Optimus Athlete's Performance

Optimus Athlete's Performance Performance Physical Therapy Hello
I'm Blake! The Founder and Owner of OPTIMUS Athletes Performance.

Originally, my passion for movement optimization and sports performance came from multiple injuries I had while playing baseball as a teenager. Following two elbow surgeries and recurrent back pain; I received multiple rounds of physical therapy. My therapists were eventually able to help me return to play, although I saw a disconnect between myself as an athlete and the exercises or modalities my therapists were using to help me recover each session. I wanted to get back to what I loved to do but my therapist never seemed to connect with my desire as an athlete for performance. So now, after finishing my undergraduate degree at Clemson University and my Doctorate of Physical Therapy at the Medical University of South Carolina (MUSC), I can make a difference; not only in all my clients recovery journey but also in their performance; whether on a field or in their recreational activities my care is centered around the athlete.

Athletes don’t need just strength in the weight room. They need more stability in force absorption and power in force production to generate more force in sport.

If you are doing 3x10 clamshells (insert any other basic PT exercise) in PT as an athlete without ever building stability in athletic positions your mechanics on the field will continue to be crap and the liklihood of injury returning stays high.

DM ”Screen” and I’ll take a look at your movements and tell you what your missing link is.

I use it scrapping / IASTM to improve tissue glide, calm down overprotective muscles, and get irritated areas moving the way they’re supposed to again. That’s why athletes often feel lighter, smoother, and are able to move better. They’re not just less sore…

If you’ve been foam rolling the same tight spot with no real change, send me a message and I’ll let you know if you’re a good fit for this.

If you’re a baseball athlete dealing with recurring elbow tightness, soreness after throwing, or a dip in velocity, send me a message. I’ll tell you exactly what needs to be checked.

Why do we use TheraStraps so much to help our athlete’s (yellow strap wrapping around body)?

The goal is to add load and directional or movement-based cues to the body so that we can enstill better patterning for specific movements.

By cuing the body in different directions of rotation we are able to give the body a better “map” of where to create tension so the athlete can feel the correct muscles and areas engaging.

If you are an athlete and struggling to “feel a movement” send me a DM - we’ll see what link is missing.

When a muscle is locked up, guarded, or not firing the way it should, needling helps reset the system so you can move better and without lingering tension.

If you’re curious whether dry needling would help your specific issue, send me a message and I’ll point you in the right direction.

Most athletes don’t realize this, but power isn’t just a “strength” problem… It's a force-transfer problem.

Performance PT is about more than pain relief. It’s about making sure you can train harder, recover faster, and compete at the level you’re capable of.

Generic exercises work great... if you're a generic person. 🏋️‍♂️🤷‍♀️
But you're not—and neither is your sport, your goals, or your injury.

Doing random stretches or “PT-style” workouts from YouTube might feel productive… until that nagging pain comes back (again). Real progress comes from movement tailored to you—your body, your sport, your season.

I don’t hand out cookie-cutter programs. I build plans that work—on the field, in the gym, or wherever you perform.
