Happy holidays from The Movement Co. Team 🥳❄️

Most endurance athletes don’t have an “injury problem.”

They have a capacity problem.

Pain goes away → training ramps back up → mechanics don’t change → same injury returns.

Pain relief is step one.

Rebuilding your capacity is what actually fixes the issue.

If you want a season without setbacks, train the system that failed — not the symptom that flared.

If I had to pick one exercise to bring into 2026, it’d be this breathing drill.

I learned this early in the year through the compression/expansion model, and it’s something I’ve since shared with many of my clients because most of us don’t actually breathe very well 😅

When breath control is limited, it can affect core engagement and how the ribs, hips, and shoulders move.

Remember the basics matter here:

– Ribs stacked over pelvis
– Deep inhale through the nose
– Long, controlled exhale through the mouth

There are lots of variations, but this is the starting point.

Simple, intentional, and surprisingly effective. 🫁✨

Deadlifts don’t wreck backs — bad deadlifts do.

This drill teaches you how to use your lats like seatbelts, keeping the bar close and your spine supported.
When the bar drifts, your low back pays the price.

Dial in the pattern first.
Load it later.

This is exactly why I like to budget an extra 10 minutes at the start of your appointment so I can have time to better understand what’s happening in your body, and what you hope to get out of each massage therapy appointment.

It’s important for me to understand the reasons why you are seeking treatment so I can provide you with the best possible care, and it all starts with listening 😊

Reminder - link is in our bio to submit who you know would absolutely benefit from a free plan of care. Get your coach, training partner, sibling or whoever comes to mind back to doing what they love in 2026 pain free.

Lets get your outer hip firing and get relief for that knee!

• Grab a wedge
• Place your front foot on it and take a split squat position
• Lower your front hip a little bit
• Then take mild hinge forward
• Once in this position press the heel down into the wedge and you should feel the outside of the hip start to engage.
• Hold for 10 seconds then repeat on the other side.

If you have done more slow calf raises than you care to count and still have calf injuries, you need to do this glute bridge modification instead.

The goal is to be able to hold the position for 30 seconds without the hip dropping or the calf fatiguing.

Looks like we got a little bit of snow recently ❄️ I’m sure a lot of you can’t wait to hit the trails! ⛷️

If you’re looking for an exercise to help keep up your strength while poling, try this skull crusher exercise (but please don’t actually crush your skull! 💀)

-Lie on your back with your knees bent.
-Hold dumbbells/ plates straight above you. Activate your shoulder blades by reaching for the ceiling.
-Keeping your upper arm still, bend the elbow. Keep the reach throughout the exercise. At the bottom think about the elbow reaching for the ceiling.
-Straighten your elbow and repeat!
