German term or phrase: Bewegung in das Skelettsystem bringen
So klingt es wirklich im Originaltext. Der Sinn ist klar, die Form- nicht mehr…..
Kontexte:
„XY erlaubt/ ermöglicht/ macht es möglich, Bewegung in das Skelettsystem zu bringen“.
Diesmal finde ich, es handelt sich um einen Ausdruck, der in seiner Form ein bisschen „übertrieben“ ist. Ich habe eigentlich keine gute Idee, dies ins Englische zu übersetzen. Als Beschreibung-schon. Ich darf aber nicht bei ziemlich zahlreichen „einzigartigen“ Begriffen/ Phrasen wie dieser/ diese jedes Mal „meine Zuflucht" zu Beschreibungen nehmen.

Herzlichen Dank für alle Vorschläge, Ideen!

Bring/get/kick the skeletal system into (full) swing


Explanation:
Skeletal system sounds a bit weird with verbs denoting movement... Or perhaps just "get those bones moving (again)..?
