Send us Fan MailIn this episode of the FitMitTuro Fitness Podcast, I'm joined by strength coach and educator Heike Yates, who specializes in helping women stay strong, mobile and confident after 50.Many women believe that aging means slowing down, losing strength and accepting physical limitations. But the truth is the opposite: the years after 40 and 50 are exactly when strength training becomes most important.In this conversation, Heike and I talk about what actually happens in the body as we age — from hormonal changes to muscle loss — and what women can do to stay strong, active and independent for decades to come.We also discuss the mindset shifts many women need to make in midlife, why mobility and strength go hand in hand, and how small consistent habits are far more powerful than extreme fitness plans.If you want to feel strong, capable and confident as you get older, this episode will give you practical insights you can start using immediately.In this episode we discuss:• Why women naturally lose muscle after 40 and how to prevent it • The role of strength training in healthy aging • How mobility and strength work together • Why many women stop training too early • Mindset, confidence and body image after 50 • Simple habits that help women stay active and independentHeike's work focuses on realistic, sustainable fitness — not quick fixes — and helping women build strength that supports them for life.Connect with Heike YatesWebsite: https://heikeyates.com/ Podcast: https://heikeyates.com/category/podcast/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/heikeyatesConnect with Turo in Instagram @personaltrainer_turoIf you enjoy the podcast, please share this episode with someone who could benefit from it.Thank you for listening!

All clinicians know the challenge and opportunity that comes with tailoring clinical decisions to the person in front of you. While it's helpful to have clinical practice guidelines to give you a starting point and to reduce unwarranted variation in practice, of course every patient is different! Today, Dr Trevor Lentz (Duke University) explains the concept of clinical phenotyping, which is another way of identifying patterns in your clinical practice, and guiding your clinical decisions. Clinical phenotyping has been suggested as a way of tailoring musculoskeletal care in practice, although its implementation in practice has been patchy - Dr Lentz explains some of the reasons why. ------------------------------ RESOURCES Psychological phenotyping in osteoarthritis: https://www.jospt.org/doi/10.2519/josptopen.2025.0177 OSPRO yellow flags tool: https://www.jospt.org/doi/10.2519/jospt.2016.6487 Clinical framework for screening yellow flags: https://www.jospt.org/doi/10.2519/jospt.2021.10570 STarT MSK research programme review: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/37490570/

Today's episode takes us into a sweeping science-fiction universe shaped not just by imagination, but by real-world experience in medicine, travel, and the fragility of the human body. My guest is Nicholas Keating Casbarro, author of the novel Vitalerium: Descent into the Void. Born in Providence in 1990, Nicholas trained as a Doctor of Physical Therapy at Northeastern University and spent years working in wound healing, burn care, and regenerative medicine—traveling constantly to hospitals and burn centers across the country. Somewhere between flights over the Rockies and late-night layovers, that experience evolved into an ambitious science-fiction saga: a planned seven-book series following Roman Matthews across a planet called Deorum, where the glittering city of Kairus sits beside the most powerful energy source in the galaxy—the Vital Fracture. It's a world of beauty, hierarchy, power, and danger- and today we're diving into how it all came to life.

Physical therapy clinics don't struggle because they lack skill. They struggle because they lack attention.In this episode of PT Breakfast Club, Jimmy McKay and Tony Maritato explore how PT clinic owners can rethink marketing using lessons from unexpected places — viral videos, restaurant chains, and real-world business strategy.Instead of chasing trends or expensive advertising, the conversation focuses on creating authentic attention through simple ideas, repeatable content, and engaging storytelling.They also dig into leadership inside PT clinics — including how to hire the right people, how culture impacts performance, and why insecure leadership can quietly destroy organizations.The result is a practical conversation about how clinics can grow without complicated marketing systems.Key Topics DiscussedWhy one-star reviews can actually help credibilityThe marketing strategy behind Wendy's viral campaignsWhy authenticity beats polished marketingHow small clinics can win attention faster than large companiesTurning patients and staff into authentic content creatorsThe “content hackathon” strategy for clinicsWhy most physical therapists misunderstand marketingHiring people who take initiativeThe hidden cost of insecure leadershipGuest Links & ResourcesTony Maritato YouTube: Total Therapy SolutionsDave Kittle Website: ConciergePainRelief.com YouTube: The Dave Kittle ShowSponsorsSupport for PT Pintcast comes from:SaRA Health – AI-powered patient engagement for rehab practices EMPOWER EMR – Built for modern rehab clinics U.S. Physical Therapy

