Discover the game-changing assessment technique that's transforming how coaches understand movement dysfunction.

In this week's BLD Education recap, we dive deep into the incredible ribcage assessment discussion from our coaching group that could completely revolutionize your programming approach. Learn why your client's infrasternal angle (the simple chest measurement you can see instantly) predicts their squat, press, and movement compensations with startling accuracy.

🎯 What You'll Learn: • The 90-degree rule that reveals inspiratory vs. expiratory bias patterns • Why tier-1 wide ribcage compensations look identical to tier-2 narrow ribcage issues • Research-backed evidence from Journal of Physical Therapy Science & Sports Biomechanics • Constraints-based exercise selection that makes corrections automatic • How to explain complex breathing mechanics to clients in simple terms • Injury prevention strategies based on ribcage type prediction

💡 Key Takeaways: • Unilateral dumbbell bench press with reach for wide ribcage clients • Overhead variations for narrow ribcage expansion • Why your "ankle mobility" client might actually have a ribcage problem • How to integrate corrective work into strength training (no extra time needed!)

Perfect for: Personal trainers, strength coaches, movement specialists, and fitness professionals who want to understand the WHY behind client movement patterns.
