“What makes you strong! It is not just how much you lift.”
One of the very first fitness based podcasts I listened too was RDella Training by Scott RDella. I started listening to him while getting my doctorate as a physical therapist. I was overly excited that this guy (Scott) had found a way to use his physical therapy knowledge in the strength and conditioning environment. He is a tremendous example that a physical therapist does not have to confine themselves to rehab, they can truly cross over into performance as well. Both rehab and performance should go hand in hand. On this podcast, I was able to uncover some of what I have been working on and how it makes people strong. We talked about what it means to be a Warrior and how you do not have to be in battle to call yourself a Warrior. What you do need to do is take ownership of your health.
While I appreciate training intensely, I also appreciate training complimenting my life and adding to my longevity and happiness. We discussed low back pain exercises, low back pain, Movement Rx, The Low Back Fix, and why all of these are an integral part of my Warrior story. I need freedom, flexibility, time with those I love as part of my life. These systems allow me to achieve that and THAT is what living a Warrior life is all about, seeking out, finding, or developing what you need to live a healthy, happy, and fulfilling life.
I truly had a great time on this podcast sharing how all of this got started and how the process has been. It has not been easy, but it has been right. Every decision or situation that has happened or I experienced to get to where I am now, I am fully responsible for.
