Feel tight through your lat and mid-back…
and like you can’t quite get a full breath in?

Most people immediately think:
“I need to stretch my back more”

But the real issue is usually this:

Your ribcage isn’t moving well.

And if your ribs can’t expand…
your breathing, rotation, and even shoulder movement all take a hit.

That’s where this drill comes in 👇

✅ Save this for when your back feels tight before a workout

He came in because he couldn’t play golf.

But that wasn’t really the problem.

He told me:
“I haven’t been able to get down on the floor and play with my kids… I just avoid it now.”

That’s when you realize—
this isn’t about golf.
It’s about life getting smaller.

Every time he tried to swing a club, his back would tighten up.
Every time he got on the ground, he’d feel stuck… or pay for it later.

So what did he do?
👉 Stopped playing
👉 Moved less
👉 Started feeling older than he actually is

Here’s the thing—
his back wasn’t “fragile”… it was just underprepared.

We didn’t chase pain.
We built him back up.

Fast forward a few weeks…

He’s back on the course.
But more importantly—
he’s on the floor playing with his kids again.

That’s the win.

If your back pain is starting to take things away from you—
golf, workouts, even time with your kids…

Let’s fix that.

DM me “GOLF” and I’ll help you figure out your next step.

Most golfers don’t lack swing skill—
they lack movement.

Stiff chest.
Limited thoracic rotation.
Poor shoulder blade control.

Leads to power loss + low back tightness

Try this:
Bent Over Thoracic Rotation on a Ball

✔ Opens the chest
✔ Trains the shoulder blade
✔ Improves rotation

If your swing feels tight or your back aches after golf…
it’s probably your body, not your swing.

👉 Save this for your next pre-round warm-up

Most people aren’t failing rehab…

They’re just being given the wrong version of it.

Quick fixes feel good
But they don’t hold up when life (or the gym) gets hard.

If your plan doesn’t include:
* Loading the painful area
* Building strength around it
* Progressing back to YOUR goals

You’re not rehabbing… you’re just managing symptoms.

At Momentum, we don’t just get you out of pain—
We build you a body that can handle what you want to do.

👉 DM “MOVE” and we’ll figure out what’s actually missing

A workshop is where learning stops being passive and starts becoming real.

It is not sitting back and listening
It is doing, practicing, building, and improving in real time

You walk in with questions
You leave with skills you can actually use

At Momentum Spine and Sport we do not just adjust and send you on your way
We teach you how to move better, train smarter, and stay pain free

When we host workshops at local gyms
It is not a lecture
It is hands on, real time coaching

If your workouts keep setting you back instead of moving you forward
It is time to experience a workshop that actually fixes the problem

DM us “WORKSHOP” to bring one to your gym

Huge thank you to the team at for having us out at the Level Up Games 2026 💪

We had an awesome time working with everyone in the recovery room—helping athletes stay moving with targeted soft tissue work between events.

Appreciate everyone who stopped by the table—met a ton of great people and saw some serious effort out there.

If you were there and something we worked on helped, or you’re still feeling it today, shoot me a message and we’ll point you in the right direction.

You keep stretching your shoulders.
You keep modifying lifts.
You keep avoiding anything overhead…

But nothing actually changes.

Here’s why 👇

Your shoulder doesn’t work alone.
If your mid-back (thoracic spine) is stiff or not moving well, your shoulder has to pick up the slack.

The problem isn’t always where it hurts.

Most people focus on the shoulder because that’s where they feel it…
But if you don’t address the area underneath it (your mid-back), you’re just chasing symptoms.

At our office, we don’t just treat the pain—
we figure out why it showed up in the first place.

Save this for your next upper body day.

This was a low back problem.

But if all we did was treat the low back…
it would’ve come right back.

Because every step you take running = force traveling from the ground → up your body

If the ankle can’t do its job…
the low back ends up doing more than it should

Not because the back wasn’t treated…
but because the system wasn’t fully built

That’s the difference.

At Momentum Spine and Sport, we don’t just chase pain —
we build you back up based on:
✔️ how you move
✔️ what your body is missing
✔️ what you actually want to get back to

No cookie-cutter plans. No random exercises.

Just a plan that makes sense for you.

DM us if you’re ready to get started.

Most golfers think their low back is the problem…

It’s usually not.

Your back is just the messenger.

If your hips don’t move 👉 your back rotates more than it should
If your hips aren’t stable 👉 your back tries to create power
If your T-spine is stiff 👉 your back picks up the slack

…and over time, that’s when the pain shows up.

The golfers we see aren’t “broken” —
they’re just moving around restrictions their body doesn’t trust.

Fix the hips.
Fix the T-spine.
The back stops taking the hit.

If your back tightens up after a round or starts barking mid-swing, there’s a reason behind it.

📩 DM “GOLF” and we’ll set you up with a FREE TPI Assessment

We’ll break down your movement, show you what’s actually causing it, and map out exactly how to fix it.

Here’s the truth most runners don’t want to hear:

You didn’t get injured because you run…
You got injured because your body wasn’t prepared to handle running.

Most people start running first…
Then after something starts hurting, they try to “add in strength training.”

But even then—
they just go through the motions.

Reps get done…
But nothing actually changes.

Because there’s a difference between:

👉 Moving through exercises
vs.
👉 Training with intention

If running keeps leading to the same aches and setbacks…
you’re probably missing this piece.

DM “RUN” and we’ll help you figure out what your body actually needs.
