“You’re not going to change anyone’s mind like that…” - Doubters

I don’t want to change anyone’s mind. I want to validate the beliefs of people who know there is more to their problem, and more to the life they’re capable of living than the medical system or the fitness industry are offering.

Pain ends when you reclaim the life it interrupted. It’s neither mental, emotional, or physical. It’s all of them, and it’s all of them together.

These problems are so common, so real, and so hard to overcome.

This is why I’ve decided to live with the assumption that everyone is trying their best, and to do my best to meet everyone where they are.

My first core value is to live a life I’m inspired by. My second is to reveal the exceptional in everyone I come across.

I’m yet to meet anyone who doesn’t have any exceptional in them at all.

If doctors were paid like fitness professionals no one would ever become a doctor.

If we want to elevate the fitness industry we need to make it harder to become a fitness professional, and we need to create and environment where pay matches the difficulty to qualify for the job.

If your shoulder hurts when your arm is over your head, and no shoulder correctives have worked, consider your thoracic spine…

For your shoulder to flex fully, your thoracic spine needs to rotate and extend. Often times the thoracic spine struggles to do both of these movements.

If you can identify which one you can improve it.

The best way to identify is to force range of motion in the thoracics, gently, and then retest the shoulder flexion.

If shoulder flexion improves, it’s likely you need more of whatever kind of range of motion you just gently added.

Sometimes you just have to believe that you’re capable of more than the mob thinks you are.

We call this kind of a workout a “performance care segment” (PCS).

They typically take 15-20 minutes, they’re difficult to do, and they leave you feeling fresher than when you started.

We need to level up the education standard.

Include mandatory apprenticeship.

Pass a difficult test.

It should take time and a lot of effort to become a fitness pro. No exceptions.

This guy is an example of strength. The way he talks about the true nature of his problem is inspiring to me.

Too often experts undercharge, and as a result underperform.

This week an electrician made a house call for me. I’m a liability when it comes to home repairs.

When my wife asked him “how much” (after he had done the work), he said “$175”. To which she replied “ok” and grabbed the checkbook.

He interrupted her to say he was just kidding, it’s only $75, but if she leaves a review for him it’s only $50.

To that electrician…

Your new price should be $175. You got a yes from your ideal client. Someone who is paying you, happily, to solve a problem that they don’t have the expertise to solve, and would rather spend the money than the time to acquire the expertise.

My wife told him she would pay the $75 he costs, and will leave a review.

I don’t know you and I don’t know the electrician, but what I do know is this…

Expertise has a price. There’s a price to acquire it, and there’s a price to access it. Without that price the expertise is unsustainable to maintain, to serve with, and to experience frictionless solutions to the problems for which we hire it.

The ribs move when the spine moves…

In order to comfortably press overhead your thoracic spine will extend mildly.

When the spine extends mildly, the ribs will rotate externally and expand relative to their neutral resting position. If we cue the ribs to stay down, we’re asking the thoracic spine to stay perfectly stacked.

This inhibits shoulder flexion as it approaches end range.

This is why I dislike the cue “ribs down”, it’s too reductive.

Hyper extension of the thoracic and or lumbar spine is undesirable. Some extension of the thoracic spine is necessary.

A good coach can spot the difference, and cue it.
