What to expect: Your first appointment will be focussed on assessment. We will talk about your goals, your previous exercise experiences, prior injuries. We'll do the Functional Movment Screen and a core assessment and then come up with a 5 minute warm-up routine specifically for you. If we decide we are a good fit, the way we will progress will be to start from the inside (i.e. "the core") and work out, start from the ground and work up. Most athletes will progress to a some form of loaded squat, loaded hinge, building straight arm strength and loaded carries.
