💪🏼 Hard work is only half the battle

🔄The SRA cycle is essentially how our body adapts and how we see improvements in strength and performance. With a key takeaway being that improvement or adaptation can’t occur without recovery!

💤 The Recovery phase is where the magic happens. Without it, you aren’t “out working your competition”—you’re just wearing yourself down.

Stimulus: The Work.

Recovery: The Growth.

Adaptation: The Result.

Don’t cheat the process. Get your sleep, hit your protein, and give your body a break to level up

❓Which is you favorite recovery modality?!

🛠️Here are a few of the tools I am able to use on people coming in wanting to move and feel better

Although the active component of exercises and movements that we do on the floor is also hugely important the bodywork is also great for people tired of being “on” all the time and just are needing to relax and receive passive treatment

📋 Here’s a quick rundown of the benefit of each option:

1️⃣Fascial Stretch Therapy (FST)

Utilizing joint traction and multi-planar stretching is more effective at increasing flexibility and functional mobility than traditional static stretching. Also, helps restore the sliding mechanism between fascial layers (aided by the movement of hyaluronic acid), which reduces tissue stiffness

2️⃣Normatec (Pneumatic Compression)

Reduced Muscle Soreness (DOMS) and enhanced metabolic clearance by moving fluid and metabolic waste products (like lactate) out of the limbs more efficiently than passive rest.

3️⃣Theragun (Percussive Therapy)

Increased Blood Flow & Muscle Oxygenation: Studies demonstrate that percussive therapy acutely enhances local microcirculation and skin temperature, which helps “prime” muscles for activity or aid in recovery. Percussion can also increase flexibility without sacrificing explosive strength—and may even improve performance in subsequent sets.

4️⃣IASTM (Instrument Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization)

Fibroblast Proliferation & Tissue Healing Science shows that the “scraping” motion creates controlled micro-trauma that triggers the production of fibroblasts. This helps stimulate collagen repair and the remodeling of scarred or poorly healed tissue as well as providing short-term pain relief

5️⃣Cupping

Tissue Decompression: While most manual therapies use compression, cupping provides negative pressure (suction) which lifts and separates fascial layers, reducing friction and improving “tissue extensibility” and skin blood flow, which brings oxygen and nutrients to the area to support the body’s natural inflammatory healing process.

Plenty of appointments available for the last full work week of 2025!!!

Stop training through pain and working against your body. Experiencing a season of Fascial Stretch therapy + Bodywork can be an amazing addition to round out your recovery, improve mobility, and getting you back to peak performance faster

🌪️Thoracic Rotation 🌪️

The ability for the upper spine (aka thoracic spine) to be mobile and easily extend, flex, rotate and side bend is a critical element of healthy movement and athletic performance

Whether you are an athlete or just trying to stay active and in shape, here are three reasons why keeping your T-spine mobile is important!

1️⃣ Protects the Lower Back
* The lumbar spine (low back) is built for stability, not rotation. When your mid-back is stiff, your body compensates by forcing the lower back to twist instead, which leads to low back pain, stiffness, and disc issues over time.
2️⃣ Unlocks Shoulder & Overhead Power
* The shoulder blade rests on the thoracic spine. Without proper mid-back extension and rotation, your shoulder joint cannot move efficiently overhead. This causes shoulder impingement, neck strain, and loss of power in throwing, swimming, or pressing movements.
3️⃣ Enhances Athletic Performance & Posture:
* Rotational sports (golf, baseball, tennis) directly depend on thoracic rotation to generate and transfer power from the ground up. For everyone, better thoracic mobility improves posture (reducing that “hunch”) and allows the rib cage to expand fully for optimal breathing and recovery.

🏃🏼 Most athletes have no shortage of doing plenty of sprinting, change of direction and acceleration work but what they may be neglecting or not getting nearly enough of is isometric work!

Using long, heavy isometric holds (e.g., 30-45 seconds) is a great way to reduce hamstring pain and build strength without the high risk of injury associated with dynamic movements making it a great choice for both off and in season

Here are three reasons why I liken incorporating isometrics a lot of the time

💥Tendon Specific: Isometric holds increase the stiffness of the hamstring tendon, helping it absorb high forces (like sprinting)to better prevent strains

💥 Targeted Relief: Controlled static holds can help reduce current hamstring pain and safely strengthen the muscle in its most vulnerable ranges

💥 Built-in Brake: Training your hamstring isometrically improves its ability to stabilize and control force, acting like a powerful built-in brake during intense movements.

Just got a fun new toy to work with called the Vipr Pro and it’s awesome for loading as well as varying traditional movements

So many times people in chronic pain or discomfort have essentially been moving in the same ways for years and years. Largely sitting, little bit of walking, laying down, and if they’re lucky they hit the gym but often resort to the same saggital plane movements.

As it turns out, our fascia (and entire bodies) love movement and movement variety which is why I’m always a fan of implementing more movements in all 3 planes of motion, especially in a warm up!

Think forward/reverse, side to side and rotating as 3 great checkmarks as you warm up for your next practice or workout or steal this flow with just a dowel, med ball or dumbbell 🙌🏼

Have you ever been curious of what a session at KO Recovery is like but just haven’t had the time or opportunity? Now is your chance!

From 10-2pm Saturday March 29th I will be hosting 25 min demo sessions for $10 for anyone that hasn’t been in before and would love to meet you!

Come see for yourself just how good you can feel after just a few minutes on the table and if I can’t open your eyes to how beneficial a mobility session can be

You can use the link in my bio or story to get your time reserved and for those of you that have been in to see me I would really appreciate you sharing this post or tagging a spouse, friend or teammate to help spread the word

Thank you everyone and I look forward to seeing some new faces!

How many of these can you consistently check off!?

One recurring theme I see with a lot of folks that are looking for fixes or relief end up seeking services like myself, massage or other health practitioners when the best solution is just giving your body its basic needs!

Things like quality sleep, nutrition, exercise and hydration are oftentimes neglected and ignored and you’re wondering why your body isn’t feeling as good as it could be 🤔

Before you start getting in the weeds or looking for a quick fix do your best to nail these basic goals and see how quickly your body responds!

Disclaimer: I’m not a doctor or nutritionist and there are just general guidelines most people are likely to benefit from, use it as you will 🙏🏼
