Rehab often fails — not because people aren’t trying, but because the system isn’t built to support long-term recovery. In this episode, I share my own rehab struggles, why chronic injuries are so poorly treated, and how to advocate for yourself in a medical system that often overlooks context.

I walk through two Achilles rehab stories that show why strength training, appropriate loading, and individualization matter. We touch on pain, biomechanics, mental health, and why walking is more powerful than you think.

This episode is about what real rehab looks like — collaborative, patient, and tailored to the person, not just the injury.
