We are talking physical therapy and how the body works this week!

Dan McGurren is a physical therapist in Tempe, AZ. He graduated from Saint Louis University in 2016 and earned his board specialty in orthopedic physical therapy and sports physical therapy in 2020 and 2022 respectively. He sees a variety of patients but mostly focuses on lower extremity athletes including post-operative care for knee and ankle surgeries, tendinopathies, and return to sport specifics. He also happens to be our fave runner, Run Hol Run's fiancé!

You have seen the viral HEROBOARD machine on social media, now you are getting an inside look from Tina Provensano

Of course HEROBOARD is great for pilates, but Tina and I dive into all of the other formats that could benefit from a little bit of innovation!

Tina also created the coolest fitness studio in Garden City, ID that I am dying to get to one day. CULTURE. is more than a gym. It’s a space designed for people who want more from their workout experience — more energy, more connection, and a stronger sense of belonging.

I love taking classes when I travel, because I meet the greatest people. I met this week's guest when I was in LA last year, and found a cycling spot on ClassPass. Just goes to show that you can meet the best people by putting out into the world what you want to get back. (shoutout Caitlyn for that mantra at the end of this week's ep!)

You can ride with Caitlyn at the Purple Pedal in Fullerton, CA!

Strength has no size limit. This week we have BODYBAR Pilates instructor Evelyn on the pod to talk about how size, skin color, financial status all do not matter when it comes to movement.

Evelyn has become an absolute powerhouse AND a safe space on the schedule at the BODYBAR Chicago locations. I am taking her class after this episode airs, so wish me luck!
