Resting is relative because everyone has a different level of activity.

A lot of times when people get hurt, they’re told to just stop and wait for it to heal. And yes, sometimes that’s appropriate. But most of the time, resting doesn’t have to mean doing nothing.

If your shoulder is hurting, does that mean you can’t walk, run, or train your lower body? Probably not.

Every case is different, but the goal is usually to maintain the highest level of fitness possible with the least amount of modification necessary, while choosing movements that feel safe.

That way, the injured area has space to heal while the rest of your body keeps getting all the benefits of staying active.

Rehab doesn’t always mean stopping. Sometimes it just means adjusting.

If you’re dealing with IT band pain and your go-to is foam rolling directly on it trying to “stretch it”… you might want to rethink that.

The IT band itself doesn’t really stretch the way muscle does. It’s dense connective tissue, so even though it may feel tight, rolling directly on it isn’t always the best answer.

Instead, try focusing on the areas around it like your glutes, hamstrings, and hip flexors. Those can influence tension and movement around the IT band.

Sometimes the best way to calm something down isn’t attacking the painful spot, but improving the areas around it. You might get a lot more bang for your buck that way.

Teaching someone the curtsy lunge can be a bit tricky, but the benefits are worth it.

It’s different from a regular lunge because crossing the leg behind midline puts the glute med on stretch, which increases the demand on the hips and challenges lumbopelvic control more than your standard lunge.

That’s usually the goal here. Targeting the hips to build better control.

Because when you improve control in one area, it often carries over and helps improve movement in other areas too.

A huge mistake in ACL rehab is rushing the timeline and trying to get back to sport too soon.

We get it. Your sport matters to you. We feel the same way. But just because you’re feeling good doesn’t always mean you’re ready.

There are specific tests and benchmarks that need to be met to truly be prepared. In fact, research shows waiting at least 9 months can significantly reduce the risk of re-tear.

We want you back as fast as possible too, but more importantly, we want you back for good.

Trust the process. It’s worth it.

Rehab is really just training in the presence of injury.

That means you don’t have to stop being active. You just train with the right adjustments. Maybe that’s modifying certain movements or temporarily avoiding positions while your body heals and gets stronger.

We never want you to feel like you have to sit on the sidelines.

Instead, we treat you like a real person with real goals. The things that matter to you don’t get put on hold. We just scale them appropriately.

Just like training, rehab starts small… and builds.
So you can get back to doing what you love, the way you want to do it.

Our knee workshop with CrossFit OYL - HYROX, Group Fitness & Personal Training this past weekend was a success! Thank you to everyone who came!

Helping people move better to live healthier lives is a big part of what we love to do, and workshops are one of our favorite ways to do it.

During these sessions, we break down practical strategies, exercises, and movement concepts you can start using right away. The goal is to give you a better understanding of your body and a starting point toward moving and feeling better.

Always a great time connecting with the community and helping people take that first step.

If you’re returning to sport, you should always be tested before you go back. Period.

Objective testing matters. It gives us real numbers to track progress over time and helps take the guesswork out of your return.

If you’re not being tested and re-tested throughout your rehab, you may not be getting the full picture of where you stand. You deserve that clarity and confidence before getting back out there.

This is why objective testing exists: to make sure you’re truly ready, not just hoping you are.

It’s just one piece of the puzzle, but an important one. Let us help you get there.

🛑 Pain isn’t always a red flag, but when it is, you need to know the difference.

And when we say “red flag,” we don’t mean emergency… just that it deserves a little more attention.

Two simple things to watch for:
➡️ Pain that stops you from doing an activity
➡️ Pain that feels more intense than it should during easy tasks

Those are usually signs it’s time to reassess and actually do something about it.

Pain is a normal part of being human, but sometimes your body just needs a little extra help getting back on track.

Dry needling is one of the tools we use to help calm down tissue and decrease pain.

Pain is often the biggest thing holding people back from progressing, so sometimes the first step is simply getting that under control.

Once pain is more manageable, we can push the exercises a bit more, build strength, and actually start creating long-term change.

Dry needling isn’t the end goal. It’s a way to help you tolerate the work that gets you better.

If you’ve been curious about it, send us a DM and let’s chat.

If you notice in this video, the humerus is positioned slightly below 90° of flexion, and then Dr. Bailey had this client protract their shoulder to get even further away from the body.

This allows us to train the shoulder external rotators in a position other than neutral.

Why does that matter?

Because your shoulder doesn’t live in neutral. Everyday tasks and training put you in all kinds of positions, especially with the arm elevated and reaching away from you.

The more you can build strength and tolerance in those positions, the better prepared your shoulder will be to handle real-life demands.

Train where you need to be strong.

At Elevation Athletics, we focus on active results for active people by helping you get back to the things you love without feeling held back. This isn’t your typical physical therapy. We understand the demands of training, performance, and pushing your limits.

Our goal isn’t to slow you down. It’s to help you keep going, progress, and reach those goals with confidence.
