ISP worked with Brandon to overcome his back injury and adjust his training program to enhance his performance and avoid re-injury. He came to ISP because..."I did a little bit of research, and it felt like it offered something that I wasn't getting through traditional physical therapy or any of my chiropractic care, and my back was in such pain and it was so debilitating, that I was willing to try everything. So even though this seemed a little more unique, I came in and felt like the results were pretty immediate and helpful...It's almost complete recovery at this point and it's been about 4-6 weeks. The weights on the bar are about right where I was before I was injured."
“It has been a really good experience. I have noticed a significant difference on my fitness level and energy level. I've gone down 2 pant sizes, which is fantastic. And Katrina has really helped me understand and make the right kind of health choices in terms of being physically active and nutrition. Just do it. Just like Nike says. Just do it."
“I think the world of her [Coach Katrina]! She is very unusual as a coach. She's very open-minded, she'll listen to what you have to say, and address the problems you have. And what's really neat, is that working with her made me concentrate on certain exercises, giving them my all. But more than that, she made it fun. She has a special way of getting the most out of your workout and getting the most out of you.”
"I love it [MAT]. I absolutely love it. I feel like so often a lot of patients put their hat in one arena as far as receiving care, when sometimes they need a couple of different things to achieve the best results. I have plenty of patients who I know have muscle activation issues that I know for sure need your services."
With ISP's help, Rick qualified for the Olympic Weight Lifting World Championships and was inducted into the New York State Strength and Power Hall of Fame in the same year.
"It has been a lot of fun working with Katrina and I have gotten some amazing results! I am faster, stronger, and have better mobility...Coach Katrina was exactly what I needed! I would definitely recommend training with her if you want to take your performance to the next level and also overcome and avoid injury."
ISP helped Nika resolve knee pain, drop 6 pant sizes and run a 5k in 3 months. In her own words..."She has been amazing. I have finally been able to do exercises and using weights that I'd never thought I'd be able to use. I highly recommend Katrina because she not only focuses on body, but on the inside - everything! She's the whole package."
Nick is a BJJ instructor and retired MMA fighter. Here are his thoughts on MAT, "I had a consistent stinger in my neck that had been going on for 6 or 7 months and towards the end before coming in to see Katrina, my thumb and forefinger were pretty much buzzing 24/7. It was time to do something. Worse case scenario, I though I would need neck surgery. But it just turns out I wasn't moving correctly...Katrina's constantly chasing the problem and you couldn't ask for more from someone who's trying to help you."
Jiazi is an avid skier, hiker, and kayaker who wanted to improve her fitness and recover from an ankle injury. In her own words, "My experience has been nothing short of amazing! This personalized approach has not only aided in my healing but also in strengthening my body significantly. Katrina is more than a trainer; she's a crucial part of my health journey. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a personalized and effective fitness experience."
Rick first heard about MAT from a fellow Olympic lifting competitor who he was coaching. He was hoping that a different approach could possibly help his situation.
He was less than 2 weeks away from a qualifying competition to be eligible to compete in the World Championships, and was out of options.
