Episode 223 – When Your Body Has Different Rules

You’re listening to podcasts, following coaches you respect, consuming solid advice. And it doesn’t apply to you. You can’t push intensity the way they recommend. You can’t do high-volume training without your body breaking down. You can’t just “work harder” without consequences. And that can feel really isolating. In this episode, I’m talking about the subset of people whose bodies have different rules, such as people with dysautonomia, chronic illnesses, hypermobility, or just nervous systems that run differently. Most fitness content isn’t made for you, and trying to follow it can not only be frustrating, but detrimental. If you’ve ever felt like you’re doing something wrong because the advice everyone swears by doesn’t work for your body, this episode is for you.

Hi, I'm Dr. Jen Hosler.

I’m a bookworm, science nerd, and coach of all things movement (physical therapist and strength & mobility coach). You can catch me sleeping in & having a slow morning, doing CARs & lifting heavy things, or sipping a glass of wine on my time off.

Through a blend of strength & mobility training, I’ll help you master your movement & build a more resilient body that won’t hold you back from all the activities you love doing.

Have a nagging ache, pain, or injury that just hasn’t gone away? Maybe you’ve tried bouts of physical therapy or chiropractic care without much success. Or maybe you’ve done your own research and rehab with the help of social media, but you still aren’t feeling 100%. That’s where I come in – with my personalized asssessment and 1-on-1 programming, I will tailor a plan specific to your individual needs so you can feel better and tackle your goals.
