Everyone is starting to talk about fascia now, and yet very few people understand how much it influences the way we move. This clip from Dana Sterling demonstrates the problems that myofascial adhesions can cause in a very simple and clear way.

When fascia becomes dehydrated, tangled, or stuck, it loses its ability to provide space and feedback for the muscles to move efficiently. Instead of sliding, coordinating, and distributing tension the way it’s designed to, your muscles get pulled into poor patterns of posture and movement.

Most people assume the answer is to stretch, it’s not. Stretching doesn’t address the adhesions or roadblocks you see in this video. It just pushes and pulls on tissue that’s already locked down.

If you want to restore your mobility and movement, the real solution is improving how your body organizes and distributes tension through motion. Targeted myofascial release and proper movement training help free up these restrictions so your muscles and fascia can glide and function the way they should.

Train for integration and your body will thank you.

Top 3 Tips on How to Stay Hydrated

1️⃣ Myofascial release helps create space in your joints and fascia, the connective tissue that surrounds and supports your muscles.

By releasing mechanical tension in these tissues, you restore the physical space needed for water to be stored.

This allows your tissues to expand and retain fluid more effectively, rather than letting it leak out.

2️⃣ When you experience anxiety, your nervous system goes into a sympathetic state, your muscles contract, and your fascia stiffens.

This chronic tension acts like a tourniquet around your bones and tissues, reducing space and making it harder for your body to retain fluid.

By managing stress and down regulating your nervous system, you allow your body to relax, and your tissues expand, which is essential for true tissue hydration.

3️⃣ Water movement in and out of cells depends on proper electrolyte and salt balance in your system.

These minerals are what enable you to draw water into your cells and maintain it within your cell membrane.

Without them, water passes through your system without being properly absorbed, leaving you dehydrated.

When it comes to improving health and performance, bringing balance to your muscles and fascia is one of the most important things you can do. It sets the foundation for how your body moves, adapts, and performs under load.

Everyone’s talking about fascia and functional movement now, yet few actually know how to apply them. We’ve spent over a decade refining these principles and developing a system that not only addresses the fascia in training, but produces real, measurable results through precise exercise application.

Despite the science emerging around the biomechanical and bioenergetic properties of fascia and its influence on how the body adapts to exercise, many in the industry continue to downplay its importance. They rely on outdated models that separate structure from function, a perspective that fails to explain why so many people stay in pain despite years of training. The reality is that until the fascia is addressed, lasting improvements in movement and performance will remain out of reach.

If you want to start training your body in a way that optimizes how your muscles and fascia work together, comment “fascia” below.

Most people think staying hydrated means consuming water and electrolytes. But if your body doesn’t have anywhere to store that fluid, it ends up discarding it. Moving correctly is what creates space in your tissues, so you can retain that fluid instead of losing it.
