Or have we been focusing on the wrong thing all along?In this solo episode of the Build Beyond Podcast, Chris explores the relationship between weight loss, nutrition, recovery, and long-term health.

What happens when experienced coaches admit they’ve changed their minds?In this episode, I sit down with coach Rachel Eller for an honest conversation about fitness, coaching, pain, nutrition, and the beliefs we’ve had to rethink over the years.We discuss:Why changing your mind is often a sign of growthThe problem with black-and-white fitness adviceWhy “perfect form” isn’t always the goalFear, low back pain, and lifting with a rounded spineTraining for performance vs. training for appearanceWhy calorie counting isn’t stupidThe importance of nuance in coaching, rehab, and healthHow good coaches balance encouragement with honestyThis episode is a deep dive into the realities of movement, health, and behavior change—and why becoming “less wrong” may be one of the most important skills in fitness and life.What Has Rachel Changed Her Mind About?#1) The longer I train (myself and others), the less I care how I look and more I care about *what I can do.*#2) I still don’t love cardio, but I now want (and think I ought) to do something to get my heart rate up besides lifting.#3) I’ve learned being more frank with a client is the loving and helpful thing to do.#4) Regardless of your goals (performance or appearance), nutrition matters more than you want it to.#5) The protein hype is a little overrated. But fiber/fruits and veggies can’t be exaggerated enough!#6) Steps per day (and daily walks) are underrated.#7) Most of the time to solve a nagging pain or small injury it’s simpler than you think, and you don’t need a fancy diagnosis. Just deload the movement, tweak form, be patient, and slowly rebuild tolerance. What has Chris changed his mind about?#1) If you don’t keep a neutral spine, you won’t necessarily get injured. Rounding your back isn’t necessarily bad for your spine. #2) I don’t need to give patients advice. I don’t need to prescribe them a solution to their problems. I don’t know more than the patients, so I shouldn’t necessarily tell them what they need to do.If they don’t follow my prescription, they are non-compliant.If they don’t follow my prescription, they are unmotivated to improve.#3) Routine chiropractic adjustments don’t improve health and prevent pain by correcting misalignments.#4) Alkaline water isn’t important for health.#5) Annual blood tests aren’t necessary for everyone, especially without a qualified healthcare provider. Taking supplements based on bloodwork won’t necessarily improve your health and prevent health issues.#6) Calorie counting isn’t stupid. Eating “clean” isn’t necessarily going to change your life.#7) Sitting isn’t necessarily the new smoking. “Bad posture” isn’t a real thing.Chapters00:00 The Power of Change: Can People Really Change?03:03 Personal Growth Through Change: Mindset Shifts06:07 Training for Health vs. Aesthetics: A Paradigm Shift09:01 The Nuances of Training: Individual Goals Matter11:49 Rethinking Movement: The Role of a Rounded Back15:01 Coaching for Individual Needs: The Importance of Nuance18:03 The Balance of Motivation and Technique in Training31:43 The Importance of Frank Coaching45:23 Nuances of Calorie Counting and Clean EatingWhere to find Rachel Eller:Instagram: @rach.l.fitWhere to find Chris Netley:BuildBeyondHealth.comInstagram: @BuildBeyondHealthYouTube: @chrisnetleyDCX (formerly Twitter): @chrisnetleyDC Facebook: Build Beyond Health, PLLC

Pain and injury are often treated as problems that need to be “fixed,” but what if they’re actually signals that something in your life needs to change?In this episode of the Build Beyond Podcast, Dr. Chris Netley explains why pain doesn’t always mean damage and why focusing only on diagnoses or structural problems can miss the bigger picture. Pain is a multifactorial experience, influenced by factors like sleep, stress, movement habits, nutrition, and mindset. While traumatic injuries certainly happen, many pain episodes occur when multiple lifestyle factors stack up over time.Rather than obsessing over finding a single “root cause,” Chris encourages listeners to think of pain as a request for change. The episode provides a practical checklist of foundational habits that can dramatically reduce the risk of pain and injury, improve recovery, and support long-term health. These strategies are simple, often free, and have ripple effects that extend far beyond pain management—improving energy, mood, metabolic health, and overall resilience.Chris also discusses the importance of avoiding fear-based thinking about pain, not identifying with injuries, and setting meaningful goals that give your recovery direction. While many people can make progress on their own using these principles, sometimes guidance from a professional or coach can help navigate the process more efficiently.Ultimately, the goal of good healthcare isn’t to make people dependent on clinicians—it’s to empower them with the knowledge and habits that allow them to stay active, resilient, and capable for life.ChecklistUse this checklist as a starting point.

Low back pain is common, but when it starts traveling down the leg with numbness, tingling, or weakness, it may indicate nerve involvement.

In this episode of the Build Beyond Podcast, Chris reacts to a provocative quote: “Your pain having a name doesn’t make you better.”He explores why chasing a diagnosis can sometimes create “paralysis by analysis”—especially with common issues like back and shoulder pain.
