And so what is fascia's ro- role in the body?

So fascia has a few key roles.

Now, one of them is simply just force transmission.

So when you think about muscle contraction, again, going back to that oversimplistic idea of looking at the musculoskeletal system, we think of a muscle being, having this very clear origin and insertion.

So when a muscle contracts, it just simply contracts.

It transmit forces from the tendon into the bone to create movement.

And by no means is that not in, that, that not fa- uh, incorrect.

Back to the show.