Private practice physical therapy owners: learn the KPIs that drive clinic growth, PT marketing ROI, and revenue forecasting. This MBA for the DPT lesson shows PT clinic owners how to track leads, visits per case, and key business metrics that predict success.Most physical therapists open a clinic without ever learning how to read the business numbers behind it.In this **MBA for the DPT** episode, Jimmy talks with **Sturdy McKee** about the key performance indicators (KPIs) that successful physical therapy clinic owners use to run smarter businesses.You'll learn which numbers actually matter, how to build a simple KPI dashboard, and why one overlooked metric — **leads** — can predict your clinic's revenue 30–60 days ahead.Sturdy also explains how to translate data into action so your staff understands what drives results, improves patient outcomes, and creates a healthier practice.If you run a **private practice physical therapy clinic**, this episode will help you stop guessing and start managing with clarity.00:00 KPI Basics For PT Owners03:12 Why KPIs Matter In Clinics09:45 Building A KPI Dashboard16:30 Personnel Vs Overhead Costs23:40 Predicting Revenue With Leads31:10 KPI Mistakes Clinic Owners Make38:20 Translating Data To Staff45:10 How Often To Review Metrics51:00 The KPI That Surprised Me58:40 Connecting Numbers To OutcomesGuest: Sturdy McKeehttps://sturdycoaching.comQuestion for clinic owners:Which KPI has helped you make the biggest business decision in your practice?

In this episode of the Unreal Results podcast, I walk through a recent clinical case of mine involving a Navy SEAL BUD/S candidate who came in with persistent “back pain.” Once he pointed more specifically to the sacrum, the case immediately changed direction and led us down a very different path involving visceral drivers, kidney irritation, and neurovascular patterns.I share how location-specific questioning, structured assessment, and developing a strong index of suspicion can uncover connections between the viscera, nervous system, and musculoskeletal system that are easy to miss.In this episode, you'll hear:• Why sacral pain should immediately shift your clinical questioning• How kidney and urogenital organ irritation can refer pain to the sacrum and knee• How tools like the LTAP® fit into broader clinical reasoning and assessment• Why asking the right questions can completely change the direction of treatmentIf you're a health or movement professional interested in improving your diagnostic thinking and getting better outcomes with complex cases, this episode will help you refine how you assess presentations that don't follow the usual patterns.Resources & Links Mentioned In This Episode:Ep. 45: The Kidneys - Visceral Connections To MovementEp. 49: Pain On The SacrumEp. 147: Why Expectations Shape Clinical OutcomesKidney Regen SessionLearn the LTAP® In-Person in one of my upcoming courses

Your brain has two jobs when you're injured: keep you safe and keep you functional. So it finds a workaround. It automates it. And it keeps running it — long after the injury is gone.Sound familiar? In part two of Move for Your Brain, Amy and Marian Barnick explore how movement compensations work exactly like thought habits — locked in by the brain, running on autopilot, and quietly working against you until you learn to see them.If you've ever wondered why your knee still aches years after an old injury, why your shoulder never quite came back after surgery, or why you move differently on one side than the other — this episode explains what's actually happening. And more importantly, what to do about it.What You'll LearnHow the brain automates movement compensations — and why it never lets them go on its ownWhy treating the symptom (the pain) without retraining the brain never fully worksThe parallel between movement habits and thought habits — and why both require the same approach to changeWhat Marian's Kinetic Stacking Method is and how it breaks compensation cyclesThe Lindsey Vonn discussion: what a torn ACL after a knee replacement reveals about automated neural patternsWhen to see a physiotherapist vs. a kinesiologist — and why you often need bothWhat to Listen For[0:00]  Your brain wins always[1:53]  Menopause weight gain and movement compensations[3:51]  How babies learn to move: the kinesiological blueprint for healing[5:19]  "Your brain has two jobs: keep you safe and keep you functional"[7:47]  The RESTORED Protocol and the exercise factor[8:09]  Physio vs. kinesiologist: who does what and when[10:16]  Lindsey Vonn injury discussion[11:44]  Automated movement in elite athletes — the neural pathway explanation[14:28]  "The muscles are just the worker bees"Resources Mentioned• Thoughts Are Habits Too by Amy Lang: [link]• RESTORED Protocol (free guide): moxie-club.com/restored• Marian Barnick's free lower body mobility guide: [Marian's link]• Part 1 of this series: Episode [###]RESOURCES: Book a FREE Discovery Call with Amy Order Amy's book Thoughts Are Habits Too: Master Your Triggers, Free Yourself From Diet Culture, and Rediscover Joyful Eating.

