Ever found yourself easing off the bench press to ponder the complexities of lower back pain? That's where Dr. Arash from the Prehab Guys steps in, joining us on the Show Up Fitness podcast to unravel the mystery.

Imagine a world where healthcare wasn't just about managing symptoms but about building strong foundations for long-term health. That's the world we explore, taking you through the phases of rehabilitation—mobilization, stabilization, and strengthening—like a connoisseur guides a wine-tasting. We tackle the tempting quick fixes that often lead to disappointment and discuss the benefits of conservative care over a hasty cortisone shot. The episode doesn't shy away from the gritty details, as it emphasizes the need for partnerships with therapists and chiropractors, setting the stage for a training market where quality care is the differentiator.
