We’re diving into a question I get all the time as a coach, trainer, and someone who’s worked with thousands of people in pain:

"Should I stop doing this exercise if it hurts?"

We talk pain, movement, injuries, mindset, posture, programming, tendons, recovery—you name it. And most importantly, we challenge the way most people think about pain.

You’ll hear stories from my personal journey of healing from ruptured tendons, broken bones, and all kinds of setbacks.
You’ll also learn about the 7 fundamental human movements every single person should be able to do—and what to do if pain is keeping you from doing them.

This episode is about ownership.
About reclaiming your power and rebuilding confidence in your body, one rep at a time.
Because pain doesn’t mean you’re broken. It might actually be your body asking for your attention.

Pain is not the end of the story. It’s the beginning of your comeback.

So whether you’re a fitness newbie, a weekend warrior, or someone who’s been struggling with chronic pain for years—this episode is a must-listen.

Let’s roll it back to one of the most important conversations we’ve ever had on this show.
Here’s your Throwback Thursday:
“Should You Avoid Exercises If They Hurt? An Overview of Pain” — let’s dive in.
