Engineered Durability.

Quick fixes fade. Pain patches wear off. Temporary relief doesn’t hold up when you put real load on your body.

At Linchpin Performance in Louisville, we don’t chase short-term solutions—we engineer durability. That means:

Teaching your body to handle stress today and 10 years from now

Building strength and resilience that outlasts quick fixes

Giving high-performers (runners, lifters, executives, weekend warriors) a clear path to move without limitations

Durability isn’t luck. It’s strategy. It’s reps. It’s precision.

Whether you’re trying to lift heavier, run faster, or just keep up with life’s demands...our process builds more than pain free fitness. We build durable performance that lasts.

Stop wasting time on quick fixes. Start investing in engineered durability.

At Linchpin Performance, we work with fitness-forward people who expect more: runners, lifters, executives, and anyone who refuses to settle.

We know that being told to “just stop” isn’t an answer.

For active adults, athletes, and high-performing professionals, stopping training or pushing pause on your lifestyle feels like pressing pause on who you are.

That’s why our approach to physical therapy in Louisville is different. We don’t just focus on pain—we focus on helping runners return to running, lifters return to lifting, and busy professionals stay strong and injury-free so they can perform in and out of the gym.

You deserve a path back that respects your time, your goals, and the life you’ve worked hard to build.

Because for people like you, “good enough” will never be good enough.

🚫 Slow down? Settle? Break down? Not in my house.

These aren’t just funny comics — they’re the truth about what happens when you train with purpose and take a proactive approach to your body.

Whether you’re a parent, a business owner, or a high-performing professional… the reason you can still move, lift, and perform like you’re in your prime comes down to one thing:
👉 Consistent, intentional work that keeps you strong, mobile, and pain-free.

At Linchpin Performance, we don’t just get you out of pain — we keep you ahead of it.
💪 1-on-1 performance physical therapy
🏋️ Strength & mobility training
🛡 Injury prevention & longevity care
📈 Data-driven progress tracking

Because when you lift heavy s**t, protect your joints, and fix problems before they own you… you don’t just “hang-on” — you keep getting better.

📍 Louisville, KY | Serving athletes, active adults, and high performers who refuse to settle.

Runner Strength Drill: Single Leg Bridge + Psoas March
�Looking for a simple yet powerful way to improve your running?

This is one of our favorite drills we give runners in the clinic.
�✅ Builds single-leg stability�✅ Trains hip flexor + glute co-contraction�✅ Mimics mid-stride demands�✅ Promotes controlled eccentric return

It’s a high-ROI movement for performance and injury prevention—especially especially if you struggle with feeling uneven, losing power on one side, or dealing with the same nagging aches mile after mile

💡Pro tip: Explode through the drive. Return slow and controlled.
👉 Runners: Start working this into your cross-training routine 2x/week and feel the difference.
📍Based in Louisville? We help runners move better, run faster, and stay pain-free. DM us to schedule a runners analysis.

Blood Flow Restriction Therapy in Louisville – A Smarter Rehab Solution

Looking for a faster way to recover from injury in Louisville?

At Linchpin Performance, we now offer Blood Flow Restriction (BFR) Training—the same science-backed technology used by pro sports teams and the best military organization in the world (USA)

BFR allows us to rebuild muscle strength and endurance with low-load resistance training, reducing joint stress while speeding up healing.

That means:
✔️ Faster strength gains after injury
✔️ Preserved muscle mass during recovery
✔️ Joint-friendly rehab for knees, shoulders, and more
✔️ Progress without pain or heavy loading

💡 It’s ideal for active adults, athletes, high-performing professionals—and anyone who refuses to waste time on slow and inefficient results.

📍Louisville Weightlifters: Physical therapy for shoulder pain, front rack mobility & barbell injuries—without stopping your lifts.

If barbell training flares up your shoulder, back, or wrists, you’re not broken—and you don’t need a month off.

At Linchpin Performance in Louisville, KY, we specialize in physical therapy for weightlifters and CrossFit athletes who want to fix pain without missing training days.

This isn’t generic rehab. This is what high-performers need:
• Barbell movement analysis (front rack, squat, overhead)
• Technique cues to fix pain while lifting
• Targeted strength & mobility programs for serious athletes

📸 In this session: A Linchpin therapist coaching a local athlete through front rack positioning to reduce shoulder stress and protect the upper back and wrists—real-time performance therapy that gets results.

We are so excited to introduce the newest addition to the Linchpin Performance team— Kayla Phelps! She will be filling the admin role and handling all the logistics that keep us running smoothly. Here’s a little bit about her:

“My name is Kayla Phelps and I was born here in Louisville. I graduated from UK in 2012, but have stayed true to being a Cards fan! I have an 8-year-old boy, Hunter, who has been my greatest blessing. I have worked at Orangetheory Fitness for the last five years, where I will continue to work as I start this new role. In my spare time I like to spend time at Blairwood, see live music, hike and explore local restaurants/breweries/coffee shops. I am looking forward to working with the Linchpin Performance team!”

Everyone wants to “stay in the game” — but most people are just hoping their body holds up.

Hope is not a strategy.

Longevity isn’t about doing more. It’s about doing what matters — with purpose, precision, and the kind of guidance that keeps you performing without breaking down.

At Linchpin Performance, we don’t waste time.
We coach every rep like it counts… because it does.

✅ Confident with communication (email, phone, text)
✅ Comfortable with tools like Google Drive, Slack, etc.
✨ Bonus if you’ve got experience with client support or marketing!

You’ll be helping with scheduling, keeping things running smoothly behind the scenes, and being a friendly first point of contact.

“Stay in your lane and drive fast.”

It’s a quote I’ve held onto for years—know what you do well, and work to be the best at it.

At Linchpin Performance, our lane is helping runners in Louisville recover from injuries, prevent future ones, and perform at their best. Whether you’re working through pain or simply want a guide to keep you running strong for years to come—we’ve got you.

But when it comes to shoes, fittings, and gear to keep you on the road? That’s not our lane. That’s where Louisville comes in. And they’re crushing it.

We’ve recently connected with Fleet Feet to help better serve the runners in our community—and after visiting this morning, I’m even more fired up about it.

They took a full 3D scan of my foot, analyzed my gait and pressure distribution, and used all of that to make data-driven recommendations on shoes, insoles, and even custom orthotics if needed. Their process is dialed in—and their staff? Next level.

This is who we’re pointing our runners to when it comes to gear that supports performance and longevity. We’re proud to be aligned with a team that knows their lane and drives...(runs) fast too. 👟💨

FYI - drop in and check out a special deal we are offering for their customers.
