In this episode of the Movement Podcast, Gray Cook and Lee Burton sit down with Ryan Como, CEO of Kinetisense, to talk about where movement screening is headed next.

Ryan shares how his background as a chiropractor—and as an injured D1 hockey athlete—pushed him beyond “treat the painful joint” toward multi-segment, 3D movement assessment. The conversation covers how objective scoring, population comparisons, and AI-driven recommendations can enhance—not replace—clinical expertise.

We dig into:

• Why FMS breakpoints hold up when compared to lab-grade systems
• Turning movement screening into trend data (0–100 scoring vs. only 0/1/2/3)
• Using data loops to learn what correctives work best for who
• Planar plasticity: why elite athletes move well in all three planes

The long game: movement epidemiology—catching risk before injury happens

Asymmetries are normal — but not all asymmetries are created equal. In this episode of the Movement Podcast, Gray Cook and Lee Burton break down the difference between anatomical, functional, and developmental asymmetry, and explain when asymmetry becomes a slippery slope that impacts performance, durability, and injury risk.

They also discuss why the goal isn’t “perfect symmetry,” but keeping asymmetries from getting worse, and how movement screening helps coaches and clinicians make smarter training decisions.

In this episode:

• The 3 types of asymmetry: anatomical, functional, developmental
• When asymmetry becomes a risk factor (and when it’s just sport-specific)
• Why “don’t let it get worse” is the real goal
• Key impairment asymmetries to watch: ankle dorsiflexion + grip strength
• Why dynamic balance + functional patterns matter more than isolated measures
• Practical ways to “scrub the corners” and restore awareness

In this episode of the Movement Podcast, Lisa Chase returns—this time as an author. Drawing from decades of work with professional athletes and everyday patients, Lisa dives deep into the importance of addressing the whole person in rehab, not just the symptoms.

She and Gray discuss:

• The inspiration behind her new book Be Responsible
• Why heart rate variability (HRV) is a game changer in patient care
• How nervous system regulation must come before movement
• Using technology like Newbie, BFR, and Oura Ring to guide interventions
• The five wellness pillars: nervous system regulation, sleep, biology, movement, and environment

Whether you're a clinician or someone navigating your own healing journey, this episode will change how you view recovery and patient outcomes.
