Doing the work with PBA TOUR athlete, Kyle Sherman

Always appreciate the opportunity to help people overcome injury, get out of pain, and perform at their best!

When Kyle Sherman came to Chicago to represent Storm Bowling Products to ACTIVATE the White Sox game in promotion of National Bowling Day (August 8), of course we hit the lab for about 2.5 hours to help Kyle improve his stability, function, and CORE STRENGTH & ENDURANCE 💪
Growth mindset, humility, and hard work have been pillars that are helping him improve deficits and optimize performance 🎯

My man killed it on the microphone during his first year in the broadcast booth, as color commentator on the The CW during the TV finals! These sessions and Kyle’s grit & efforts ought to catapult him to present Chris Barnes more chances to fill his seat because Kyle Sherman will make more TV Finals shows next year! 😉 👊

We chat briefly in this video about Kyle’s vocal impersonations of the animal kingdom. 🫎 🐅 🐁

Our hang concluded with one of my favorite Chicago things to do: an architecture boat tour of the Chicago River & Lake Michigan with our families!
What a great weekend!!!

Who’s next?! 🤔

Butters’ candle shone brightly 🕯️

…and yet way too quickly.
It is with a heavy heart & sincere condolences to those villagers close to him, as well as the bowling community, that I send thoughts and prayers for peace and healing. ❤️‍🩹

Dubsdread at Cog Hill did not disappoint!
🤗 🏌️🤩 ⛳️

A fun day with athletes, & was had by all! (Sorry but you were in Sweden 🙄)

Offering a splendid challenge without being as punishing as I had thought. Don’t know why I waited 15 years to give this gem a try…and as EJ said, “playing this course WILL make you a better golfer!”

Looking forward to the next time! 🤘

Prone Swimmers & Prone Handcuffs

DO THESE to:
💎 CORRECT Forward Shoulder Posture
💎 ENHANCE Shoulder Mobility
💎 FORTIFY Upper Back Strength
💎 COMBAT “Tech Neck”

This simple to perform exercise is sneaky harder than you think! 🤩

Bodyweight (BW) exercise requiring only a bench that focuses on neuromuscular control of your shoulder blades (scapula) which will pay enormous dividends on posture, shoulder stability, overhead function, & posterior chain activation! 💪

Try 8-10 reps, no load;
MINDFUL CONTROL.
3 sets
Frequency: Every other Day
Increment reps and isometric hold time (Time Under Tension) as you improve

Sean Lavery-Spahr gets MOTIVated

Elite athletes are not immune to injuries.
How you prepare maximizes resiliency. 💪
How you respond shapes your recovery 🧠 🏋️‍♀️ ❤️‍🩹

Appreciate the shout out here from PBA TOUR athlete Sean Lavery here at the World Series of Bowling (WSOB).

Looks like Sean’s approach and response yielded positive fruit, as he was able to overcome nagging injuries to earn a spot (alongside partner and BROTHER Anthony 🤩) in the Championship Match in the Roth/Holman Doubles Event!
Congratulations and love your intensity & purpose! 👊

CURTSY LUNGE for
Dynamic Lower Body Stabilization

Great 👍🏼 DYNAMIC COMPOUND EXERCISE requiring LITTLE TO NO EQUIPMENT

Load: Dumbbell, Kettlebell, Bowling Ball, or NOTHING (just Body Weight).

Symmetry: Can load BOTH HANDS, or purposely ASYMMETRIC, like pictured above which SIMULATES FUNCTIONAL MOVEMENT in the sport of bowling 🎳.

Training 🎯: CORE, HIPS, LEGS, Dynamic BALANCE, all of which are necessary for athletic performance!

Focus: Motor Control and Coordination; with Gaze Stabilization on your target line.

Technique:
🔑 One foot firmly in front of you, move your curtsy leg back diagonally back and behind you.
🔑 CORE ENGAGED with head and chest upright
🔑 Maintain knee stable (not caving IN or OUT)
🔑 Slowly lower your back knee until it is near the ground while under CONTROL
🔑 Engage your GLUTES as you stand back up

Perform 6 quality reos on one leg, then 6 on the other leg, which equals one set.
3 sets in total.

Feel free to vary load type, placement, as well as isometric hold at end range of lunge position 👊🏼

Amleto Monacelli demonstrates great control and posture throughout this exercise designed to MAXIMIZE POWER GENERATION from your LOWER HALF! 💪🏻
