Movement REV

Movement REV I teach sports healthcare pros how to get better outcomes & unreal results even for complex cases.

MovementREV is a company founded by Anna Hartman AT, MS, LAT, ATC, CSCS, PMA-CPT. Anna is passionate about improving athletes' performance and assimilating all the current movement science information into tangible take home pieces for both the athlete and sports rehabilitation or reconditioning clinician. The focus is intelligent movement through awareness and application of blending foundational science and current manual / therapeutic approaches.

In this weeks episode of the Unreal Results for PTs and ATs a podcast by Anna Hartman I talk about the difference between the way most of the performance and rehab industry looks to improve a movement pattern like a sh*tty looking squat vs my approach operating in a whole organism paradigm.

Do I still value the need for a good movement pattern? Absolutely!

Do I still break down the parts of a movement pattern to determine if there are mobility, strength, or stability drivers?
Yes!

But I view those drivers not as the “problem” themselves but as outputs of the deeper driver- I am curious to why the body chose to limit that joints mobility, or soft tissue extensibility, or strength, or stability in the first place.

The body always does things for a reason, it’s embedded intelligence is unmatched.

When we try to “fix” from manipulating the outputs to change the outputs, it is slow, it feels like working against the grain, forcing things.

The locator test assessment protocol® (LTAP®) gives us an opportunity for an assessment to listen to that intelligence and figure out the true driver of the mobility, stability, or strength alteration, ultimately instancing changing motor patterns of movement quickly and long lasting.

And we are back!!!

The Unreal Results for PTs and ATs a podcast by Anna Hartman returns today and I share some thoughts sparked by virtually attending the Tactical Strength and Conditioning Annual Training around building trust, getting people out of pain, and improving movement.

I discuss what actually builds trust with your clients and why getting results is such an important piece of that relationship. I also challenge the common approach of using movement to correct movement and explore why understanding why the body is moving that way can completely change where you start treatment.

In This Episode, You’ll Learn:
📌 The three things I believe create trust between practitioners and clients
📌 How a better assessment can improve both your outcomes and your confidence as a practitioner
📌 Why where you start treatment may matter more than the treatment tool you choose.

If you want your clients to trust you, you have to be able to help them get results. But getting better results might require changing the way you think about the problem in the first place. 🤔

A common critique that I hear especially when you do treatment in an area that is seemingly unrelated to the problem (or even use manual therapy for that matter) is that rapid movement changes are just “nervous system tricks” that won’t hold. ⁣
⁣
But here is the reality of the whole-organism lens: The body organizes its output based on the information the nervous system receives.
⁣
If the brain perceives a threat like the visceral protection I found in this Navy SEAL candidate I treated a couple weeks ago it will sacrifice movement quality to protect the organ.⁣
⁣
This patient’s squat was a mess: a significant lateral shift, pelvic rotation, and ankles caving in. He knew it was “jacked up” and felt like he was fighting against his own body just to force a neutral position. ⁣
⁣
The results were in one session changing his jacked up squat and significantly decreasing his left knee pain with running. 10 days later his squat movement pattern is still clean.⁣
⁣
His “jacked up” squat wasn’t a lack of core strength, hip mobility, ankle mobility, or just moving poorly. It was his body protecting his duodenum and kidney connection.⁣
⁣
You don’t need to “teach” a grown man how to squat. That pattern is a built-in human movement we all mastered at 11–12 months old. My job wasn’t to teach him a new skill, but to remove the “protection software” that was overriding his natural ability.⁣
⁣
Which is why the results stuck instead of feeling like he was stuck in the learning a new skill category of moving from conscious incompetence to unconscious competence.⁣
⁣
The current industry-wide biomechanical model tries to override patterns from the outside-in using cues and props and corrective exercises breaking down the components of the patterns. I’m arguing for an inside-out approach. ⁣
⁣
Instead of spending months on “correctives,” a single less then 10-minute LTAP® assessment can point you to the one intervention that actually can immediately change the pattern.⁣
⁣
Stop fighting the protection pattern. Start addressing the reason it’s there and see movement from a whole organism lens of view, the patterns are embedded so why is the body defaulting to something else.

Some recent unsolicited testimonials from LTAP® Level 1 alumnus.

When I get consistent amazing results it still leaves me in awe of the body and blows my mind.

And when I see it happen for other clinicians after taking the level 1 course my heart feels like it will explode. 💗

The results speak for themselves. No matter what type of practitioner you are the LTAP® compliments any tool or treatment approach and super charges it.

