Feeling frustrated with your gym routine?
In this clip from the Align Podcast, Ido Portal explains how traditional fitness routines might be failing us and explains what it truly means to evolve as a practitioner.
Spoiler: it’s more than pumping weights and chasing strength.
In this conversation with Aaron Alexander, they strip away the misleading terminology in the fitness industry, redefine popular concepts like “strength,” and uncover how adaptability and personal evolution are far more crucial than maintaining a "perfect" routine.

OUR GUEST
==========
Ido Portal is a practitioner, teacher, educator, and consultant, working with a transformation and evolution-based approach through the medium of Movement in its various forms—physical, emotional, and mental. Ido is responsible for creating and promoting the worldwide phenomenon called Movement Culture, a modern paradigm shift in how humans perceive physical practices. This approach allows for a potent transfer of knowledge, tools, and methods across disciplines and expands the perception of movement beyond isolated terms like 'Athlete,' 'Dancer,' 'Fighter,' and 'Sports Person.'
Ido's primary focus remains is his own practice, with secondary emphasis on spreading his teachings to an ever-growing community of practitioners worldwide. Over the years, Ido has collaborated with professional athletes from the MLB, NFL, European Champions League soccer teams, as well as actors, dancers, musicians, Olympians, UFC fighters, corporate giants, the film industry, and government bodies.