Dismal prediction that, by 2050, 60% of women will suffer from cardiovascular disease; Yes, it's true that childhood and adolescent obesity, once rare, is now soaring; Treatments for osteopenia; Dentists continue to write prescriptions for potentially deadly antibiotic; A man, in love with his Chatbot, commits suicide to join her in the virtual world; Olive oil is calorie dense—but its consumption results in weight loss; Can “bio-regulator peptides” stave off kidney failure?

We are in Week 2 of a 4-part series on Unintentional Deaths from Accidents, which are the third-leading cause of death in America.  This week, we focus on the category of ”Poisoning" deaths, of which about 80% are Opioid Overdoses.  In this episode, we talk about:—Why Dr. Prather calls Opioid addiction "a manufactured crisis" which was "fueled by the medical profession".—The horrifying story of the Big Pharma family behind the Opioid addiction crisis in America.  And how "they knew exactly" what they were doing because their own studies correctly predicted the deaths that would come from their Opioids.—How Opioids actually increase pain due to the damage to the body's own natural Opioid production and Opioid receptors.   And how Opioids will create pain in your body, even if you didn't have pain before.—Why Structure-Function Care helps reduce deaths from Opioids by healing the root cause of the pain through Chiropractic, Acupuncture, Physical Therapy, and Physiotherapies. —The role of Acupuncture in healing the body's natural Opioid receptors and helping to break the addiction of Opioids. —How Auriculotherapy (Ear Acupuncture) actually helps to heal the brain's pain patterns and is also "amazing" for any kind of addiction. —Why Structure-Function Care is so helpful and effective for severe Opioid withdrawal symptoms.—The importance of Chiropractic in balancing out the nervous system, both in helping with pain relief and in healing the body from Opioid addiction. —The Diathermy treatment at Holistic Integration that provides a gentle detoxification and can help reduce nausea and pain from Opioid detox.—How Homeopathy can help counteract all side-effects of any poison, including Prescription Medicines.  And the natural Herbals that work even better than dangerous pharmaceuticals to provide pain relief.http://www.TheVoiceOfHealthRadio.com*Receive exclusive bonus content as a member of our Voice Of Health Patreon Community:https://www.patreon.com/cw/VoiceofHealthPodcast

Most physical therapy clinics market the wrong thing.They promote visits, treatments, and techniques — but patients don't actually want those things. What they want is the outcome: getting back to running, lifting, sports, or living pain-free.In this episode, Jimmy McKay and Dave Kittle explore how PT clinic owners can shift from transactional care to transformation-based care.Drawing insights from thinkers like Seth Godin, Gary Vee, Rory Sutherland, Chris Voss, and Chris Do, they explain how better positioning, marketing, and communication can turn a one-time patient into a long-term relationship.They also discuss why selling programs beats selling packages, why vanity metrics like social media views don't build clinics, and how the first phone call with a patient may determine whether they ever become a client.If you're a clinic owner trying to grow revenue, improve patient engagement, and create a stronger brand, this episode will change how you think about your business.What You'll Learn• Why patients buy outcomes — not treatments• How to position your clinic as a transformation machine• Why social media views don't equal patients• How to turn a $10K client into a $70K lifetime relationship• The difference between selling programs vs packages• Why the first phone call determines patient conversions• The importance of asking better intake questionsGuests & ResourcesDave KittleWebsite: https://conciergepainrelief.comYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@thedavekittleshow/featuredTony MaritatoYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/MedicareBillingSponsorsSaRA Health — https://sarahealth.comEMPOWER EMR — https://empoweremr.comU.S. Physical Therapy — https://usph.com

