Summary

I used to have really bad back pain. And training in the gym, especially squatting, didn’t help at all. But that’s because I was doing it wrong. Years of research and experimentation later, my back is so much better, as is my squatting technique. What’s the secret? It has something to do with imagining you’re sucking a smoothie through a straw using an intimate body part. Let me explain. On with the show. thesculptedvegan.com

0:00.0	Well, hey there, welcome to the strong and sculpted podcast, the podcast by me, Kim
0:10.9	Constable, otherwise known as the sculpted Began, about all things strong, and of course,
0:15.9	all things sculpted. And this week, we're going to talk about back pain because I get a lot of questions
0:22.1	in my Facebook groups and also on Instagram and, you know, all the places where you guys
0:26.0	write to me and send me all your wonderful questions. And one of the commonly asked questions
0:30.5	I get is about how to overcome back pain, especially when squatting in the gym. And I wanted to make a podcast about this because
0:38.8	it's something that I suffered from for many, well, many years, kind of many months, I suppose,
0:43.6	and years actually, whenever I first started training in the gym. And it is something that I have
0:47.8	managed to completely and utterly overcome using both my knowledge as a yoga teacher, my experience as yoga teacher,
0:55.1	my experience and knowledge of the human body, and also just years and years and years of
1:00.0	practice. So I want to give you the exact strategies today, the way that I overcame my back pain
1:06.5	and exactly what you can do to overcome yours, or maybe you don't even have back pain,
1:10.6	and you just want
1:11.7	some helpful hints and tips around squat or how to squat more, how to lift harder, how to
1:17.4	lift better in the gym. It's all going to be in this episode today. And of course, you know that I'm
1:22.3	just not going to talk about back pain. I'm going to talk about so much more than back then. And of course,
1:28.4	I'm going to interweave it with some really funny stories. And let me tell you, today is going to be
1:32.8	a clinker. You are going to laugh your pants off with some of the stories I have for you. So,
1:38.1	yeah, just to warm me up for what's coming, just wherever you are, you know, you're on a treadmill, you're in the gym, whatever, you may burst out laughing a few times. That's totally okay. Just be prepared for the
1:48.8	fact that you may have headphones in and people around you might be going, what is that crazy
1:52.2	bitch laughing at? Yeah, it's going to be today's podcast. So anyway, before we begin,
1:57.1	don't forget, it's the end of May 2020. I don't know when you're listening to this, but now I'm
