Sol Physical Therapy

Dealing with pain but don't want to stop lifting? You're not alone — and the good news is that in most cases, you don't have to.

One of the most common mistakes we see: people either push through pain and make things worse, or they stop training entirely and lose the progress they've worked hard for. The right approach is usually somewhere in the middle.

In his latest article, orthopedic physical therapist Lucas Johnston, PT, DPT explains when it's safe to keep lifting, how to modify your workouts to stay in the gym, the warning signs that mean you should stop and get evaluated, and how physical therapy can help you return to training stronger than before.
