Yesterday’s workout was full of deadlifts. This morning, you felt yourself dragging out of bed slower than usual, the aching and soreness in your back weighing you down and demanding a gentle pace for the day. As specialists in helping fitness athletes get out of pain and back to performance, we’re commonly asked what to do when the lower back is sore after deadlifts.

If you are dealing with more than just muscle soreness and think you may have an actual injury, please check out our schedule to book an assessment for faster relief individualized for your issue.

We want to know what success looks like for you because getting you back to the things you love is all that matters.⁠

EXCELLENCE LOOKS DIFFERENT⁠.

As the old adage goes, ‘if you are holding a hammer, everything you see is a nail’.

Similarly, when providers develop a certain set of skills or get comfortable with a couple ‘go to’ interventions, they naturally prefer using them. Problem is, what if those aren’t the ones you need?

At Onward, we understand it is our responsibility to be equally comfortable with all tools and approaches, from manual therapy to barbell movements to programming to chronic pain education.

Only when we’ve developed our skills sufficiently, when we’ve obliterated our weaknesses, will we be able to remove bias from our decision making. We work tirelessly to do exactly that because you deserve more than to be treated with your doctor’s favorite tools, you deserve to be treated with the right ones.

Exactly what you need, nothing you don't. ⁠

Virtual pregnant or postpartum therapy

Yes! And it really works!

It can be challenging getting out of the house, especially with a little one.

Exercise is a crucial part of LIFE, not just during pregnancy or postpartum.

Virtual appointments are great to teach you:
- Pooping and p*eing mechanics to optimize pelvic floor function and those hemorrhoids
- How to manage pain to return to intimacy
- Coach lifting mechanics and exercise modifications to keep you in the gym
- Return to gymnastics
- How to relax your pelvic floor and improve QUALITY of sleep

Think about your goals, share them with me, and let’s get you back to what you love!

What pain or issues are you having that’s keeping you from your fitness goals?

Far too often, the medical world’s answer to a training injury is to stop or rest.

At Onward, we believe an injury shouldn’t completely derail your fitness. There are several tactics we use to maximize your training without exacerbating an injury.

Exercise has some really positive benefits when you are in pain:
✅ Exercise has great pain inhibition effects. ⁠⁠
✅ Pumping blood into an area helps with inflammation. ⁠⁠
✅ Loading tissues appropriately helps the healing process. ⁠⁠
✅ Exercise has wonderful health benefits that shouldn't be stopped.⁠⁠
⁠⁠
🚨🚨🚨 Rest is rarely the answer. 🚨🚨🚨⁠⁠
⁠⁠
Use these six strategies to keep your training up while letting injured tissues recover.⁠⁠
⁠⁠
1. Adjust the range of motion⁠⁠
2. Adjust loading⁠⁠
3. Use exercise variations⁠⁠
4. Train the uninjured side⁠⁠
5. Unload irritated tissues⁠⁠

We are fortunate to work with great people in the Upstate! Thank you Lauren for trusting us with your care!⁠

Injuries happen.
It's incredibly easy to get sucked into the spiral of feeling bad for yourself, frustrated that you can't do what you used to, or angry at the thoughts of losing your fitness.
If you're regularly exercising at high intensities and pushing your limits, it's not unreasonable at some point you'll experience a minor tweak or injury. This doesn't mean your fitness journey halts, or worse, reverses.
At Onward, we find ways to keep pushing you forward. Let's keep your intensity and fitness high while we tackle a few weaknesses. Now's the time to not just get better, but better than ever.💪⁠

7 out of 10 people aren't dying from mechanical shoulder pain, they're dying from chronic disease.

We Understand...⁠⁠ ⁠
⁠ At Onward, we understand wanting to be in the gym and working as hard as you can. We also understand the frustrations that come when injuries prevent you from doing what you love. ⁠⁠ ⁠⁠
We aren't just going to say exercise is the best medicine, we are going to be doing it next to you.⁠⁠⁠ We also aren't going to tell you to stop if it hurts, because we know we wouldn't either. Keeping you at the gym around aches and pains is what we want for you. ⁠⁠ .
If you’re ready for a different experience than you’ll get in the rest of the medical world, shoot us a DM and let’s get started on the path to recovery.
