Are You Ready For The Slopes?

The last few weeks have been warmer than usual; it feels like the middle of summer.  Most people are still geared towards heading to the beach for a dip in the ocean to cool off.  However, it is the end of September and soon it will start to feel a lot like Christmas!  This means that the winter sports season is right around the corner and it is time to start preparing!!
Before you show up for basketball tryouts or head to the ski slopes, make sure you are ready.  Focusing on your fitness before the season starts will make you a better athlete and help to decrease and in many cases eliminate injuries.
Should your cardio training focus on distance or short interval work?
Do you have adequate leg strength to perform your sport?
Is your core in good shape? 
How about your posture, does it need some correcting?
Are you flexible enough to bend over and touch your toes?
Let an expert at Evolve Physical Therapy + Advanced Wellness evaluate your overall fitness and strength.  We will point out any areas that need a little fine tuning before the season starts.  Also, we will teach you proper body mechanics for your specific sport to help decrease your risk of injury.  Call our office today for a general health and wellness evaluation!
