Training for Hypermobility and Joint Stability
Hypermobility changes how bodies experience movement, load, and recovery.
Many people with hypermobile joints are told they are “just flexible” despite dealing with instability, fatigue, pain, ‘clumsy’ injuries, or a sense that their body is unpredictable.
Being dismissed when something feels off is not uncommon.
Why standard training often falls short
Most training programs are built around consistency, linear progress, and increasing intensity. For hypermobile bodies, that model can miss important variables.
Strength without joint control, or progression without adequate recovery, can increase symptoms. Programming that looks effective on paper does not always translate well in real life, especially when connective tissue behavior, nervous system regulation, or recovery capacity are part of the picture.
When a program “should” be working but isn’t, the issue is rarely effort. It is usually a mismatch in approach.
Hypermobility is not a flaw. It is a difference in tissue behavior and joint response. And it requires a different level of precision in training.
Hypermobility-informed training pays attention to how movement is controlled. Progress is built in a way that holds up beyond the gym and supports daily life.
My approach
I approach hypermobile bodies with both clinical understanding and lived experience. The work is thoughtful, adaptive, and grounded in how the body actually responds.
Many hypermobile people learn to live around their symptoms. They adapt. They compensate. They get used to managing rather than trusting their body. Being told to “just strengthen” or “be careful” rarely changes that.
We build strength in ranges you can control. We improve predictability before adding complexity. We respect recovery capacity instead of testing it.
The goal is not to restrict movement. The goal is to make movement reliable.
Working Together
Hypermobility-informed training is offered through individualized personal training and program design. Semi-private group sessions are offered by invitation only. Sessions are held online via Zoom and are structured to support joint control, movement quality, and long-term capacity.
If you are looking for training that respects the complexity of your body and is built around how you actually move, this work offers a considered and supportive way forward.
