In this episode of the My Life in Action Podcast, Fireman Rob talks with Michael Bitting, a personal trainer who knows firsthand what it means to come back from joint replacement. After years of pain that began limiting his workouts and quality of life, Michael made the decision to take action—not just as a trainer, but as a patient ready to fight for his future.
He opens up about the emotional and physical toll of losing mobility, the moment he knew surgery was the right choice, and how he approached recovery with the same discipline and mindset he brings to the gym. Now, Michael is back to lifting, training, and moving with confidence—and he’s passionate about helping others know that joint replacement isn’t the end, but a powerful new beginning.
Whether you’re a fellow fitness enthusiast or simply looking for motivation to take the next step, Michael’s story is proof that strength isn’t lost—it’s rebuilt.
