Some people see a photo dump.
I see a timeline of impact. šŸ“
From being the kid who needed guidance…
to standing next to the people who gave it—
and now becoming that person for others. ā™»ļø

• An OG athlete who trusted me before any proof existed
• The chiropractor who unknowingly changed the trajectory of my life (full circle moments hit different) šŸ§ āš”ļø
• Conversations with people building something bigger than themselves—on the field, in business, in life
• Late walks, cold calls, random FaceTimes… the kind of talks that sharpen your perspective šŸ„¶āž”ļøšŸ”„
• Future leaders, difference makers, and people crazy enough to chase more
This isn’t random. None of it is.
It’s what happens when you stay in the game long enough, pour into people, and surround yourself with ones doing the same. šŸ¤
Grateful for every conversation, every rep, every connection. March has had some pretty cool moments.
We’re just getting started though.

Ignoring it doesn’t fix it… it just buys you time until it costs you more.

It’s almost never ā€œrandomā€.

You’ve had it before. You thought ā€œeh, it’ll go away on its ownā€.

ā€œI can deal with itā€ 😶

ā€œIt’s not that badā€ šŸ™„

YET. šŸ˜µā€šŸ’«

Famous last words.
That approach almost never works. In anything.
Not with injuries 🦓, not with car troubles šŸš—, not with relationships either. šŸ’”

If you ignore it long enough…
It’s not just ā€œthereā€ anymore, it’s affecting everything.

Don’t wait for that moment. Stay ahead of it. Send us a message while you’re at it. We can help. šŸ’Ŗ

If you’re an athlete, you don’t just need to ā€œget adjustedā€. You need a plan.

And if your chiropractor’s ā€œplanā€ starts and ends with the first clip, you need to find a new one.

You need a plan that:
• Fixes movement
• Builds stability
• Keeps you performing

Because the goal isn’t just to get out of pain..
It’s to stay in the game.

If you’re tired of the same issue coming back, we should talk.

A decade ago I was playing in the state basketball tournament with my best friends.

We went in as the #1 seed… and lost in the first round.

Proof that anything can happen in March.

Honestly, I don’t even remember the final score anymore.

What I do remember is walking around downtown Des Moines with a few of the guys afterwards. No parents. No coaches. Just thoughts. Just a group of teenage kids trying to process the end of something we had worked toward for years.

At the time it felt like the world ended.

Looking back now, it was just one chapter.

Fast forward 10 years and I got to watch one of my athletes, Benny, play the final high school game of his career.

An athlete I’ve worked with on and off the sidelines for the past couple years.

And moments like that always bring me back to those same emotions from when I was a player.

The end of a season.
The end of a chapter.
But definitely not the end of the story.

March is crazy like that.

Proud of Benny and all the athletes I’ve had the chance to work with this season — especially the ones who made the trip to Des Moines this week. It’s never guaranteed, and it’s never easy to get there.

The scoreboard won’t define the memories you’ll keep. šŸ€

Proud of you, 5.

You can’t expect progress
if you’re not willing to work.

Adjustments don’t fix everything.
Exercises don’t do themselves.
Consistency matters.

Your results require your effort.

Behind every appointment, every plan, every follow-up…
it’s just me.

The calls.
The notes.
The late nights.
The sidelines.
The check-ins.
The wins.

This place was built for this community — and every person who walks through the door matters.

Science doesn’t lie. Your training, recovery, and performance are all connected — and real research shows that

• Infrared sauna helps keep your strength and speed from dropping after hard workouts šŸ“ˆ
• Regular sauna use boosts recovery quality and training outcomes šŸ“Š
• Red + near-infrared light increases energy, reduces soreness, and improves endurance ⚔
• Rehab chiro care supports better movement, less pain, and faster recovery ✨

This isn’t ā€œjust feeling betterā€ — this is recovering faster and training harder.

✨ Want measurable improvements and a plan that shows real progress every week?

DM PERFORMANCE and let’s get you on a consistent routine.
