Everyone talks about "joint-friendly" workouts — the ones that are supposed to protect your knees, hips, and back. But your joints don't need protected, and this strategy can create more harm long-term.

In this episode, I break down why the term "joint-friendly" is misleading, why most people get stuck in fragility mode, and what you can do instead to build resilient, strong joints without overcomplicating your training. If you've ever felt like your mobility work or "safe" routines aren't actually helping, this episode is for you.
