Have you ever managed chronic pain? Or, maybe you've struggled to come back from an injury. Maybe you've had issues with your menstrual cycle as an athlete and need some tips on how to better care for your body. All of this and more is the reality of professional athlete, Lila Lapanja. If you're interested in learning how a Professional Alpine Ski Racer has walked through this journey and is coming out the other side with better health and performance than ever, you'll love this episode. 

In this episode, I interview one of our very own Strength & Mobility Dojo members, Lila Lapanja. Lila and I talk about:

• Her personal experience as a Professional Alpine Ski Racer beginning as a teenager and continuing on for over a decade now
• How she discovered the role your brain and nervous system plays in managing chronic pain, regulating metabolic health, and the impact it has on your overall health an lifestyle
• How her perception of her chronic pain patterns has completely transformed since learning the science of pain and how to quickly resolve issues as they arise
• How overhauling her training and eating habits played a massive role in improving her metabolic health and restored her menstrual cycle
• How improving her metabolic and hormonal health translated into better athletic performance and helped her make wiser training decisions
• Her training tips to help you restore balance to your training and to improve your health in the process
