  • Spring weather got you excited to pedal the miles away? Ever heard that song "which one of these is not like the other one?" You are unique and deserve a fit unique to you - protocols and checklists used by most fit shops do not apply at UVA.. Proper bike health is a combination of rider position, training, and drills and exercises for you to reach your potential as an athlete. The best way to identify these aspects and prep for a successful cycling season is to get fit by a medical professional who understands the sport.

Testimonials

I wanted you to know the success I have had since coming to UVA and counseling with you. I am now heading to the world championships in Kona for the Ironman. You were right, once I got my technique better in the run I was able to take almost an hour and half off my marathon during the race. I moved from the running leg taking on average for 6 ironman’s over 5:30 hours to running a 4:06 in Coeur d’Alene this year. I like running now and enjoy it as if I were a kid, limited pain and much calmer.

Your analysis and recommendations have paid off big time. Kona is Oct. 10th and I am looking forward to the celebration of 7 years of struggle to qualify and new way of enjoying the running experience.

I would love to continue my studies and discovery to see if I can further improve. I would love to come back down for a tune up.

Principles of Injury Rehabilitation

The majority of running injuries are related to overuse. We do too much, too fast, too soon. Most injuries occur during a transition period-a period where our training is undergoing some type of change. Common examples include increasing mileage too quickly, changing intensity of training, such as moving from a base/distance phase to a strength or speed phase, changing the surface one trains on, or even changing the type of running shoes. Rarely do I see injuries in folks who train very consistently, unless they are in the middle of a transition phase. The transition, rather than the absolute amount of training, seems to be liked closely to injury.
