• Why most back pain isn’t structural and why movement is the real medicine

• What world-renowned spine expert Dr. Stuart McGill says about healing your back

• How strength training (done right) can protect and heal your spine

• The worst advice people get from doctors

• How quitting the gym leads to worse outcomes and what to do instead

Plus, Rickard breaks down this week’s training program at Escapist CrossFit, showing how we use smart progressions and functional movements to build bulletproof backs…for life.
