Injury prevention should be step 1 in any fitness program (or activity). However, life is sometimes messy, and injuries happen. The problem is, most people fail to get the proper treatment, or figure out what caused the issue in the first place. That’s why reinjury is so common.

Today, we received this email from one of our clients who was frustrated by pain, injury, and lack of progress in getting out of the rehab, re-injury cycle. I thought it summed up our approach to coaching and injury prevention so well, that I decided to share it with you…

“I would like to express my immense gratitude for the outstanding work you did with me. I had spent literally thousands of dollars in physio, chiro, massage, equipment, medication, etc. No that that didn’t work, it probably did. The problem was that what was causing the unbearable pain, the root of the problem, was not corrected so after every therapy and a bit of relief I kept moving and working out in the same way just to end up in the next therapy.

After the Functional movement assessment you did on me and your guidance on how to walk, carry loads, posture and else my body feels amazing, my energy level has gone up, I feel happy again (pain was causing permanent sadness and lack of motivation for an active life).

I know I still have a path to go towards full recovery but so far after 10 sessions I just feel probably 90% back to normal.

A BIG BIG THANK YOU!!!!!

L.E.P.”

For over a year, I have had the pleasure of being coached by Tim Borys.

Every one of our sessions in the gym was a chance for me to learn – not just ‘get fit.’ Tim shared with me his broad and inclusive approach to wellness, teaching me that my overall well-being is about more than food choices and workouts.

In his characteristically light-hearted and relatable way, Tim provided me with practical and easy-to-follow tips and suggestions on how to best care for myself in our not-always-health-friendly world.

Tim’s book, “The Fitness Curveball” is an extension of what it’s like to work with him – conversational, approachable, clear and practical. Tim pulls on his experience as a high performance athlete and coach, and mixes in the knowledge he’s picked up through his diverse studies, creating a book that’s both highly enjoyable and useful.

Unlike so many wellness books that have made me wonder how I could possibly live what I’m learning, The Fitness Curveball outlines an approach to health and wellness that I can easily incorporate into my daily life.

Personal Training Success Story

In fact, reading The Fitness Curveball is like having your own personal coach with you at all times, gently reminding you how to best care for yourself and why you deserve to give yourself the gift of health.

While I highly recommend working directly with Tim and the FRESH! team, the next best thing is getting his book.

The Fitness Curveball is a must-read for anyone who needs a reminder about what it really means to be healthy and wants encouragement on how to get there.
