In today’s episode, Britleigh sits down with Bandon Puterbaugh, owner and founder of Charged Fitness and Rehab, to explore his unique approach to fitness and injury rehabilitation. Bandon’s journey began while he was a US Marine deployed in Afghanistan, where he became a certified personal trainer. After returning home, he worked as an exercise physiologist, helping patients recover from severe conditions like stroke, traumatic brain injuries, and spinal cord injuries. His passion for doing more sparked the creation of Charged Fitness, a full-service training and rehab center designed to get to the root cause of physical issues and help people live their best lives.

Britleigh first connected with Bandon when he hired her for headshots, and she was immediately fascinated by his method, which uses electricity to accelerate injury recovery. In this episode, they discuss how this innovative treatment works and how Bandon’s “Reset” session helped Britleigh improve her sleep and connection with her body.

This episode was recorded at Britleigh's new studio, The 412, a space she is excited to share with you. Don’t miss out on this inspiring conversation!