It is not an assessment and treatment system you use instead of what you know, but in addition to it!

Commet “LTAP” to add your name to the waitlist for the next live cohort of the online LTAP® Level 1 course.

Waitlist Presale Sept 7-10th, 2026
Cohort starts October 5th, 2026

Waitlist gets early access + extra enrollment bonuses!!

Ready now?? Comment “2026” and join me for an in-person course!

I know it feels so crazy to just jump into the assessment but it takes way less brain power and also doesn’t overwhelm you when they have a huge medical history.

It also works the best when you have an assessment like the LTAP® to lead they way on where to start.

Once I have a lot of that data I then pause the assessment and have a chat with them, add additional assessments as needed to diagnose or add to the objective information based on my index of suspicion and then go from there.

And it’s important to say that even though I don’t put a ton of weight on their story (because unreliable narrator and all) it is SO important to listen to it and be empathetic to it, because we need our patients to feel heard and be truly seen in order to feel safe and be an active participant in their care.

What you don’t want to do is get so wrapped up in it that you lose sight on what the body is actually telling you.

The fall cohort of the online LTAP® Level 1 starts in October! Get on the waitlist by commenting “LTAP” and get early access and all the bonuses during the presale to the waitlist!

Or join me for an in-person course this year! Comment “2026” for the enrollment details.

It is a really simple fix between feeling like you are banging your head against the wall having to release someone’s hip flexor every day for them to feel good and function well and not needing to do it at all and seeing them 1-2x per month for maintenance instead of 8 weeks to 8 months of regular “rehab”.

The LTAP® (Locator Test Assessment Protocol ®) is a short simple assessment protocol that can be used in any type of practice in any treatment system to super charge your results and finally get you to stop banging your head against the wall wondering what you are missing.

The next online cohort is coming in October! Be sure to jump on the waitlist for all the details, bonuses, and early access!

Welcome to my little corner of the internet 🛜!

It’s been awhile since I did a little (re)introduction. And if you are new here I would to hear from you!!! Who are you? Where are you?

Clinically I split my time between my professional athletes I travel for and a local growing group of Navy SEAL candidates 🔱 🐸. Both populations are high performers, thrive under pressure, and are just all around good dudes.

When I am not evaluating and treating them I am teaching fellow rehab professionals in the MovementREV community through my online and in-person courses and 12 month mentorship program.

Once upon a time one of my business mastermind friends told me my IG needed more post about my personal life. She said like your significant other or kids or hobbies. I literally laughed out loud. It’s not on purpose. 🤷🏻‍♀️ I’m a single, childless plant 🪴 lady. 😂 So I guess if you have anyone to set me up with HMU. 😂😜

And as much as I’d love to post pics of all my professional athletes and Navy guys who also double as my close friends, I like to keep their identities private because “HIPAA” and “national security”, and because WHO I work with is not the indicator of my expertise and ability to get results.

I am a fun auntie to nieces that span 6yo to 28yo and my hobby is whale watching / wildlife photography and if you want to see more of that check out my Anna Hartman profile. 🐋🫍🐳

So happy you are here and grateful that you want to learn a new lens of view of the human body and how that can help to get better results for you and your patients.

There were two things that led me to build the assessment I wish I’d had earlier in my career.⁣
⁣
The first was my mom. For over a decade she had shoulder and upper back pain. She saw multiple practitioners, had imaging, got treated for what looked like a straightforward musculoskeletal issue.⁣
⁣
She was eventually diagnosed with lung cancer.⁣
⁣
That changed how I thought about pain. Not because every stubborn shoulder is something life threatening like cancer. It isn’t. But because we’re often the first people patients come to when something hurts, and I wanted to get better at recognizing when the musculoskeletal system might be responding to something outside of it.⁣
⁣
That question sent me deep into the relationship between the viscera, the nervous system, and the musculoskeletal system, and into osteopathic principles I hadn’t been trained in.⁣
⁣
Then my athletes started noticing something.⁣
⁣
“Why do I only need one treatment with you, but three everywhere else?”⁣
⁣
I wasn’t treating better. I was getting better at figuring out where to start. Instead of treating where someone hurt, I started asking what was driving the protection or compensation in the first place.⁣
⁣
I organized what I was seeing into a repeatable process. That became LTAP®.⁣
⁣
It takes less than 7 minutes. It considers the viscera and nervous system alongside the orthopedic picture. It works with whatever treatment techniques you already use. And it tells you where to actually start.⁣
⁣
Kinda chic to create that.
