Forward and Reverse 🔄🔄

Core control meets coordination! Don’t let Colin’s stellar performance fool you… bosu plank are already difficult in itself, but add in a ball to cup challenge for a real burner 🥵

This exercise combines core stability, shoulder strength, balance and motor control — all while testing your ability to stay controlled under pressure!

💪 Focus on:
✅ Keeping your core engaged
✅ Maintaining a stable plank position
✅ Controlling the BOSU tilt
✅ Guiding the ball into the cup with precision (extra challenge if you go backwards 😉)

It’s not just about getting the ball in the cup — it’s about controlling the movement every step of the way! 👏

Would you give this one a try and beat Colin’s time??

Forget dual tasking - this exercise is a triple threat working on improving balance, cognitive function, and coordination.

Dual and “triple tasking” exercises can be useful both in treating the neurological population after strokes and concussions, but it can also be applied to the athletic population to train for the high physical and mental demands on the field or court.

If you or someone you know is looking for a triple threat physical therapist, call or visit our website to schedule an evaluation today!

We're so honored to expand and continue serving . It's been over 26 years now too!!

One of our fav reviews posted said:

"I am lucky that my doctor referred me to Richmond Physical Therapy because I have now been a patient there twice. The atmosphere is very friendly, the therapists are top notch, good listeners and coaches. Working to come back from an injury can be touch at times and this team really helps you through it."

Your ability to keep your body’s center of gravity stable over a base of support is BALANCE.

It relies on your brain, muscles, eyes, and inner ear working together.

Good balance helps improve movement efficiency, prevents injuries, and supports overall physical control.

🏃  Benefits for Athletes  🏃

Better Power Transfer:
Strong stability helps athletes jump higher, cut sharply, and hit or throw with more force without wasting energy.

Improved Agility:
Quick direction changes become faster and more precise when an athlete controls their center of gravity.

Injury Prevention:
Good balance strengthens small stabilizing muscles and joints, lowering the risk of ankle sprains, ACL tears, and falls under stress.

Enhanced Coordination:
Smooth neuromuscular control allows for complex athletic skills with greater accuracy.

👟 Benefits for People in General:  👟

Fall Prevention:
Strong stability prevents dangerous slips and falls, especially as people age.

Easier Daily Tasks:
Routine movements like climbing stairs, carrying groceries, or reaching for high items require steady postural control.

Core Strength and Posture:
Maintaining balance engages abdominal and lower back muscles, which supports the spine and reduces back pain.

Brain Health:
Challenging your balance improves spatial awareness, focus, and overall neuromuscular reflexes.

SHOWN: Nick working the QL muscle with a patient at our new Ridgefield location.

🤷 What is your QL?

The quadratus lumborum (QL) is your deep lower back muscle that connects your pelvis, spine, and lower ribs.

🧐 So what happens when you have a weak QL muscle?

Weakness in this muscle leads to pelvic and spinal instability, postural slumping, increased fall risk, compromised breathing, and chronic lower back pain as you age.

To prevent these symptoms from progressing, they worked on:

🔹 stretching hamstrings
🔹 stretching quadratus lumborum
🔹 soft tissue mobilization of QL
🔹 top left glute and lumbar stretching
🔹 top right glute medius strengthening
🔹 bottom left muscle release for QL

Effective gait training in physical therapy requires targeting the core, hip, thigh, and lower leg muscles that control balance, weight-bearing, and limb advancement.

Continuing to make great progress! Just in time for all the upcoming fall marathons 🙌🏃‍♀️
