One of our many talented members @savoymalone finding his #latitude. From despair to hope. Those are my favorite moments in PT. The moment you realize: I will get better. I'm not doomed to hurt for the rest of my days. In fact, the sky's the limit! My favorite thing about being a physical therapist is helping people challenge their own belief's about what's possible. Think beyond pain. Think beyond 80% better. Think beyond the allotted visits on your insurance plan. Think optimal function. Think about what you would do without limits. Meet @latitude.pt Austin's affordable concierge PT for runners and fitness athletes. . #rootsmvmt #youraustinphysio #barefoottribe #keepaustinrunning #austinrunners #barefootwalking #runningrehab #runatx #latitudept #borntorun #minimalist #barefoot #physicalfitness #atx #austin #getpt1st #movementculture #rewildyourself #biohacking #jointmobility #spinehealth #themissinglink #freethefoot #preventativehealth #movementismedicine #justplay #barefootisbetter (at Latitude PT) https://www.instagram.com/p/B6UA2gPl_OF/?igshid=oypv9d4jgaq5

#movementminute !!! Chances are you've been sitting in the same position for far too long today. It only takes mere seconds to do something good for the body. Try this one. Your squat may look different, that's ok. Your twist may look different, that's ok. I did a demo at 2 different heights, it doesn't matter. Squat & twist! Do a few times to each side; add some pauses; wiggle around a little bit of you feel like it! Don't submit to the sedentary! No amount of intense exercise can make up for a full day of sitting on your 🍑 Remember that. . #movementismedicine #rootsmvmt #youraustinphysio #barefoottribe #keepaustinrunning #austinrunners #barefootwalking #runningrehab #runatx #latitudept #borntorun #minimalist #barefoot #physicalfitness #atx #austin #getpt1st #movementculture #rewildyourself #biohacking #jointmobility #spinehealth #preventativehealth #justplay (at Latitude PT) https://www.instagram.com/p/COvssGtl3GG/?igshid=vq5sx8h516vs

Oh hey, it looks like lungs! 🙃 And six miles under 6 min per mile! 👣 Felt great... to know this big kid still gots it, haha! Really, it's no more than the people I surround myself with. Between @rawrunning and @oceanlabatx what an inspiring community of people! Thanks for pushing me at least once weekly 💪🏽🏃🏽‍♂️💨 . Thank you @pautur for teaching me a love for sport and nature and leadership when I was really just a kid in HS. Thank you @martin.phillip.goldmountain for coaching me into the competitor (in life) that I became. Thanks to the injuries, tribulations, heartbreak and loss that taught me more about what's important in life. Thanks to a community that's breathed new life into my favorite pastime. Thank you @softstarshoes for making the best shoes I've ever owned. And to all the #naturalfootwear brands out there that teach people their feet are strong and capable. Just check out what their about. You'll find a small honest company producing handmade shoe in the US, that are healthy for the feet with sustainability in mind. They showed up at my house in a recyclable pouch envelope thing! So very minimal packaging. And these shoes last! And no, they don't pay me, haha. But, you know who I am if you've read this far! Thank you #ptschool, @therunningclinic, my mentors and researchers for teaching me some things about feet and running! ...Amen lol 🙏🏽 . #rootsmvmt #youraustinphysio #barefoottribe #keepaustinrunning #austinrunners #barefootwalking #runningrehab #runatx #latitudept #borntorun #minimalist #barefoot #physicalfitness #atx #austin #getpt1st #movementculture #rewildyourself #biohacking #jointmobility #spinehealth #themissinglink #freethefoot #preventativehealth #movementismedicine #justplay #barefootisbetter (at The Ocean Lab) https://www.instagram.com/p/B8F_mPnFdnA/?igshid=q0365ivdvi0t

So I did a crazy thing! I ran in my primitive sandals from @earthrunners in a relay from Austin to Corpus Christi, TX for the Cap to Coast relay. 223 miles with a 12 man team (@rawrunning) and we took home 1st place! . But it was no simple feat. The amount of preparation that goes into an event like this is an undertaking. So thankful for the people at RAW and @underarmour for making this possible. I can't wait to see the footage as well! . Of the 3 legs I ran, which added up to about 20 miles total, I was happy with two of the efforts, while the first leg was a disaster, but also outside of my control. Long story short, I got a huge thorn stuck in my foot! . Didn't let it stop me though. Finished the rest of the 20-some-hour race bloodied, bandaged and happier every step closer to the finish line! . Moral of the story reminded me that as humans we all fail. It's simply part of the experience. You can either let it fester and spoil your mind, or push on further despite the odds. If you're not failing at some point, you're probably not pushing yourself hard enough. Important things to remember for #runners but also anyone who is struggling. Remember it's only temporary and the only thing we can change is the future! ✨ . #rootsmvmt #youraustinphysio #barefoottribe #keepaustinrunning #austinrunners #barefootwalking #runningrehab #runatx #latitudept #borntorun #minimalist #barefoot #physicalfitness #atx #austin #movementculture #rewildyourself #biohacking #jointmobility #spinehealth #freethefoot #barefootisbetter (at Latitude PT) https://www.instagram.com/p/B7ZjkXVlX7C/?igshid=181p02znr4az2

