13 Oct Step Downs: Does direction matter?
Step downs are a stable in my lower extremity rehab progressions and for good reason. You can isolate/bias one leg without any "cheating" using the other leg like on squats, deadlifts, or lunge variations. Furthermore, depending on which direction (forward, sideways, backwards) the step...
13 Oct Monster Walks with Band
We've covered ton's of different types of banded glute activation drills here on our page. One of the most important things to consider when doing a monster walk is to PAUSE and MOVE SLOW. That brief bit of time on one leg should be...
13 Oct Half Kneeling Chop Isometrics
Shown here is one of our favorite introductory exercises for core and pillar stabilization. You must FIRST MASTER THE BASICS AND FUNDAMENTALS before moving into more progressed "fancy" stuff!! One of the biggest mistakes we see with the chop is people simply leaning into...
13 Oct Gaining Terminal Knee Extension
Gaining full active terminal knee extension is one of the most important things after any knee injury or surgery, especially after an ACLr. While there are many more “fancy” drills I incorporate from time to time, the single most important thing I emphasize to...
13 Oct Hip Prep
Hip prep is a series of 6 exercises. I use it with my patients to prime the glutes and lower body in general before getting into more dynamic and plyometric activities. I will make the statement right now: if done RIGHT, it's an absolute...
13 Oct Combination Exercises for the Legs
About to go on soapbox…I absolutely hate hearing people say that physical therapy is boring or not challenging. When in PT, you should absolutely be pushed smartly by a DOCTOR OF PHYSICAL THERAPY (that knows and respects tissue healing timeframes). When you get stronger,...
13 Oct Running Analysis and Correction
Repost a series of stories we posted a month ago on a running analysis and subsequent running correction + drills I used with a collegiate cross country runner. Would love to hear what you guys think.🔊 Sound off in the comments! With movement correction...
13 Oct Lunge Matrixes
These are some of my favorite lunge matrixes I use with my patients. Of course, you need to start with teaching each movement in isolation before combining them. I typically start programming these in when I'm switching to a more power based cycle, after...
13 Oct Tri-planar Hip Mobility Flow
When it comes to “warming up” and mobility work before lifting, it’s more about priming the nervous system than it is actually physiologically “warming up” the tissues or “lengthening them out.” So I’d much rather staying moving throughout my mobility warm up than hold...
12 Oct Install Night Lights
Education: Walking in the dark is one of the most common causes for falls and injuries. Instead of getting up in the middle of the night and grabbing the walls hoping you won’t trip, install a nightlight! Nightlights are an excellent addition to your home...
