S1E5 | Dr. Kelly Starrett – Optimizing Your Life Injured or Not and the Biopsychosocial Model

by | Dec 18, 2018

On Episode 5 I sit down with my friend and mentor Dr. Kelly Starrett to learn about dialing in very specific things that will help you where ever you are on the spectrum of human, adaptive, able bodies, injuried, old, young etc. Kelly also keenly discusses the biopsychosocial model of physical therapy and how it is revolutionizing how they take care of ourselves.  Listen, apply to your life, and pay it forward.

Here are topics covered on the show

  • Most Embarrassing Moment In PT School
  • How following the practice act makes you a bad physio
  • How coaching changed Kelly’s practice as a physio
  • What makes people change behavior
  • Working with adaptive athletes
  • 1st principles
  • The mental health side of improving health
  • Embracing being tribal animals