What if the reason you're still leaking, feeling heaviness, or struggling postpartum isn't because you're broken but because no one ever taught you how to truly heal? So many women don't hear the words pelvic floor until after they've given birth when they're already dealing with incontinence, prolapse, pain with intimacy, or a body that feels unfamiliar and disconnected. In this episode, Cait sits down with Jessica London, Doctor of Physical Therapy and founder of Your Postpartum PT, to unpack what pelvic floor health actually is and why "just do Kegels" is outdated advice. Jessica shares why pelvic floor healing is about so much more than strengthening a muscle. It's about nervous system regulation, stress management, shame release, and whole-body recovery. They explore how birth (whether vaginal or C-section) impacts the body, why one in three women experience pelvic floor dysfunction, and how ambitious, high-achieving moms often struggle the most with slowing down enough to truly heal. Tune in to hear: What the pelvic floor actually is (in simple, clear terms) Why Kegels alone are not the solution The surprising connection between your jaw, stress levels, and pelvic floor tension Why birth is "physiologically normal" but still requires real rehabilitation How nervous system dysregulation impacts healing Why shame keeps so many women silent — and how to dissolve it What true postpartum recovery should look like Why virtual pelvic floor therapy can lead to faster, more consistent results   Connect with Jessica: Instagram: @yourpostpartumpt Jessica's podcast: What About Mom?   If this episode resonates with you, don't forget to share it to your stories and tag @themillionairemother, or leave a 5-star rating and review on Apple Podcasts-it helps more mamas find this show.

You've been told perfect form prevents injury and rounding your back will ruin your spine. But what if the real problem isn't the movement? What if it's fear, outdated advice, and expecting your body to heal like it's Amazon Prime two-day shipping?  We dive deeper into this in the latest episode of the Broads Podcast with strength coach Dr. Susie Spirlock.  We also chat about why “perfect form” doesn't exist, how to return to lifting after injury or chronic conditions like POTS and hypermobility, and why strength training is non-negotiable for women heading into perimenopause and beyond.  Dr. Susie Spirlock is a Doctor of Physical Therapy and strength coach with a Bachelor of Science in Exercise Science. She is Barbell Rehab Method certified, Precision Nutrition Level 1 certified, and a Pain Free Performance Specialist.

Send a textWhat happens when a movement-first profession steps into a simulation lab built for physiology and decision-making under pressure? We sit down with Denise Romano, an assistant professor leading physical therapy simulation at Binghamton University, to unpack how PT learners can safely practice high-stakes mobility long before they enter acute care. From AFib in the ICU to COPD patients whose vitals shift during transfers, Denise maps out realistic scenarios that force students to balance safety, lines and tubes, and evolving clinical data while communicating clearly as a team.We walk through a full landscape of PT-focused simulations: early infection control adapted from nursing with Glow Germ, mobility checkoffs in hospital-like spaces, ventilator cases requiring careful progression, and standardized patient interviews for differential diagnosis. Denise explains why PT relies heavily on SPs for authentic movement, where mannequins still shine for physiologic fidelity, and how thoughtful debriefs convert messy moments into durable clinical judgment. Her use of entrustability scales tied to EPAs gives faculty a shared framework to chart each learner's path from novice to entry-ready clinician, with formative feedback that guides safer practice.The conversation also tackles the big barrier: unlike nursing, PT lacks the large-scale evidence to replace a portion of clinical hours with simulation. Denise makes a compelling case for a multi-site study to unlock that recognition, particularly as acute care placements tighten and risk tolerance narrows. She also shares a favorite classroom memory that turned a tangled SCD mistake into a lifelong safety cue, highlighting why simulated missteps are often the most memorable teachers. If you care about physical therapy education, clinical placements, competency assessment, or the future of healthcare simulation, you'll leave with concrete ideas and renewed urgency to give PT a stronger seat at the table.Subscribe for more conversations on simulation, clinical education, and the skills that move patient care forward.

