In this interview Functional Movement Screen creator Gray Cook discusses his new Fundamental Capacity Screen with Cody Dimak.

Anatomy and kinesiology are important and you need to know it well, but what comes next? Do you then understand the system that governs movement?

When Gray Cook says he doesn't let people deadlift if they can't touch their toes, what's the reason? Is it that big of a deal? Here we get to listen to him tell the story of the toe touch -- why he cares, what he's looking at and how he fixes it.

Here Gray Cook explains the concept of resetting, reinforcing, then reloading, and tells us why it's a mistake to get these in the wrong order. This talk will also give you an idea of the difference between the FMS and the SFMA, and how the same exercises can be used for different results depending on the situation.

The 2012 International Federation of Orthopaedic Manipulative Physical Therapists Conference was held in Quebec in October 2012. Gray Cook was a keynote speaker.

Listen in as Gray Cook considers the various ways a mobility problem might begin, and some of the best ways to combat these problems, depending on the underlying cause.

You've heard of RNT, but do you really know what it means -- How it was created and what is its purpose? Here Gray Cook explains how RNT came to be used, and his thinking behind reactive neuromuscular training.

In this free talk, Gray Cook discusses the difference between schooling and education, and explains why we need to participate in both.

Here's where you can spend a half-hour with Gray Cook as he develops his thinking about the mental aspect of discovering and working through movement issues.

In this conversation, Craig Liebenson asks Gray Cook the questions he has, and has heard people ask, about movement screening and the medical model of the Functional Movement Screen. This is an in-depth conversation that will answer some of your biggest questions about screening, resetting and reinforcing as taught by Gray Cook.

In this talk, Gray Cook discusses the important points he made in the book Athletic Body in Balance, and follows that with what changes or additions he'd make if he were to re-write the book now, 10 years later.

In this lecture, physical therapist Gray Cook explains the thinking behind the concept of self-limiting exercise, tells how the idea came to be, and gives examples you can immediately begin to use yourself or with your clients.

This is Gray Cook's talk on the movement principles, given at CK-FMS May 2013. It's an overview of his philosophy of movement, and the foundation of the Functional Movement Screen. It was a live talk, and unfortunately the sound quality is not the best.

This discussion begins with references to the Upper- and Lower-Crossed Syndromes, and weaves its way through coaching, competitive sports and clinical patient treatment. Spend a half-hour listening in as Gray Cook and Craig Liebenson talk about what they learned from the work of Vladimir Janda and others, and how they developed that learning into something more.

This is the first in a series of dialogs between Gray Cook, PT, and Craig Liebenson, DC, in which they share their insights about the origins and evolution of functional movement assessment.

This Gray Cook lecture was recorded live at the VCU School of Medicine Physical Therapy department, during which he outlined his hope for the future of physical therapy and strength and athletic training programs. When should we seek medical attention; when should we prescribe or practice corrective exercise? Do we have a checklist, or is there one on the horizon?

In this talk, Gray Cook clarifies the difference between isolating a body part or a pattern. He then gives examples of how he uses that difference to work toward success. What's the difference between bridging, activating the glute and half-kneeling work? Listen in as he explains.

In this interview-style lecture, physical therapists Joe Heiler and Gray Cook discuss the nuances of function, its definition and how the concept could be applied to rehabilitation and performance.

In this two-hour session, Gray Cook visits with the first- & second-year physical therapy students at Duke University to give them an impression of possible clinical experiences to come, and to answer their questions.

By now you've heard of dry needling, but do you know what it's used for? The creator of the KinetaCore® Physical Therapy Education Company, Edo Zylstra, sits down with Gray Cook to discuss how they use dry needling and how they integrate it into their physical therapy practices.
