Hold a tempo for more pump per minute! There are so many benefits to this type of but in this case my favorite one is more strength with less load. And building control in good positions. And mobility.

OK, I don’t have a favorite. But this is a ✨great✨ tactic for pushing intensity and returning to your regular workouts after an injury.

Go forth and lift! ✌️♥️💪

If you’ve seen Kara Concheck Vincent in the gym, you already know she’s an exceptional athlete. Through her second pregnancy, she’s continued to train hard and show up consistently into her third trimester. When nagging low back pain started spilling into her day to day life, Kara knew she didn’t want it to dictate how the rest of her pregnancy or her training would look.

Together, we addressed the specific demands pregnancy was placing on her body and her training. With a few targeted PT sessions focused on strength, load management, and core control, her pain dropped significantly and she gained clarity on how to keep training with confidence.

She’s still showing up, still getting stronger, and let’s be honest…still beating most of us in WoDs! 🤣 A great reminder that pregnancy and performance can coexist with smart programming and intentional strength work. We can’t wait to see Kara keep crushing it in the gym the rest of her pregnancy! Talk about ! What an inspiration to us all! 🙌

Last Friday on rep 4/5 of front squats, I felt a sharp pain under my kneecap. I racked the bar, dropped from 175 to 105, and the pain was manageable—but shuttle runs, wall balls, and burpee box jump overs were still ahead.

Here’s how I kept the stimulus without worsening my knee:

🏃‍♀️ Shuttle runs: slowed before the turn
🎯 Wall balls: higher catch, wider stance, slower descent
⬆️ Burpee box jump overs: step-back burpees + step-overs

You don’t have to stop or rest when something hurts. We have SO many ways to modify training, keep moving, and use the amazing tools & coaches your gym has to offer to aide in your recovery. 💪

Vertical shins aren’t all they’re cracked up to be. In fact, they can hinder your squat at the point of maximum compression for your kneecaps and femurs. AND notice the angle it puts your back in - more like a good morning than a squat. That’s not the trade-off we want.

Oh, and you’re not breaking parallel.

I’m not seeing any wins here. If you’re feeling restricted in your squat through pain or tightness in your knees, we know who can help (it’s us). Come squat with us.
