Episode Description from the Publisher

In this panel episode of Stronger, Don Saladino sits down with Dr. Jordan Shallow, Dr. Jordan Jiunta, and Dr. Charlie Weingroff to rethink the way we approach injury, pain, rehabilitation, and recovery. Each guest begins by sharing a personal injury that changed the way they think about training. From Charlie's experience with severe back pain and nearly undergoing spine surgery, to Jordan Jiunta's spinal fracture and Jordan Shallow's torn pec, their stories reveal how setbacks can change the way you understand the bod.  The conversation then gets practical: What should you do when rehab isn't producing lasting results? How important is progressive loading? When should you stop relying on passive treatments? And how can you continue training while working around an injury? The panel emphasizes education, active rehabilitation, appropriate progression, and finding ways to keep moving forward rather than becoming dependent on endless treatments. Don, Jordan, Jordan, and Charlie also challenge some common assumptions around stretching, exercise selection, training volume, and what it means to "protect" an injured body.  ----------------------------- Sponsored By: Timeline / Mitopure: Get 20% off Mitopure to Target Age-Related Cellular Decline and Promote Anti-Aging and Health Longevity.
