My favorite client story

I have a client that was an avid biker, until he got side swiped by a cab in the city. He had injuries to both legs and was unable to perform physical activity for multiple months. When we started working together we worked on general strength and mobility. I taught him how to deadlift and incorporate other power movements into his training routine. He is now a casual biker, but raves about how his improved lower body strength has helped him in his rides.

He is more than thankful, and now insists on training 2-3 days a week. His main focus at this point is quality of life and injury prevention. Improving quality of life means something different for everyone, and assisting someone achieve a full life is what this is all about.

My favorite quote

"I complained that I had no shoes until I met a man who had no feet."
