, stay healthier, and boost performance.
