Why Rotational Strength is the Missing Link in Most Training Programs
Most training programs focus heavily on forward and backward movement, but real life and sport rarely happen in straight lines. At Living Well Physical Therapy & Performance, we often see injuries in active adults and athletes that stem from one overlooked area: rotational strength. Without the ability to create and control rotation through the hips and core, the body compensates in ways that can lead to pain and inefficiency. Building rotational strength is often the missing link to improving performance, reducing injury risk, and helping your body move the way it was designed to.
