Hamstring pain when sprinting or deadlifting?

That deep ache high up in the back of your thigh might be proximal hamstring tendinopathy—a stubborn tendon issue that can flare every time you push explosively.

The solution isn’t to stop moving—it’s to train smarter.

Two of the best starting points are:
-Short-lever bridge holds – builds strength while calming tendon pain.
-Long-lever single-leg RDL holds – safely loads the tendon in a stretched position for resilience.

These isometrics reduce pain sensitivity, keep you training, and lay the foundation for getting back to sprinting, lifting, and sport without setbacks.

If hamstring pain is holding you back from running fast or pulling heavy, follow us for proven rehab + performance strategies that actually stick.

Numbers don't lie

Is your child REALLY ready to return to sports after their injury?

We want our kids back on the field. But going back too soon can hurt them again - and worse.

Here's what most parents don't know:

- Kids who return without proper testing get hurt again 3 times more often
- The second injury is usually worse than the first one
- "Feeling fine" doesn't mean they're ready

How We Keep Your Child Safe:

Strength Testing
-We check if both legs are equally strong. Even small differences can cause new injuries.

Movement Check
-We watch how your child moves. Injuries change how kids run and jump - even after they feel better.

Sport-Specific Tests
-Basketball players need different skills than soccer players. We test what matters for YOUR child's sport.

Mental Check
-Is your child scared to get hurt again? Fear can cause injuries too.

Don't guess if they're ready. Get the facts.
Worried about your child's return to sports?

Your PT gives you exercises... then sends you home to figure out the rest alone

Most rehab stops at the clinic door. You get your exercises, maybe some generic advice, and then you're on your own for everything else—choosing the right shoes, knowing when to progress, understanding what's normal vs. concerning.

Here's the problem: Traditional rehab ignores 90% of your recovery journey.

That's why we created custom AI tools for our patients. Like this runner recovering from back surgery—we built her a personalized ChatGPT that knows:
- Her specific injury and surgery details
- Her current rehab phase and timeline
- Her running goals and restrictions
- Her movement patterns and limitations

Now when she's shoe shopping, she's not guessing. She's getting personalized recommendations based on HER rehab needs, not generic advice from a sales associate.

This is the future of rehabilitation—tech that extends your care beyond our walls and keeps you progressing safely toward your goals.

While other clinics stick to outdated methods, we're revolutionizing recovery with AI that actually understands YOUR journey.

What is Prehab & Why Do You Need It? 🤔

Do you actively work to avoid injuries in your sport? Or are you just hoping for the best?

Prehab isn’t just some extra stretching—it’s a proactive plan to keep you strong, mobile, and injury-free so you can stay in the game longer.

Just like blood pressure and blood sugar have healthy norms, your joints and muscles have baseline strength & mobility levels they need to function at their best.

🔹 Functional movement = better performance & fewer injuries
🔹 Better ROM & strength = more power & resilience in your sport
🔹 Hercules Prehab = targeting common injury spots BEFORE they happen

The key? Prehab needs to be specific to YOU and YOUR sport. Stop guessing—start training smarter. Test your mobility & strength monthly and keep yourself at the top of your game.

1x a month of a through diagnostic of your joints and muscles + 2-3x a week of 20-30 min of prehab work= avoiding sidelines and surgery....sounds like a solid deal to us!
