The first question I get is “What will that do for me?” and the second question I get is “What is it?” (Kind of funny how the questions come in that order.)

It was awesome to have the best of the best in one place lecturing on health and fitness topics. I’ll highlight a few things that stuck out:
This is by no means a comprehensive list, but pretty cool topics.
1. Michol Dalcourt really has a great way of explaining movement preparation as it relates to the hip and foot. I just wish there was more time for his presentation because we didn’t get to the third area he wanted to lecture on, the thoracic spine.
