Musician Fitness

This one’s for my fellow musicians.
Playing-related pain and overuse issues (often called RSI) are extremely common—studies show the majority of musicians deal with them at some point, especially in the hands, wrists, forearms, neck, and shoulders.
I came across some solid content from another physical therapist who’s also a musician. He’s got practical tips and stretches that can help keep things moving better. Check it out:

Are You Functional for Your Age?

Most people over 50 start losing strength, balance, and confidence — and they just accept it.
You don’t have to though.
I specialize in helping men and women 50+ move better and get stronger using the 7 foundational movement patterns every body needs:
• Push
• Pull
• Hinge
• Squats
• Carries
• Rotationals / Anti-Rotationals
• Planks & Holds
Whether you want less pain, better balance, more energy, or to stay strong for the things you love — training should meet you where you are.
Training as unique as you.
I’m currently accepting new clients for August and offering a FREE consult.

Love this!! Happy Saturday folks!

This is a personal/business post and shout out! So proud of my Bess Forshaw. I won’t say the age, but I will say I don’t know many people her age doing a continuous 7 min wall sit and also being able to seated row 85lbs for 10…. Wow! 🤩

Fitness isn’t about everyone always trying to look good in the mirror. It’s about feeling your best and still making progress! That is what it is about!

Break the norm! There are so many ways to improve Core strength that don’t require crunches and sit ups. Add this to your routine 2 - 3 days a week for 3 - 30 sec sets. Then, see if you can work up to a minute at a time. You will be amazed at the difference it makes in your posture and reducing lower back pain.

The reverse plank forces your posterior chain to work against gravity in an unfamiliar orientation. Your glutes and hamstrings must generate tension working on long lever. Meanwhile, your scapular stabilizers, particularly the lower trapezius and serratus anterior, must maintain active shoulder positioning, while your shoulder joint reaches its end range of extension. Your abdominal muscles work isometrically to prevent arching, while your posterior deltoids and triceps create the pushing force to maintain elevation. This exercise simultaneously develops integrated posterior chain strength and shoulder stability. #reverseplank #plank

Willie Nelson's approach to fitness is centered on the philosophy of "moving it or losing it." His daily routine relies on simple movements like jogging in place, sit-ups, arm and leg rolls, and stretching. He also holds a 5th-degree black belt in martial arts, notably GongKwon Yusul and Taekwondo.The Daily RoutineWillie's daily exercises are designed to get his blood flowing and loosen up his muscles rather than train like an athlete.

At 82 Mick Jagger says staying away from drugs and exercising daily has been the most important thing to his career.

So if you are a musician living the life and not focusing on your health in the process, then you are missing out on a big piece of the pie. Don’t just take my word for it. Listen to Mick! 😁
