You do not need to stop training because of pain.

You need better adjustments.

Keep the work hard.
Keep the pain low.
Keep momentum moving forward.

My calendar is open for free consultations for a limited time.

If you’re interested in 1-on-1 support and a personalized training/rehab program, shoot me a message.

A look back at the first two years of my running journey (2023 & 2024).

I went from rarely ever running 2-3 miles at a time, to completing the NYC marathon, a 40-mile trail ultramarathon, and countless MASSIVE efforts in the mountains with friends (including a double skyline traverse).

Running has changed my life.

And I truly think it is something that will help to change the trajectory of my life in the long term.

It has become an important part of my daily routine and serves as a container for alone time, a chance to digest my thoughts, and an opportunity to do hard things.

It has given me amazing memories with friends and helped me make many new friends.

I never want to lose the ability to enjoy running the way I do now.

Over the years

I’ve learned my role as a trainer/physio,

Is less about being a coach (telling you what to do) and more about being a guide (helping you understand how to do it).

In truth, it’s a mix of both and it varies, depending on where in the rehab journey you’re at.

Early on, clear instructions are key…

giving you structure and quieting the noise. But as consistency builds, something shifts.

New patterns emerge, and suddenly it’s less about “just doing” and more about understanding why and how.

This is where meaningful change happens. It’s not just me telling you what to do.

We’re collaborating, ideally. I’m validating and redirecting your choices.

Offering new perspectives. Distilling options into actionable steps that make sense for you.

Over time, clients start reflecting on their own progress, finding solutions, and even telling me what we should do next.

That’s when I know they’re in control of their progress, their goals, and their decisions.

Sometimes, this leads to being completely pain-free. Other times, pain is still there, but it’s no longer in charge.

It becomes a background hum, not a dominating force.

These clients don’t just move beyond pain.

They learn how to think beyond it.
How to live beyond it.

And to me, that’s the ultimate goal.

A lot of responses to these stories, so I’m reposting them to the feed.

One response I got was:

“If you call it fitness there is no objective, but if you call it training there needs to be a goal.”

“Working out for working out is not scalable.”
-

I agree that training for a specific goal can look/feel different than just working out for the sake of working out.   The PROBLEM is that we automatically view one of them (“training”) as better than the other (“working out”).

Herein lies the problem…

Neither are universally better or worse. This is a made up “rule” that has threaded its way into the fabric of the fitness industry.

IMO the best set-up is to be okay with both, in different seasons of life.

Some months you’re dialed in, training to achieve.

Other months, you couldn’t be bothered, just working out to sweat and get a pump.

And some months it’s like pulling teeth to get a few sessions in per week.

IT’S OKAY.

We (humans) often make these worse by applying unjustified meaning (“bad”) and getting too many emotions involved (guilt).

Stop trying to solve the problem.

Learn to move WITH the problem.

Eventually you’ll move beyond it and get back to a place where you’re motivated and getting after it.

You can find pretty good training or rehab programs with a Google search or a well-written ChatGPT prompt.

You can get quality manual therapy and (sometimes) quality exercise prescription from traditional physical therapy.

Chances are you’ve done both… yet here you are, still waking up stiff and cranky.

Still scared to train hard.

Still wondering if you’re just going to be stuck like this forever.

It’s not just about the exercises or the training…

That’s why Mariel and I worked together to problem solve, progress appropriately and manage flare-ups as they came.

That’s why she’s squatting and deadlifting more than her body weight and running a HALF marathon without pain.

If you keep trying what you’ve always tried, you’ll keep getting the same results.

I’m opening up a few spots for 1:1 beyond pain coaching and programming in a few weeks.

DM or comment WAITLIST and you’ll be the first to know, and get a few free tips/tricks in the meantime time.

One thing research has shown pretty consistently with persistent low back pain is this: getting stronger tends to help.

Nobody is saying that strength magically eliminates pain.

A stronger body is simply better at handling daily life…

Lifting, carrying, sitting, standing, training… all of it becomes easier when you have more capacity.

Being stronger does not mean ignoring pain or pushing through everything.

More strength comes from gradually building tolerance and confidence so your body is less reactive over time.

If pain is present either way, being stronger usually puts you in a better spot than being weaker.

And for many people, that strength ends up turning the volume down on pain in the long run.

Wrist (or elbow) pain during front squats?

Try using straps instead… or, if your gym has a safety squat bar use that.

Most SSB have a slight angle (camber) in the bar which means the weight is technically front loaded.

Hope this helps!
