Episode description

Is neutral spine more efficient? First we have to define what we mean by efficient. Then, I promise you a more nuanced answer than simply “yes” or “no”.

Resources mentioned in the episode here:

  • Upright thoracic posture allows greater shoulder ROM here
  • Passive tissues provide most of the stiffness of the spine in flexion here
  • Flexed spine postures are more efficient for lifting heavy things here
