🔥 Strong neck. Strong foundation.

Dr. Chris is working with our client Simon on neck bridges on the wall — a powerful way to build neck strength and stability. 💪

Not many people train their neck… but your neck literally connects your head to the rest of your body.

If it’s weak or unstable, it can contribute to poor posture, tension, and even discomfort down the chain.

This exercise helps:

✔️ Improve neck stability

✔️ Build strength in the deep neck muscles

✔️ Support upright posture

✔️ Increase overall head and cervical control

Keeping your head upright isn’t just about posture — it’s about strength and control.

Train the muscles that support you every single day.

💎 Quality Tip Tuesday — Proper Scapulothoracic Rhythm 💎

Does your shoulder feel tight, pinchy, or limited when reaching overhead? 👀

One of the most common compensations we see—especially at home—is overusing the upper trap when raising the arm.

Why?

Because your body is trying to shorten the lever arm to make the movement easier. Instead of properly rotating and controlling the shoulder blade, the upper trap shrugs the shoulder up to “help” you lift.

The problem is… when the lower trap and serratus anterior aren’t doing their job, the scapula doesn’t upwardly rotate or posteriorly tilt correctly — and that can lead to:

• Shoulder impingement

• Pain with overhead movement

• Decreased range of motion

• Reduced strength and control

At QMR, we teach you how to:

✔️ Engage the right stabilizers

✔️ Free up proper scapular motion

✔️ Restore smooth, efficient shoulder mechanics

Your shoulder blade is the foundation for healthy shoulder movement. Fix the rhythm, and you free up the range.

Check out our Quality Tip of Dr. Chris demonstrating Proper Scapulothoracic Rhythm.

🔥 Shoulder pain when lifting? It might be your scapular stability.

In this session, Dr. Lesly is coaching scapular retraction on the bench — a foundational movement to restore shoulder strength and control. 💪

This exercise targets:

✔️ Rhomboids

✔️ Rear deltoid

✔️ Key scapular stabilizers

When the shoulder blade isn’t strong or stable, the shoulder joint takes on more stress — leading to discomfort, limited range of motion, and poor performance.

By strengthening the muscles that control scapular retraction, we help:

• Improve shoulder positioning

• Reduce strain on the front of the shoulder

• Build better pressing & pulling mechanics

• Increase long-term shoulder resilience

Strong shoulders start with strong shoulder blades.

💎 Quality Tip Tuesday — Getting Down to the Floor the RIGHT Way 💎

Are you putting unnecessary stress on your knees every time you get down to the floor? 👀

One common mistake we see is letting the knee collapse inward (excessive valgus) when stepping down. Over time, that inward collapse can increase stress on:

• The knee joint

• The kneecap (patella)

• Supporting ligaments and soft tissue

⚠️ Small movement faults repeated daily = bigger problems later.

✅ The Fix: Reverse Lunge Mechanics

Instead of collapsing inward, step back into a controlled reverse lunge:

• Keep your knee aligned with your toes or slightly behind your toes

• Avoid letting it cave in

• Control the descent

This activates the VMO (Vastus Medialis Oblique) — a key muscle that helps stabilize the kneecap and support healthy knee mechanics.

💪 Benefits:

• Improves knee alignment

• Builds functional leg strength

• Activates stabilizing muscles

• Helps prevent knee pain

• Makes everyday movements safer and stronger

Getting down to the floor shouldn’t hurt — and it definitely shouldn’t cause long-term wear and tear.

Check out our Quality Tip of Dr. Lesly demonstrating How to Get Down on the Floor Correctly.

🏃‍♂️🔥 We had an amazing time hosting here at QMR for our Mobility 4 Runners — Class #1 🙌

Led by Dr. Lesly and Dr. Chris, Performance Physical Therapists, this session was all about helping runners move more efficiently and stay injury-free.

During the class we worked on:

✅ Hip, knee, and ankle mobilization to improve stride length & efficiency

✅ Calf + soleus flexibility for better push-off

✅ Running mechanics and movement awareness

✅ Functional mobility stations that definitely got everyone sweating 😮‍💨💪

The best part?

Every runner raised their hand saying they felt more efficient during and after their run — and that’s exactly the goal.

Big shoutout to A1 Run Group for bringing the energy and trusting us to help support your running journey 👟🔥

Let’s keep you running strong.

🔥 Low back pain doesn’t mean you have to stop moving like an athlete.

Meet Steve 👊

He came to QMR with low back pain, and now he’s one of our QMR clients—moving better, feeling stronger, and training with confidence again.

We followed our 3-step process:

✅ Step 1: Calm pain + restore control

• Static core stabilization to reduce stress on the low back

• Trigger point release + hands-on work to ease tension and improve mobility

✅ Step 2: Build strength with movement

• Progressed from static stability → dynamic core stability

• Improved core strength so he can control his body during real-life movement

✅ Step 3: Performance + injury prevention

Steve’s job requires him to lift heavy objects, move fast, and stay powerful—so we trained him like it.

• Explosive leg strength

• Dynamic full-body movements

• Core control under speed + load

Because the truth is… as we get older, we stop doing explosive movements—but we shouldn’t.

That’s how you keep your athletic potential, protect your back, and stay strong for life 💪⚡️
