Active recovery > passive recovery
When a muscle strain or spasm hits, the instinct might be to rest completely but gentle, intentional movement is often the key to getting better faster.
At 901PT, we teach our clients how to treat themselves through movement, not just rest. The goal? Restore mobility, keep blood flowing, and build resilience so you can come back stronger.

If you’re a runner and you train at Iron Tribe, this is for you! 🫵
The biggest mistake runners make when adding strength training is doing too much volume.
If you’re logging miles for a half or full marathon, you’re already getting plenty of cardiovascular work. What your body really needs from the gym is strength.. so, heavier weights, fewer reps, and movements that build tendon and muscle resilience.
This approach helps prevent those common running pains (like knee or Achilles issues) and actually improves performance long-term.

Headaches or neck tightness after upper body workouts?
You might be losing control of your neck position.
This exercise teaches you to keep your head neutral and shoulder blades active. No shrugging, no forward head. Just clean, pain-free movement. 👌

If you’ve ever been told your back pain is from a “disc bulge,” I get how discouraging that can feel.
But here’s the thing.. MRIs don’t tell the full story. You can have a disc bulge and no pain at all. Or have pain with a “perfect” MRI.
That’s why we look beyond the image. We look at how you move, how your body’s compensating, even how you think about your pain.

We see it all the time 🏃♀️ runners frustrated by tight calves, sore quads, or random fatigue mid-run.
More often than not, it’s not a mobility issue.. it’s a fueling issue.
Coach Jerry and Dr. Clay break down how to fuel before, during, and after your run so your body can actually keep up with your training.

It’s time! Before you continue your scroll.. it’s time to do some shoulder rolls (that wasn’t intentionally supposed to rhyme but we love how that worked out).
Go backwards for 10 and then forward for 10.
Why?
Because 😉

Getting older doesn’t mean slowing down. It just means getting smarter about how you train.
Most people think decline is inevitable with age.
But research (and real life) says otherwise.
With smart training, recovery, and consistency.. you can get stronger decades into adulthood.
If pain or stiffness is what’s stopping you, that’s your sign to reach out to us!
