He and I talked about how we can help kids develop sound movement mechanics when they're young, so that they are more likely to move well for a lifetime. Later in the episode, we focus on the importance of the feet, and how wearing the right sneakers, or no sneakers at all, can have dramatic positive effects on their entire body.
