THE IMPORTANCE OF OPTIMAL MOVEMENT IN FITNESS

Optimal movement involves moving in a way that is both efficient and effective. It helps individuals conserve energy, reduces the risk of injury, and ensures they perform at their best.

To achieve optimal movement, individuals need to focus on several key areas.

1. First, they need to prepare their bodies for the training that is necessary for physical development and good technique (coordination). There are basic building blocks of optimal movement that are necessary for injury free and enjoyable training. This usually involves working with a coach or trainer to assess specific areas for improvement, before engaging in demanding training for a job or sport.  

2. Second, most individuals need to dedicate some time to improving basic flexibility and strength in muscles and joints. This can be achieved through scheduled stretching and exercise routines.

3. Lastly, individuals need to bring optimal and controlled movement into more complex and challenging tasks that generate high performance and success and minimise risk of injury. This is quite job or sport specific – closing the loop between optimal foundational movement patterns and specific adaptation to job demands (S.A.I.D. Principle).

Moovment Scan enables trainers and coaches to recognise the small but important details in movement patterns that can make a huge difference in achieving their goals and remain injury free.
