if you're not around next year?

Yeah, I mean, of course, you know, he he will for better or for worse, you know, he he will own some of the he will take the credit in a lot of ways if he is able to to make the second half of the season look different than the first half.

And that could lead to opportunities elsewhere.

I think kind of regardless, it sounds like, you know, when we spoke with Jim Curtin that first time when he came here, it sounds like There will be a job for him on Jim Curtin's staff for Dave Yarno to continue being the guy you can't get rid of in Austin FC lore.

He will have now been an assistant for three consecutive bosses, and I think deservedly so.

John Gallagher talked about how Davey Arno brought a lot more than maybe the players even expected in terms of changes.

We've seen things a little bit different in terms of sticking with the back five with the inverted wingers and having two strikers where Mirturo Zuni playing almost as a... number 10, kind of a 10 and a half under the striker, whether it's Christian Ramirez or Brandon Vasquez.

What does Davey Arno need to do to kind of balance this roster? And, you know, is this a case of kind of the, you know, trying to make something happen out of what he sees is the best version of the team versus what the form of those players is trying to tell him?

If they could go back to back.

A hundred percent.

And you're right.

Yeah.

There was, that was the defining narrative for him, uh, for a long time when it came to the national team in Argentina, I've had a chance to travel there there.

You will not find a country that is more passionate, more outwardly, um, you know, displaying of their, of their national team pride.

Um, I'll compare it to another country where I actually have, have a lot of family is Spain where.

How do you attack this Spain side that's just so good, so good on possession, so good on defense? and um you know it's a bigger picture in spain you just described it eric because you know the women's team is great the junior teams are great this team this whole country is playing the best soccer in the world right now from the from the top national team all the way down am i wrong

Uh, would you agree with that? The, the best two teams are, uh, in the world are playing today in Arlington?

Yeah, that is how I see it, 100%.

For me, it's, it's France has, has proven to be kind of a level above everyone else just from what they've demonstrated so far in this tournament.

Um, just an ability from an individual talent standpoint, um, especially going forward in that attack with, you know, Mbappe, Dembele, like, you know, multiple guys that have been, at various points, the best player, uh, on the planet.

Uh, however, it, Spain has always kind of been that team that you thought if, if anybody was gonna have a chance to take France out, it was gonna be Spain.

Spain can play them in a way that, that not a lot of, pretty much no other team can by just kind of deny- you know, it's kind of that defense by offense.

Defense by just keeping the ball and preventing France from getting on it and getting their, their Top players denying them that the opportunities to go and, and do what they do and, and that's kind of how Spain has to approach this game in my mind, is they've gotta just be patient.

Do they have any legs left in England, I think, is my que- I think they're the better team, but man, they might be out of gas.

And it's like, get, out of here? What like you got? What didn't you get as a kid? Get out of here.

Can I ask you this question? Why? I mean, you're involved in social media, we're doing a podcast, which is a branch off that.

How and why I know there's a real estate grab within the whole movement, training health world.

But how in the world? Are there so many different concepts and opinions on how a human should move properly or not move that some fly completely in the face of you know basic sciences some maybe jive a little bit with it some steal from other people like what is going on in this day and age because i know that's a lot of patients say to me is like they'll bring something in they're like hey yeah i did your exercise but i saw this and i started doing this and i'm like you don't want to be mean but you're like well this is just complete bs or why why are you doing this and you know I mean, if you just, if I scroll through my feed, cause that's all it is, right? Movement, fitness, strength, conditioning.

And it's like, you watch five different drills.

They'll all be antithetical to each other.

And you're like, how's that possible? How is that possible? Like what's going on that that's the day and age we live in and how is a practitioner and as a patient, can we help kind of sift through that a little bit better?

That there is more of a digestive component than a structural component in over 50% of the chronic pain patients out there that have the same recurring symptom that comes and goes.

What's your, your take on the match last night and how things played out afterwards.

You know, I, I didn't see that press conference, but I, if, if there were, if there were legitimate, if there was legitimate concern about this us team after last night's match, I think that is a little silly because, They were playing for nothing, already through to the knockout rounds, obviously, like you mentioned, a totally rotated squad.

I mean, you know, as we've seen this U.S. men's national team really kind of really impressed when you talk about their starting 11, those 11 best players that Mauricio Pacino has identified, and they've been, you know, playing at a level that we're really not used to seeing from this U.S. team.

Like you said, nine of those players were relegated to the bench.

And depth is just not the strength of this roster.

It's probably that next level in terms of like a national team and a player pool that this country probably should strive to get to is having 26 guys that you feel comfortable bringing on the pitch because especially when you look at that defensive line and just how disorganized they looked at times and how Turkey was able to take advantage.

Those are guys you hope you don't really have to go to in games that have significance.

How does the U.S., as the way they're playing and the form they're in, how do they match up with that team?

You know, how is foundation training different? How do you look at movement and the body and training, and the way you think it should be done?

Great question.

So the first, the first idea of foundation training, something that literally was our slogan for many, many years, was, "I don't care what it looks like, it just feels good." And the idea with that is I teach a sensation of feeling strong, a sensation of feeling connected, of integrating muscles head to toe, of feeling like your body is distributing its weight as, as, just as well as it possibly can in any given position.

And in doing that, we're not bodybuilding at all.

We're, we're helping with balance, we're helping with coordination, we're helping with strength, even endurance in some ways because of the muscular efficiencies that come into play holding these poses.

But the fitness industry is looking at, um...

They're, they're...

I mean, you know, where do you stand on, on that? Do you feel that pain is kind of isolated in the area where you feel it or a result of other things out of whack further down the line?
