Avoiding Flare Up: Adjusting training dials to stay within our 'window of tolerance'

from Bendy & Strong Podcast · host Annie Short

Send us Fan MailDo you find you flare up every time you try to progress in your training? This is a very common complaint - but on the other hand, if we NEVER progress our strength and rehab can become stagnant and this can cause its own set of issues. This "Goldilocks zone" where we're progressing in the right way AND amount is our "window of tolerance". And this is where the magic happens - pain free training, increased capacity, and reaching whatever training goals we want to achieve. The EDS/hypermobile body is incredibly adaptable and responsive. This means we have lots of different variables we can manipulate in order to stay within this window of tolerance. This podcast discusses some of them. DISCLAIMER: this is not medical advice or a substitute for medical advice! Find a good doctor and work with them and make sure you have clearance to exercise before starting anything new.Your Host - Annie Short: Strength Coach, Exercise Scientist, Powerlifter, Bodybuilder, and Ehlers-Danlos'erDon't forget to follow me for more EDS + training content:INSTAGRAM - @annieshortstrengthTIKTOK - @annie.shortYOUTUBE - @annieshortstrengthTo sign up for the latest round of the Bendy & Strong course (or put your name on the waitlist) go to www.bendyandstrong.comSupport the show
