A lot of people think a stiff, painful back means you should stop moving.

This is what happened in ONE session:
Came in barely able to bend over.
After the right movement + the right progressions… he’s touching his toes again.

And here’s the key:
A lot of the time the “unlock” isn’t stretching.
It’s strength training.

When we teach the body how to produce force, control the hips, and brace the core, your back stops feeling like it has to do everything by itself.

Your back isn’t broken.
It’s just asking for a better plan. 💪

Want help figuring out what your back needs? DM me “BACK”.

If you’re tired of generic workouts and want a plan built around your body, your goals, and your injuries, this is exactly what we do at AthleX.

Shoutout to this client too! Just over 2 months in and already seeing noticeable changes in strength, fitness, and physique. That’s what consistency + the right plan can do. 💪

DM me “START” and I’ll send you the next step.

Consistency is what actually drives progress.

Whether you’re recovering from an injury or working toward a performance goal, your body needs repeated, gradual exposure to movement and load. That’s how tissues heal, strength builds, and confidence comes back.

Progress doesn’t come from random bursts of effort or one perfect workout. It comes from showing up regularly, moving well, and letting your body adapt over time.

Small, consistent sessions create the foundation for long-term strength, better movement, and real results.

Stay patient, stay consistent, and let the work add up.

Rehab is just the starting point.

This client came in with one goal: stay healthy, keep training, and build strength that carries over to sport for years to come.

Through a fully personalized plan focused on mobility, movement quality, progressive strength, and power, they didn’t just feel better. They measurably gained muscle, improved form, and built real resilience.

This is what happens when training doesn’t stop at feeling better, but continues toward performance and longevity.

The single leg deadlift is one of the best ways to build hip strength, improve balance, and develop better body control.

Using a foam roller as feedback helps prevent the knee from drifting forward, encouraging a true hip hinge and better glute engagement. This keeps the tension where we want it and reinforces cleaner movement patterns.

Think of it like teaching your body to load a spring at the hips instead of the knee. The better the hinge, the more power, control, and resilience you build.

Great option for anyone returning to training after injury or looking to move more efficiently in sport and daily life.

If you want help dialing in your movement and building a plan tailored to you, we’ve got you.

Just a quick re-intro from Alyssa👋

Post-ACL recovery isn’t just about getting “cleared” to move.

It’s about rebuilding strength, confidence, and real-world capacity after rehab ends.

This is exactly why AthleX exists.

We help people bridge the gap between traditional rehab and real training.
So you’re not just pain-free…
You’re actually prepared to lift, run, jump, and live actively again.

We don’t rush people back.
We don’t rely on generic programs.
And we don’t stop once pain is gone.

We build strength.
We build resilience.
We build athletes who trust their bodies again.

Huge respect to this client for showing up, putting in the work, and committing to the process.
Watching someone go from post-surgery uncertainty to enjoying training again is the real win.

If you’ve finished traditional rehab but don’t feel ready to train, run, or return to sport yet…
that’s the gap we fill.

DM “ACL” or “EVAL” and we’ll map out your next step.

Most people don’t get re-injured because they’re broken. They get re-injured because they return too fast.

Feeling better ≠ being ready.

If you’ve been stuck in the cycle of rest, relief, rush, and re-injury, this is for you.

A real plan rebuilds strength, tissue capacity, movement quality, and confidence so your body is actually prepared for sport, not just pain-free.

If you want to return stronger, faster, and with confidence, DM me “READY” or click the link in my bio.

Single-arm cable row done with intent.

This isn’t just about pulling weight.
It’s about moving through the motion to teach the ribcage how to rotate, expand, and come back to center.

Reach and let the ribs open.
Pull and let them stack back over the pelvis.

That sequence:

• Reinforces ribcage and thoracic mobility
• Improves force transfer from arm to core
• Reduces compensation through the neck and low back

Train movement first. Then load it.

Save this for your next upper-body day and comment ROW if you want to train with more intent, not just more weight.

Are you looking to take your deadlifts to the next level?

Here’s one of my favorite exercises to better isolate the hips and ensure you’re fully engaging your glutes and hamstrings during the deadlift.

Keeping your knees close to the bench encourages you to send the hips back, rather than relying on the knees by letting them move forward.

Listen to your body and only move through the range your hips allow.
