Episode 036 - Katie St. Clair on Pelvic Floor Power & Athleticism (At Any Age)
Update: 2025-04-19
Description
In this episode, I down with movement expert Katie St. Clair to unpack the principles behind smart training that bridges rehab and performance. We dive into how to restore movement variability, improve pelvic floor function, and go beyond isolated breathing drills to train resilient, powerful clients—without overcomplicating things.
What we cover in this episode:
- How Katie evolved her model from detailed assessments to movement-based coaching
- When internal rotation isn’t the problem—and what to do instead
- The role of connective tissue behavior in solving stubborn movement dysfunction
- Pelvic floor dysfunction in athletes (yes, even the male ones)
- Why jumping is underused in gen pop and how to safely reintroduce it
- A framework for building glutes without sacrificing hip motion
- Coaching athletes and adults to be powerful, springy, and pain-free for life
This is a must-listen for strength coaches, rehab pros, physical therapists, and personal trainers who want to blend biomechanics, breathing, strength, and practical coaching into a seamless system.
