Have some final questions?

Will I need any equipment?

You'll need some light to medium weights and bands once we transition into the 2nd phase at week 7. We'll let you know a few weeks before what you'll want to order based on your results the first month or so in the program. 

I've tried a lot of different workout programs. How is this different?

Rebuilding Body is a comprehensive health and fitness program tailored specifically for people with chronic pain. We have exercises for your mind, body, and nervous system to address your pain at the root so we can help you get strong and build the body you want without flaring. We also emphasize coaching and customization in this program - you'll get 1-1 support and detailed coaching in the video lessons which can make the difference between a painful movement and a pain-free movement. You'll know exactly how to tailor fundamental weight lifting movements to your unique body so you can get results without symptoms, and practice those skills for life.

I have arthritis/back pain/shoulder pain/hip pain/etc, will this work for me?

Yes! If you're cleared for movement by your physician, this would be a great place for you to start your movement practice. If you have any concern about whether your condition(s) are appropriate for this course, feel free to reach out. We have experience with all sorts of chronic pain and conditions.

I have fibromyalgia/lupus/MS/hashimotos/etc, will this work for me?

This course especially caters to the sensitivities present when living with an autoimmune disease. Many clients experience a reduction in their autoimmune flares after following this work!

What happens after I complete Rebuilding Body?

After you complete the 10 weeks, we'll upgrade you into our Sustainable Strength phase for an additional 4 weeks to keep improving your strength and capacity. If you want further assistance after these 14 weeks, you're welcome to continue with an exclusive month-to-month private coaching offer as a Rebuilding Body graduate.

What are the 1-1 sessions like?

In most sessions, I'll be assessing and coaching you live through various movements. Think of the 1-1 work as the "fine tuning". We may also touch base on lifestyle changes, nervous system regulation, or more depending on your needs.

How many hours per week will this take me?

Anywhere from 2-3 hours, max.

How long are the workouts?

The workouts are very flexible in terms of time. It could be 15-20 minutes more times throughout the week, or 30-45 minutes but less times throughout the week. We give several options to tailor the workout duration and frequency to your schedule and needs.

Are we going to be doing workout classes together?

Everybody coming in to this program will be at different levels, with different paces. The intent of this program is to help you identify your unique level every step of the way, and have the ability to follow that without feeling pressured or behind. You'll practice your movement skills solo via the in-depth coaching videos, and then we'll hop into our weekly 1-1 sessions to fine-tune your programming as needed.

I'm currently seeing a physical therapist/chiro/massage therapist/etc. Can I still do this?

I frequently work alongside other practitioners, but I always suggest asking your professional first and sending them my way so we can discuss if this is the right time.

How long will it take for me to see results?

We expect you to feel a difference in your strength and symptoms within 2 weeks, with the most significant change at the 6-week mark provided you’re following the course on a week-by-week timeline. Your body can adapt quickly with the right input!

Will I lose weight?

Many people do lose weight since we invite all clients to eat an anti-inflammatory diet and you'll have an increase in movement. If you'd like to tailor the program to address weight loss needs, we can do so as well with you.

Will I put on muscle?

Yes! Depending on where you're starting, you should see visible changes in your body toward the last few weeks of the program as we ramp intensity up.

Can I do other workouts or activities with this?

For the first 6 weeks, depending on your frequency of flares, capacity and sensitivity, we recommend taking a break from all other physical activities. Recall that the first 6 weeks is a "repatterning phase". We want to ensure we're not repeating old and potentially provoking patterns or exercises. You'll hear us say "remove all potential provoking stimuli". Once we let your body rest, recover and repattern, then we can start introducing past or new activities gradually.

What if this is too easy for me?

As one of my teachers put it, "the hard work is easy, the easy work is hard." While the movements and practices might seem or look "easy" in the beginning, we deliberately make the easy work hard in this program! Most clients report this type of training is just as mentally challenging as it is physically because we're slowing everything down and helping you learn a new way of sensing and moving in your body. It's easy to whiz through or "half-ass" exercises where we just go through the motions to "get them done". In this work, everything is intentional with high levels of attunement, focus and self-awareness. This is necessary in order to repattern how your brain, body and nervous system are functioning and responding to input so we can stop the pain cycle.

What if this is too hard for me?

Take your time! If you can't finish the program in full, you'll still have unlimited access to the content to go at a slower pace for whatever reason. However, we intentionally designed this program to go slightly slower so you'd have plenty of time to master your movements week after week.

What results can I expect once I'm done?

You can expect to have a significant decrease (or a complete absence is more common!) in your chronic pain symptoms, measurable increases in your strength, mobility and endurance, less fear and hesitation about flaring, less stress and tension overall, more energy and confidence to embark on other physical endeavors, and a strong, healthy body that moves well and feels great! To get a little more specific, this training will build full body stability, mobility, and flexibility in your core, shoulders, hips, knees, feet, spine, hips, elbows and wrists. You can think of this training as "bullet-proofing" your body, laying down a solid foundation to carry into all your other physical activities (from walking to acrobatics). You'll improve your body awareness, your grace, balance, and posture. Your joints and soft tissues will be more resilient, and your body will be able to handle more stress or stimuli without collapsing into a flare. We love the freedom and relief our clients experience after working together - no more spending precious mental or physical energy trying to figure out how to get the results they're after. They've arrived!

Can I repeat Rebuilding Body once I'm done?

You're welcome to reference the exercises as much as you'd like! The movements we'll be teaching you will serve you well for life.
