    Will AI Replace Humans in Healthcare?

    In this episode of The Made 2 Move Podcast, physical therapist Hannah Breal @made2movept shares her perspective on AI in healthcare, clinician burnout, and why the real problem isn’t technology - it’s the massive admin burden built into the system. Hannah breaks down how documentation, insurance, and volume-based care pull clinicians away from patients, where AI can help reduce administrative load, and the hard line she draws around human connection and clinical decision-making. This episode is for clinicians, active adults, and anyone who believes healthcare should be human-first.

    The Decision That Changed Made 2 Move Forever

    In this episode of The Made 2 Move Podcast, Hannah sits down with her husband and business partner, Elliot, to share the story behind the decision that shaped Made 2 Move as it exists today. They talk about Elliot’s path into physical therapy, the early days of Prime Performance Rehab, and how two separate journeys became one shared mission. This conversation pulls back the curtain on the risks, lessons, and non-negotiables that guide everything we do—and why relationships and one-on-one care will always come first.

    Why Made 2 Move Exists

    Before Made 2 Move was a clinic, it was a belief. In the first episode of The Made 2 Move Podcast, Hannah Breal (@made2movept) shares the personal story that led her into physical therapy - and nearly led her out of it. From discovering the power of movement to pushing back against fear-based rehab, this episode explains why Made 2 Move exists and what kind of healthcare she believes people actually deserve. This episode sets the foundation for a different way of thinking about pain, movement, and what your body is capable of.

    The Real Reason Your Back Still Hurts (and What No One’s Talking About)

    Back pain is the leading cause of disability worldwide — and yet we’re still spending $50 billion a year on it without solving the problem. In this episode, Hannah (@made2movept) breaks down why the typical advice (perfect posture, endless adjustments, “don’t feel it in your back”) keeps us stuck in pain. She shares how our fear of back sensation has made us weaker, more fragile, and more likely to get hurt — and what actually needs to change if you want a strong, resilient back that can handle real life.

    Athlete Nutrition Made Simple: How to Eat, Train, and Recover Smarter with Sports Dietitian Alaine Mills

    In this episode, Hannah (@made2movept) sits down with sports dietitian Alaine Mills, MS, RD, CSSD to talk about what athletes get wrong about nutrition versus what actually drives performance. They cover the biggest surprises Alaine sees with her athletes: chronic under-fueling, carb fear, protein obsession, and how meal timing can make or break energy and recovery, along with practical strategies for fueling before, during, and after workouts, the 30–60g/hour carb rule for endurance athletes, and what to eat on game day. They also dig into youth athlete nutrition, injury recovery fueling, and how parents can help kids build healthy food relationships without labels or restriction.

    Stop Icing It: The Real Fix for Tennis Elbow (a.k.a. Pickleball Elbow)

    In this episode, Hannah (@made2movept) tackles “tennis elbow” (lateral elbow tendinopathy) through a real CrossFit/pickleball case—what it is, why rest/ice/sleeves feel good but don’t fix it, and how tendons actually get better with the right mechanical loading. She breaks down the overflowing-cup model (calm symptoms, then build capacity), pain guardrails (≤ 3–4/10 with a 24–48 hr check), and a simple progression from isometric wrist holds to eccentrics, carries, pressing, and a staged return to rowing, kipping, and pickleball. You’ll learn where dry needling fits (a window, not the solution), realistic timelines (weeks to feel better; months to remodel), and how to modify training so you can keep lifting and playing without flares.

    Bone Density & The Weighted Vest Debate

    In this episode, Hannah (@made2movept) dives into the rucking trend — walking with a weighted vest — and whether it really helps with bone density, muscle mass, and long-term health. She breaks down the science behind the hype, what studies actually show, and why strength and jump training still matter most for building stronger bones. You’ll learn how (and when) weighted vests can be helpful, what they can’t replace, and how to cut through social media myths to make the best call for your own health.

    Hot Girl Cycle Club: How Kylie Built Charleston’s Traveling Spin Studio

    What do dolphins, a 24-foot trailer called The Hog, and Charleston’s newest spin scene have in common? Kylie. In this week’s episode, I sat down with Kylie, founder of Hot Girl Cycle Club, to hear how she went from dolphin training to creating Charleston’s first traveling spin studio. Kylie shares the grit and sacrifices of her Seaworld career, how cycling became her escape, and how she turned a financial setback into an opportunity. With no access to traditional funding, she hustled for investors, thrifted bikes from across state lines, and built her business from scratch. Today, Hot Girl Cycle Club is Charleston’s first fully mobile cycling studio, building community and confidence through pop-ups and collaborations with local businesses. The conversation covers entrepreneurship, resilience, and redefining fitness. For Kylie, being a “hot girl” means owning your confidence, building community, and refusing to quit, even when the odds are stacked against you.
