• 117: DEXA vs REMS: What's the Difference?

  In this episode of the Movement Logic Podcast, Sarah discusses two primary methods for measuring bone density: DEXA (Dual-Energy X-ray Absorptiometry) and REMS (Radiofrequency Echographic Multi-Spectrometry). The episode explains what each method measures, their technologies, reliability, and practical applications. It compares their availability, cost, accuracy, and limitations. DEXA is recognized as the clinical gold standard but has some limitations, while REMS, although newer, shows promise with advantages in certain clinical situations.Movement Logic Site Wide Sale now on!Follow Movement Logic on InstagramReferences:77: Are You Getting DEXA Scammed?FRAX toolBest Practices for Dual-Energy X-ray Absorptiometry Measurement and ReportingNew technology REMS for bone evaluationCould radiofrequency echographic multispectrometry (REMS) overcome the overestimation in BMD by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) at the lumbar spine?DXA beyond bone mineral density and the REMS techniqueCost-effectiveness of radiofrequency echographic multi-spectrometry for the diagnosis of osteoporosis in the United States

• 116: Coaching Strength, Building Character with James Lederach, MS, CSCS

  In this episode of the Movement Logic Podcast, Laurel Beversdorf talks with strength coach James Lederach, MS, CSCS, about the deeper side of coaching and how helping someone get stronger often means helping them grow as a person. Together, they explore the benefits of strength development for adults and kids, training that supports rather than interferes with sport, the downsides of early sport specialization in youth, and the broader life lessons that strength training offers beyond physical health and performance.James and Laurel reflect on how training develops resilience, self-reliance, and emotional steadiness for both kids and adults. They discuss how good coaching balances structure with empathy, how strength training teaches self-trust, and why the most meaningful outcomes of training have less to do with performance and more to do with who we become through the process.SITE WIDE SALE — Save $$ on our Movement Logic TutorialsFOLLOW @MovementLogicTutorials on InstagramRESOURCESBell, 2018; PMID: 30135085DiFiori, 2014; PMID: 24463910Post, 2017; PMID: 28288281Post, 2016; PMID: 27807260VISIT James Lederach's Gym Heavy Athletics FOLLOW @james_lederach on Instagram

• 115: How to Get Abs

  In this episode of the Movement Logic Podcast, Laurel Beversdorf and Dr. Sarah Court examine the enduring myths and misinformation around the aesthetic goal of “getting abs.” They analyze the anatomy and function of the abdominal muscles, the cultural evolution of ab training versus core strength and stability training, and the role mechanical tension, muscle length, and training volume play in hypertrophy (muscle growth). Additionally, they discuss how pursuing the aesthetic goal of "getting abs" is different from performance goals related to abdominal strength.The hosts unpack popular misconceptions, such as “abs are made in the kitchen,” or that body composition changes work differently for women than men, or that core stability means never moving your spine. They contrast these myths with what current research on energy balance and hypertrophy training show. They also trace how Pilates, physical therapy, and social media helped shape the modern core strength and stability narrative—one that, in some circles, shifted from building strength through movement to “protecting” the lumbar spine by avoiding it.Additionally, this episode aims to clarify all of the factors that influence the appearance of the abdominal region, and how gendered, moralized, and shame-based messaging about the midsection continues to distort public understanding of exercise and body image.CART CLOSES Nov 1st for Lift for Longevity—SIGN UPFOLLOW @MovementLogicTutorials on InstagramRESOURCESClip: Mel Robbing Podcast interview with Stacy Sims about abs67: Popular Explanations for SI Joint Pain are Wrong, Says Science78: Behemoth Knee Myths20: Pelvic Floor In-Depth with Stephanie Prendergast, MPT54: Alignment Dogma - Spine58: Alignment Dogma - Shoulders48: Alignment Dogma - Pelvis80: Posture Panic Pt. 3 with Author Dr. Beth Linker, PhD50: Bracing versus BreathingSlouch: Posture Panic in Modern America, by Beth LinkerGHD Sit-UpHodges, 2001; PMID: 11181617Kalantari, 2024; PMID: 38565979Brown, 2011; PMID: 21325932Cholewicki, 1999; PMID: 10521659
