Strength Training with Chronic Pain: 3 Women Share Their Breakthroughs and Lessons


In today’s episode I want to share with you 3 short success stories from 3 women who all started strength training even despite having TMS / neuroplastic pain. And they all have great experiences to share!

As I mentioned, what’s common to all of them is that they all have or had TMS pain / neuroplastic pain or symptoms. But what’s different about them is that they all were on very different levels when they started:

Laura already had a lot of experience.
Amanda had some, but not a lot and
Annie was completely new.

They ALL have made progress with their strength training as well as their pain / sensations! They are not afraid of their sensations, in fact, they are BETTER. Not to mention that they are physically stronger. As you may know, physical strength and muscle mass are one of the keys to healthier, happier and longer life.

I hope this podcast inspires you and gives you SO much hope. I want to share these stories with you to show you that no matter where you are with your training or your pain, fatigue or anxiety, you can get better. You just need the right guidance, support and trust in your body.

You will hear about these women’s experiences through their own words. After each one, I will stop for a moment to add some comments of my own, to further emphasize some of the points they talked about.
