Revised & Expanded 2026 Edition.

Heal painful joints, prevent injuries, and rebuild your body from the ground up.
(If mainstream fitness advice has left you broken down and beat up, it’s time for a new strategy.)

Most middle-aged fitness enthusiasts and athletes have been dragged down by joint pain, injuries, and other ailments commonly accepted as “part of getting older.”

But it doesn’t have to be this way.

In fact, anyone can conquer joint pain and rebuild their body. It simply requires understanding the hidden causes and a road map (this book) that leads to the solution.

Built from Broken presents a paradigm shift in how to think about corrective exercise, sports nutrition, and joint health. Once you see how the system works, you’ll never look at exercise or joint health the same way again.

Part 1 lays the foundation for understanding why your joints are breaking down.

You’ll learn:
  • The 5 primary causes of joint pain.
  • How to prevent the “Big 3” injuries that trap you in the Pain/Injury Cycle.
  • Why conventional pain management merely masks symptoms.
  • How to identify and fix muscle imbalances that lead to tension, pain, and injuries.
  • Natural injury recovery strategies that improve healing time and tissue repair quality.

Part 2 gives you a step-by-step corrective exercise guide and list of action steps to rebuild your body from the ground up.

Including:
  • The ideal training schedule to maximise muscle recovery.
  • Illustrated corrective exercise instructions.
  • How to strengthen joints with cutting-edge connective tissue training techniques.
  • A step-by-step training programme complete with workout routines.

In this Second Edition, you’ll notice these improvements:
  • Updates to the program implementation section for ease of real-world application.
  • An Exercise Appendix with page numbers for each exercise in the book.
  • A brand-new Foundations Programme for those not experienced in fitness training.
  • Clarification on key details such as pain rating scales, exercise tempos, naming consistency, and guidance on uncommon joint pains.
  • Refined language throughout to improve clarity and readability.

Beyond these expanded sections, we’ve included free supplemental tools at bfb-book.com, including:
  • Built From Broken Exercises Video Library with demonstrations and audio instructions for virtually every exercise.
  • The Built From Broken Guide to Regenerative Therapies—a short, actionable guide covering accessible, proven treatments for pain and injury.

Whether you’ve been training for years, decades, or never stepped foot in a weight room, it’s not too late to overhaul your body. If the conventional path of lifting and stretching has left you broken down, why not try a new strategy?

This book is your way out of the pain/injury cycle.

All you have to do is follow three simple steps:
  1. Read the book.
  2. Follow the action steps inside to resolve your pain.
  3. Implement the 4-week corrective training program outlined in the book.

Just imagine—4 to 8 weeks from now, you could be living in a pain-free, mobile, strong, and functional body. One that allows you to do the activities you love, push your limits, and achieve your full physical potential.

This process can start for you right now.

About the Author

Hi, I'm Scott. I'm an A.C.E. (American Council on Exercise) Certified Personal Trainer, Certified Orthopedic Exercise Specialist (A.C.E.), and nutritional supplement formulator.

My goal as an author is to bring together the best ideas in therapeutic sports nutrition, fitness training, and functional movement -- with the goal of keeping you (and myself) strong, mobile, and built to last. 

I've spent most of my life battling injuries, joint pain, and just being plain beat up. So I know what it's like to struggle to stay healthy, let alone make substantial progress toward strength, athleticism, or body composition goals. 

Ultimately, I want to help you battle through injuries, pain, and physical limitations to reach your personal fitness goals.
