It’s a natural response to want to hold your breath as you brace for a movement you know is going to cause you pain. But did you know that can make it worse?

Instead, try the opposite. Take a big deep breath in.. then exhale.. and THEN make your next move.

Learn to use your breath instead of working against it. 😮‍💨

Always learning from each other and sharpening those clinical skills!

Runners 🏃‍♂️ before you jump into calf raises, start here..

If your calves or Achilles feel tight, achy, or overworked, stretching usually isn’t the answer. What your lower leg really needs first is isometric loading.. simple holds that calm symptoms down and prep the tendon for more strength work.

🟠 Double-leg isometric hold
A great first step to settle discomfort and get the Achilles comfortable with load again.

🟠 Single-leg isometric hold (unweighted)
More demand on the tendon and calf, still controlled and pain-friendly.

🟠 Single-leg isometric hold (weighted)
This is where runners start building the strength they actually need for hills, speed work and longer mileage.

Isometrics are your foundation. They reduce irritation, improve tendon tolerance, and set you up for the heavy calf strengthening that keeps you running consistently.

Start with holds. Load them up. Let your calves get strong enough to handle the miles you love.

After 6 years of building this practice and faithfully serving her patients, Dr. Jessica is leaving Memphis for a new adventure. She'll be returning to her military roots and working as a PT for the Marine Special Forces, and we are both devastated and thrilled for her!

She has been pivotal in building 901PT into who we are today, and she will always be a part of who we are.

Her dedication to clinical excellence and her relationships with her patients has made her second to none, and we're so grateful for how she's changed us in her time here.

All the love and best wishes in this new season, Jessica!! 🖤

Heavy lifting is safe. It's effective. And it's one of the most powerful things an older adult can do for their long-term health.⁠

The idea that you should only use light weights as you age isn't just outdated, it's costing people their strength, their independence, and their quality of life.⁠

Weakness is the real danger. Not the weights.⁠

Your bones get denser when they're loaded. ⁠

Your joints are more protected when the muscles around them are strong. ⁠

And that process doesn't stop at 60 or 70 or 80. It only stops when we stop challenging the body.⁠

You don't need hours in the gym. ⁠

2-3 sets, once or twice a week, working at a weight that actually challenges you, that's enough to change everything.

I injured my back in high school and spent the next 10-15 years afraid of my own body.⁠

I didn't even realize how much it had changed the way I moved, or the way I treated my patients.⁠

Confidence and movement are more connected than most people think. ⁠

When we don't trust our bodies, we move less. And when we move less, we don't heal.⁠

The thing that changed everything for me? Positive experiences. ⁠

Starting light. Proving to myself, one rep at a time, that my back could handle it.⁠

Your story isn't written. 💪

Last month’s free workshop for women was such a hit, we’re bringing it back on March 10th at 6:30pm here at 901PT! 🙌

If you’re a woman in mid-life who wants to be proactive about strength & bone health amidst hormonal changes, this workshop is for you.
 
In one hour, we’ll cover what most women never get told until it’s a problem.

• the menopause bone-loss window and why timing matters
• hormones + bone health 
• why muscle is the longevity lever
• estrogen + inflammation 
• what “lifting heavy” actually means in real life

Monday we talked about strict pull-ups and how to scale them if your shoulder isn’t loving the vertical pull.

Today, we’re talking about the other beast in the gym.

Kipping pull-ups aren’t just strength. They’re skill. And when that skill gets sloppy, your shoulders usually pay the price.

If you’re feeling pain with kipping, it’s often not about “doing less.” It’s about cleaning up the movement itself.

Can you control your hollow?
Can you own your extension?
Can you move between them without flailing or dumping into your shoulders?

Small, controlled kip swings build the muscle memory your shoulders are asking for. Staying engaged. Staying tight. Earning the rhythm instead of chasing it.

Dial in the positions first.
Speed and volume can come later.

Your shoulders will thank you. 💪

Education is empowerment.

These conversations matter. When women understand what’s happening inside their bodies, they stop blaming themselves and start asking better questions.

The right information doesn’t just explain symptoms. It opens the door to better support, smarter decisions, and stronger long-term health.
