Sports Chiropractic and Virtual Health and Movement Coaching to level up your fitness and active lif

I became a Sports Chiropractor (Masters Degree is Sports Injury Rehabilitation) to help people overcome frustrating setbacks in their fitness or sport so they can enjoy the thrill of getting, faster, stronger, and better at what they love. I work hands-on in the clinic and coach online clients virtually to help them overcome pains, injuries, and mobility issues that can limit progress in the gym or box. My passion is enabling you to enjoy your fitness and recreation to the fullest - without the limitations of pain, injury, or lost mobility.

To fix my shoulder pain I had to strengthen the deep muscles in every position...

My favorite exercise to strengthen the long position of the external rotators is:

The Knee Propped External Rotation

Key Points

🔹 slow is better than fast here

🔹 posture is key

🔹 keep your shoulder blade low

🔹 no rounding forward of the shoulder

🔹 pause at the bottom

✔️ The slow movement allows all of the deep stabilizing muscles of the shoulder to coordinate and work together

Back Pain? Shoulder Pain?

The High Plank hits 2 🐦 with 1 🪨...
(does anybody actually throw rocks at birds?!😳)

You've probably heard that you need to train your core if you want to fix back problems but do you know which core exercises protect your back?

It's not situps 🤦‍♂️

The front plank in the high position or low position is a great way to train your core to stabilize and protect your back.

I've been doing these in a low position for years and recently started adding weight for 2 minute holds and I'm no longer hurting my back as easily as I used to. 💪

As I started experimenting with high planks I noticed that it engaged my serratus anterior for better scapular stability which is one of the keys when you get to the root of a lot of shoulder problems. 🤕

Let me know what BACK or SHOULDER problems are getting in your way and I'll send over a free training I did on how to fix movement dysfunction. 🏋️‍♂️

I love the challenge, but sometimes I get in over my head 😅

I had so much fun with the Spartan Beast 21k last year that I wanted to do it again, but I made a mistake...

8 miles in, the side of my right lower leg below the knee started hurting and it just got worse the further I went.

For the last 2 miles, it hurt too much to run so I had to walk out the rest of the event.

I could have prevented this from happening if I had trained my legs with more unstable trail running, but I summer fun kept me distracted from trail-specific training 🤦‍♂️

My general fitness was good enough for the event from regular CrossFit training, but my legs weren't ready for that much running off-trail.

If you'd like to see what I'm doing to heal up my leg, I'll be sharing the Newest Guidelines for Sports Injury Healing in a free LIVE training this Thursday.

Live and Learn! 😆

⚠️Every time you sit, your glutes turn off. 🪫

This might be why your back hurts or gets tight and is one of the reasons I kept hurting my back again and again...
🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

I didn't have a daily plan to turn my glutes back on, so I ended up with tightness, pain, and vulnerability in the lower back.

I've been researching and testing this kind of thing for 13 years and have been able to help thousands of others fix problems in their back and now I'm sharing the best of what actually works.

If you'd like to attend this week's free LIVE training where you'll learn my favorite tricks for waking up the glutes to protect your lower back...

just type "ME!" and I'll send you the link

A tool is only as good as the person using it...

Maybe you've tried foam rolling but didn't feel like it helped or maybe the tension in your muscles came back.

I've been there, but I knew there had to be a solution so I kept experimenting and researching.

If you don't have the time or interest to spend hours of your day researching mobility, you don't have to because I share the best of the best each week in my free private group: Move Rx | Pain-Free Mobility for Crossfitters over 40

In this week's free Thursday LIVE training, I'll be sharing the top 3 strategies I use on the foam roller to break through limiting tightness and increase mobility

For me and my followers that means: more flexibility, less pain, and less tightness in less time.

3 Ways to Improve Mobility with a Foam Roller

Do you love or hate your foam roller? 😆