In this episode of the Unreal Results podcast, I explore the anatomy and clinical significance of the popliteus — the small, often overlooked muscle that unlocks the knee and why it may be a missing link in lateral knee pain, shin splints, post-surgical inhibition, and chronic joint irritation. I share reflections from my own ACL-deficient knee during an 8 week plyometric intensive and how restoring dynamic confidence changed not just my performance, but my joint symptoms. We'll also explore how the popliteus interfaces with the fibula, meniscus, joint capsule, and even the SI joint and why treating it in isolation rarely creates lasting change.In this episode, you'll learn:Why the popliteus is central to unlocking knee flexion in closed-chain movementWhy this muscle becomes hypertonic after injury and why releasing it isn't enoughHow posterior capsule, fibular motion, and meniscal connections influence knee painPractical ways to combine manual therapy and yielding plyometrics for better outcomesIf you've ever wondered why the popliteus keeps “tightening back up,” this episode will help you understand what it's protecting and how to work with it instead of against it.Resources & Links Mentioned In This Episode:Ep. 8: Unlocking The FibulaEp. 21: Easily Restore Knee Extension After Injury or SurgeryEp. 25: The Peripheral HeartEp. 78: Easily Restore Knee Flexion After Injury or SurgeryEp. 79: The Deeper Impact of Plyometrics w/ Matt McInnes WatsonEp. 138: The Link Between Potassium and Shin SplintsSquat Warmup VideoTutorial to Improve Knee Flexion VideoBook I Mentioned: New Manual Articular Approach: Lower Extremity by Jean-Pierre Barral & Alain CroibierSign Up For A Barral Institute Course (Tell them Anna Hartman sent you!)Learn the LTAP® In-Person in one of my upcoming coursesConsidering 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.

In this powerful conversation, Jill shares how fracturing her ankle during her college basketball career shifted her path from veterinary medicine to becoming a leader in physical therapy and founder of a four-clinic practice in Michigan. She challenges the outdated belief that physical therapy is only for injuries, positioning it instead as a proactive, performance-driven, and preventative cornerstone of healthcare. The discussion explores direct access laws in Michigan, the limitations of insurance-driven care, and why physical therapists should be musculoskeletal “quarterbacks” for long-term wellness. Jill dives deep into neuro pain science, explaining how pain is processed in the brain, why tissue healing doesn't always equal pain relief, and how belief, mindset, and emotional processing impact recovery. The conversation expands into posture dysfunction from modern sitting habits, stabilizing the neck and spine, inflammation, omega balance, nutrition as a foundation for healing, and the future of collaborative, experience-driven healthcare. Ultimately, this episode reframes physical therapy as a powerful preventative tool, blending science, mindset, nutrition, and human connection to optimize performance and longevity.#MusculoskeletalHealth#RehabToPerformance#HealthOptimization#Longevity#FunctionalWellness

In this episode of Get Back To It, Dr. Rita Roy speaks with Rich Rabin, a technology and product leader whose life was upended by severe nerve pain caused by an L5–S1 disc herniation. What began as manageable glute pain progressed into debilitating nerve symptoms that affected his sleep, mobility, and overall quality of life. After months of conservative treatments—including physical therapy and injections—Rich ultimately underwent a microdiscectomy to relieve nerve compression.While surgery addressed the primary issue, recovery proved gradual and unpredictable. Rich shares candidly about the mental and emotional challenges of healing, the importance of self-advocacy, and learning that spine recovery is rarely linear.Inspired by his own frustration tracking fluctuating symptoms, Rich created Recoverly, a free iPhone app designed to help patients log daily symptoms and identify trends—supporting clearer communication with healthcare providers.Rich's story is a powerful reminder that healing takes patience; progress isn't always steady, and resilience can grow from even the most difficult setbacks.Support the show

Manual therapy is one of those topics that seems to quickly descend to polarised debates in musculoskeletal rehabilitation. Today, we're talking about what manual therapy looks like and does in the 2020s. Dr Jodi Young explains the mechanisms of manual therapy, the typical effects and why you might think about adding manual therapy as another tool in your physical therapy toolkit. Dr Young is the Director of Research for the Doctor of Science in Physical Therapy program at Bellin College in Green Bay, Wisconsin, where she mentors doctoral clinicians and helps turn clinical and educational research questions into meaningful, publishable research. She is also a fellow of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Manual Physical Therapists. ------------------------------ RESOURCES Modern definition and description of manual therapy: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38457654/ Modern way to teach and practice manual therapy: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38773515/ Living review of manual therapy mechanisms: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40100908/ Unravelling the mechanisms of manual therapy: https://www.jospt.org/doi/10.2519/jospt.2018.7476 Developing manual therapy frameworks: https://www.jospt.org/doi/10.2519/josptopen.2023.0002 Integrating person-centred concepts and modern manual therapy: https://www.jospt.org/doi/full/10.2519/josptopen.2023.0812 How do patients believe manual therapy works? https://www.jospt.org/doi/10.2519/josptopen.2025.0149 Does it matter how you apply spinal manipulation?

