High School Sculler Overcomes Chronic Back Pain!
September 26, 2012
I am a Body Balance believer! As a junior sculler, I struggled with back pain through the fall season of 2011. It soon began affecting my performance on and off the water. After several trips to the orthopedist and several months of physical therapy, I was still having back pain. With the approaching spring season, the lack of results was extremely frustrating. My coach attended one of Coach Kaehler’s “Body Balance 2-Day Seminars”, and thought that he could help me. I went to see Coach K in February 2012 where he identified some strength and flexibility deficiencies. After about six weeks on his Body Balance program, I began to row, again, with much less pain. I kept up my exercises through the spring season, and by May, I was rowing pain free. I saw Coach K, again, at the end of May, and we added erging and strength training into my program. By the end of June, I had a new 2k PR on the erg and in July, my quad earned a gold medal at Club Nationals. Coach K’s Body Balance program really does work.
