Kit_L Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 Hello all, When you have an hour or so, download this (or click the link that will open the same podcast in iTunes): http://wellroundedathlete.net/008-kit-laughlin-podcast/ Justin and Sean (and thank you so much for the opportunity, guys) hardly get a word in, but this is the essential distillation of a full workshop, ideas-wise, in an hour. I explain some things better here than I have been able to in the past; and I will be grateful for feedback. I make at least one mistake; I describe the knees and elbows as moving in two planes; I mean two dimensions on a single plane, of course, in contrast to hips and angles (and shoulders and wrists) that can move in three dimensions, so can move in two planes. Anyhow. Please share the link; it all helps. If anyone knows a reasonably priced transcription service, please PM me; this will be a useful template for the next book. TIA, KL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kit_L Posted July 24, 2014 Author Share Posted July 24, 2014 Many things, grasshopper; when you are older... (cue Star Wars theme!) And click on the cinematographer: Oscar winner Andrew Lesnie! IIRC, The Comeback was his first paying job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FedericoC Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 wow! If anyone knows a reasonably priced transcription service, please PM me; this will be a useful template for the next book. Kit, if you are patient - and can live with some mistakes - I can write down the transcript for you, I'm in the process of bringing my English (very good to excellent for all what concerns science, genetics, biology, math...say generally academy, extremely poor for what concern anything else) to the next level, and figured it could be an interesting exercise. You can just drop me a line in case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kit_L Posted July 24, 2014 Author Share Posted July 24, 2014 Fede, that is an extremely generous offer; may I wait before saying 'yes'? The reason is that Cherie found a transcription service that—allegedly—will do the whole job for $156, a very small sum indeed. And I know how hard you are working. So, let me see if they are kosher, and I will respond within a few days. Thank you sincerely for the offer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geotrismegistos Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 That was a great interview/speech. I just wish it was a few hours longer. Or i must take a workshop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thecolin Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 If anyone knows a reasonably priced transcription service, Or you could crowdsource the whole project. Break it up into 5 minute bits and get a handful of volunteers from the forum (you've got two already!). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kit_L Posted July 24, 2014 Author Share Posted July 24, 2014 Colin; interesting idea. Can you break down to me how this might be done, step-by-step? if you this this process analysis is a bit OT, email me, but I am perfectly happy if you work it through here. Cheers, kl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Duff Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 I liked the podcast a lot, especially the idea of the body adapting to whatever demands are placed on it(unless you put too much on yourself, then you'll break ). I think this is how we work in general, not just in stretching. Also very inspirational to hear your recovery story. My grandfather had tick-borne meningoencephalitis over a year ago and was bed ridden for little over a month; it took him 6 months to be sure enough on his feet to walk on his own, which I think is pretty good recovery for a 76 year old man.

thecolin Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 Can you break down to me how this might be done, step-by-step? In my mind, you'd just collect a pool of volunteers to take manageable pieces of the show. Take the show length, lets say an hour for simplicity's sake, and you have twelve volunteers, you just divide the time up evenly between the people. Which would obviously be five minutes a person in my example. Though it would probably be better if everyone's time overlapped by ten or twenty seconds, then you just crop the extra text when you fit them together. Which is a lot easier than going through the show and grabbing words that may have been missed between one person's time and the next. Doing the whole thing is a bit of a daunting task if you don't do it professionally, but I'm sure you could find a decent number of people who could transcribe five or ten minutes of audio. I'd suggest you take the first chunk and post it before anyone gets started, then everyone will look at your first piece and copy the formatting so it's consistent throughout. An additional option would be to have each volunteer pass their piece onto the next person down the list for a quick review to catch any typos.

Frederik Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 Excellent interview. No doubt. Also I am looking forward to hearing the other interviews, some very interesting people on the show. Much of the information I had "heard" before, but also I had not thought about in quite the fashion that Kit presented them here. I can only imagine it could be quite a lot to swallow for someone being presented to this information for the first time. In a similar vain, now I really really have to go to Piacenza! regards, Frederik Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
agmemon10 Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 If Kit decides to crowd source the transcription, I am also willing to help out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geotrismegistos Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 You don't need to: you heard the tape—oh; that's right—there's the stretching part, too! Piacenza, Northern Italy, later this year? That one is quite near and very affordable. Hope u will repeat it next year. I am currently a few short months away from graduation and im doing thesis/practice with obligatory daily presence at the U. Hopefully i can get a job after a few months too, i would prefer to visit you in Australia and combine it with traveling to the only continent i havent visited yet (minus Antarctica).

Kate Abernethy Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 As one who would really appreciate transcripts, it is so nice to see your positive comments on getting them done :-) Thank you. If any non-audio services* are required, please ask! *barring the usual suspect :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tris Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 Kit: I've done a lot of transcription work in the past. Would be happy to do the full service for $100AU with quick turnaround. ("mate's rates") Let me know if you're interested and we'll get it done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yamad Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 A really great interview. I learned a lot and a lot of stuff I hadn't quite processed yet clicked in for me while listening. In particular, the idea of "remapping" to convince the brain that a certain ROM is safe never made quite so much sense to me as it does now after listening to the interview. Kit's depth of knowledge and clarity of thought are on full display here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please link to it wherever you feel it will be most useful (same for the podcast). And if you do not visit the ST FB page, there is some news there (second edition of Stretching & Flexibility.

thanners Posted September 12, 2014 Share Posted September 12, 2014 Apparently his website has overloaded and crashed. He won't be able to fix it for a few days, however, this is a link to the mp3 for the Kit Laughlin interview: http://traffic.libsyn.com/movesmart/008.mp3 (edit: erm, my text-based browser isn't showing anything. I can't tell whether it just magically turned the link into an embed, or whether it just ate the link. So, in case the above one didn't work, the url is: http://traffic.libsyn.com/movesmart/008.mp3 ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joakim Anderson Posted September 13, 2014 Share Posted September 13, 2014 Thanks thanners, and thanks Kit for a great interview. Always very interesting and inspiring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zenwoof Posted November 17, 2015 Share Posted November 17, 2015 Worthy bump - glad I searched the forum after listening to this podcast. I was going to listen to it again and transcribe but thanks so much for the transcription! Also Kit, I was quite happy every time you furthered the conversation at the risk of "talking too much". True pleasure hearing out your ideas; looking forward to the USA workshops next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
