Where Do You Even Start Fixing Your Body?

Recovery Mode

Most of us try to fix pain by stretching, rolling, or strapping ourselves into devices. But what if the real solution starts with simply watching how you move? After all, we are made out of non-Newtonian goo. And meat.

In this episode, Jack and Marce dig into:

- Why observation is step one in recovery (mirrors, cameras, and curiosity)
- How subconscious patterns fight against “just have better posture” advice
- The dangers of posture braces and over-stretching
- Understanding fascia as a non-Newtonian fluid (and why that matters)
- Common pain/pattern pairs (like pecs causing shoulder pain)
- Why the spot that hurts is rarely the real problem
- Strategies to start unwinding your body’s “cast”

This conversation is part science, part storytelling, and part “why did no one ever teach us this?”
