Rodrigo Perez - Discover the Importance of Mobility

This week I'm excited to welcome Rodrigo Perez to the podcast. Rod has helped and trained countless athletes from professionals and elite performers, through to groms and the everyday athlete. His movement methodology and holistic longevity and wellness approach has helped countless of his athletes improve the way they move, to become more aware of their bodies, improve their nutrition, break through plateaus in their performance and ultimately become the optimal version of themselves.

Over the last 2 decades he has been broadening and deepening his knowledge. Working with multiple modalities to achieve better mobility and precision of movement, better breathing, self-regulation and mind focusing techniques – we continue to help amateur and professional clients achieve their health and performance goals.

Classes, programs, seminars and consultations are focused, professional, challenging, and yet playful – in order to best prepare clients to be the protagonists of their own wellbeing and achievements.

Some questions asked during this episode: How should we move if we want to live a long and pain-free life? What exercises shouldn’t we be doing if we have lower back problems? How long should we spend on daily mobility?

Excellent. It's funny because we met many, many years ago when Guy was involved in the business and I know that he was a good friend of yours. I have been seeing your messages on social media continually for so long and I thought I've got to catch up with you because I can see what you're doing really aligns with a lot of the stuff that our audience is really, really interested in. So, first up, for all of our listeners then that may not be familiar with you or your work, I'd love it if you could just tell us a little bit about yourself please.

My name is Rodrigo. I've been living in Australia for the last 22 years. Been coaching for 26 years. So I am Spanish, half Brazilian. Mom, is a purely Spanish person, and grew up in Brazil probably half of my life was there, and moved to Australia, was a coach there as well. Finished university there. Then exercise science and I am exercise physiologist. Moved to Australia and had a big goal to first learn English. The funny thing is just know learning the Aussie language. So I still chat with you because I was three years in Australia and I went to London. Over there I had a manager there, and then one of the gymnasiums I was working there as a swim coach. They turned to me and they said, "Where you learned your English?" I say, "Well, in Australia." They say, "No, you learned Australian language mate."
