How do you actually protect your joints? By gradually increasing the amount of stress your body can safely handle — in lots of different movement patterns. Joint protection isn’t about avoiding stressful positions — it’s about training your body to handle them with strength and confidence. 💪

Valentine’s Day isn’t just about loving someone else.

It’s also a reminder to be gentle with yourself...especially when your body is healing.

Progress might feel slow. Some days will test your patience.
But every small effort counts. Every step forward matters.

Your body is doing its job. It’s working for you, not against you.
So today, choose kindness.

Healing takes time and you’re right where you need to be. ❤️

Do you have front shoulder pain when barbell bench pressing? You don't have to take out pressing entirely. Keep training with this floor variation.

Physical therapy shouldn’t make you dependent on PT.

It should teach you how to move better, train smarter, and stay strong long after you leave. This is how we do it at Good Reps!

Hot take: trying to optimize your running form is overrated. This is not to say that form doesn’t matter, but most running related injuries occur due to training error: a mismatch between what your training consists of and what your body can currently handle.

Reviewing your training log a few weeks to months leading up to when your pain started might give you a better idea and a more tangible approach of what needs to change moving forward.

One of the most common diagnoses that we treat is tendinopathy. Many patients come to us as their first point of care for tendon pain, while others have already seen a physician but still don;t understand what it is. Here is an overview of what tendinopathy is and why it happens.

While flare-ups are, unfortunately, a common part of rehab and recovery, it's only human to feel frustrated when they happen.

But, they can also be a good time to collect some data on:
✔️ Where you upper limits are
✔️ What lifestyle factors, that you may not have initially considered, affect your symptoms
✔️ What is the most effective way to calm down your pain when it flares

Have you ever thought, ‘I should probably stretch more,’ but weren’t sure which type is actually best?

Here’s a breakdown of the different types of stretching and when to do them. 👌

A common complaint we get when people do lunges is that the back knee hurts. This could be due to that leg not having the passive mobility to flex the knee, eccentric control to get low or having the positional strength to hold the lunge.

Try these exercises out to help alleviate knee pain while lunging.

1) Couch Stretch

2) Front Foot Elevated Split Squat

3) Lunge Isometric

When performing ballistic kettlebell movements, efficiency starts with how you hold the bell. I recommend either a pronated grip or a barbell-style grip. The pronated grip reinforces the cue “thumbs to bum,” helping you keep the kettlebell’s arc tight so the power from your hinge transfers directly into the bell. The barbell grip tends to feel most natural, especially for athletes who already train with barbells.

The grip I don’t recommend is the neutral grip, as it places the elbow in a position prone to hyperextension. Repeated hyperextension can lead to irritation or pain over time—something you want to avoid in high-volume ballistic work.

The most common no-rep at the Hyrox wall ball station isn’t the throw.

It’s not hitting squat depth.

Here are 3 ways to clean up your reps 👇

✔️ Use a depth target
Place a ball behind you so you physically know how far you need to descend. No guessing.

✔️ Adjust your stance
Widen slightly and toe out to give your hips more room to sit down instead of forward.

✔️ Train strength and elasticity at the bottom
Oscillating squats with a hand hold build control, rebound, and confidence in the hole.

Why it matters:
Clean depth = clean reps.
Clean reps = fewer penalties and faster overall times.

Pain isn’t just about what’s happening in the body. It is shaped by a mix of biological, psychological and social factors. Here are some of the biggest influences on pain.
