Re: Follow Along G's Run to the NA's

OK, I finally looked up these rehab moves you are doing. I just want to laugh and cry at the same time. Looks like the Tuesday 'Silver & Fit' class. You really are willing to do ANYTHING to keep making progress. Sharing this can really help a lot of guys who constantly put off real rehab. You have figured out that when you are injured you must get well before you are able to continue on your regular program. I never stop learning from your thread, thanks a million.

what's funny is that i didnt know that i had issues with my glutes firing properly and it was causing tightness in my it bands and knees when i trained. so she gave me those movements to strengthen the areas and learn to make them fire properly. what i did when i originally got hurt is take a look at articles written by power lifters and their injuries and how they bounced back from them. i figure if they can squat and do what they do it can help me get back to it twice as fast as having work done in a clinic solo. those techniques they use to break the stuff up and get it healing faster are crazy crazy painful haha. i may get my entire back done after my leg is good to go. it is supposed to aid in growth as well

today was another thearpy day and it was another brutal painful session with the main focus being on the it band and outer sweep. she graffed the entire quad and half the ham worked the entire knee did some dry needling and internal e stim. then after that torture it was to the gym for a good back day. we got it all knocked out in about an hour and 20 minutes so the pace was pretty quick and that kept a good pump going. overall good day
