Capitalizing the on the "Middle Ground" Between Fitness and Medicine

Presented by Phil Kaplan , 30 year industry veteran and founder of A.L.I.V.E. Across America

While the conventions of allopathic medicine steer those who struggle with chronic disease toward pharmaceutical interventions, the fitness field has historically worked with healthy individuals and has not prepared its practitioners to address “disease reversal.” As you’ll come to understand in this session, chronic disease evolves along a continuum, and beyond a “tipping point,” mal-adaptation of the endocrine system may prevent the anabolic, ergogenic, and fat liberating effects personal trainers have come to expect from exercise.

In this session, health practitioners and personal trainers will come to re-think the way we “treat” the unwell, especially those who are functional, working, and outwardly “normal” despite irregularities in blood sugar, blood pressure, or hormonal imbalances.
Live Presentation:
