Send us a text if you want to be on the Podcast & explain why!A client tells you they have a fused disc and suddenly every squat, hinge, and loaded carry feels like a liability. We break that moment down into a repeatable coaching process so you can stop guessing and start programming with clarity. From the first questions we ask about surgery timing and what level was fused, to when it's worth looping in the surgeon or physical therapist, we map out how strong coaching begins long before the first rep.We also lean hard into the biopsychosocial model because post-surgery training isn't only about anatomy and range of motion. It's about fear, guarding, confidence, and the story the client tells themselves about being “broken.” You'll hear exactly how we cue safety, what we look for during an assessment, and how we choose movements that build trust fast without chasing risky positions. If you coach low back pain clients, this is the mindset shift that changes your results.Then we get practical: warm-ups that emphasize spine stability, beginner-friendly circuits with TRX squats, regressable push-ups, planks and side planks, step-ups with bilateral pulls, bridges, landmine presses, and glute work that supports the frontal plane. Finally, we talk progression and long-term strength training after spinal fusion: why trap bar deadlifts and loaded carries can be a smart next step, how to manage fatigue, why 6–8 clean reps beat 20 sloppy ones, and how bone mineral density and heavier loading fit into the big picture. If you found this helpful, subscribe, share it with a trainer friend, and leave a review so more coaches can build healthier backs.Training a client with fused discs isn't just advanced—it's essential knowledge for any serious personal trainer. In this episode, we break down exactly how to safely and effectively work with clients who have undergone spinal fusion or deal with chronic spinal conditions.You'll learn what spinal fusion really means, how it impacts movement and mobility, and the biggest mistakes trainers must avoid. We also cover smart programming strategies, exercise modifications, and coaching techniques that prioritize core stability, injury prevention, and long-term progress.If you want to build confidence, deliver safer sessions, and stand out as a highly skilled coach, this episode gives you the practical tools to do it right.Want to become a SUCCESSFUL personal trainer?

Most people panic in this moment and either stop moving completely or do the wrong exercises… which actually makes things worse.In reality, a low back flare-up isn't just about tight muscles — it's a combination of muscle spasm, an overprotective nervous system, and poor spinal stability.In this episode, I'm going to show you a simple 3-step protocol to calm your back down FAST:

You're stuck at the same weight on your squat or bench, so you assume the answer is more reps, more volume, more grind. But piling on more work without fixing the weak link is exactly how you stay stuck. In the latest episode of Broads, I break down why your core's job isn't crunches, why knees cave in your squat, and how Bulgarian split squats force your glutes to finally do their job. And when your hips shoot up in your deadlift, I unpack what that says about your hamstrings and how to fix it so your strength actually shows up at lockout. Fix the weak link, and the lift follows. What's Discussed: (03:22) Why doing more squats won't fix a squat plateau (05:03) Bulgarian split squats fix knee cave and glute weakness (08:27) Paused bench press builds strength at your sticking point (11:52) RDLs fix weak deadlift lockout and hip hinge issues (12:26) Why squatting your deadlift limits hamstring strength (15:33) Press more than you pull and your shoulders pay (18:40) Your core's job is resisting movement, not crunching (22:56) Accessory work fixes weak links and prevents injuries Check out more from Broads: Website: https://www.broads.app Instagram: @broads.podcast @broads.app Head to https://www.broads.app/broadscoach and apply for BroadsCOACH.

Just an honest look at the evidence and what it means for your recovery.

Camminare è il gesto più semplice e naturale che compiamo ogni giorno, ma può diventare un vero alleato della salute della schiena. Una grande indagine norvegese mostra che bastano circa 100 minuti quotidiani di cammino per ridurre del 23% il rischio di sviluppare mal di schiena cronico. Accanto al cammino, un altro concetto chiave nella prevenzione è la Core Stability: la capacità dei muscoli profondi dell'addome, del dorso e del bacino di stabilizzare la colonna vertebrale durante i movimenti quotidiani. Un "core" forte e ben coordinato protegge la schiena dai sovraccarichi, migliora la postura e rende il cammino ancora più efficace come strumento preventivo. A Obiettivo Salute il commento del dottor Stefano Respizzi, fisiatra e autore de "Il benessere della schiena" (Il Sole 24 Ore).

