Shoulder pain? Limited mobility? Trouble pressing or pulling comfortably?

Our FREE workshop series continues at American Strength Training Center!

This time, we’re focusing on SHOULDER PAIN & FUNCTION.

We’re bringing together two perspectives under one roof: rehabilitation and strength coaching.

Dr. Jessy Johnson, DC, Ken Graack, and Angela Nguyen will walk you through how the shoulder moves, what we look for when assessing movement, and how mobility, motor control, and strength work together.

And just like our previous workshops, this isn’t about sitting and listening for an hour.

You’ll learn, practice, ask questions, and leave with practical tools you can apply to your training.

Saturday, November 21
12:00–1:00 PM
American Strength Training Center | Maplewood, MN

FREE | Open to members and non-members

Whether you’re new to lifting, an experienced athlete, a coach, or simply someone who wants to move better, you’re welcome to join us.

A pretty great day for the American Strength crew at Monster’s Bash! 🏋️‍♀️

Months of training, preparation, and hard work brought a whole group of our lifters to the platform today. Some competing for the first time, others returning to challenge themselves again.

Between Ken, Connor, and Angela, we had quite the crew representing American Strength!

Different experience levels, different goals, but all showing up to put their training to the test. PRs, successful lifts, lessons learned, and plenty of cheering each other on.

One of the best parts of this sport is the community that comes with it. Watching our members support one another, celebrate each other’s lifts, and share the experience is what makes days like this so special.

Proud of everyone who stepped onto the platform today and grateful for the community we’re building at American Strength!

Movement gives us information.

As coaches, we’re not only looking at whether you can complete the movement. We’re looking at how you get there.

What are your hips doing?

Do you have similar options side to side?

What happens when one side has less internal or external rotation available?

Do you shift, rotate, or find another strategy to complete the movement?

Sometimes those differences are small. But they give us information.

They help us know what questions to ask, what we may want to assess further, and ultimately how to better coach the person in front of us.

The goal isn’t to make everyone move exactly the same.

It’s understanding the person in front of us well enough to coach them better.

MAY WE NEVER FORGET!

Bracing doesn’t look exactly the same for every lift.

On the bench, we’re intentionally creating extension—but that doesn’t mean we stop managing pressure.

Instead of thinking about pulling the abs down and flattening everything, think about using your breath to expand into the position you’ve created. Rib cage. Trunk. 360° pressure.

The position changes. The skill of creating and controlling pressure doesn’t.

That’s why bracing is a skill—not just “get tight.”
