EPISODE
You probably don't know much about what Luther Cowden does, but it could improve your life for the better instantaneously. Luther is a resistance flexibility expert, which sounds like a niche specialty, but when is the last time we had the thought that "I'm just not a flexible person", or "I really lost the ability to touch my toes like I used to". We all have those things that we feel that we just can't do with our body. As it turns out, it goes a lot deeper than that. These flexibility problems we have are in majority attributed to dense fascia, a sort of build-up of hard scar tissue that prevents our muscles from doing what they should, and the effects of that can branch into difficulties with losing weight, anxiety problems, or constant pain. Luther, working from the teachings of Bob Cooley, has learned how to heal these problems permanently and instantaneously. We discuss how, along with:
- the roles fascia has in our bodies
- why a pain in your hip might really signal a problem in your hamstring
- why you can pass 500 pounds through an elongated muscle
- how resistance flexibility can identify why you aren't losing weight, and correct it instantly

GET OPTIMIZED!
- Get a massage for relaxation purposes, but understand that it isn't going to remove that buildup of fascial tissue that is giving you the root of your trouble.
- Understand that you aren't an "inflexible" person, you are simply being stopped by an impeded biomechanical structure right now.
- Recognize the difference between true "flexibility" and range of motion. Just because you have a large range of motion, doesn't mean you aren't protecting yourself from strain.
