He has a strong biomechanical background, which is interesting when you realize his interest in movement optimism and science. Biomechanics is the science of movement of a living body, including how muscles, bones, tendons, and ligaments work together to produce movement.  Questions related to this episode: What is the most importmat aspects of the biomechanics for rehabilitation professions in your opinion?
