What is Movement?

Our bodies are a series of complex interconnected systems whose proper functioning are critical for performance and overall health. Baselining how we move can be a critical component to improving our bodies' efficiency, performance, and preventing injuries. 

​

Several components combine in achieving our best overall movement health including: 

  • Flexibility

  • Balance

  • Stability

  • Strength

  • Endurance

 

Musculoskeletal health refers to the performance of the locomotor system, comprising intact muscles, bones, joints and adjacent connective tissues.

​

Identifying any weaknesses in various areas of the body including the foot, ankle, knee, hip, trunk and shoulders are critical assessment areas for improving performance and movement outcomes. Movement dysfunctions in these areas represent muscle imbalances caused by decreased flexibility, muscle weakness, and unbalanced muscle activation patterns.

 

Our evidenced based assessments and recommended protocols, combined with personalized support from WaveOn Coaches can help anyone over time to stay healthy and competing.