In this Curve Convo episode of Ahead of the Curve, I'm joined by Kerry Green to talk about something that doesn't get discussed enough in scoliosis care: identity. Specifically, how the beliefs you hold about your curve, your diagnosis, and your ability to heal can shape your experience of pain and progress.We explore how early messages from doctors or authority figures can stick with you for years, why hypervigilance can feel protective but actually slow healing, and how optimism isn't just “positive thinking” but a powerful nervous system shift.We also answer listener questions about pillows for side sleepers, stomach sleeping, and whether cold weather makes scoliosis pain worse.In This Episode You'll Hear:• How identifying strongly with your diagnosis can impact pain and healing• Why hypervigilance may feel safe but can keep your body stuck• Practical ways to begin shifting limiting beliefs about scoliosis• How to approach sleep position and pillow support with scoliosisIf you've ever felt discouraged, defined by your curve, or unsure how to move forward, this episode will help you feel more empowered and capable in your healing journey.Links & Resources For This Episode:Connect with Kerry on InstagramSchedule a Discovery Call w/ MeghanMy Virtual Scoliosis Coaching ServicesMy WebsiteFREE At-Home Exercises For Scoliosis

Why Progressive Overload Is the Missing Link in Rehab with Dr. Todd RiddleThere's a big difference between learning a technique…and understanding a system.In today's episode, we're pulling back the curtain on the FAKTR rehab methodology — not the marketing version, not the surface-level explanation — but the actual framework that drives how we assess, load, and progress patients.In Part 1 of this two-part series, Dr. Todd Riddle — our Director of Education — breaks down:The evolution of FAKTR from technique-based roots to a full rehabilitation continuumWhy progressive overload is the missing link in most rehab programsThe difference between treating a condition… and treating a personAnd how static, motion, resistance, function, and performance fit together inside the FAKTR systemYou'll also hear why we believe pain during exercise isn't automatically the enemy — and how to clinically differentiate between “injured” and simply “sensitive.”If you've taken a FAKTR course before, this will deepen your understanding.If you haven't, this will give you a behind-the-scenes look at how the system actually works.

Today's guest is Zac Cupples, PT, DPT, OCS, CSCS, a physical therapist and strength coach known for bridging rehabilitation and performance. He's the founder of ZacCupples.com and is respected for translating complex concepts around respiration and movement mechanics into practical tools coaches and clinicians can immediately apply to improve efficiency, reduce pain, and enhance performance. The bridge between sports performance rehab is an important one. In the midst of movement mechanics that drive good rehab, and high intensity lifting, lies the knowledge that can help athletes make continual gains while staying robust and healthy for their sport. On today's show, Zac explores how an athlete's structure influences movement, strength training, and even injury risk. He shares his track background and how it shaped his coaching, then unpacks concepts like narrow vs. wide “ISA” builds, why some athletes struggle to feel their hamstrings in traditional lifts, and how tools like front loading, box squats, machines, and sprinting can solve it. He also digs into long-duration isometrics, mobility vs. flexibility, and finishes with a fun lightning round. Today's episode is brought to you by Hammer Strength.

"It assumes everyone has the same body but no two people are going to perform both of those movements the same way, and it's not going to load the same way." "I start the majority of people with a box squat, because the way I think about a hinge is it's different from a squat because the hips are going to be moving more along that horizontal path." "It's way more useful to think, am I moving up and down? Am I moving side to side? And then just pick exercises within what a person has available." "If someone can't produce certain rotations, and I know that you need those rotations to do this movement, you probably got to find something else to train that pattern within their constraints." "You just have to find the hinge variation that they can execute. And if they don't have much to do that, you have to create constraints." About Zac Cupples Zac Cupples, PT, DPT, OCS, CSCS is a physical therapist, strength coach, and educator specializing in human movement, respiration, and performance optimization. He is the founder of ZacCupples.com and has become widely known for translating complex biomechanical and neurophysiological concepts into practical strategies that clinicians and coaches can immediately apply. Zac earned his Doctorate in Physical Therapy from Marquette University and is board certified as an Orthopedic Clinical Specialist. He has completed extensive post-graduate education through the Postural Restoration Institute (PRI) and integrates principles of respiration, pelvic mechanics, thoracic positioning, and neuromuscular control into both rehabilitation and performance training. Through his online courses, seminars, and educational content, Zac has influenced thousands of clinicians and coaches worldwide. His work bridges the gap between rehab and high performance, helping athletes move more efficiently, reduce pain, and unlock higher levels of strength and speed through better positional awareness and strategic breathing.