Handwriting isn't just pencil meets paper; it's purpose, posture, vision, and motor planning working in sync. On this episode of The Brainy Moms Podcast, Dr. Amy and Sandy sit down with occupational therapist and homeschool consultant Sarah Collins (The Homeschool OT) to explore how kids move from “hot mess” letters to confident, legible writing by addressing the real foundations: core strength, shoulder stability, explicit motor plans, and a clear sense that their ideas matter.We break down why cursive can be a game changer for productivity and flow, especially for ADHD and dyslexic learners, and how copy work—when used wisely—reduces cognitive load so kids can master patterns before juggling spelling and punctuation. Sarah shares practical strategies you can use today: vertical writing on mirrors or whiteboards, sand and tactile tracing, wooden letter forms, and programs like Size Matters for spacing and size or Learning Without Tears and its wet-dry-try sequence for consistent motor cues.Vision gets a spotlight too. From visual scanning to convergence, subtle eye issues can sabotage reading and writing. You'll hear how to spot red flags, when to consider referrals, and why multi-sensory practice helps the brain integrate “hardware and software.” We also revisit early milestones like crawling and cross-body play, connect them to later fine-motor readiness, and offer creative ways to rebuild those foundations if they were missed. Throughout, we focus on legibility over perfection, endurance for note-taking, and the powerful memory benefits of handwriting and summarizing in your own words.If you're a parent, educator, or homeschooler looking for evidence-based, real-world tools to make writing easier and learning stick, this conversation delivers. Subscribe for more brain-smart episodes, share with a friend who needs fresh handwriting strategies, and leave a review to tell us which tip you'll try first.ABOUT US:The Brainy Moms is a parenting podcast hosted by cognitive psychologist Dr. Amy Moore and Sandy Zamalis.

The core isn't a muscle.It's a function.Day 14 focuses on core stability — the ability to control the trunk so force can be transferred efficiently between the upper and lower body.True core stability isn't about endless sit-ups or bracing as hard as possible. It's about maintaining position while the limbs move, resisting unwanted motion, and creating the right amount of tension at the right time.In this session, you'll develop:Trunk control in static and dynamic positionsThe ability to resist extension, rotation, and lateral flexionEfficient breathing under loadIntegration of the core with hips and shouldersCore stability underpins everything — lifting, running, jumping, striking, and carrying. When it's missing, strength leaks, posture collapses, and compensations appear elsewhere in the body.This day also reinforces the idea that stability is context-specific. The core's job changes depending on the task, and training should reflect that. You'll work through patterns that challenge control without unnecessary fatigue.Strong doesn't mean rigid.Stable doesn't mean stiff.Controlled movement creates power.Day 14 solidifies the centre of the system.Shaun Kober is a Mindset & Performance Specialist, with a unique skillset forged in the trenches, through the various stages of life."I shouldn't be in the position I am right now."

Have you ever wondered why certain pains keep coming back no matter how much you stretch, rest or change your workouts? Sometimes the issue isn't the pain itself, but the way your body is trying to move without enough support.In this episode I sat down with a physiotherapist and rehab coach to talk about how strength and stability shift recurring aches, why hip control matters more than people realize, how your core holds you in everyday movement and why loaded mobility often creates more change than stretching alone.If you've been dealing with spots that keep acting up or you want to feel more supported when you train, you'll walk away with things that help right away. It's grounded and helps you make sense of what's been happening in your body.Tayla Cannon is the founder of Athletic Rebuild, a virtual approach that helps people move past quick relief and into strength that supports real-life movement. She joined us to talk about what happens when you finally bridge the gap between rehab and training. Tune in.What's Discussed:(00:00) Why pain keeps coming back and what your body might be missing(03:40) How strength changes the way your body handles load(07:15) The role of hip control in back, knee and everyday movement(12:02) What “core support” actually means in real life(18:10) Why stretching alone isn't changing your pain(22:55) How loaded mobility creates better results than passive work(27:30) Building capacity instead of chasing quick fixes(38:20) The mindset shift that makes rehab feel less overwhelmingThank You to Our Sponsors:Timeline: Get you free 3-day trial of Mitopure gummies.

Farmers' walks - carrying weight in each hand and moving with steady control - are catching on as a simple, full-body exercise that mirrors real life. In this episode Ageless Workout creators Nate Wilkins and Shebah Carfagna, explain why this straightforward movement does far more than build strength. It boosts grip power - a marker often linked with overall health and longevity - and helps improve posture, core stability, and balance. Switch to a single side carry and you add a strong anti-tilt challenge that wakes up the entire midsection.From staying ready for travel to handling everyday tasks with confidence, the farmers' walk reflects the kind of movement that supports aging well. This is the latest in our 20-part series, Move for Life.

