Ask Keith – Shin Splints
“Keith, I am a runner and have been suffering from really painful shin splints lately. I am training for a ½ marathon and the pain is starting to slow me down a lot. I bought your Unbreakable Book a few months ago because of lower back and knee pain. I am thrilled to say that both of those issues are gone now. However, is there anything you can recommend for shin splints? I know I cant be the only person that is suffering from these, so maybe an article or even a future book on how to deal with them would be great (I would be your first customer!) Thanks for any advice you can give me Keith. (more…)
Ask Keith - How to do shoulder work when you have shoulder problems.
Keith,
I have been dealing with shoulder problems for the last couple of years. When I do your soft-tissue work from Unbreakable, they feel much better. However, once I start working out and doing the upper body work, I get some of the pain back again. I am wondering if I need to back off of doing things with my shoulders for a while r if there is anything else you can recommend. The good news is that my shoulders are MUCH better then they have been in 2 years since doing the Unbreakable program and I owe you so much thanks for that. (more…)
Ask Keith: Training with lumbar Disc Herniation
Ask Keith:
Keith, I have been suffering from a lower back injury for quite some time now and since I have been using the program from your book on the low back and hips, things have been getting better. However, I really want to push myself and be able to do what I used to do in the gym. I know I need to keep following the program and that will eventually get me better, but in the meantime, is there anything you can recommend that I can do to either speed up the process or other some things that I can do to get stronger without making things worse.

The Importance of the Warm Up
The Importance of the Warm Up
Warming up properly is just as important, or maybe more important for many people then doing anything else. In fact, many people are injured or living with pain because they didn’t have a proper warm up. It may be hard to prove, but my experience in treating people with injuries for the past 18 years, I would have to say that many of them were injured because they did not have a good and proper warm up routine.

The “Process” of rehabilitating an injury
I get asked questions a lot like… “how long will it take for this problem to go away” or “Will I be able to do such and such after I finish doing your plug-ins?” (more…)
Elbow Pain, Triceps Tendinosis.
I get emails a lot about bad lower backs, sore knees, and hurt shoulders. Those are the “big three” as I like to call them concerning common injuries that I see and hear about. There is no doubt that those three areas are what most people deal with and what I have helped people with the most.
However, there are some other areas of the body that I get a lot of questions about and today, I am going to talk a little about the elbow, in particular elbow pain. (more…)
