TAKING YOU MORE IN DEPTH, THE BOOK OFFERS YOU AN ADVANCED LOOK INTO ALL OF THE TEACHINGS, METHODS, SCIENTIFIC BACKGROUND, AND PHILOSOPHY OF THIS TRAINING SYSTEM.

The original idea for the PREMIER Body Method came from the vision of creating a complete system that works at all levels, from rehabilitation through exercise, strength, and conditioning. The next thought was about all the people, not necessarily elite level athletes, who simply want to live a happy, healthy, pain-free life through exercise and physical fitness. If you ask anyone who knows about injury, pain, and exercise, you will come to find that poor technique, or the mechanics of human movement, is the single greatest factor leading to injury. Once the individual experiences pain, performance declines and progression stops.

BECAUSE INJURY RESULTS FROM POOR TECHNIQUE, IT MAKES SENSE THAT A COMPLETE, YET SIMPLE SYSTEM THAT TEACHES PROPER HUMAN BIOMECHANICS FROM THE GROUND UP WOULD HAVE THE POTENTIAL TO REDUCE THE RISK OF SUCH INJURIES.

This idea continued to drive the development of the PREMIER system to not only be the bridge connecting rehab to sports performance, but to make The PREMIER system a fully comprehensive program to train human movement mechanics from the most basic level, all the way through a level of functional human fitness and beyond. It is a system thorough enough to progress injury to high-level function, yet simple enough that you don’t have to be a high level athlete to perform it, or have a doctorate degree to understand it. The book, The Sport of Life, is the complete written work and manual for this training system.

Author Bio:

Dr. Donnie was born and raised in southern California. As both a collegiate athlete and student, his academic strengths lead him to pursue the pre-med collegiate major of human biology and biochemistry at UCSB. He then continued his graduate and post-graduate education at Southern California University of Health Sciences, receiving his doctorate in 2008. His passions for sports, science, and the human body lead him to pursue his post-graduate specialty degrees in sports medicine, biomechanics, rehabilitation, sports nutrition, strength and conditioning, and sports performance. Dr. Richardson has worked for various USA National Governing Bodies with several different sports since 2008. During this time, he has served as both a team doctor and sports performance coach, traveling both nationally and internationally all over the world with our country’s elite athletes. His true passion is in the field of human movement education and bridging the gap between rehabilitation, basic strength and conditioning, injury prevention, health and fitness, and sports performance. The culmination of Dr. Richardson's work has led him to create the PREMIER Body Method. www.PremierBodyMethod.com or email Dr. Richardson directly at [email protected]
