Glenn and I earlier this week went into the city of San Francisco to meet with founder and head coach of San Francisco Crossfit Kelly Starrett. Kelly is a strength and conditioning coach as well as a doctor of physical therapy. He has worked with many great athletes and his name is well known for getting great athletes to reexamine their training and become even greater. For the past couple weeks my hip was bothering me again causing me to not stand up quick enough out of my cleans. After 30 minutes with Kelly I went into training the next day and kicked ass, standing up with a 200 clean faster than I ever have in practice before. Going into Nationals next week I feel awesome to have someone like Kelly in my corner supporting me. Thank you Kelly for working with me. I highly recommend anyone in need of physical therapy or who wants to be a champion to check out Kelly Starrett and San Francisco Crossfit.
I'm glad you had good success! What were some of the things he did differently than others who've worked on you that you felt made a big difference?
ReplyDeleteKelly is great. He also has a daily mobility blog with 10 min mobility workouts you can follow to help with range of motion, training, and overall flexibility. Mobilitywod.blogspot.com
ReplyDeleteSuperman you will have to talk to Kelly about that. I'm just a weightlifter. I can't tell you what Kelly did. I can tell you how to Snatch and Clean & Jerk though.
