Why Joint Pain Advice Is Either Too Simple or Too Complicated — And What Fills the Gap
This is the episode where Andrew tells the full story. It starts with a basketball camp, a dodge ball game, and an obsession with dunking. It ends with a framework for joint health that Andrew spent years building from the ground up. Everything in between is the reason Resonance exists. In this episode Andrew walks through the complete journey — from managing patellar tendonitis through his senior basketball season with knee sleeves and tiger balm, to discovering Ben Patrick and ATG, to working through Squat University's Rebuilding Milo and Gray Cook's Functional Movement System, to identifying what each of those approaches got right and what was still missing. What was missing — and what drove Andrew to build something different — was a system that is simultaneously universal and individualized, comprehensive without requiring years of study to understand, and accessible without hiding the most important information behind a paywall or a specialist's hourly rate. If you want to understand where Resonance came from, why it is built the way it is, and whether what we are doing here is actually for you — this is the episode to start with. Topics covered in this episode: — The injury that started everything — patellar tendonitis at 17 — Years of trying every fix the internet had to offer — Discovering Ben Patrick and ATG — what it got right — Squat University and the Kinesiological Pathological Model — Gray Cook and the Functional Movement System — Mike Boyle and the question nobody wants to answer — why do we do it this way? — What all of these approaches have in common and where they fall short — The gap that Resonance was built to fill
Changing the Approach to Stretching to Make Long Lasting Improvements
If you've been stretching the same tight areas for months with nothing lasting to show for it, the problem isn't your consistency — it's the mechanism you're working with. Tightness isn't a structural problem in the tissue. It's a neurological guarding response. And you can't stretch your way past a signal the body is sending for a very good reason.
Why Most Mobility Work Doesn't Work - And What to Do Instead
Most people trying to fix joint pain or improve mobility are working way too hard — and getting nowhere. In this episode, we break down the concept of scalability: why the exercises that actually create lasting change are the ones that meet you where you are, not where Instagram thinks you should be. We use a real example from my own hip impingement battle to show exactly how this works
