Biomechanics Academy
A podcast for coaches, clinicians, and serious lifters focused on the science of biomechanics as applied to gym training. Each episode explores movement mechanics, force application, and practical implications for strength and rehabilitation. The show aims to help listeners think more deeply about how the body works during exercise and how to apply that knowledge in practice.
