Get to know Axis Ambassador Red Gerard! 🏂

Red is a professional snowboarder who grew up right here in Silverthorne and first captured the world’s attention at the 2018 Winter Olympics, becoming the youngest American snowboarder to win Olympic gold. Since then, he’s continued to raise the bar with consistent performances, creative riding, and a deep love for the sport that started when he was just two years old.

In recent years, Red has added back-to-back X Games Slopestyle gold medals, multiple Dew Tour wins, and an official qualification for the 2026 Winter Olympics in Milan–Cortina. Alongside competition success, he’s also made his mark in backcountry filming, showcasing his evolving style and passion for storytelling on snow.

We love seeing a local Summit County athlete leading the next generation of snowboarding, and we’re proud to have Red as a longtime member of the Axis Ambassador team!

Falls and ski-related injuries are part of life in a mountain community, but addressing them early makes a huge difference. A clear diagnosis, the right mix of hands-on care, and simple at-home exercises can help restore strength, protect injured muscles, and get you back to the activities you love with more confidence.

We appreciate the recommendation and are always here to support our community through ski season and beyond at Axis Sports Medicine!

As we wrap up our year-end reflections, we’re spotlighting the areas we treated most in 2025— a true snapshot of how active and driven our community really is.

This year, we treated over 13,500 lower extremities, 9,000 spines, and 7,000 upper extremities. These numbers might look clinical at a glance, but behind each one is someone working to move better, feel stronger, and get back to what they love.

We’re grateful you trust us with your care. Here’s to more strength, resilience, and progress in the year ahead.

We're continuing with our year-end highlights, and this week we’re celebrating one big number that represents thousands of small, meaningful steps forward.

Through the end of October, we facilitated 27,356 visits. That’s 27,356 moments of progress, hard work, trust, and determination. Every visit tells a story, and we never take for granted the privilege of being part of our patients’ journeys.

We’re honored to support this community and can’t wait to continue that work in 2026.

We love getting feedback like this.

We’re grateful for patients who trust us to help fine-tune their movement, whether that’s addressing specific problem areas or building a stronger, safer routine before and after the gym. Creating tailored exercises and stretches is a big part of how we help people move with more confidence and less pain.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience and for being part of the Axis Sports Medicine community.

Strong shoulders start with a stable foundation, and this exercise is a great example of why that matters.

In this reel, Meredith demonstrates a movement that targets the middle trapezius, a key muscle that helps keep your shoulder blade steady so your arm can move safely and efficiently. When this muscle is doing its job, it supports better posture, smoother overhead movement, and less strain on the neck and shoulders. Focusing on slow, controlled motion and proper alignment is essential to activating it safely and effectively.

These small details make a big difference in building strength, improving control, and reducing strain during everyday movements and workouts. Check out our video collection for more guided exercises and form tips you can use at home or in the gym to keep your body moving well.

We’re continuing our year-end roundup by taking a closer look at one of our favorite parts of 2025: our Wellness Series.

Back in May, 122 attendees joined us across seven educational classes designed to help people move, learn, and feel better in their daily lives. These sessions are all about giving our community tools that build confidence and support long-term wellness, and we’re grateful for every person who participated.

Here’s to even more learning and growth in the year ahead.

In our last video, Meredith showed how to strengthen your rotator cuff with external shoulder rotation by your side. This time, she’s taking it up to shoulder height.

External rotation at 90 degrees is an important progression, especially for anyone who lifts, reaches, or does overhead activities. It helps build control, stability, and strength where your shoulder needs it most.

Here, Meredith demonstrates how to perform the movement with proper form so you can practice it safely and get the most benefit.

As we get closer to the end of the year, we’ve been taking a moment to look back at everything our team and community accomplished in 2025. There’s so much to be proud of, and we wanted to share a few highlights.

One of those things is Axis Ascent. This year, 103 people took on the challenge, showing resilience, dedication, and a willingness to push for new goals. Seeing our community literally and figuratively climb to new heights continues to inspire us every day.

Thanks to everyone who showed up for themselves and for each other. What a way to kick off our year-end reflections!
