The Future Of Movement Assessment & Injury Prevention | Quantify How Your Body Moves W/ Physmodo

In this conversation, we sit down with Andrew Menter, founder of Physmodo, to discuss how computer vision and AI are transforming movement assessment — and why quantifying human movement may soon become as essential as measuring heart rate or blood pressure…

Andrew is a former Division I collegiate athlete turned entrepreneur whose work sits at the intersection of biomechanics, injury prevention, and fitness technology. Born in South Africa and raised in Dallas, he began his athletic career in tennis, earning a national ranking in a Texas state championship before receiving a scholarship to Brown University. He went on to compete throughout college, including four Ironman events, before channeling his competitive drive into building technology that objectively measures how we move.

Through Physmodo, Andrew is pioneering fast, objective, and repeatable movement assessments using advanced computer vision. He does this to help fitness professionals, physical therapists, chiropractors, sports teams, and gym owners better understand mobility, stability, symmetry, and injury risk.

Join in to learn more about:

• What inspired Andrew to start Physmodo.

• How computer vision can assess mobility, posture, and biomechanics in minutes.

• Why movement screening may become a "vital sign."

• The power of measuring movement consistently.

• The two primary causes for injuries.
