In this interview, Nikki chats with strength and mobility coach
Jessie Rard from Twisted Fox Training about training with
Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (EDS) and hypermobility.
They discuss:
What EDS is and basic considerations for pain reduction and
injury prevention if you have this diagnosis or you know that you
are hypermobile
Passive (stretching) versus active (strengthening) ranges of
motion and how to assess for and close the gap between the two
The importance of stability and strength training when you are
hypermobile
Why you can have hypermobility and still pursue athletic
activities, including circus, martial arts, and more.
Why you don't need to fear your range of motion if you are
hypermobile or work with hypermobile individuals
Join strength and nutrition coach Nikki Naab-Levy for conversations with industry experts that cut through the B.S. and deliver science-backed insights on strength training, nutrition, and conquering fitness with hypermobility.
