    176. Ruck Your Way to Better Health
    Jun 10 2025
    Could a simple walk challenge your body, clear your mind, and strengthen your sense of discipline all at once? Dr. Andrew Fix unpacks the rising popularity of rucking: a low-tech approach to fitness that involves walking with added weight in a backpack or vest. He explains how this small shift transforms a regular walk into a more efficient workout that improves cardiovascular health, builds muscle, and supports mental well-being. The best part? You don’t need specialized equipment. A backpack and a few heavy books are enough to get started. This episode also explores how rucking creates space for connection. Whether you’re walking with a friend or joining a group, there’s something powerful about moving side by side with others. Dr. Fix shares why those moments matter, and how they help build both physical and emotional resilience. If you’ve been looking for a sustainable, accessible way to support your health, rucking might be the shift your routine needs! Quotes “It makes you have to work harder, not only physically, like your muscles, your joints, your tissues have to work a little bit harder, but so does your heart, so does your cardiovascular system, so do your lungs, your respiratory system, and it’s gonna up-level that training just a little bit for you.” (02:57 | Dr. Andrew Fix)“If you want to be efficient with your time that you have to exercise and you want to maximize that, throwing a little bit of extra weight on you when you go for that walk... is just going to make it more impactful and more efficient for you.” (07:03 | Dr. Andrew Fix)“There’s this situation where you’re across from somebody and it’s me versus you, but if you’re next to somebody, it’s us and we’re in this together.” (09:24 | Dr. Andrew Fix)“If you’re looking for something consistent, easy to stick with, and a way to build a little mental toughness along the way, rucking might be a great activity for you.” (10:26 | Dr. Andrew Fix)“I encourage you—whether you’ve got a weight vest, a backpack, actual weights, or just some books or water bottles—add a little extra weight to your next walk and give rucking a try.” (11:38 | Dr. Andrew Fix) Links https://www.google.com/search?q=rucking&rlz=1C5CHFA_enUS987US989&oq=rucking&gs_lcrp=EgZjaHJvbWUyDAgAEEUYORixAxiABDINCAEQABiDARixAxiABDIHCAIQABiABDINCAMQABiDARixAxiABDINCAQQABiDARixAxiABDIHCAUQABiABDIHCAYQABiABDIGCAcQRRg90gEIMTA0NmowajeoAgCwAgA&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8 https://www.podbean.com/player-v2/?i=ncte4-14f60bb-pb&from=pb6admin&share=1&download=1&rtl=0&fonts=Arial&skin=1&font-color=auto&logo_link=episode_page&btn-skin=1b1b1b#:~:text=In%20this%20episode%20of%20The,strengthen%20your%20core%20and%20legs SideKick Tool: https://bit.ly/4a6CqJS Movemate:

    175. Building Stronger Bonds: The Pillars of Impact Fatherhood Framework | Jason Griffing
    Jun 3 2025

    Most men want real connection. But as a father in midlife, where do you find it?

    Dr. Andrew Fix talks with Jason Griffing, the founder of Pillars of Impact, a growing community for dads who want more than surface-level friendships. They explore what happens when fathers carve out space for honest conversations about marriage, parenting, purpose, and the parts of life that often get overlooked.

    How do you show up with vulnerability when you’re juggling kids, career, and a long to-do list? Why is it so easy to let your relationship take a back seat, even when you know better? Jason shares how the group’s six pillars – parenting, marriage, wealth, mindset, fitness, and vocation – create structure for growth and a support system that feels personal, not performative.

    This episode is a reminder that community doesn’t build itself. And for many fathers, it starts with simply deciding to speak up, show up, and stay committed to something real.

    Quotes

    • “You get this kind of asymmetry of like I’m very locked in on the things that aren’t going well in my life. And I’m seeing all of the things that are going incredibly well in everybody else’s life. And that can be a really negative spiral and a kind of isolating factor in our lives.” (16:29 | Jason Griffing)
    • “Sometimes you need some urgency in your life to sort of drive that productivity.” (20:32 | Jason Griffing)
    • “It’s so much easier to let yourself down than to let other people down.” (25:38 | Dr. Andrew Fix)
    • “I’m a big believer in the power of ideas. The right ideas have really helped me lead a more impactful life from getting sober… All of these things start as an idea. And I think if we can really tap into the power of ideas, of course, they have to be coupled with action as well.” (52:22 | Jason Griffing)
    • “In today’s world, for all kinds of reasons, having real social connection and peer relationships is more important than ever.” (53:31 | Jason Griffing)

  • 174. Beyond the Pain Point: Treating the Whole Person in Physical Therapy

    174. Beyond the Pain Point: Treating the Whole Person in Physical Therapy
    May 27 2025

    Treating pain without seeing the full picture is like fixing a leaky pipe without checking the water supply for the real issue.

    Dr. Andrew Fix shares a story about a patient who followed all the rules of rehab but still couldn’t shake her knee pain. Months of physical therapy focused on the joint itself, yet her mobility was limited and the discomfort persisted. Why wasn’t it working?

    As it turns out, the problem wasn’t only in her knee. Her hip and ankle on the same side were stiff and weak, issues no one had looked at before. Dr. Fix explains how a more thorough, full-body assessment changed the course of her care and revealed what had likely contributed to the pain all along.

    If you're dealing with lingering pain or stuck progress, this episode is a reminder to zoom out. Are we really treating the cause, or just the symptom? For physical therapy to be effective, the whole body has to be part of the conversation.

    Quotes

    • “Sometimes we don’t do quite as thorough of an evaluation on those people because we’re just so focused on the surgery that they just had.” (04:37 | Dr. Andrew Fix)
    • “What we found was that she has a significantly stiffened hip on the same side, that same leg, the left side, compared to the other hip. Her ankle, super stiff on that left side compared to the other side. And of course, that’s the side that she’s still having knee pain on.” (05:01 | Dr. Andrew Fix)
    • “We cannot look at this person, this individual, because they had a knee surgery, just like we need to rehab their knee. We need to think about how this interacts and how this plays with the entire body.” (07:37 | Dr. Andrew Fix)
    • “It’s not rocket science, right? If we have pain in a joint, we can’t just look at that joint. We need to look above. We need to look below.” (09:53 | Dr. Andrew Fix)
    • “You can’t treat issues in a vacuum because otherwise you’re going to have results that are in a vacuum that aren’t going to expand to be widespread positive changes.” (10:31 | Dr. Andrew Fix)
