#94 - Navigating The Medical Care System When You're Told To STOP Exercising

In today's podcast I sit down with CeCe and discuss orthopedics, nutrition, and fitness. Then we dive deep into the modern healthcare system and how it has changed the way many people approach pain and are looking to return to the gym or their sport. When a doctor tells a patient to stop lifting weights and working out, it can be frustrating, and it is okay to question it. It's also important to define the type of injury and the reason for seeing the doctor, as different types of injuries may require different approaches. People should not feel like they are stuck in the system and that stopping all activity is the only way to go. There are ways to navigate the process and stay healthy and fit, without necessarily having to put a complete stop to their active lifestyles. WHAT'S YOUR COMEBACK STORY?!
