Dooley Noted: 9/20/14
I was helping a patient break down her kettlebell swing, which was reproducing discomfort in her low back and neck.
As we analyzed the technique, she saw her way out of low back pain and neck pain.
She made some important realizations.
Patient: Wow, there is a lot of detail to know about this.
Dooley: You won’t always have to think about it so much. Your brain is learning.
Patient: We just never focused on form to this detail at CrossFit.
Dooley: We aren’t CrossFit at Catalyst SPORT.
I have never been drawn to CrossFit, but I understand the appeal. It’s just not something that draws my interest.
I watch the trainers at Catalyst SPORT working side by side with me, and their clients are learning the importance of safety. They are learning the margins of error that can lead to injury culmination or prevention.
I’ve watched them go from injury to regression to becoming stronger than they ever were.
I watch them creep away from potential injury and earn a quality strength that carries over into every day life.
But I invite you to stop by Catalyst and see some of the strongest, most focused and capable humans I’ve met to date. They earn their fitness with a primary focus on safety.
We may not have the CrossFit sexiness. But Catalyst SPORT has a different kind of sexy, rooted in safety and strength.
As always, it’s your call.
