9 Best Biomechanics Podcasts to Listen to (2026)

Movement isn't optional—our bodies need it to thrive. Many of us struggle to get regular exercise, and even when we do, it can fall short of truly nourishing the body from head to toe. How can we move more—a lot more—when parts of us are sore, stiff, or simply forgotten in our busy lives? Join biomechanist Katy Bowman, M.S., and biologist Dr. Jeannette Loram on Move Your DNA, where big-picture science meets practical action. Together, they explore biomechanics, kinesiology, physiology, cellular biology, and natural human movement—and translate it into simple, effective ways to wake up your trillion body parts. With humor, curiosity, and a focus on longevity, Katy and Jeannette help you move smarter, move more, and create a more natural habitat for yourself and your communities in today's mostly sedentary world. more

Dr. Dustin Hardwick, PT, DPT, PhD, brings decades of movement science expertise to every episode, translating complex biomechanics and motor control research into clear, actionable insights. Each week, we'll unpack the science of human movement, from joint mechanics to exercise analysis, combining cutting-edge research with real-world case studies. more

Your favorite biomechanics podcast! Melissa Boswell, PhD, and Hannah O'Day, PhD, researchers at Stanford University, talk to researchers around the world about the exciting field of human (and animal) movement biomechanics. They also cover overcoming failures, collaborations, open science, leadership, and more. For more information, visit our website biomechanicsonourminds.com. more

A deep dive into the world of exercise, pain and injury with a Movement Optimism spin as opposed to the kinesiopathological model. The traditional view of the human body has considered to be much more akin to car when we should have been viewing like a robust ecosystem. This is a masterclass on critical thinking and hopes to get you challenging your biases as well as ours. more

The Ballet Science Podcast is hosted by Caroline Simpkins, Ph.D., a former ballerina turned biomechanics researcher. Each week, we bring science into the ballet studio, exploring the intersection of ballet, dance science, and human movement. Topics include injury prevention, biomechanics, strength, nutrition, mindset, and performance. Discover how the science of ballet can help dancers (and anyone who moves) perform and feel their best. more
