Description
Chiropractic is a controversial subject in the fitness community. On the one hand, some people claim it can fix all kinds of aches, pains, and ailments ranging from low-back pain to indigestion, headaches, brain fog, and more. On the other hand, some say that chiropractic is a pseudoscientific discipline run by greedy charlatans who provide absolutely no value beyond the placebo effect. And if you poke around on the Internet and there’s plenty evidence of the latter, what with the myriad Internet “gurus” who use their “Doctor of Chiropractic” credentials to mislead people into thinking they’re medical doctors and thus experts on anything and everything related to health and wellness. What’s the real story though? Is chiropractic a science or a sham? Well, that’s what prompted me to invite Jordan Shallow on the show. Jordan’s a licensed chiropractor but also a high-level strength coach and competitive powerlifter, and in this interview, he helps shed light on the pros and cons of chiropractic, how it works, why people use it, and how it can and can’t benefit you, and more. 7:41 - What is a chiropractic? 10:21 - Point of adjustments 13:43 - Golgi tendon reflex 22:02 - How do you find a good chiropractor? 25:30 - What are Common Issues ? 35:08 - Mobility / yoga at home 39:37 - Stretching Properly 42:32 - Exercises to improve stability 49:00 - Whole body exercises 54:50 - Stabilizing positions 1:04: 41 - Find your work Mentioned on the Show: Legion Athletics Triton: https://legionathletics.com/products/supplements/triton/ Clinical Athlete Website: http://www.clinicalathlete.com/ Jordan’s Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/rxd-radio/id1197955534 Jordan’s Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/the_muscle_doc/?hl=en Jordan’s Website: https://themuscledoc.com/ Want to get my best advice on how to gain muscle and strength and lose fat faster?
