I believe athletes must adhere to methods outside of the gym to enhance recovery, and prevent potential injuries. Most injuries can be prevented with simple treatments and regular tune ups. Quite often, I see too many athletes delay treatment of nagging injuries, incurring further unnecessary damage. This is why I am proud to announce that I have incorporated a program with Dr Mike Prebeg (Athletes Performance Care Treat). My athletes will be monitored and assessed all summer in order to ensure they reach their highest physical potential during the 2014, off season training program.
