Gryffin

Dog Trainer and Loves to bench press

Needs:

Was preparing for a 4th knee surgery and turned to Intentional Sport Performance as a last resort
He suffered from spondylolisthesis (a painful spinal condition), the effects of 3 failed knee surgeries (including a lateral release), and the effects of brain surgery
Before training, he relied on a mobility service dog, cane or wheelchair to get around
He could only work part-time at his job because of his injuries and disability
Used a combination of morphine, fentanyl, and Vicodin to try and control the pain (only somewhat effective)

Summary

Gryffin (dead name Shauna/Shaun) had been very physically active in high school, including playing on his school’s football team. He first injured his knee by accidentally twisting it while walking up the stairs of his high school and severely tearing the tissue in his knee. This was the beginning of his battle with disability.

After training with ISP using Muscle Activation Techniques and Rehabilitative Strength Training (Our True Core Program), Gryffin no longer needed the 4th knee surgery and learned to walk again unassisted. He eventually set his sights on learning how to run again and build back up to his previous bench press PR (personal record).
