Today's episode of EMBody Radio is part one of my interview with Ethan Brown. Ethan is not just A physical therapist, he's MY physical therapist! After many sessions and conversations with Ethan, I knew I needed to bring him on the show to share his knowledge. Ethan is a competitive bodybuilder himself, and he also runs his own physical therapy practice, Bodies By Brown Physical Therapy, with his wife, Kaitlyn. With his experience in bodybuilding, Ethan has a unique perspective as a PT as it pertains to bodybuilding-style training. Today we talk about: -Common causes of low back pain in serious trainees and how to fix it, -Hypo and hypermobility as it relates to the spine, -The problem(s) that arise when superficial muscles are forced to "take over" the role of deep stabilizer muscles and structures, -Relying on the muscle to create the movement, not the weight used, -The importance of stability exercises, -Stability/mobility drills for things like your transverse abdominus, shoulders, and rotator cuff, -Internal shoulder rotation, why it happens, the problems that arise with it, and how to fix it, -SO much more!

You've seen me post about this stuff on Instagram and IG stories all the time, and I wanted to take a sec to tell you a little more about them today.
