In this episode, I’m joined by Jeremy “Opie” Lade—Paralympian, Hall of Fame athlete, and longtime leader in adaptive sports—to talk about the importance of fitness after a spinal cord injury. We talk about how fitness and adaptive sports can shape life after injury, from physical health to confidence, identity, and community. Opie also shares why movement matters at every level—whether you’re chasing elite competition or simply looking to stay active—and how adaptive sports can open doors long after rehab ends.
