Have you been told "the best thing for EDS/hypermobility is to get strong" - but then nobody told you how actually start?

Or maybe you've started up already but you keep getting hurt/flared up each time you try.

To be clear, I'm not saying that everyone with EDS will experience difficulty when starting out with strength training, but if you DO then this podcast is for you!

This is the approach I have used with clients before with great success! Let's get you strong WITHOUT flaring you up!
