Better with Brando is a solo podcast by movement visionary and physical therapist Brando Lakes.
Each episode breaks down the myths, systems, and everyday BS keeping you in pain — and offers real, unapologetic truth about what it means to move, live, and heal on your terms.
This isn’t just another health podcast. This is a rebellion. Against fragility. Against gatekeeping.
One story at a time.
You finished physical therapy… now what?
In this episode, Brando talks about one of the biggest mistakes people make after recovering from pain: stopping the very habits that helped them get better in the first place.
Recovery doesn’t end when the appointments stop.
If you’ve fallen off with your exercises, movement, or strength training, this episode is for you.
