INTU-FLOW: Moderate, Sustainable Exercise for Pain-Free Health and Longevity

I have given this DVD to my mother and encouraged several family members to invest time in their own personal mobility odyssey. I summed it up for my cousin, “This is the best movement system I’ve found.”There is an 11.5 minute ‘how to move & make progress’ explanation before the beginner movement is shown. As you learn how each joint can and should move, it becomes much easier to explore the movement. Scott includes techniques and tips for those who are doing rehab (& prehab) along with reminders to “shave off” or shorten movement portions that don’t feel good.I have looked at several of Scott’s other videos and I keep coming back to intu-flow. Trying to master each movement is its own challenge. I challenge and humble myself with the advanced movement patterns.Since I work on computers, I find the wrist, shoulder and neck movements of intu-flow extremely helpful for warding off the tech neck and hunch common to seated workers. My wife advises me to do the neck exercises privately, she thinks I look like a weird-o. She’s eventually gotta admire my posture and range of motion though, right?

So I've been doing Intu-flow for say 3-4 years now, and I'm 59! ...I don't know if I'd call it exercise. It's better than streaching. A lot of people who see me doing it think I'm exercising, and I guess in a way I am, only it's mostly only my joints. I've been seen in airports, on planes, in hotel and dentist lobbies, and at my campsite doing my Intu-flow. I love it. I practice the master level now, with bits of all the other levels thrown in from time to time, should I lapse and want to back off, or concentrate on a particular set of joints. It's so simple, easy, and go-at-your-own-pace; when ever, where ever you want. I wake up almost every morning anymore feeling lose and flexible; not so before Intu-flow.I truly believe it prolongs, if not reverses, the effects of aging. I got it for my shoulder, having chronic tendon related pain for over a year, even with 8 weeks of prior therapy. I also had lingering pain from a tendon damaged elbow and a knee. All rock climbing and skiing injuries. These days I can't remember half of the time which shoulder, elbow, or knee were the injured ones. After another injury, I developed daily aggravating, increasingly painful, arthritis in my left thumb and pointer finger that persisted a few years before starting Intu-flow. Within just a few months I could flex it more and more, and the pain began to diminished when I did flex it, and now I hardly notice it. I keep doing my Intu-flow!Before Intu-flow I thought I had good bodily flexibility and range of joint motion, but starting with the beginner routine I found some weaknesses that aren't weaknesses anymore. This head-to-toe inside-to-outside (and that's how you remember the routine) joint mobilization approach is amazing. I tell and show it to all my friends, and everyone, who complains of joint pain, injuries, or just stiffness or lack of flexibility. Every senior center and facility should have it in the daily routine. I re-watch the video, even now, just to tune up my routine. Pay attention to (and re-watch) the introduction that Scott gives, it's the gist of why we do it, and why we get so much benefit from it. I do it every day if I can, and first and always before any strenuous exercise or sport. If I don't do it for a day or two, I miss the tension release and energizing effect I feel afterwards; and for the whole day; for the rest of my life.

In a lifetime of fitness that includes martial arts, weight training, yoga, and basically anything else I can get my hands on, IntuFlow stands out as the indispensable daily routine. Once mastered, it only takes 15 minutes and will leave your body feeling like a car that has been warmed up and is ready to drive. It can also help both to prevent injury and heal existing injuries (within reason). Anyone of any fitness level can do IntuFlow and will immediately feel its benefits, though it's really after a month or so that the beauty of it really comes through.You can try basic IntuFlow for free on YouTube and get a feeling for coach Sonnon's style. Having gone through the full program (basic, intermediate, advanced, master), I find myself doing mostly advanced, with a little intermediate and master mixed in. That's what I enjoy most. You'll be able to find your favorite routine as it's all interchangeable components you can mix and match.Whatever your preferred forms of fitness or athletics are, IntuFlow will compliment it.

I have started on the beginner's section, Scott breaks down all the moves piece by piece and makes it easy to learn. I've not learned the entire routine yet. My intention is to learn it perfectly so am going through it slowly, but I'll make a comment about it's efficacy anyway. The first part of the sequence covers neck, shoulders and arms and it has already improved mobility there and reduced aches and pains. From what I've experienced thus far, I think it will be helpful with my age-related musculo-skeletal problems. Thankyou Mr Sonnon!

I bought this DVD because I like the exercises from Scott Sonnon. I wanted a DVD that I could use when I had less time and only wanted to concentrate on specific body parts. The DVD needs to be better programmed. as per other comments by other users the copyright info comes up way too often. I still like his other DVD better, but it is over 75 minutes long and I haven't been able to finish the whole thing at one time. the exercises are great for flexibility.

I love Scott Sonnon's work. I love his focus, his explanation, his presence. And I love whathis videos do for me. My body has gotten more flexible and stronger than with any otherworkout. I feel younger and more supple, and have lost weight.Unlike so many others who purport to be experts in the field, Sonnon really knows his stuffand communicates it efficiently and powerfully. This is a good workout for anyone, beginnerthrough advanced. It really gets you "in the flow". Highly recommended.
