My SIJ subluxed after training - here's what we did [w/ guest Shant Rahman]
Send us a textI recently had my SIJ sublux a few days after a heavy training session. I spoke about it with my EDS/hypermobility specialist 'rehab guy' - Shant - and he told me he'd recently had the same thing happen to one of his hEDS clients. We discussed the solution we had each come up with, which was so far working for each person respectively - and it turns out great minds do think alike, as we had independently arrived at the same approach. Our approach is what we discuss in this video. 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. If you are experiencing subluxations from training, do NOT continue to do the same thing that triggered the problem, and consult a qualified rehab specialist. 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 - @annieshortstrengthWith guest Shant RahmanYou can find Shant...On INSTAGRAM - @strength.revolutionOr to BOOK IN (online consult available) - https://strengthrevolution.com.au/(EDS/"cluster" patients can use code ANNIE100 for $100AUD off - I don't get any commission from this code)Support the show

Avoiding Flare Up: Adjusting training dials to stay within our 'window of tolerance'
Send us a textDo 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!

How I went from my worst 2-year hEDS flare up to feeling my best (here's everything I did)
Send us a textIn this episode of Bendy & Strong I am running through the list of things I've been doing over the past few months/years to pull myself out of feeling the worst I've ever felt. When my dad died 2 years ago, my health plummeted and I was so scared that I would never get better. I wished I'd had a pathway out. So in this video I'm discussing the pathway I took out. DISCLAIMER: this is not medical advice or a substitute for medical advice!
