You don’t need another “just rest and stretch” plan —
you need someone who actually listens.

This client worked with multiple providers for years before finding real progress.
The difference?
A plan built with them — not just for them.

That’s what working with Danny looks like.
Real solutions. Real progress.

Your body deserves that kind of attention.

Stop chasing new. Start chasing better!
The strongest athletes aren’t experimenting — they’re mastering the basics, week after week.

📎 Save this as a reminder for the next time you’re tempted to "switch things up".

Most athletes waste energy before they even touch their first working set.
Your warm-up should prepare you, not drain you.🪫
Prime your body. Lift heavy. Leave the fluff behind. 💪

You don’t stop training just because something hurts.
You find a way to move smarter.

This client came in dealing with knee pain that made lifting uncomfortable —
but instead of backing off completely, we found what movements worked, rebuilt strength, and kept training on track.

Because high performers don’t need to be told to “rest.”
They need clarity, strategy, and someone who understands performance inside and out.

That’s what we do at Forward Physio.
We keep you lifting, running, and performing — pain-free and confident.

💬 If that sounds like you, send us a DM and let’s get started.

You don’t need to overhaul your training to run better — you just need to prep smarter.

Before every run, I take a few minutes to get my body firing the right way.
Here’s a sneak peek at two of the moves I never skip 👇
⚡ Pogo hops — to get my calves and ankles springy
🔥 Lateral step downs — to wake up hip control and stability

Those two alone make a huge difference in how smooth my first mile feels.

We put the full prep routine together in a free guide for runners — comment PREP and we’ll send it to you! 👟

If you’ve ever felt that sharp tightness on the outside of your thigh when running — this one’s for you 🫡

The kickstand hip airplane hits your glutes and hip stabilizers — the muscles that actually take pressure off your IT band.

Set up in a kickstand stance → hinge at your hips → rotate open and closed, slow and controlled.

Do this before your next run and your hips will thank you 👇

You’re training hard.
Balancing work, life, and still chasing performance goals - but that nagging pain keeps creeping in.

This client was in the same spot.
Even living out of state, they stayed consistent, stayed accountable, and made real progress.

Because when your plan is built for you - progress doesn’t depend on location.
It depends on follow-through.

That’s what Virtual Rehab Coaching with Forward Physio is all about:
✅ Structure
✅ Accountability
✅ Performance-driven results

Wherever you are — we keep you moving forward.

💬 Ready to train smarter, not just harder?

You don’t have time for routines that don’t work 🙅
If you’ve been stretching your IT band hoping it’ll loosen up — it’s not the problem.

That tension you feel on the outside of your leg?
It’s your glutes and quads asking for attention.

Train the muscles that control the band, not the band itself.
That’s how you stay strong, balanced, and pain-free when you run or lift.

Your posing isn’t just about practice—it’s about mobility. 🏆

Tight hips, locked shoulders, stiff spine = stiff posing.

Move better ➡️ Pose better ➡️ Show off your physique the way it should be seen.
