Maddie smashes wrist pain and lifts 68kg like a pro

If you’ve ever had wrist pain this will change your life?

When Maddie came to me she couldn't snatch…

She hurt her wrist for the second time in the lead up to a competition and she was devastated.⁠
⁠
She had the pain on and off for months now.

The last time it flared up was when the competed.

And the next time she competed it flared up again.

She was worried if she kept lifting she’d do permanent damage to her body.

That was going to ruin all of her progress.

Or even worse mean that she lost all her strength.

Her confidence…

And would mean that she had to give up lifting for good.

Which wouldn’t have been good for her mental health.

She’d already rested and been to see an osteopath.

But they just told her to stop lifting for 4 weeks...⁠
⁠
And as soon as she went back to lifting the pain came back.⁠
⁠
She felt lost and worried about whether she’d ever be able to lift heavy again…⁠
⁠⁠
Then she found me…⁠
⁠
And I told her she didn’t need to stop lifting!⁠
⁠
We just needed to train smarter.⁠
⁠
She was so relieved!⁠
⁠
After just 4 weeks she was snatching 60kg pain free...⁠
⁠
All because she’d had a Data Driven Assessment to find the root cause of her wrist pain…

And got a Performance Programme to address the root cause of the injury (and fix it for good)⁠.

She now feels strong and confident that she can lifting heavy again.⁠
⁠
So strong in fact that the other day she snatched this 68kg pain free (just 4kg under her PB)!⁠
