Tight, cranky hamstrings? It’s not just about stretching them out

Your hamstrings need strength and control—especially at the tendon—to actually feel and function better.

These exercises help:
- Build tendon strength
- Improve resilience under load
- Reduce that nagging tightness that keeps coming back

Because avoiding movement doesn’t fix the problem… loading it the right way does

If your hamstrings are always “tight,” it might be time to train them differently, not just stretch more.

Strong community. Strong purpose. 💪🏼

Today we showed up to support the Frank Grote Cancer Screening Awareness Row-a-Thon at Raccoon River CrossFit — raising awareness for the importance of early detection.

Thanks to Kaylee and Cody for putting on a fantastic event.

“My back hurts… but when’s the last time you actually moved your body?
When’s the last time you looked up from your phone?
When’s the last time you got adjusted?

Pain doesn’t just show up for no reason — it’s usually your body asking for something it’s been missing.

More movement.
Better positions.
A little care.

Stop ignoring it… start doing something about it.

April is C section awareness month and we’ll be posting a series of videos all about the anatomy, rehab and recovery.

It’s a MAJOR abdominal surgery, often one with very few resources provided before and after. This is where we come in - tailored PT treatments, fitting your specific needs, whether it’s your first c section, second or more!

In this video you can see ALL the layers of tissue that are disrupted to get baby out safely while also ensuring mom’s safety too! It’s no easy feat.

We pride ourselves on providing care from prenatal to postpartum (no this isn’t “over” after maternity leave) and can be upwards of 12-18 months to make sure your needs are met and body is properly taken care of!

Stay tuned next week for what the first few weeks of rehab could look like after baby is born!

Not every exercise is going to work the same for every person—and that’s the point.

What helps one person might not help the next, and that doesn’t mean the exercise is “bad”… it just means it’s not the right fit for you right now.

That’s why we focus on personalized plans of care—so you’re doing what actually works for your body, your goals, and where you’re starting.

Not just another running clinic… here’s why we’re doing this

We see so many young athletes who love running and being active but don’t always have the tools to stay strong, prevent injuries, and actually enjoy it long term.

That’s where this comes in.

We wanted to create something that helps build confidence, teaches better movement, and gives them a solid foundation early on—so they can keep doing what they love without constantly dealing with pain.

It’s not about being the fastest.
It’s about moving well, staying healthy, and having fun doing it.

If that sounds like something your athlete could benefit from, we’d love to have them join us

🚨🗣️ Big opportunity for young athletes to level up this season!

We’re hosting a Running Clinic for 5th–8th grade athletes. It will be led by varsity track athletes Jayna (distance) and Katie (sprints) bringing both sides of the sport together for a well-rounded experience. 🏃🏼‍♀️

In this 2-hour clinic, athletes will:
• Improve running form and efficiency
• Learn mobility + stretching for injury prevention
• Go through athlete screenings to catch problem areas early

Whether you have a sprinter or distance runner, or just a younger athlete in general. This is your chance to help then move better, run faster, and stay healthy all season.

Spots are limited — message us to get your athlete signed up! More information coming Monday!!

Most of us don’t spend much time with our shoulders in extended or overhead positions… And over time, that lack of exposure can lead to stiffness, weakness, and pain.

We see this all the time—people avoid these movements because they feel uncomfortable, but that’s often exactly what their body needs. If you never train those positions, your body won’t build the strength or mobility to support them.

The result? Tightness, limited movement, and recurring neck & shoulder pain.

These exercises are designed to safely challenge your shoulders overhead and into extension so you can move better, feel stronger, and actually address the root of the issue—not just work around it.

Some thoughts on Tiger. I hope her gets the help he needs. The truth is most people don’t want to rely on medication. They just want their life back.

Pain medication can sometimes be helpful short term, but long term solutions usually involve restoring movement, strength, and confidence in your body again.

Thought we had Jon with our little “bathroom water surprise” prank… but he caught on just in time. Still got a tiny win, though. April Fools at the clinic never disappoints!
