MOVEMENT
Free+Style
The New York Times bestseller! Everyone cares about physical performance and the fitness industry offers an infinite number of solutions to improve it. But who has the best solution and how do we know if and how it will work for us? After over 15 years of training as an elite gymnast and over a decade of coaching, Coach Carl Paoli offers a fresh philosophy on training by connecting movement styles to fit your specific purpose, while also giving you a simple framework for mastering the basics of any human movement. Freestyle: Maximize Your Sport and Life Performance with Four Basic Movements is an interactive way to learn how the body is designed to move through space and how to interact with our constantly changing surroundings. Using this framework and four basic movements, Paoli will help you maximize your efforts in sport and life, regardless of specialty. Despite Carl’s experience as an elite gymnast and a renowned CrossFit coach, this is not a book about gymnastics, CrossFit, or any specific fitness program. Rather, it is a unique take on how Carl studies and teaches human movement and how you can better understand how to move yourself. Carl is not going to teach you the specifics of a movement or sport; instead, he gives you a template that you can use to develop any specific movement. For example, instead of teaching you how to throw a baseball, this book teaches you a universal foundation that will help you further develop your pitching skills. Human movement is intuitive, but not always perfect. This book shows you how to: * Turn on and trust your intuition about movement * Use tools that help optimize imperfect movement * Tap into the universal movement patterns and progressions underlying all disciplines * Use Carl Paoli’s movement framework to create roadmaps for your physical success * Learn what being strong really means Freestyle is a practical manual to develop human movement regardless of your discipline. It is equally applicable to veteran athletes, weekend warriors, fitness enthusiasts, people trying to pick up a new sport, and people who are simply curious about improving their health. By developing your awareness and learning to see across other disciplines, you can tailor any training regimen to meet your unique goals.

Movement Lab
Welcome to the Movement Lab. After teaching Yoga for many years and studying different movement disciplines such as Circus, Acrobatics, Capoeira, Dance, and Chinese Martial arts, I realized that there was a need for a simple overview on something very complex: a guide uniting visual and verbal mediums designed to help people explore different poses, allowing them to try new shapes without getting overwhelmed. Thus came the Movement Lab. In this book you will find a variety of poses that vary in difficulty, requiring different strengths and ranges of motion. But if you pay close attention to the diagrams and specific instructions, my hope is that you will begin to step out of your comfort zone and face new challenges to find the potential of new movements in your body. The goal of this book is for you to get inspired, not for you to achieve instantaneous success. Use the pictures along with the instructions to get off your couch and explore the poses. Repetition is the mother of skill. Practice and you will receive the fruits of your labor. I hope you enjoy this book as much as I enjoyed creating it. (comes in 3 different formats that are compatible with your devices) www.slavagoloubov.com Let’s Move.
