🤔TECHNIQUE🤔

The debates and discussions around exercise technique are ones that often quickly divide people into two opposing camps

On one side we have the ultra vigilant perfectionists who think any deviations during exercise are detrimental for performance or safety

The other side we have the radical movement optimists who think people can exercise however they want with no consideration to form or technique… which many mistakenly think I belong to!

But I actually don’t belong to either of these groups… and I think both extremes are bad as each other!

I love seeing exercises performed well… but I also know that variation and variability during exercise is perfectly normal, natural, safe and even advantageous at times

However too much variability does have some drawbacks and issues such as limiting progress and maybe even possibly increasing risk!

But the ultra perfectionists are no better!

Overly rigid and restrictive movements leave people under prepared, limits progression an may also increase risk as well

For me the middle ground is often a good place to be here… which is hard for social media because it loves division and creating tribes

Trying to perform exercises with a good technique that suits the individual that they can do repeatedly efficiently, effectively and safely is important

But so is recognising that allowing people the opportunity and confidence to move with some variability is also effective efficient and safe is just as important!

As always, the answer is never one or the other… it’s it depends!
