What YOU can do after back surgery!

With the right therapy and training you can be pain free and very able. These are two lifts I did in the Saint Patrick's Day Weightlifting Championships at Cal State Fullerton. One is a 68 kilo gram (138lbs) clean & jerk, the other is a 51kg (112lbs) snatch. I use these lifts in my training for volleyball, along with squats these are lifts ALL athletes should use.

It's always nice to hear.

A client of mine who's been working with me since he had hip replacement surgery went skiing for the first time since the surgery. He's in his early 60's and said not only did the hip feel fine but he felt stable, strong and very confident. Hearing stuff like that never gets old! Thanks Dana!
