Why do your muscles keep getting tight no matter how much you stretch, massage, or rest? In this powerful episode, Dr. Kevin Wall is joined by chiropractic physicians and hosts of The Functional Code Podcast, Dr. Jace Nybo and Dr. Addison Knudsen, to break down the real root causes behind chronic muscle tension and spasms.
They explain why posture, joint stability, and nerve function—not just muscle strength—are key to lifelong mobility. Learn the top reasons your body stays knotted up, the best starting points for building muscle without a gym, and how protein, digestion, and even peptides play into your muscle and metabolic health. Plus, hear the most practical steps you can take today to get stronger, move better, and finally feel free in your body.