The kettlebell swing is a cornerstone exercise for building strength, power, and cardiovascular fitness - all in one efficient, full-body movement. Proper technique is key: mastering the hip hinge, engaging the core, and selecting the right load are essential to protect the back and generate force through the glutes.In this Move for Life episode of the Live Long Podcast, Peter Bowes is joined by trainers Nate Wilkins and Shebah Carfagna, co-founders of The Ageless Workout, to explore how this ‘super movement' enhances stability, balance, and body awareness. They highlight why kettlebell swings are especially valuable for older adults, helping maintain quick, reactive strength for daily life.The conversation also covers how to warm up dynamically, integrate swings into broader routines - alongside planks, circuits, or resistance training - and how group workouts can boost motivation and social connection.You should consult a doctor or qualified fitness professional before beginning a new exercise program, especially if you have an existing health concerns or limited mobility.This is the latest in our 20-part series, Move for Life.

“Movement drives brain development, and very rarely do you see movement when there is a screen involved.”Primitive reflexes play a critical role in child development, but what happens when they don't integrate as expected? In this episode, we're joined by pediatric occupational therapist and ADHD specialist Jenna Downs from Stronger Roots Therapy. Together, we explore how these early reflexes shape motor, sensory, and visual development—and how their persistence can mimic or worsen symptoms often linked to ADHD, learning difficulties, and vision challenges.From crawling and handwriting struggles to posture, screen time, and the impact of retained reflexes on focus and reading, Jenna breaks down what parents and educators should know. Most importantly, she shares practical strategies and hope for families navigating these concerns, highlighting the power of neuroplasticity and early interventions.If you've ever wondered whether your child's fidgeting, difficulty concentrating, or visual struggles might have deeper developmental roots, this conversation will open your eyes to new possibilities for growth and support.(00:00) Intro(00:38) Meet Jenna Downs: Pediatric Occupational Therapist(02:22) Nature's role in growth(03:10) The impact of screen time(04:23) What's happening to handwriting skills?(08:20) Why risk-taking matters(11:40) Social skills and the COVID-19 effect(13:11) Primitive reflexes explained(16:27) The Asymmetrical Tonic Neck Reflex(21:26) What is proprioceptive feedback?(22:23) Building core strength: Athleticism vs. Core Stability(25:11) 4D Built to Read Digital Program (26:06) ADHD and retained reflexes - The crawling connection (30:27) Addressing retained reflexes (32:53) Parental role in neuroplasticity (38:43) ResourcesRESOURCESFollow strongerrootstherapyVisit strongerrootstherapy.comCheck out harkla.coCheck out our Digital Programs4D Built for LifeStart your FREE TRIAL today 4D Built to Read Digital ProgramConcussion RecoveryBuilt to DriveFollow us at 4D Vision Gym on Facebook and Instagram @4dvisiongymvt for the latest news and updates.

In this episode, we break down three key things every runner needs to stay pain-free:1️⃣ Core Stability & Proper Stacking – Learn how 360-degree breathing supports your spine and reduces strain.2️⃣ Full Hip Range of Motion – If your hips don't move well, your back will compensate. We'll discuss how to improve mobility.3️⃣ Glute Strength – Strong glutes help propel you forward and keep you stable on one leg with every step.If you want to run stronger, pain-free, and more efficiently, this episode is for you!

Episode #131 David Weck's Game-Changing Training Methods: Rethinking Strength and Movement  

