Thank you so much for attending The Revolution, and giving us your time and attention.
There was a crap ton of information presented this weekend, and it can be a lot to digest. Below, I have a list of my references, some videos on how to perform the exercises in my presentation, and some supportive material.
If you’d like to increase your ability to apply the material, you can check out some of my other seminars here, or below the supportive material.
Enjoy!

Exercises
Lower Thorax Variability
The move below is a baseline position to teach breathing mechanics to wide infrasternal angles
The move below is a baseline position to teach breathing mechanics to narrow infrasternal angles
Pelvic Variability
Exhaled spine and wide infrasternal angle
Inhaled spine and narrow infrasternal angle
System Variability (aka move the piston)
This move is great for unilateral hip extension.
And a progression in unilateral hip extension, as the base of support is smaller
This move is great to teach inhaled spine mechanics
This move is my baseline for teaching people how to squat

Human Matrix: The seminar that will help expand your ability to maximize the movement capabilities of your clients
Do you…
Have patients who hurt multiple areas and are unsure where to start?
Have training clients who can’t perform the exercises you want to despite extensive coaching?
Want to maximize your client’s movement capabilities better than ever before?
Want to know why incorporating breathing into your skill set is exceedingly important?
Then welcome to Human Matrix: The Code for Maximizing Health and Performance. A course where you will develop a thorough understanding of how to systemically view movement, speed up your warmup time by choosing exercises that precisely attack movement limitations, and coach exercises to perfection to enhance your client and patient goals.
By entering the Matrix and affecting movement systemically, building up your client’s movement repertoire from the ground up better than ever before.
Most continuing education courses out there focus either on teaching all theory and no practical application, or teach you a technique without a why or when.
Human Matrix is different, in the sense that we strive to give a perfect balance of theoretical understanding and practical application. You will leave with not only a better knowledge base, but as a better coach or practitioner.
You will change what you do on Monday! And if you don’t believe me, believe the attendees!
What you’ll learn when you Enter the Human Matrix
- How to build a sound movement foundation to increase the exercise variations your clients and patients will be able to do.
- How to assess your client’s movement capabilities to make precise decisions for improving pain and movement quality.
- How to normalize range of motion of the entire body to both reduce pain and improve how your clients move with fewer exercises than you have ever needed before.
- How to effectively coach squatting, deadlifting, pushing, pulling, and more to build the fitness and resiliency of your clients.
