THOUGHT LEADER DIRECTORY

Brendan Backstrom

Brendan Backstrom is the founder of Low Back Ability, a physical conditioning and rehabilitation platform established in 2017. He specializes in supporting individuals overcoming chronic back pain through a methodology that moves away from fear and avoidance toward physical empowerment. His program is notably built on a "Pay What You Can" model, designed to ensure that rehabilitative resources remain financially accessible to those in need.

Brendan’s mission is to empower individuals to take control of their spinal health by "building their own back brace" through functional strength. His approach emphasizes a progressive model that gradually increases the spine’s capacity to handle stress and movement, helping clients transition from a state of limitation to one of physical resilience and autonomy.

Only 14% of American food qualifies as "healthy" — by the FDA's own standard

A 2026 WSU study ran 3,000+ commonly consumed foods through the FDA's updated "healthy" definition and only 14% passed — not because of exotic additives, but because of sodium and saturated fat added during processing. 90% of Americans currently exceed the daily sodium limit.
