Never Get Injured Again

The Fitness Pyramid: Bullet-Proofing Your Body From Injury

I was training for my next triathlon when it happened. I fell off my bike, breaking my collar bone and tearing all the ligaments in my knee. 

Healing a bruised ego was manageable, but building my fitness again felt overwhelming. But just 3 months later I was pain free, and I'm going to tell you how I did it...


What I didn't understand at the time is that just because pain goes away does not mean you are healthy. 

There are steps to building fitness, and if you skip steps you risk getting injured. I'd gotten stuck in a cycle of injury from my racing and I wanted to end that cycle. Have you ever felt that way?


THE FITNESS PYRAMID: Building Blocks of Being Injury Free

Movement is the key to being pain free. Fitness has 4 main building blocks, which I call "The Fitness Pyramid." These elements will lead to well-rounded fitness that bullet-proof your body from injury while allowing you to realize your fitness potential... aka get super fit!

4 Building Blocks Of Fitness:

  1. Mobility: The passive ability to have your joints move through a full range of motion

  2. Stability: The active ability to CONTROL your joints through a full range of motion

  3. Strength Training: Resisting movement through a full range of motion

  4. Skill: Using your fitness to play a sport or perform some skilled movement

THE GOOD NEWS...
The good news is that our Coaches include all these elements into your workout program. 

Your training cycles will keep building your fitness, while preventing injury. You don't have to worry if you'll get injured, if you're over-doing it or working out "wrong." 

With EDX, results are guaranteed (as long as you follow the program!)


Onwards,
