Oh, family vacation. That rush of excitement as you prepare for an adventure... the anticipation of making memories...
And then in a heartbeat, everything changes.
In this deeply personal episode of the FASTer Way Podcast, our Founder & CEO Amanda Tress opens up about a terrifying moment that transformed her perception of why we train.
What began as a fun family zip-lining excursion quickly became a battle to get to safety when Amanda found herself suspended by her hair, dangling precariously above the ground.
The whiplash injury that followed forced Amanda—someone that thrives on movement—to pause and recalibrate her approach to fitness. Together with FASTer Way Director of Education Le Bergin, she walks us through the emotional and physical journey of recovery with honesty that will resonate with anyone who's ever faced an unexpected setback.
For anyone who has navigated an injury, this conversation offers a compassionate roadmap forward. Amanda and Le break down:
- Permission to prioritize healing – recognizing that physical rest isn't giving up, it's a strategic move in your comeback story
- Amanda's personal recovery toolkit – from saunas to cutting-edge Ozone therapy and a Pulsed Electromagnetic Field (PEMF) mat for inflammation reduction
- Why nutrition matters more than ever when you’re healing (hint—it’s not the time to cut calories!)
What makes this episode especially powerful is how it transforms a frightening ordeal into a master class on resilience—both physical, mental, and spiritual.
This conversation beautifully illustrates why FASTer Way has always emphasized functional fitness that serves your life beyond aesthetics. The muscles you're building today might be your lifeline tomorrow.
Enjoy the episode!
