184. Stop Moving Like A Dead Person! Problems With Modern PT Rehab, Understanding Your 3 Power Regions, The Trilogy of Vitality - Matthew LaBosco

1 hour 14 minutes

Our current healthcare system is not designed to create vitality for us. The foundation and principles are focused on keeping us alive and making sure we survive. Although it has proven to be capable of keeping us alive, it does so at a high price, both financially and by creating dependency on it.

Blessed to have Matt LaBosco on the podcast today who has over 20 years experience as a personal trainer, corrective movement specialist, bodyworker, teacher, instructor, and performance life coach.

Matt is probably one of the best movement and corrective practitioners I know, because he's been injured more than anyone else I know (lol). In all seriousness, his injuries, setbacks and watching his arm go numb after pressing 315 lbs over his head, forced him to keep asking, "Why?" When no one knew the answer, he kept pressing forward until he was able to figure out the systems and mechanics that answer that question. He brings all of this knowledge on to our show and into his latest book Health to Vitality.

This book outlines how to liberate yourself from the shackles of traditional health care and empower yourself to create a life of vitality and fulfillment

In this episode we dive into how to:

Avoid unnecessary orthopedic surgeries.
Break your dependency on pain killers and other medications.
Align your mindset with your biology.
Use stress to your advantage.
