HAPPY MOTHERS DAY!!
The weight of this world is too much for any one person to carry, but that gets hard to believe when we see Mommas like YOU everyday! ๐Ÿซต๐Ÿ™‚โ€โ†•๏ธ

Whether youโ€™re coming in to work on your goals, or coming in to make sure your loved one gets to their bag, we know how much thought and love goes into every action

TO ALL THE MOMMAS! The moms who keep pushing, and the ones who need a break. The moms who show up for their people, and the ones who โ€œforgotโ€ about themselves.
Today may have the Title, but Every Day is your Day.

TEST DAY TUUEESSDAAYYY ๐Ÿ—ฃ๏ธ๐Ÿงช๐Ÿ“
Today is the ABALAKOV JUMP which is a little different than weโ€™ve been showing yall! ๐Ÿ‘๏ธ๐Ÿ‘„๐Ÿ‘๏ธ Instead of a Physical Exam weโ€™re coming at you with a Strength Test we perform on our ForceDecks!๐Ÿ‹๏ธ

The Abalakov Jump is a CMJ (Countermovement Jump) that involves the arms! ๐Ÿฆต๐Ÿ’ช You start standing tall with your arms raised straight up, and go into a quick downward movement (Countermovement) while swinging the arms back, before leaping up as high as you can & swinging the arms up with you! ๐Ÿ†™๐Ÿ†™๐Ÿ†™
The Abalakov and other CMJโ€™s are very fundamental movements in Sports, Training, and Return to Activity, that offers wide perspectives into a persons Strength, Neuromuscular Efficiency, and overall Functional Capacity ๐Ÿง ๐Ÿ™†
Not only do we use this as a measure of performance, but also as a tool to help with potential diagnostics!๐Ÿค•VALD systems allow us to be able to read tons of metrics like Power, Force Asymmetry, & Movement Strategy ๐Ÿคพโ€โ™‚๏ธโ›น๏ธโ€โ™‚๏ธ Tools like the ForceDecks give us numerical data that highlights Nuanced Force, Time, and Displacement Characteristics, giving us insight into hundreds of trackable metrics that lets us personalize your programming even further! ๐Ÿ“Š๐Ÿ“ˆ๐Ÿ“‰๐Ÿ‘จโ€๐Ÿ’ป
