12 Dec Book Review: Back Mechanic
Not too long ago I was talking with a buddy about his low back pain. We were discussing the back issues he's been experiencing. As I was talking with him to understand a little more about his situation, I recommended a book that I had recently read titled "Back Mechanic" by Dr. Stuart McGill.

He didn't get the book and I thought that was extremely unfortunate because I knew how much the book could have helped him. That leads me to this book review, which is now long overdue.

13 Oct Mobility or Stability? Making Sense Of An Ongoing Debate.
Mobility, mobility, mobility. We hear about it all the time and we all need more mobility, right? Mobility is very important and I'm even working on a new program right now to improve mobility (although it actually addresses much more than that). But what about stability and how important is stability in strength and performance training? Is mobility more important or is it stability that really matters most?
