80 degrees and sunshine all day?! I’ll take it! We don’t have “perfect” days like this more than ten times per year. Make the most of it and get outside to soak up some much needed Vitamin D!
Barbara is performing a rotational step and punch, or reach. She performs a similar movement routinely at home when putting dishes away. As we get…older, power declines faster than muscle and power is a major factor in fall prevention. We added the hurdle and lightened the load, so she could move fluid with control.

A thorough assessment can provide so much insight not just to me, but especially the client. John came to me because he felt out of shape and noticed his legs getting weaker when getting up from the floor and out of a chair. Here he is maintaining a split squat position, which is no easy task, but it only gets harder if you avoid it! I use progressions to help people move better and feel better regardless of injury or where they are in life. This is a great way to build stability before dynamic strength and mimics the way we get down and up from the floor.
It only takes a moment of your time to learn about your own body and how to live your best life! Call to schedule an assessment today!
One of the biggest complaints from some of my older clients is a fear of falling. Of course, there is no one size fits all approach, but enhancing your awareness, or proprioception, is a great way to prevent a future fall. This is a great drill to work on with 6-inch hurdles to mimic stepping back from the street onto a curb behind you and trusting yourself!
