Most people believe that pain and slowing down is simply a part of aging. But what if you could actually feel better at any age by simply restoring some fundamental movement patterns? On today’s show, you’re going to learn about changing the mechanics of how your body moves for optimal performance and health.
Our guest today is Stefan Duvivier, a former high jump champion and the founder of Mind Your Movement, a company that helps athletes and high performers rebuild their movement patterns so they can move pain-free with confidence. Stefan joins this episode of The Model Health Show for an enlightening conversation on how to improve and restore movement quality.
You’re going to learn about interoceptive awareness, overcoming compensation patterns, and how to build more intentional movement patterns at any age or fitness level. We’re going to discuss how the mind-body connection can affect the way you move and how to listen to your body. Stefan Duvivier is an incredible teacher with a wealth of knowledge on human performance – I hope you enjoy this episode of The Model Health Show!
