Elly makes this show. If she ever leaves then I’m gone too. Also I really enjoy the knowledge shared each time you all have a doctor on the show. Keep them coming. Great episode.

Thanks to Team @CrossfitMayhem for a great time to Cookeville! Its always exciting to work with world class athletes who aren't satisfied with what they've achieved in the past, and continue to learn and get better at their craft. Special "Thanks" to the Froning & Friends pod cast crew @RichFroning, @Jimmy_Hensel and of course @EllyKabboord.

Curious to hear your thoughts on machines like the Compex, and Power dot? would these be used to activate muscles that aren't turning on or are they another method of turning muscles off? also, is dry needling in the same boat here? Loved hearing your thoughts on a lot of current PT looking to change what I do to recover and starting to do some research as to what I can do to best care for my body.

What would you do to fix wrist pain and upper back pain?

[@06livefast]

I recently start opening the taint in the back squat, and it instantly took away my back problems.
