Kathryn and Stuart talk about movement, human bodies in sport, progressive adaptation, and the spine. Stuart shares some insights on how the spine adapts to stress, and why it’s important to stay below the tipping point.

They also talk about different types of tissue i.e. muscle and bone and how they adapt at different rates.
