Good luck to all of our Spectrum runners and athletes while running the Thanksgiving Half Marathon this week!

We hope you've gotten all your prep in and that you have a well fueled, fun, cool run this Thursday.

Enjoy your 13.1 miles and time with family and friends afterwards!

We are well into the time warp that is holiday season. Before you know it, it will be Jan 10th and we will be back on the quarter 1 grind and trying to eat at least half as many baked good as we did in the past few weeks.

Jan 10th is 50 days away. You don't have to wait until Jan 1, or 10th or Feb 1st to commit to changes or work towards goals.

Action steps towards goals don't need to start on Mondays or firsts of the month. They can start now.

Remember, the best outcome will be changes that are made with small, incremental steps over time rather than GIANT life-altering changes.

So if you know your body needs some attention- you're dealing with nagging pain or just need to get moving- we implore you to start today.

Even though it's a Friday, want to start the work now to feel better by Jan1? We can help!

Trying to hit a PR during a vacation 10k or half marathon is so much fun when traveling out of hilly Atlanta.

Over the last couple of years a few of my running clients have hit PRs at some half marathons on the Georgia coast. It is so nice getting to run on some flat terrain with less demand on the achilles and knees from going up and down so many hills.

Some great work to add in prior to attempting a PR is any kind of speed drill or training. That often looks like running x number of miles at a 5k pace.

We miss so much by never fully sprinting though.

In this next month of your training, I challenge you to try running some high effort 100 meter and 400 meter repeats to really get your top speed up.

This is how you will get a big kick at the end to take off those extra seconds at the end and where you may pass someone to end up with a podium finish!

Athlete recovery is teamwork. Grateful for athletes who trust us to keep them competition-ready!

Deadlift giving you back tightness?

Everytime you have a deadlift session, do you start with rolling out, doing some soft tissue to your low back, and 20 minutes of band work to loosen up the hips and low back?

You've tried using a massager afterwards, doing deadhangs, and ice/heat when you get home, but your back still stays super achy and tight?

You are not alone, I've been there myself.

None of what you're doing is wrong, but modifying some of what you actually do with your deadlift will likely help you even more and help get rid of this tightness for good.

If this sounds like you, then give these movements/drills a chance. There's normally various factors causing the low back tightness with deadlifts, but these are a good start in addressing them.

For a more thorough assessment, reach out, and schedule a complementary discovery call with us. This is what we do.

Do you ever feel like your hips are just consistently tight and achy? You've stretched and used a foam roller, and it helps for a few minutes, but 20 minutes later, that ache comes right back?

Many of the folks we see come in with similar symptoms, having tried the same approach. The missing component of the plan is often to strengthen muscles around the hips.

Improving strength can help you become more tolerant of movements like squats, deadlifts, and lunges, make you more efficient with running and other sports, and allow you to enjoy that hike across Scotland you've been planning for years.

Our job as physical therapists is to help identify which muscle groups need to become stronger, and help you put together an implementable plan that will allow you to get rid of those aches and pains for good and enjoy all of your exercise and leisurely activities.

We are different than other PTs that you have worked with:

1. We have extensive training in orthopedics and sports outside of the standard PT education AND experience with coaching in different avenues. This helps us apply our nerdy science brain to our sports and fitness brain to keep you safe and healthy AND push the needle forward in your sport.

2. We have equipment in the office, like a weightlifting platform, squat rack, hurdles, and treadmill to challenge you enough to actually see progress. We also take the time to watch you do your thing, under actual circumstances. That might look like working up to a RPE 8 squat while here, or running at race pace after you are already fatigued.

3. We are athletes (or active adults, if you pause to call yourself an athlete) and therefore understand the effort and commitment it takes to set goals like completing your first half marathon, setting a PR in a meet, or increasing your pickleball rating. We aren't here to tell you to stop doing your sport, we are here to help you feel better and keep you in the game.

Maybe you've tried PT before and felt like it helped some but you continue to experience lingering issues. You might just need to try something different.... and that's us.

Struggling to see progress?

You're not alone. Tons of people work out consistently, whether it is running, lifting, or any other activity, but don't see the progress they expect. They make sure they eat right and sleep as much as they need. So why no progress?

One factor we don't often think about is the intent of a workout. When trying to get stronger, we need to work near maximal weight. When wanting to improve sprint speed, we need to run at maximum speeds. Many workouts get checked off, but don't reach their full potential because the level of intensity is not quite there.

Next time you do a sprint workout, make sure you really hit 95+% of your effort.

Give it a shot, and let us know how it goes.

We had the opportunity to teach and explore with Muay Thai athletes at Renegade Roots! We were covering how to improve their power in rotation for their sport, as well as common injuries we see with martial arts and how to decrease the likelihood of pain that derails training.

Teaching is our favorite! Are you at a gym, with a running or sports group that would like to learn from us? Let's connect!

If you've been getting shin pain during or after running, then these exercises may be for you!

We love incorporating some feel good soft tissue work, some muscle specific strength, then general, heavy, resistance for the lower body.

Give these a try and for a more detailed plan, set up a complementary call to learn how we can best help you!

Once we dig deeper, it often ends up that these other attempts at addressing the pain were largely focused on body work- massage, dry needling, scraping, manipulation.

While these are incredible adjuncts to rehab, they merely scratch the surface. The address the symptoms but NOT the root cause.

This means, you're more likely to keep hammering away at the same area with little long term resolution.

Once some soft tissue work helps the immediate issue, there NEEDS to be a progressive, purposeful rehab (strength) plan to follow!

Does this seem different than you've tried before? Come see what it's all about.
