In this episode of Prescribing Lifestyle, I sit down with Regan Zampogna—a personal trainer, movement educator, and founder of Core Foundations PT. Regan shares his journey from a stressful corporate life to a more fulfilling career helping people move better and feel stronger.

Together, we explore what it means to go beyond “no pain, no gain” and how functional movement, posture, and biomechanics can transform the way you exercise for lifelong health. Regan opens up about his own health journey, living with high cholesterol, and how a personalized, evidence-based approach helped clear confusion about cholesterol risks.

• Why high cholesterol isn’t always the villain
• The power of second opinions in managing metabolic and heart health
• Regan’s personal journey from corporate burnout to founding Core Foundations PT
• How posture, biomechanics, and functional movement impact pain, fitness, and longevity
• Why the human gait cycle matters for optimal movement—and how most training routines miss the mark
• The difference between strength and optimal movement (and why “practice makes permanent”)
• How understanding movement patterns and myofascial connections can reduce injury, improve running and exercise form
• Simple ways to assess your own posture and start moving better every day
• Details on Core Foundations PT’s unique education-first approach, including a free consultation and movement assessment for listeners
