Dr. Lauren Polivka - Experts of Iron: Episode 01
*Reupload! This episode disappeared off the face of the earth, so we are re-releasing it! Hopefully it sticks around this time!
Welcome to Experts of Iron! Our first episode features Lauren Polivka, Doctor of Physical Therapy (DPT). In this episode Lauren walks us through her journey to becoming a DPT, common issues or injuries she treats in her powerlifting, weightlifting and CrossFit athletes, and how she has made a name for herself in a male-dominated industry.
Experts of Iron is a new series here on Empowered by Iron. Each month we will sit down with experts in training, nutrition, recovery, and mindset to discuss their research, background, and relevant industry topics.
