Summary

We’re back with another trio episode, and in this one, the hosts dig deeper into the Trex-lore. Eric Trexler has been training since his early youth, but only recently has he struggled with his fitness, and health and even had to rethink who he is as a lifter, due to lingering pain. Pain and injury are complex and multifaceted, but the body is resilient and often heals itself with time. But what can you do when nothing seems to work? When you seemingly can’t change your circumstances the only thing left is to change your perspective. Join us in this episode as the hosts share these perspectives, with a collective experience of over 50 years under the bar.

1:05.9	like Dr. Alyssa Joy Spence and PhD candidates Christian Omdi as well as Andrew King who are specifically

1:40.7	And we're having people come.
1:42.5	And the best part of this, folks, is it's not putting money
1:45.4	in my coffers. This isn't part of the big Helms industry. This is actually having all of our
1:51.6	proceeds go to the New Zealand powerlifting team. We're going to be competing in Lithuania
