athletes (Yeah, you’re an athlete!)
Working out shouldn’t hurt. Yeah, you can be sore, but not in pain! Your trainer is very skilled at putting together a workout to challenge you but most don’t have the background or knowledge to identify, correct, and prevent faulty movement patterns. They work with a bunch of people each day! Our doctors have training in the field or movement, corrective exercise, personal training, and performance enhancement. Oh, they also help people are in pain. Stop spending money for classes you can’t give it your all in.
