In this episode of Founders Future, host Zach Young sits down with Damien Cachia, a mobility, strength, and conditioning coach helping athletes and everyday people overcome long-term injuries and reclaim their quality of life. Damien shares his journey from being a national-level gymnast for Canada to navigating years of chronic wrist, knee, and foot injuries that ended his competitive career—until discovering Functional Range Conditioning (FRC), the system that finally helped him resolve pain and restore joint function, and ultimately shaped his coaching philosophy.

Today, Damien runs both an online coaching business and a brick-and-mortar mobility studio, Calgary Movement Studio, where he focuses on KinStretch and joint-specific strength training for clients ranging from elite athletes to people in their 90s. In the conversation, he breaks down how personalized assessments, video feedback, and genuine human connection have driven exceptional client retention and sustainable growth—doubling revenue without debt—while also sharing insights on community-driven fitness, local discovery in the age of AI, and his long-term vision for helping more people move well for life.
