In Part one of this two-part series, Damon chats with Dr. Eric Goodman on pain management by utilizing Foundation Training Exercises. Foundation Training is a unique but simple approach to exercising and stabilizing the spine.

These exercises are suitable for injury prevention and recovery for elite athletes and ordinary people. It is also used by those seeking to avoid surgery or post-surgery recovery.

Foundation Training utilizes body-weight exercises to change how we move and correct imbalances caused by our modern lifestyle.

As Dr. Eric Goodman explains, Foundation Training activates the entire posterior muscle chain to balance our movement, anchors the hips, and decompresses the spine.

The effect of all this is to get the tension off your joints into your muscles which put you on the path to health.
