Today’s episode we are lucky to have the author of one of our latest articles and PSPC Master Instructor, Dr. Justin Farnsworth! Justin’s recent article brought to light the large disparities in care from PT to Personal Training and how we simply need to do better! Some may see this as a shit talking article simply bashing the same profession he works within but it was written to empower PT’s to elevate their care.
I wanted to make sure Justin had the time to discuss this very topic as it is so critically important to everyone in the training industry! Justin is the top Physical Therapist in the Rochester NY area and brings a blended view of training from Strength and Conditioning to Rehabilitation. His background as a hardcore athlete to now practicing rehab at high volumes has given him a unique perspective of how Rehab works – and how it doesn’t.
