Don’t sleep on one of the most versatile pieces of equipment in the gym!

The Landmine Goblet Squat is a great variation for general lower body strength training. It’s also an amazing way to modify load placement for someone dealing with back pain, or someone with shoulder pain who can’t tolerate holding the bar behind their back.

As always we believe that someone recovering from an injury needs to use the gym and not quit it. Save this for the next time you are battling an injury and want to train around it!

Do you p*e “just in case” before you leave home, work out, or go to bed?

This is common during pregnancy and after birth. But going too often can teach your bladder to feel full too soon.

Listen to your body—not the clock.

If bladder leaks or strong urges are getting in your way, pelvic floor physical therapy can help. Send us a DM to schedule with Dr. Natalie!

The trap bar deadlift isn’t the “easy” version of a deadlift—it’s a powerful tool for building total-body strength while allowing many lifters to train from a more comfortable position.

But if lower-back pain keeps showing up every time you lift, changing exercises may only provide temporary relief. The real goal is to identify why your back is being overloaded and build the strength, mobility, and confidence needed to lift without fear.

Dealing with lower-back pain during deadlifts, squats, or workouts? Send us a DM with the word BACK to schedule an evaluation and start working toward pain-free lifting.

For years, many women with diastasis recti have been told to avoid curl-ups and “be careful” with abdominal exercise.

But avoiding core loading altogether may not be the answer.

New research found that women with persistent diastasis recti; including women with Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, improved both abdominal strength and inter-rectus distance through a structured 24-week program that included curl-ups, breathing exercises, and postural training.

The takeaway? Your abdominal wall is not permanently fragile. It can adapt and become stronger when exercises are selected appropriately and progressed with intention.

There is no single “bad” exercise for every person with DRA. The right exercise depends on your symptoms, current strength, pressure management, and how your body responds.

If you are struggling with diastasis recti or feel uncertain about safely rebuilding your core, send us a DM to learn how pelvic floor physical therapy can help.

🥈 BEST OF MIDDLE GEORGIA — SECOND PLACE!

For the second year in a row, Elite Movement Specialists was nominated as one of Middle Georgia’s best physical therapy clinics and this year, we were awarded 2nd Place!!

For a small independently owned clinic that serves a smaller number of clients through one-on-one care, this recognition is monumental.

To every patient, friend, family member, and community partner who voted for us, referred someone to us, or supported our clinic: thank you! We would not be here without you 🙏🏻

There is more than one way to pick up a heavy barbell.

For some people, a conventional deadlift feels natural. For others, a wider stance and more upright position with the sumo deadlift simply feels stronger and more comfortable.

Neither variation is inherently better.

The goal is to find the variation that fits your body, allows you to move well, and gives you the confidence to progressively add load over time.

Learn the movement. Get strong with it. Keep progressing.

And if pain or mobility is limiting the way you want to train, message us “LIFT” and let’s figure out what’s holding you back.

The deadlift is one of the most valuable movements you can learn.

Whether you’re picking something heavy up off the floor, building strength in the gym, or simply wanting to stay strong as you get older, learning how to hinge and produce force from the ground matters.

But adding more weight to the bar only helps if you have a movement pattern you can consistently control.

Master the basics. Build strength from there.

Save this post and use it the next time you’re deadlifting.

And if pain, mobility, or an old injury is keeping you from lifting the way you want to, message us “LIFT” and let’s figure out what’s holding you back.
