You go to your doctor, PT, chiro, etc and this is what you hear:
“You have the worst arthritis in your knees I have ever seen” (yet you don’t have knee pain and you just ran a marathon)
”Your back is basically broken” (yet, you did 315 # deadlifts this am, no problem)
”How can you even walk? this is the worst image I have ever seen” (yet, you climbed the 3 flights of stairs to their office)
”You should NEVER box jump after age 30, never squat below parallel, never deadlift or bend forward (fill in the blank)”
If these are the opening conversations you have with your provider, you should be questioning and asking for better answers.
These types of comments out of the gate, without having a conversation, immediately instills fear of movement and catastrophizes injuries before knowing your individual story.
Random limits on movements, resting without reasoning, and avoidance without content has the potential to basically f*&% with your brain and does more harm than good.
Health care providers need to be better about seeing and hearing the person in front of them and their individual stories, so we can set them up for success.

Feel like you aren’t making progress because everything isn’t perfectly pain free?
Measuring progress can be confusing and frustrating at times especially when you continue to have pain/discomfort. Sometimes we become so PAIN focused that we have difficulty seeing the ”wins” in our rehab process.
Pain freaking sucks, no doubt about that. Attempt to spend more time focusing on these other metrics and your pain will have less power over you, making you feel more in control.

You don't need to be perfectly symmetrical
You don't need to foam roll every day to release your fascia
You don't need to contantly stretch a tight feeling muscle
You don't need 20 min of mobility work on joints that are already mobile

You DO NEED to be consistent with an exercise program, with your sleep duration and quality of sleep. You need movement often throughout the day, a solid nutrition plan and nurturing your mental health. Spend more time focusing on these - your body and mind will thank you.

Common scenario: I "hurt" my back/shoulder/knee/elbow (insert your own), I rested for 2-3 weeks, felt good, came back and went straight to the days workout and then you are "hurt again". Well guess what - rest is rarely the answer!! In those weeks of rest, what did you do to drive adaptations and rebuild your tissue tolerance and resilience? NOTHING!
When an injury happens, your body needs to rebuild and that includes such things as simple cardio movement, strength, mobility, nutrition, sleep, and stress management.
Example: If deadlifts are a pain generator - then lets start with banded PVC hinge work, then maybe progress to an elevated kettlebell deadlift, moving on to the trap bar and so on, gradually returning to your previous level. As I like to say - let's find a tolerable entry point and build from there.
Does this sound like you? Reach out and let me guide you back to doing the things you enjoy with strength and confidence.

Day 366! One year and one day since shoulder surgery. To say this last year has been a physical and emotional rollercoaster is an understatement. One year- its kind of a big deal! First few months of this was no joke. During the early stages, I also had the end of an era of supporting my kids for a total of 8 high school seasons of lacrosse, both of my kids graduated, which then meant one moving away to MN to start her nursing career, and the other starting college.
Rehab was so up and down as I was a bit slow to progress because I was also dealing with an ulnar neuropathy on my surgical side. As if the shoulder wasn't bad enough, ugh. However, I showed up every day to the gym, made progress with range of motion, then strength and bam, year 1 is done. I am not quite to where I was with my strength yet, but getting better every month. Tennis league is about to start, my serve is lackluster, but I am ready for the season!
I am so thankful for my family who have been my biggest supporters and fans. Cheers and clapping from the 8:30 crew throughout the year and especially the first time I got that PVC up over my head.
One of my goals was to actually be able to do the CrossFit Open this year at Rx and I did it!! and this old lady still managed to finish in the 90th percentile for my age group.
So, here's to building more strength, stamina and resiliency. Year 2, bring it!

THE MAGIC YOU ARE LOOKING FOR IS IN THE WORK YOU ARE AVOIDING.
I recently saw this and as a PT and CF coach it really resonates. So often I see people looking for that quick fix to their injury, or the avoidance of working on technique and mechanics in their barbell movements and wondering why they never get better.
When it comes to injuries, it takes WORK - there is no magic pill or this one exercise will fix you approach. If that were the case, we would heal and recover immediately and that's just not how it works. Trust the process, work hard, set your ego aside and just maybe the magic will happen.
Just ask Bridget! She has worked hard, not for days or weeks, but for years. She has had to work through setbacks with injuries, life stressors and more and she continues to push and persevere and this weekend the "magic" happened for her with that first pull up!