This week, I chatted with David Weinstock, the brilliant mind behind Neurokinetic Therapy (NKT). We dive into the fascinating journey of how NKT came to be, how it's integrated into movement professions like Pilates, and why understanding proper breathing and diaphragm function is so crucial. We also talk in-depth about the role of the psoas muscle in core stability and why it's important to assess whether it's overworking or underworking before diving into treatment. David shares his knowledge on how the psoas connect with other muscles and systems in the body, such as the diaphragm and the limbic system. We also touch on the emotional side of things—how trauma impacts movement—and how addressing this can be key to successful outcomes. David's take on failure and how it's a vital part of learning really resonated with me, as well as his perspective on the joy and reward that comes from helping others and making a positive impact. Takeaways: Neurokinetic Therapy (NKT) is an amazing system that focuses on how movement patterns connect, using biomechanics and neuroscience to assess and rehabilitate both acute and chronic injuries. NKT Meets Pilates: NKT is a perfect complement to Pilates, helping to spot and correct compensatory movement patterns and ensure optimal movement quality. The Importance of Proper Breathing: David talks about how breathing needs to involve a 360-degree expansion of the ribcage (yes, all around!) for the diaphragm to function at its best and how this affects core stability. Psoas Muscle Misunderstandings: The psoas is such an important part of the core, but often misunderstood. Stretching may not be the answer; instead, we need to figure out if it's underworking or overworking before deciding on any treatment. Body Interconnectedness: Every part of the body is connected, and understanding this is essential for effective movement therapy. The psoas, diaphragm, and even the limbic system all work together in fascinating ways. Emotional Trauma's Role: Trauma doesn't just affect the mind; it affects movement. Addressing the limbic system is crucial for deeper healing and more effective treatment. Embracing Failure: David's insight into failure was refreshing—it's a necessary part of learning and growth, something I think we can all relate to. The Reward of Helping Others: David reminds us of the deep fulfillment that comes from helping people heal and make positive changes in their lives. About David Weinstock: David has been at the forefront of manual therapy since 1973, after graduating from Johns Hopkins and traveling throughout Central and South America, learning from native healers. He co-founded the Institute of Conscious Bodywork in California and developed NeuroKinetic Therapy® in 1985. His book, "NeuroKinetic Therapy, an Innovative Approach to Manual Muscle Testing," has become an essential read for anyone in the bodywork field. He teaches internationally, sharing his knowledge with Pilates instructors, chiropractors, physical therapists, and many others. David also runs a private practice in Marin County, where he treats everyone from athletes to weekend warriors, offering personalized treatments to help them recover and thrive. In his free time, David enjoys hiking, skiing, and playing tennis, and he loves connecting with people from around the world, always sharing knowledge and learning from others.

Why do female singers sometimes sound like they've been gargling gravel? In this episode of Join the Docs, our melodious maestros, Professor Jonathan Sackier and Doctor Nigel Guest, strike a chord as they riddle on  raspy rappers and discuss distressed divas. Why might sopranos struggle to sing soulfully instead sometimes sounding far from sonorous? . They kick things off with a tuneful tour of the larynx and vocal cords, those tiny but mighty instruments that can make or break a performance.

With anecdotes that hit all the right notes, they remind us that if hoarseness lingers longer than a three-week encore, it's time to seek medical advice.So, how do famous singers keep their voices in tip-top shape? The episode is peppered with references to iconic vocalists who have battled the dreaded hoarseness. Sackier and Guest serve up a smorgasbord of star-studded stories that add a touch of glamour to the medical mumbo-jumbo. Their witty banter and playful puns ensure that even the most complex concepts are as easy to swallow as a spoonful of honey.Is laughter really the best medicine? As the conversation crescendos, The Docs strike a perfect balance between education and entertainment. They sprinkle in just the right amount of humour, making the medical discussion as engaging as a front-row seat at a Broadway show.So, why not tune in and let Professor Jonathan Sackier and Doctor Nigel Guest serenade you with their insights on hoarseness?

Continuing my mini-series on reducing and eradicating physical pain, today I'm talking about core stability. It's a topic I've addressed in previous episodes, but I think you'll be surprised to hear how I'm discussing it here.     In this episode, I'm sharing how, whether in your own healing journey or when helping clients, that wired alertness may be impeding rehabilitation. Find out why hypervigilance has this impact and how core stabilization can ease your mental and emotional state so you can heal.     Get full show notes and more information here: https://www.functionalsynergy.com/276

