Barbell Shrugged interviewed Dr. Brad Cole for episode 31 of the popular podcast. CrossFit is an international fitness revolution and high performance sport. The functional movements (squatting, picking up heavy things, pulling, running, climbing, jumping) integral to CrossFit exercise programs leave no room for body movement inefficiencies. As chiropractic physicians, we at Cole Pain Therapy Group evaluate and treat the movement system, with a strong appreciation for the goals of any athlete. We enjoy being part of an athlete’s support team.
