Coaching for Life: LaRae Sehr on Movement, Longevity and Living Well

”We don’t work out to add days to our life—we work out to add life to our days.”

In this episode of Delay the Decay, Dan Harty welcomes LaRae Sehr, a physical therapist and CrossFit coach whose passion is helping people move well for a lifetime. LaRae shares how decades of experience in sports, rehab, and coaching have shaped her belief that movement isn’t about chasing performance—it’s about preserving independence, confidence, and quality of life as we age.

LaRae opens up about nutrition resets, accountability, scaling workouts without shame, and why relationships are at the heart of great coaching and healing. From helping beginners overcome intimidation to creating a thriving Masters class that gives people their lives back, LaRae offers encouragement for anyone who’s busy, tired, or unsure where to start—and reminds us that progress begins with just one small step.
