The owner of Life Athletics in Orange, CA, Joel, is an NASM-certified Personal Trainer and a specialist in both Corrective Exercise and Performance Enhancement. He specializes in bridging the gap between rehabilitation and peak performance, ensuring his clients move efficiently and effectively in every stage of life.Daniel Licht has lived with FOP since being diagnosed at age three. After a life defined by extreme physical caution, which included minimal formal exercise and a decade of occupational and physical therapy, he has spent the last decade undergoing a personal transformation. Guided by his personal trainer, he has gained a new lease on life, evolving from a world of restriction to one of newfound empowerment and resilience.

Please note that this podcast is intended as an example of hobbies and recreation. It is not medical advice and is not intended to be used as a resource for developing an exercise regimen.
