Many injured athletes share common characteristics. They usually have compensation in their muscle activation pattern, limited range of motion, and imbalance in their muscle tone as well.
When an athlete pushes mobility while stability is not there, the body needs to compensate the pattern, limit the range of motion and activate different muscles to support the mobility. If not corrected, this will lead to more injuries in the future.
How can we prevent this from happening? Identifying anatomical differences, performing bio-mechanical analysis, examining your cross-training, and helping select appropriate running shoes are but a few ways. I can help you with all of the aforementioned and more! Feel free to take a look at my website for more details.
Additionally, feel free to contact me at leslie.hyun.kim@gmail.com with any/all of your questions. I’ll help you learn more about the various factors that contribute to your individual challenges with mobility/stability and discover what it takes to achieve pain-free movement.
I’ll even meet you for a complimentary session at my studio in the Mission to try and get to the root of the problem!
