RSI. Reactive Strength Index.-We use RSI to test the athletes readiness to train. -This helps us gauge load management for our athletes and shows us when adjustments should be made to their programming, allowing us to streamline both active & passive recovery 🙏🏾🙌🏾.-#RecoverU #WhyNotFeelGreat-#RecoverU

Isometrics.- When an injury takes place, the pathway that sends the signals to muscles for movement gets interrupted. This makes it hard to move the “right way”.- Adding a 10s hold, before starting your reps, will help the athletes ability to perform the movement correctly 🫡. - Training Is Rehab. Rehab Is Training. 🤘🏾- #WhyNotFeelGreat #RecoverU

Training Volume. 8x5 at RPE 6.5.-Quantifying what that looks like will aid in recovery, while still improving performance 🤘🏾 ➡️ use loads, that allow you to get some target practice in. You have to get better at a movement, to get the most out of it. More reps = more practice. - You can still get that work in with a modified load (weight) 💪🏾. Lock in 🫡.-#RecoverU #InTestWeTrust #HealingIsForEverybody

Hamstring Strains ⤴️-Drop A Question, Get An Anwser 😌✊🏾 #ReducePain #ImprovePerformance #WhyNotFeelGreat-And as always, get a professional opinion/official diagnosis before diving in on things on your own 👊🏾✊🏾

Ibuprofen, massage guns…don’t heal you. Stop popping pills and gunning injuries for temporary “relief”. The goal isn’t to just stop pain and get by; It’s to identify the source and correct. - Pain Is A Symptom, Not The Problem. Treat It Accordingly. #LeaveBetterThanYouCame #WhyNotBeGreat

Pending On The Amount Of Pressure Used, It Takes 48-72hours to Recover From Deep Tissue Body Work. - That’s a No Go For Next Day Competition; Don’t Do It. There’s a time & a place for it; but before competition isn’t it. #LeaveBetterThanYouCame #RecoverU

PNF Involves A Contract & Relax. Isometric Involves Locking the Joint Positions in Place. - Combining the two allows us to assess passive and active ranges of motion. Movement quality, it’s gotta be apart of the equation for programming + training 🤘🏾. #RecoverU #LeaveBetterThanYouCame

#TBT 😏 Soft Tissue Mobilization = Fancy Words For “Ways To Relax Relax Your Muscles." - Soft Tissue Mobilization (STM) uses stretching and deep pressure to break up rigid muscle tissue, relax muscle tension, and move fluids trapped in the tissues that cause pain and inflammation. STM is used to treat soft tissue injuries including muscle strains and sprains. It is a type of manual therapy.

Internal Rotation. - Runners, limited internal rotation shortens your stride. - Without sufficient internal rotation, the pelvis cannot move as far forward over the stance leg, and we instinctively shorten our stride. - Do your hip mobility, daily. #PerformanceTherapy #WhyNotFeelGreat

Myofascial Release.-How to release the tough membranes that wrap around, connect and support your muscles. -Tempo, pressure, and surface area all play a part in how effective the release will be 👊🏾.#WhyNotFeelGreat

Bodywork. - The goal is to realign and reposition the body, which helps athletes move in a natural way. - People learn, through injury or stress, unnatural ways of moving or holding their body. This is one of the ways we help correct that 🙌🏾. #WhyNotFeelGreat

Whether you’re training for competition or recovering from an injury, the phases are the same:1. Activation 2. Specialization 3. Optimization -As an athlete, your program should include all three ✊🏾. #BulletproofYourBody #WhyNotBeGreat

Recovery = Return To A Normal State Of StrengthRest = Stop Moving-You can recover while resting, but resting doesn’t always mean you’re getting better. Practice Active Recovery, it’s often the difference between Feeling better and actually Getting better ✊🏾. #WhyNotFeelGreat-(By Active Recovery we mean MOVING your body, and applying loads that place minimal stress on the body. )#Mobility

Every Athlete, Every Team, Every Organization, Has A Story... - It’s About Time We Started Telling Ours 😌🤘🏾. #WhyNotBeGreat - 🎥 @ballertribe

It’s All Connected 🤘🏾.-We came for the traps, but being as they connect to the base of your neck, it only makes sense to release them too for a full, functional reset. 💪🏾 #WhyNotFeelGreat

Cupping + A Flush 😏🤘🏾-This combination creates space & restores flow.-It’s hard to stay “tight” under these conditions 😌🙌🏾#WhyNotFeelGreat

Kneading is a circular technique where tissues are lifted, rolled and squeezed in a compressive action. The pressure is deep and it compresses the underlying muscles. Force is applied across the muscle to break down and realign collagen fibres. - Manchester Physio - Kneading relieves tightness and warms up the muscle, making it a perfect start to any session in need of tissue prep 🤘🏾.

This is The Type Of Stretching That Has A Direct Correlation with Athletic Performance 🤘🏾. -#ReducePain #ImprovePerformance #WhyNotFeelGreat

The Best Hip Releases, Hit All 4 Of The “Hip Flexors” 🤘🏾-🔹 Hip Flexors (Front)🔹 Glute Medius (Back)🔹 TFL (Side)🔹 Psoas (“inside”)-Getting all 4 is key when checking for and addressing imbalances with athletes 👊🏾
