Show Notes
Hypermobility affects far more people than we realize — especially endurance athletes. Chris sits down with physical therapist Holly Burt, who explains what hypermobility really is, why it’s often missed, and how it impacts joints, digestion, recovery, and injury risk.
We cover:
- Hypermobility vs flexibility
- Why stretching can make symptoms worse
- Strength training rules for hypermobile athletes
- Injury prevention in endurance sports
- Pilates, stability, and body awareness
- Training for longevity, not burnout
If you’ve ever felt “tight but bendy,” injury-prone, or frustrated with your body — this episode may be the missing link.
