Don’t Skip Steps

Recently, my son Stephon has taken a deep interest in sports.

He’s really started getting into playing basketball.

After work and on the weekends, we will shoot around and play on our hoop at home.

He recently asked me if I could help him be more consistent with his shooting. I told him I’d be happy too!

When he goes out to shoot, he always starts with shooting three pointers.

He wants to be like his favorite player Stephen Curry.

I told him that he can’t skip steps. You don’t go on the court and start shooting threes to become a better shooter.

You need to start shooting closer to the basket.

This will help improve his muscle memory, timing, footwork, balance, and strength.

As his accuracy improves, he can start moving farther away from the basket when he shoots.

Stephon, begrudgingly followed my advice and what do you know?

He started making shots left and right and his confidence was through the roof!

Instead of going inside when it’s hot, he now gets more water and keeps working on his game outside.

His attitude, confidence, and results changed due to him not skipping steps!

The same is true when we want to lose weight, get out of pain, have more energy etc.

-Having a consistent mobility/flexibility routine will help you with nagging aches and pains.

-Eating 80-90% of the time whole, unprocessed foods will help you keep the weight off for the long haul.

-Getting 7-9 hours of sleep a night will help with inflammation and curbing overeating.

-Looking for ways to serve others on a consistent basis will help you with situational depression and having a better mindset!

Whatever you want to improve at, don’t skip steps and focus on the habits that you will be consistent with to help you reach your goals!

What are you going to do today to make your life more healthy, enjoyable, and a blessing to others?

I have been working with Marc for almost two years. He has been extremely effective in reducing neurogenic pain in my hips and knees. In addition, he has worked on my balance and overall strength which was in serious need of attention. Marc is very responsive to designing exercise strategies to meet **your** specific goals and needs. I highly recommend Marc if you are looking for an exercise physiologist or trainer.

After many tried and failed programs either online or in a public gym or CG, I finally have a program I have stuck w consistantly for over a year. At the year mark, I even decided that I loved going to UPT so much, I upped my sessions from 2x to 3x a week. Now, I am sad if I miss a session. My pain is gone. I was a chronic pain patient for over 10 years with various issues causing said pain. Marc's knowledge of how muscles work and how to guide them back to their proper place is pretty cool. When he asks how your body is feeling, he expects you to tell him if something is off so he can help and prevent further injury. Plus... he tells corny dad jokes.
