Our mission is to empower everyday people to have confidence in their body, to see what they are capable of, to find enjoyment in movement - and in doing so, find good health and happiness.At Adaptive Strength one of the things we value most is education. We seek to learn from world class clinicians, coaches and basically anyone who is smarter than usWe’re going to be here every two weeks, fortnightly, and will discuss real world science and evidence based strategies from pain and rehab through to general strength and conditioning. We’ll have deep-dive episodes where we’ll chat with people about their own health and fitness journey. And find tools, tactics and strategies that have worked for them in the real world. And then we’ll have some episodes where it may be me, or one of our other coaches here at Adaptive Strength, sharing bite-sized topics related to your health, fitness and performance.
