Meet Brett, founder and Doctor of Physical Therapy at Total Performance PT.

With a background in rehab, strength and conditioning, sports performance, and fitness, Brett’s approach is focused on helping people move beyond simply feeling “better” and get back to doing what they love at a high level.

His goal is simple: help every patient build the strength, confidence, and capacity to keep moving forward.

It’s easy to tell yourself that nagging pain will eventually go away, or that you’ll get back to feeling like yourself with a little more time.

But if pain keeps coming back, you’re changing the way you move because of it, or you never quite got back to 100% after an injury, it may be time to get some help.

At Total Performance Physical Therapy, we’ll help you figure out what’s going on and create a plan to get you back to moving, training, and doing the things you love.

PT-friendly does not mean easy. It means intentional.

You can still lift, train, and challenge your body while also giving it what it needs to recover well. 👌🏻

A good program should help you keep building strength, work around your symptoms, and move you closer to the things you actually want to get back to. 💪🏻

Sometimes the answer is simply adjusting the exercise, the load, or the volume so your workout works with your body instead of against it.

Keep moving, keep adapting, and keep working toward what matters to you.

Pregnancy comes with a lot of changes, but “just deal with it” should never be the plan.

Here’s a few things I think every pregnant woman should do to prepare for your life (and your body) after baby arrives:

➡️ Learn how to manage pressure through your core + pelvic floor.

Pay attention to things like coning and doming during core exercises. Choose movements that challenge you without creating more pressure than your body can manage well.

➡️ Maintain your strength.

Aim to strength train 3–4x/week, focusing on glute strength, upper back strength, core strength, and stability. 💪

➡️ Work on hip and thoracic mobility as your body changes.

Your body is adapting constantly, so mobility matters. We recommend half-kneeling thoracic mobility, LAT stretching, thoracic rotation, pec stretching, and adductor strengthening.

➡️ Practice breathwork and pelvic floor coordination.

Your ribs can get pretty “sticky” during pregnancy as your body changes. Learning how to 360 breathe and open up your mid-back can help build a strong foundation of better breathing mechanics.

➡️ Modify as needed.

Your workouts do not have to look the same at 36 weeks as they did at 16 weeks. You can lighten the weight, change the exercise, adjust your range of motion, or choose a variation that feels better as your symptoms and body change.

➡️ Address symptoms instead of normalizing them.

Just because symptoms like leaking, pelvic pressure, back pain, hip pain, and other uncomfortable symptoms are common, that does not mean they are something you have to live with.

➡️ Learn how to move well in everyday life.

Getting in and out of bed, lifting, carrying, squatting, and moving throughout your day all matter too.

The goal is not to have the “perfect” pregnancy workout. The goal is to help your body adapt well now so you feel more confident moving through pregnancy, birth, postpartum, and everything that comes after. 🤰

Save this checklist for later, and send it to an expecting mom who could use the reminder that taking care of her body matters too. 🤍

If you’ve ever felt guilty for taking a rest day, you’re definitely not alone.

It’s easy to think you should always be doing more, but recovery is part of how your body actually gets stronger and adapts.

Training matters, but so does giving your body enough recovery to actually benefit from it. 🙌

There are so many fitness and rehab myths floating around, and honestly, it’s easy to believe the things we hear the most.

But just because something is common advice doesn’t always mean it’s the right advice for your body.

At Total Performance Physical Therapy, we want you to feel confident in what you’re doing, stop normalizing pain, fatigue, and discomfort, and actually understand what will help you move and feel better. 💪

Not knowing which exercise is safe for your body? Not hot.

Getting clear, individualized guidance from someone who actually understands how your body moves? Hot. 🔥

Giving yourself high-quality care so you can get back to doing what you love? VERY hot. 😎

If you’re tired of guessing and want a plan that actually makes sense for you, Lindsay would love to help you get there.

One of the best parts of what I do is getting to work with people who are genuinely committed to moving better, feeling better, and performing better. 💪

Jim has been an athlete his whole life and now spends a lot of his time golfing. Our work together has been about finding that balance between rehab, strength training, mobility, flexibility, and stability so he can keep playing consistently and with less pain. ⛳

I work with a lot of golfers who want to improve how their body moves, build more strength, and stay on the course without constantly fighting aches and limitations.

I’m always grateful for clients who put in the work both in the clinic and on their own. That effort is what makes the biggest difference. 🙌 Jim Gatward

If you’re working toward moving better, feeling stronger, or performing at a higher level, I’d love to help you get there.
