Cori Rant: There Are No Bad Exercises

There Are No Bad Exercises! I'm coming in hot today because I am tired of hearing that exercises are bad. Lunges hurt your knees? Deadlifts wreck your back? No. Moves are not bad you just haven't earned them yet, and I'm going to tell you exactly what I mean by that. In this episode I'm breaking down why demonizing exercises is actually what's holding you back, the difference between movement patterns and recruitment patterns (yes, you can have perfect-looking form and still be cheating), and why follow-along workouts might be part of the problem. The goal is never to write a move off forever. It's to regress to progress to meet yourself where you are right now and build back toward what you want. Because the less you train a movement in the gym, the more at risk you are getting injured doing it in everyday life. No move is bad. Every move is earned. Let's get into it.
