My Training Style
Over Head Squat Assessment (OHSA)
When I first meet a new client, the very first thing I do is assess their ability to squat efficiently.
This functional movement screen helps to identify muscle imbalances, joint limitations, and potential areas of weakness.
By pinpointing these issues early on, we can tailor a personalized plan that addresses specific needs, optimizing your movement capabilities and preventing injuries.
This foundational step ensures that your workouts are both effective and safe, ultimately enhancing your range of motion, reducing daily aches and pains, and improving overall quality of life.
Post Assessment
After completing the overhead squat assessment, we move into a targeted plan tailored to address any identified weaknesses or imbalances.
This plan typically includes mobility exercises to increase range of motion, strength training to bolster weak areas, and corrective exercises to ensure proper movement patterns.
Our aim is to optimize your overall movement quality and functionality, reduce the risk of injury, and enhance your physical performance.
By systematically addressing these areas, we pave the way for a safer, more effective training program that aligns with your personal fitness goals.

Techniques Utilized
Self-Myofascial Release (SMR)
What is it?: SMR is a technique often referred to as 'foam rolling' which uses tools like foam rollers, massage balls, and massage "guns".
Why we're using it: To break down knots and adhesions in muscle tissue, increase blood flow, and promote muscle recovery.
Benefits: Reduces muscle soreness, improves flexibility, and enhances overall mobility.
Targeted Stretching
What is it?: Various exercises aimed at lengthening the muscles and tendons.
Why we're using it: To restore muscle length and improve joint range of motion.
Benefits: Enhances flexibility, reduces the risk of injury, and improves posture.
Muscle Activation
What is it?: Specific exercises that target underactive or dormant muscles to
"wake them up".
Why we're using it: To ensure muscles are properly engaged before more challenging exercises.
Benefits: Improves muscle coordination, enhances strength, and prepares the body for more intense physical activity.
Integration Techniques
What is it?: The process of incorporating activated muscles into full-body or functional movements.
Why we're using it: To ensure that muscle improvements translate into everyday activities and sport-specific movements.
Benefits: Enhances overall movement quality, functional strength, and coordination, leading to more efficient and effective workouts.
