In this episode, I interview John Bocti, Registered Kinesiologist and founder of Kinnected Chain. John has been a member of the health sciences community since 2007. In college he learned how to assess human movement and create goal centred programs. Throughout his continued education he was involved in undergraduate thesis work, exploring the science of human movement, and how to better maintain and enhance it. From here, while completing his graduate degree, he explored cognitive decline among the older adult population and the underlying effect of this on human health and movement. John is focused on enhancing athletic performance, along with maintaining independence and mobility among the older adult population. His approach to each person is individual, ensuring the appropriate plan is set to help you reach your goals.

In this episode, we discuss his humble upbringing, how a reference letter changed his path, and talk about one of the scariest moments in his career as an R.Kin.
