In this episode of the HNL Movement Podcast, Andrew dives into an important but often overlooked concept — that there are levels to movement efficiency and exercise technique. Just because you’re sweating or feeling fatigued doesn’t necessarily mean you’re improving performance. Andrew explains why athletes who move efficiently tend to make training look effortless, while those who rely on poor mechanics often mistake exhaustion for progress.

He breaks down how movement efficiency is a skill that develops through precision, control, and awareness — not just effort. By focusing on how you move rather than how much you do, you can extract far more from every rep, reduce compensations, and build strength and coordination that actually transfer to performance.

This episode is a reminder to stop chasing the sweat and start chasing quality. True progress happens when you pay attention to the details and refine your movement over time. Tune in to learn how improving your technique and efficiency can take your training and performance to the next level. Enjoy the episode!
