On the care-coach-lead youtube channel, we've posted several videos over the last few months discussing universal movement patterns and how they can make you a better technical coach.
One example is how we look for a vertical forearm in most pushing and pulling exercises like push ups, dips, handstand push ups, burpees, and bent over rows.
Another example is what we call knuckles around the bar, which shows up in many barbell pulling exercises like cleans, snatches, and deadlifts but also in bodyweight exercises like pull ups and toes to bar.
By understanding the safety, efficiency, and transferability of these specific patterns we can become a more confident coach.
In today's episode, we discuss what universal movement patterns are and how they can be used to make athletes of all types better at what they do.
