Fascia plays a critical role in connecting muscles and influencing their movement and function. When muscles or tendons are repositioned outside of their fascia, their performance does not replicate as expected due to the intricate relationships within the fascial system. The change in fascia can significantly alter the overall stability and structure of the muscular system, highlighting the concept of bio-tensegrity, which emphasizes how tension through fascia maintains organization. The fascial connections enable muscles to work in synergy, allowing emergent solutions to physical movement without needing to define every muscle and joint detail. This facilitates a more holistic understanding of locomotion and muscular function, aligning degrees of freedom organized by the fascial system.
