Eps 408: How to Stay Strong and Pain-Free as You Age with Eileen Kopsaftis
If you’ve been brushing off the aches and stiffness as “just aging”… pause and listen to this.
I’m joined by Eileen Kopsaftis, a chronic pain and movement expert with over 30 years of experience helping people get out of pain and move well again. We talk about why muscle loss isn’t actually about age, why your pain might not be coming from where you feel it, and how most workouts are training your body in ways that don’t translate to real life.
Tune in! there’s a good chance your body will make more sense after this.
