At Athletic Advantage Physical Therapy, we believe in setting fitness resolutions that enhance your overall well-being and align with your physical capabilities. Forget unrealistic goals like sculpting a six-pack —let’s focus on resolutions that prioritize function, mobility, and fun while utilizing our innovative Reset Method to help you achieve your best self.
Focus on Building Your Functional Strength
Working toward functional strength goals can improve your daily movements and prevent injuries. For example, mastering a push-up builds upper body and core strength while enhancing joint mobility. At our clinic, we often guide patients through progressive exercises like:
Using resistance bands to build strength and engage core muscles.
Modified pull-ups incorporating bands or TRX equipment for controlled support.
Eccentric pull-ups to enhance muscle control and endurance.
Our therapists create personalized programs to ensure these exercises are both safe and effective, emphasizing core engagement to optimize strength and stability.
Embrace Pain-Free Walking, Cycling, or Running
Walking, cycling, and running are excellent ways to boost cardiovascular health, but past injuries or discomfort often hold people back. At our clinic, we specialize in addressing gait imbalances, joint issues, and movement mechanics to ensure these activities are both enjoyable and sustainable. Start small with manageable intervals—for example, walk or cycle for five minutes, then rest for two—or alternate running for 20 seconds with walking for two minutes. Gradually build your endurance as your confidence grows.
Our team is here to assess your biomechanics and provide tailored strategies to help you move freely and confidently, whether you prefer walking, cycling, or running.
Address Pain
Pain and injuries can create a cycle of inactivity, but movement is often the key to relief. Our clinic’s proprietary Point Reset™ technique, developed by Dr. Cody Johnson, can target trigger points to accelerate recovery and improve mobility. Whether you’re dealing with chronic pain or lingering injuries, we’ll create a personalized plan that empowers you to move confidently and safely.
Set Manageable Goals
Rather than overwhelming yourself with a strict weekly exercise quota, aim for a realistic monthly target. For instance, Our new year fitness reset with Dr. Cody Johnson suggests committing to 3-5 workouts per week this timeline provides flexibility to balance those busy weeks with quieter ones. Our therapists can help you set achievable milestones and develop safe strategies to overcome obstacles like fatigue or muscle pain and help you recover faster.
