E39: Pain Isn't the Problem: How Great Coaches Think Beyond the Site

Most pain isn't where the problem starts, and most fixes aren't where you'd expect. In this episode, Schultze and Jorge explore the link between foot mechanics and hip function, why chasing pain leads to dead ends, and how skilled coaches assess and adapt in real time. From movement prep and soft tissue work to the power of language and psychology, this conversation dives deep into how to train with purpose, coach with clarity, and earn long-term client trust. https://www.instagram.com/brandon.schultze/ https://www.instagram.com/jorgedehoyos_/ FREE Coach's Field Guide: https://www.pre-script.com/coachs-field-guide It's time we get serious about exercise prescription.
