Keanne is part of the HSU Women’s soccer team, played for the Philippine Youth National Soccer Team 2018-2020 and played for the Philippine Women’s National Soccer Team that qualified for the 2023 FIFA Women’s World cup. ⚽️🏆She also volunteers with Big Brothers Big Sisters, is a soccer coach for HSU kids’ camps, and provides private soccer training sessions. @hsuathletics @hsu_wsoc Alongside her internship experience at BWPT, you may also see Ke in a patient role…working hard to recover from her recent ACL surgery. This girl knows how to work hard and will have a unique perspective & empathy for her future patients. 💪🏼 If you see Ke in the clinic, be sure to say hi!!

POV: You’ve been stretching that “tight” muscle for a hot minute and nothing improves 😭 …maybe it’s time to go see a DPT to identify the WHY 👍 It’s not to say that stretching shouldn’t be done at all, but it’s recommended to approach it in a more comprehensive way such as strengthening exercises to address the underlying issues & a specific stretching prescription that’s helpful & not a waste of your time. Other considerations: 🧐Over stretching causes more issues: If you only stretch the tight muscles, you may be perpetuating the underlying muscle imbalances that caused the tightness in the first place. 🧐 Stretching may not address the root cause: Tight hamstrings and hip flexors are often a sign of underlying issues such as weakness and being under-trained, weakness is surrounding muscles such as the glutes/core, muscle imbalances, poor posture, or biomechanical issues. If this sounds like you & you’re ready to get to the bottom of your pain & tightness, give us a call or text at 325-261-0043 👍 📞 ——————————————————— At BWPT & Performance, our mission is to help KEEP ATHLETES & ACTIVE PEOPLE ACTIVE by optimizing recovery, performance, and injury prevention.

We will have sand & scales available to stuff your ruck (see post for prescribed weights). You are also welcome to walk or run the course “ruck free.” All proceeds go directly towards providing resources & support for students in the Big Country! 👍 To register click the link in our bio 🔗 or scan the QR code on the post.

💥FAQ💥 What if the weather is bad? - Rain or shine, we are rucking! This is a non-refundable event. Where should I park? - There will be plenty of parking on site & volunteers to direct you to the perfect spot. 🚘 What should I wear? - This is an off road trail with rocky terrain so dress for the weather & wear close-toed shoes. 🥾 What if I want to stuff my own bag or bring my own weight vest/ruck? - Go for it! We also recommend bringing a water bottle to stay hydrated. 💦 
Will there be coffee or hot drinks? - DUH! @thefarmhouse_abi will be on site ready to keep you warm & caffeinated for your trip down the trail. ☕️ Still have questions? Shoot us a DM! _______________________________________

A vision supported by community 🤝 At BODY WORX, we push the traditional boundaries of healthcare with a step-by-step, performance based approach that is centered around treating the root cause, strong patient-provider relationships, top notch treatment, and helping you crush YOUR GOALS 👊 When INJURY, PAIN, or FRUSTRATION strikes...who you gonna call? (Hint: NOT Ghost Busters 👻). The first step to helping you get back to feeling your best is to schedule a time to meet with one of our Doctors of PT so they can: 1️⃣ IDENTIFY the root cause. Whether you’re in pain or just looking to perform your best, we always start with a full evaluation to learn your body and your goals. 2️⃣ Next we RESTORE function. This is typically when traditional therapy ends, once you are deemed “fixed” by insurance companies - we see this as just the beginning of living your best life. 3️⃣ From here, we focus on OPTIMIZING all aspects of your health and fitness so you can get back to all the activities you love, PERFORM your best, and equip you for long-term success 🏆🏅⭐️😎 No matter how big or small your goals are, we are here to assist you & hold you accountable every step of the way.🤝 Ready to start your journey?

Happiest of Birthdays to Dr. Amber, PT! We hope you have the best day! 🎉🥳

School is upon us! 📚🎒 Let’s talk backpack ergonomics…aka, best practices to use your school backpack for good and not as a contributing source of low back pain 🤪 Tips: ✅ keep the weight under 5-8 lbs! Or lighter ✅ take advantage of lockers & storing heavy items in a safe space/classroom at school ✅ only pack what’s necessary ✅ use both straps! If super light, of course you can alone it over the shoulder, but we’re talking notebooks only kinda light (do kids still write in notebooks? Lord we sure we hope so 🤨) ✅ adjust straps so the backpack fits comfortably between your shoulders & hips, saggy backpacks are from the 90s…let it die) Drop a 🎒 in the comments in you or your kid’s backpack weighs over 8 lbs! If your kids need a 3rd party “talkin’ to”…we got you covered 😉