In this enlightening episode, I engage with Dr. Chelsea Barnes, a leading expert in physical therapy, to explore the proactive benefits of physical therapy. We discuss how regular PT can prevent severe health issues, much like routine dental checkups. Dr. Barnes delves into pelvic floor dysfunction, its prevalence, and the vital role of core muscles, sharing effective treatments and exercises for post-pregnancy and post-surgery rehabilitation. We also cover hip labral tears in athletes, highlighting both conservative and surgical treatments alongside rigorous prehab and rehab. The episode wraps up with a look into the expanding field of virtual physical therapy, as championed by Dr. Barnes through her practice, "Be On The Move."   Key Takeaways: Preventive PT Importance: Regular physical therapy can prevent injuries and address issues before they become severe, much like annual health checkups. Pelvic Floor Dysfunction: Affects both men and women, often related to core dysfunction and hormonal changes; treatable through specific exercises and PT techniques. Core Activation: Essential for improving pelvic floor health and overall stability; specific exercises such as 360 breathing, dead bugs, and bird dogs are recommended. Hip Labral Tear: Increasingly identified in athletes, it can often be managed conservatively, though surgery may be necessary. Prehab and rehab are critical for recovery. Virtual PT Growth: Post-COVID, virtual physical therapy has become a viable, effective option for many patients, offering comprehensive care and convenience.   More of Dr. Chelsea Barnes: Chelsea is a licensed Doctor of Physical Therapy in the state of Connecticut. She received her Bachelor of Science Degree from UConn and continued her education at Rutgers University, where she received her Doctorate in Physical Therapy. She is the current founder and owner of “B ON THE MOVE”, a virtual business that provides telehealth services and virtual coaching to individuals all over the world.  Chelsea specializes in outpatient orthopedics and loves to work with runners, weekend warriors, and new moms. After extensive coursework, Chelsea received her certification in Pelvic Floor Rehab through the Herman & Wallace Pelvic Rehabilitation Institute. She is also certified in Trigger Point Dry Needling through the Institute of Advanced Musculoskeletal Treatments.In her free time, Chelsea loves to play with her 7 month old son, Chase, travel, exercise, and spend time with her family & friends   Website Instagram   Connect with me!: Website Instagram Facebook YouTube

Today's we're delving into a topic that's surprisingly common yet often overlooked – diastasis, or abdominal separation. Now, I know what you might be thinking – "Isn't that just a post-pregnancy thing?" Yes, it often is, but it's not exclusively and it isnt always something that just sorts itself out. It's estimated that between 50% and two thirds of all postpartum women experience some degree of abdominal separation. But here's the thing; it's not just about the aesthetics. It's about the deeper impact on your core health and overall well-being.Abdominal separation isn't just about the size of the gap. It's about the coordinated activation (or lack of) of the deeper layers of muscle and fascia that make up your core. When these aren't working together, it can lead to issues beyond just the appearance of your belly. We're talking about core stability, pain management, and overall body function.And here's the twist – the pain from abdominal separation often shows up in other areas like the lower back, hips, or even the neck. It's a ripple effect that can cause discomfort and frustration. But the good news is, there's so much we can do to restore and support the healing process. I want to invite you to join me on a transformative journey. Whether you're a new mum, a not so new mum, or just someone looking to prioritise your core and pelvic floor health, I've got you covered.I'm thrilled to report that my signature  "6 weeks - Transform Your Core" program is returning in September.

In this podcast episode, I delve deeper into the lessons learned during my personal journey of back surgery and recovery. Building on the insights shared in the previous episodes, I focus on the crucial concept of reflexive core stability.I begin by highlighting the misconception that reflexive core control is solely associated with specific exercises, such as chops and lifts. Instead, I shed light on the role of reflexive stability and the fascinating ways our bodies instinctively activate core control.Delving into the definition of stability, as outlined by Punjabi, I explore the factors that contribute to stiffness within the musculoskeletal and fascial systems. I discuss the role of neurological stiffness, particularly its connection to hypermobility and the body's protective response. By understanding the purpose of neurological stiffness, we can approach it with caution, avoiding attempts to break it without addressing the underlying causes.Moving on, I discuss two other forms of stiffness: muscular stiffness and physiological stiffness. Muscular stiffness stems from conscious muscle contractions, such as bracing, while physiological stiffness arises from hypertrophy and the pressure-container effect within the fascia. I highlight the significance of hypertrophied muscles in creating stiffness and the relationship between load, strength, and reflexive stiffness.I further explore the hydraulic amplifier effect, which occurs through intra-abdominal pressure and dynamic alignment of fascial containers. Understanding weight shifts and their impact on maintaining dynamic alignment becomes crucial in harnessing the hydraulic amplifier effect. By incorporating active sensory systems, such as active head and neck movements, active hands, and an awareness of three-dimensional breath, we can tap into reflexive stiffness and optimal core stability.Throughout the episode, I emphasize the importance of finding the right balance of load and resistance in order to connect with and optimize reflexive stiffness. Drawing from my personal experience, I challenge the fear of lifting heavy weights, as it can be instrumental in activating the stabilizers and achieving reflexive core control.Join me on this enlightening episode as we unravel the secrets of reflexive core stability and uncover the transformative power of understanding and harnessing our body's innate abilities for optimal movement and spinal health.Considering the viscera as a source of musculoskeletal pain and dysfunction is a great way to ensure a more true whole body approach to care, however it can be a bit overwhelming on where to start, which is exactly why I created the Visceral Referral Cheat Sheet.
