I’ve got a love/hate relationship with running.
Running is challenging, but not being able to run is even more challenging!
This postpartum body is forcing me to rebuild a new foundation. I’ve started a postpartum run club out of that will run (pun intended) over the next 8 weeks.
Instead of times, distances, and competition. We’re progressing with finding stability and connecting to the current version of yourself.
There’s no goal race or set distance you must achieve. Just about safely reconnecting to your athleticism as a mom.
If you want to join get in the Facebook group I’ve created - linked in my bio. If you don’t have Facebook, DM me I’ll add you to the training app.

Grip Strength ✊🏼
Did you know that improving your grip strength can improve strength throughout your entire body?
In the workshop this weekend, I will be explaining how and why we need to train grip strength in a variety of ways to prevent injury throughout the entire body.

Carpal Tunnel Syndrome ✋🏼⚡️
➡️Nerves don’t like being compressed⬅️
Normally nerves slide between muscles and under ligaments like a slippery spaghetti noodle🍝
In Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, the median nerve becomes compressed under the carpal ligament. This can occur because of external forces (ex lots of keyboard work) OR internal changes (ex limb swelling pregnancy).
How do we fix this?
1) change the external environment- improve your keyboard set up
2) reduce the compression - bracing and manual therapy (potentially surgery in some cases)
3) manage the internal environment - electrolyte levels & diet changes
4) movement! - making sure your lymphatic system is flowing and that your nerves can glide

Wrist & Elbow Workshop is This Weekend!

Bursitis 🎈
Olecranon (elbow) bursitis 💪🏼
If your elbow looks like it has a water balloon 💧🎈 hanging off of it, you may have bursitis.
This type of swelling can be caused by:
How you move ex. repetitive irritation or acute impact (at bumping your elbow)
OR
It may be cause by conditions such rheumatoid arthritis or gout.
OR
Infection, this is important to keep in mind. A small scrape can turn into a big problem.
If the area is red and swollen, make sure you rule out infection first! That is a time sensitive issue 😬
Have you had a puffy elbow before?
Did you know entrapment if your radial nerve can create pain at your elbow?
😲
In some instances, this entrapment can cause ‘drop wrist’ a condition where the extensors of the forearm stop activating.
⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️
We’re talking all things wrist and elbow this weekend! Make sure you secure your spot 🎉🤚🏼
⛳️Golfers Elbow 🏌🏼♂️
A.K.A. Medial Epicondylitis (a.k.a. The inside of my elbow hurts)
----
To get rid of medial elbow pain we must tackle it from 4 foundational pillars of recovery:
↔️ EXPAND
increase movement of the shoulder blade relative to the rib cage and humerus
*️⃣RELEASE
restrictions across the intermuscular septum of the upper arm, forearm, and the neurovascular bundles
⬆️ BUILD
grip strength & endurance in a variety of positions
⬇️ STABILIZE
Motion between the radius and the ulna (the forearm bones)
—————————-
Uncovering WHY your elbow hurts is the only way to get it better 💪🏼

Let’s get you a recovery plan that actually works!

I wanted to take some time to share more about who I am and why I do what I do.
I did have 3 parts planned but figured I’d just put them all in a big mash up & if you’re into it you’ll watch.
