Do Yoga Teachers Have The Worst Back Pain?
🚨 Yoga teachers have the worst back pain in his clinic.
Not athletes. Not powerlifters.
Yoga teachers.
After 5 years of 2-hour daily stretching, their joints aren't more flexible. They're
unstable. One finger of pressure makes them scream.
🎧 EP262 with biomechanics engineer Gabriel Saravia @paraball
What he sees clinically:
✅ Vertebras shift millimeter by millimeter out of place
✅ Joints lose the concentric strength to hold themselves together
✅ Hypermobile clients take longer to fix than stiff ones
The fix isn't "stretch less." It's load through end range with your own muscles, not
external force.
💾 Save this if you stretch passively.
