Katie St Clair - Owner/Founder of Empowered Performance Course and Academy - joins us for the 86th episode of MTN. Katie has a long history of coaching, reducing pain, and re-programming movement patterns for the clients and athletes she works with. On today's show, we dig into the simplified process Katie has been able to refine into assessment, we talk about how structure can create compensation and how to train within that, and she schools us on the power of posterior pelvic floor releases (something everyone should be doing!)
