WHAT IS EXERCISE MECHANICS™?
The physics of exercise, applied to real people with real goals
Most exercise education teaches how to perform or coach exercises.
Exercise Mechanics™ teaches how to think about them. What's happening inside an exercise. Why it works for one person and fails for another. What to change, and why.
RTS provides the tools. How to use them is the natural conclusion drawn by every practitioner we equip.
Where It Came From — And Why It’s Different
Exercise Mechanics™ was developed by RTS founder Tom Purvis, who identified that biomechanics as an academic field wasn't translating to practical training decisions
He built a discipline focused on a single question:
How is resistance applied to the human body to create a specific internal stimulus?
That question underpins everything taught in RTS. It's what allows exercise to be designed and adjusted for every person based on their structure, their abilities, and their tolerance.
