I have fibro, chronic pain state and EDS. I agree somewhat with this, I weight train and it can help with pain, I was on strong opioids, and now I use weights instead, however with hypermobility and EDS you have to be bloody careful. I became strong last year but in November, I got injured; my pelvic floor was in spasm, I had dislocated ribs, a dislocated collar bone, thoracic outlet syndrome, my psoas muscle was in spasm, my glutes were in spasm and my diaphragm was in spasm. I had a twisted pelvis and a twisted rib cage and I was loading on the twist. I didn't realise because of my EDS, the condition masks unhealthy movement patterns (my proprioception is rubbish, and my body was adapting to being twisted). I have got over the injuries and it took me over 6 months and lots of setbacks and tears. EDS/hypermobility is very different, you need strong joint stability and good-aligned movement patterns before you load. I am saying this because I learned that the hard way and I don't want anyone to make the same mistake.
@@sandralewis-hy3no thank you for sharing. EDS can be tough but I find exercise selection to be the solution to this. A cool account is “theshirtlessdude” over on IG. He has EDS and makes some great content about this stuff. Maybe a good resource for you!
I dont think it’s always the case. I was lifting everyday and was in the best shape of my life when i developed chronic posture issues and pain that i have yet to be able to fix with exercise
Sounds like an exercise selection / form issue. I say this because I had similar experience. In the moment I thought I had good form and mobility but looking back… ehhh lol it wasn’t pretty. A good mobility assessment that focuses on when you start to compensate vs. just getting to the end range of motion was really helpful for me. Hope that helps.
Im all in mr.waugh. I will be doing rdls, I will be doing single leg sled press, I will be doing your cues for scapular winging, I will be strengthening and progressive overloading all the way.

Hey Sandra what helped you the most to get over those issues? , I am having similar issue, pelvic floor diaphragm contraction and other stuff...

Great video Kyle! Really looking forward to the T.R.U. course as well.

Do you have a course for uneven shoulders and forward head posture? I want to fix this and couldn´t find on your website.
No specific courses on that. I have a new course on improving overall posture, mobility, and how to train without injury
I’ve been training for hypertrophy since 15 currently at 23 i think i will never be in better shape than this 😂😂
I thought I had hit my genetic peak at 23 but I hadn’t… and I do this for a living. I’m still making significant gains at 31.
