Surgery to Strength

Rebuilding identity, strength, and confidence after injury or surgery.

About

For most of my life, my identity revolved around athletics, martial arts, and training. Then life, stress, and years of pushing through pain caught up with me.

After ACDF surgery (C3–C6), I hit rock bottom — not just physically, but emotionally. I had to learn how to rebuild in a new way: non-impact strength, controlled movement, breathwork, and a mindset that respects the body instead of fighting it.

Surgery to Strength is for anyone who feels limited, left out, or unsure how to move forward. You are not broken. You are rebuilding.
