"Like so many people who have found relief with Foundation Training, I am grateful for the healing." -- Chris Hemsworth, actor "Practicing Foundation Training has been one of the most critical decisions of my surfing career. I had recurring lower back problems when I was younger, but since starting Foundation Training, my flexibility and stability are both the best they have ever been" -- Lakey Peterson, women's surfing champion "After thirty tough years of service in the Army Airborne and Rangers, I was told by six different spinal surgeons that spinal fusion was my only option. And then I discovered Foundation Training. If only I had this marvelous tool on active duty." -- Colonel William C. Ohl II "Foundation Training exercises are the answer to my many years of research on the negative effects of sitting." -- Dr. Joan Vernikos, former NASA director of life sciences and author of Sitting Kills, Moving Heals "Foundation Training has been one of the most impactful additions to my career.

Reseña del editor

Radical in its simplicity, Dr. Eric Goodman's visionary approach to mindful movement corrects the complacent adaptations that lead to back and joint pain, and teaches us to harness the body's natural movement patterns into daily activities to make us fit, healthy, and pain free. Our sedentary lifestyle has led to an epidemic of chronic pain. By adapting to posture and movement that have us out of balance-including sitting all day at a keyboard, tilting our heads forward to look at our phones-we consistently compromise our joints, give our organs less room to function, and weaken our muscles. How we hold and live in our bodies is fundamental to our overall health, and the good news is that we all hold the key to a healthier body. Dr. Goodman has spent years studying human physiology and movement. He has trained world-class athletes for better performance, and has healed people of all ages and occupations of lifelong debilitating pain. His theory of self-healing is now available to everyone. His practical program trains the posterior muscle chain-shoulders, back, butt, and legs-shifting the burden of support away from joints and putting it back where it belongs: into large muscle groups. Filled with helpful diagrams, more than sixty color photographs, and five new exercises, True to Form shows readers how to successfully integrate these powerful movements into everyday life-from playing with the kids to washing dishes to long hours in the office-transforming ordinary physical actions into active and mindful movements that help to eliminate pain, up your game, or simply feel more energetic. True to Form shows you how to move better, breathe better, and get back to using your body the way nature intended.
