So, let's get it done quickly. 

Which one of you knows the answer to question from the video and will have the courage to blare your own opinion out to the world? Don't be afraid, after all, everyone is a hero behind the keyboard."

I'll give you a hint. As every osteopath would say, 'it depends.' That's the truth. Movement can originate from anywhere. That's the beauty of it. Everything depends on where you want to go and what the goal of the movement is. Then it's easy to create a movement that the body translates as an oscillatory wave or a spiral. Your only job is not to interfere. Otherwise, you'll mess it all up. Let the body enjoy the movement and don't throw a wrench in the works. Your body will thrive without injuries.

I've heard it a million times: the deadlift is the best thing you can do for yourself, and it is a functional movement.

The problem is that in order to measure functional movement, we first have to reduce it to an isolated movement. Otherwise, there are so many variables that they cannot be measured.
We measure how far you jump, how fast you run, and how far you throw a javelin. Yes, great. Welcome to the Olympics.

How can you say that the person who is the fastest moves the best? Is the person who throws the farthest the one who has the best throwing mechanics? Is it the person who jumps the farthest who has the best mechanics of the jump and push-off?

We are only deceived by their diligence, hard work, and talent. There are only a few people I've met or seen move where I can say their movement is highly efficient and effective. The rest are just hard workers!

I was the same. I pulled everything with my hands and hip flexors. Then I found out that I hadn't used my hamstrings (the rear thigh muscles) at all. And I played professional football for ten years... How can a person run without them?! And I was still relatively fast... Nobody addressed it, not even me. Why should I, when hardly anyone could escape me? That false pride about how our body is untouchable and perfect.

Whether you are a professional athlete, a football player, or a recreational sports person, take off your rose-tinted glasses and start doing what is best for your body. It will then repay you many times over.