Frustrated with your injury because you still have some pain and feel like you aren't making progress. Here are some things to point out...

* Your pain flare-ups are less FREQUENT
* Your pain doesn't last as LONG
* Your pain INTENSITY is less
* Your ability to do an activity is for LONGER periods of time
* You are getting STRONGER and lifting more LOAD
* You are able to RECOVER better
* You feel more ENERGY
* Your FEAR around movement has become LESS

Just because you may still experience some pain, does not mean you are not making PROGRESS!! Your tissues are adapting and you are healing. Progress is measured with several variables, pain being only one of them. Stay the course.

RED-S: Relative Energy Deficiency in Sport is a condition that occurs when an athlete‘s nutritional fueling is insufficient to meet the demands of their training and daily activities. Essentially, the “energy in” is less than the “energy out.” This energy imbalance can impact multiple areas of the body, including: endocrine, metabolic, hematologic, cardiovascular, gastrointestinal and immune systems. It also affects psychological health.

Athletes with RED-S might exhibit a variety of symptoms, including:
*Frequent injuries: Repeated stress fractures, muscle strains and other injuries
*Delayed recovery: A harder time healing from injuries, taking longer to recover.
*Fatigue: Persistent tiredness and inability to recover from training sessions.
*Hormonal effects: For female athletes, irregular or loss of menstrual periods. For men, a hypogonadal state results in lower testosterone and decreased libido.
*Decreased performance: A noticeable decline in athletic performance such as running slower, reduced endurance, and impaired agility and coordination, despite rigorous training.
*Mood changes: Irritability, depression and anxiety.
*Gl issues: Frequent stomach problems, such as bloating and constipation.
Frequent illness: Recurrent colds or increased rate of “getting sick.”

With RED-S, your body is not receiving the proper amount of fuel for the demands placed upon it. Initially, a caloric deficit can bring about seemingly positive changes such as weight loss, increased energy and PR's in the gym. If this continues for too long, then s**t may happen. This used to be considered only a "female issue" because of amenorrhea (loss of period), but this condition is present with different signs/symptoms in men and in post-menopausal women. Many times people don't recognize the signs.

Long term implications may include: poor bone health, hormone imbalance, impaired metabolic and cardiovascular health.
If you have any concerns this may be you - please contact your physician. A team approach of nutritionist/dietician, physician and mental health provider can get you back on track.

It was build to a heavy deadlift today , and I witnessed so many PR's!
I love being a PT - getting people back to what they enjoy, including deadlifts. I also truly love being a CrossFit coach. Today was definitely one of those days when I was able to witness improvements in strength no matter the age, fitness level and experience. With a quick change in mindset, doubt was transformed into confidence. There was camaraderie and support among athletes, and even a few tears. Truly, this is part of my why...

Afraid to move on in the gym because your movement isn't "perfect"? Maybe a bit better approach is to think to move consistently, and not fixate on moving "perfectly".
So many times, we get hung up on wanting to be perfectly balanced, with symmetry in our movements. But guess what? We aren't perfectly symmetrical beings and that's OK!
Instead of focusing on perfection and this endless cycle of thoughts ie. "my right glute (insert body part) isn't firing" and therefore I will not squat until it is - shift your focus on building overall strength and staying active. Could we make some minor improvements to the squat pictured here? Sure, but should it be a limiting factor to working out - NO!

Don't get me wrong, mechanics and safety come first to learn a movement, but it doesn't have to be "perfect" to progress. You are always going to work on improved movement while you are being consistent. :) Just show up!

Most certainly, if a significant fault/imbalance is causing pain and/or limiting your performance, that's different and targeted exercises can help. For the majority of people it's consistency that is the missing key.

Our bodies are amazing and great at adapting to differences.
SHOW UP, KEEP MOVING AND KEEP GETTING STRONGER!
