How fit are you, really? 👀
⁠
You can track your pace.⁠
You can track your mileage.⁠
You can track your heart rate.⁠
⁠
But there’s another way to measure aerobic fitness: VO₂ max testing.
⁠
VO₂ max testing provides objective data on how your body responds to exercise and gives you a measurable look at your aerobic capacity.⁠
⁠
At SWELL, testing can help you:⁠
⁠
📊 Establish a baseline⁠
📈 Track changes in fitness⁠
🏃 Better understand your endurance capacity⁠
🎯 Make more informed training decisions⁠
⁠
Instead of guessing where your fitness stands, TEST it.
⁠
Curious what your numbers look like?
⁠
📩 DM us to learn more about VO₂ max testing.⁠

🏃‍♂️ Ever have a run that just feels HARD?
⁠
Same route.⁠
Same shoes.⁠
Same pace.⁠
⁠
Before you assume you’ve suddenly lost fitness, look at the bigger picture.⁠
⁠
Your running can be affected by:⁠
⁠
😴 Sleep⁠
🧠 Stress⁠
🔥 Heat & humidity⁠
📈 Recent training load⁠
💪 Muscle fatigue⁠
🧘 Recovery⁠
🍽️ Fueling⁠
⁠
Your body doesn’t experience every run in a vacuum.⁠
⁠
Sometimes a harder-than-normal run is simply your body telling you that today calls for a little adjustment.⁠
⁠
Slow the pace.⁠
Shorten the run.⁠
Take the recovery day.⁠
⁠
One hard run doesn’t mean you’re getting less fit.
⁠
Learning to recognize when to push and when to recover is part of becoming a smarter, stronger runner.⁠
⁠
💾 Save this for the next time your “easy” run feels anything but easy.

What if physical therapy wasn’t just about getting out of pain?⁠
⁠
At SWELL Physical Therapy and Performance, the goal is bigger than simply treating the problem.⁠
⁠
It’s about helping you understand why it’s happening, building the strength and movement capacity to address it, and getting you back to doing the things you actually want to do.⁠
⁠
🏃 Run⁠
🏋️ Lift⁠
🏌️ Play⁠
🚴 Train⁠
💪 Move without constantly worrying about pain⁠
⁠
That might look like hands-on treatment.⁠
It might look like strength training.⁠
It might look like movement analysis, corrective exercises, or progressive loading.⁠
⁠
Because there isn’t one solution that works for everyone.⁠
⁠
The goal isn't just to get you feeling better.⁠
The goal is to help you become more capable!
⁠
If you're tired of sitting on the sidelines, let's get you moving again.⁠ 🤙

Feel better. Move better. Perform at your best.

🏃‍♀️ RUNNING TIP: Your easy runs should actually feel easy.

One of the easiest ways to check your effort?

Try the talk test. 🗣️

During an easy run, you should generally be able to speak in full sentences without feeling like you’re fighting for your breath.

If you’re struggling to carry on a conversation, take a look at your pace and effort.

And remember:

Easy doesn’t mean slow.

Your easy pace will be different from another runner’s - and it can change based on your fitness, terrain, weather, fatigue, and training phase.

The goal of an easy run is to build aerobic volume without turning every training day into a hard training day.

You don’t need to prove your fitness on every run. 🏃

Save this for your next easy day and check yourself with the talk test.

Runners, your strength training shouldn’t be an afterthought. 🏃‍♀️💪
⁠
Our small group strength sessions are designed to help runners build the strength, control, and capacity they need to handle the demands of running.⁠
⁠
Together, we work on:⁠
⁠
💪 Full-body strength⁠
🦵 Single-leg strength & stability⁠
⚡ Power & explosiveness⁠
🏃‍♀️ Running-specific movement⁠
📈 Progressive strength development⁠
⁠
The best part? You don't have to do it alone.⁠
⁠
You’ll train alongside other runners, receive coaching from our team, and have a program designed to complement your running - not compete with it.⁠
⁠
Whether you're training for your next race, trying to stay healthy while increasing mileage, or simply want to become a stronger runner, strength training belongs in your plan.
⁠
We currently have a couple of spots available in our small group.⁠
⁠
📩 DM us to learn more or reserve your spot!

Run more. Get stronger. Build your capacity. 🧡🩵⁠
