Strengthening Up The Chain

While the initial treatment plan following an injury might include basic strengthening exercises, it is important to eventually address the areas that are “ further up the chain”.

In other words, once progressed past the initial phases of injury, looking beyond the injury and targeting muscles groups that may be influencing and contributing to the injured area is crucial to maximize healing and return to performance.

Have you experienced an injury? Our team of physiotherapists, athletic therapists, occupational therapists, and kinesiologists are experts in helping you identify all the things contributing to your injury. Call us today for an assessment.

EXERCISE OF THE WEEK

Tannis’ pick of the week is: heel elevated back squats 🏋️‍♀️

This exercise is an excellent way to increase the depth of your squat and target your quadriceps muscles. In addition to this, it also allows activation of various hip stabilizers allowing for greater muscle group utilization.

I don’t have a squat rack or not quite ready to use one? Try the above without any weight or hold a dumbbell as a goblet weight!