I'm curious, what's your #morningroutine ? Mine consists of fetch with @paco.de.tico walking barefoot on those rocks, a little mobilty work and some quick strength training. Just enough to set my day in #motion .

We'll be at it again Thurs April 25th at 6 pm @wholeearthprov in S Austin! Looking forward to educating the public about the advantages of barefoot shoes over conventional shoes, considerations for making the transition, and how to strengthen your feet. Mark your calendars! . #rootsmvmt #youraustinphysio #barefoottribe #keepaustinrunning #austinrunners #barefootwalking #runningrehab #runatx #latitudept #borntorun #minimalist #barefoot #physicalfitness #atx #austin #getpt1st #movementculture #rewildyourself #biohacking #jointmobility #spinehealth #themissinglink #freethefoot #preventativehealth #movementismedicine #justplay #barefootisbetter (at Austin, Texas) https://www.instagram.com/p/BwLFAt_FOYQ/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=zjjuzjja657

My favorite gym: nature. Movement is the foundation of overall health and well-being. Have you gotten enough nutritious movement today? I love exercising outdoors because it reminds me how little equipment we need to take care of our bodies. Children (and puppies) don't need to be told to move and play, they just do! #rootsmvmt . Pro tip: instead of hurrying straight into rush hour traffic, hang back. Find a place inside or outside of the office or explore a nearby park and get a quick sweat going. Austin has so many wonderful parks! . Also, as you can see, Tico is still trying to figure out frisbees! . #youraustinphysio #barefoottribe #keepaustinrunning #austinrunners #barefootwalking #runningrehab #runatx #latitudept #borntorun #minimalist #barefoot #physicalfitness #atx #austin #getpt1st #movementculture #rewildyourself #biohacking #jointmobility #spinehealth #themissinglink #freethefoot #preventativehealth #movementismedicine #justplay #barefootisbetter (at Garrison Park, Austin) https://www.instagram.com/p/BwGThi5lgzI/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=14cvmiq5f4ykr

I couldn't agree more! The work that Travell and Simons did back in the 70's was invaluable, and practitioners across multiple disciplines now routinely use their findings to treat myofascial pain throughout the body. But I think some have missed an important point. There is a concept that describes how key trigger points are responsible for activating satellite trigger points. If you're not familiar with trigger points, in short, they are taut bands within muscles that can potentially refer pain to other parts of the body. When studying for my dry needling certification I always wondered, "so where is the mothership?" If one trigger point is created by another, where does it all stem from? I'm not interested in chasing pain. I'm compelled to get to the root of the problem. Ladies and gents, it starts from the bottom up! . When a key trigger point is reduced, its satellite trigger points consequently are reduced. Witnessing this in action is humbling. . Whether you want to perform better, or you just want to relieve pain throughout the body, we can help. Schedule a complimentary phone consultation today, and don't miss out on our upcoming foot health workshops! . #rootsmvmt #youraustinphysio #barefoottribe #keepaustinrunning #austinrunners #barefootwalking #runningrehab #runatx #latitudept #borntorun #minimalist #barefoot #physicalfitness #atx #austin #getpt1st #movementculture #rewildyourself #biohacking #jointmobility #spinehealth #themissinglink #freethefoot #preventativehealth #movementismedicine #justplay #barefootisbetter (at Austin, Texas) https://www.instagram.com/p/BvT58K3FWZp/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1cix29fob3c51

Spring is here, but it can still be a little chilly in the early morning! Why do I bother wearing huarache sandals even when it's cold? Because they're the best shoes EVER! This is NOT an overstatement. This design has survived the test of time through countless generations, is suitable for any terrain (given the appropriate thickness or awareness), and most importantly it allows your foot to work naturally. Unfortunately the same cannot be said for 99% shoes sold in the market. Despite performance-improving, injury-preventing "this" and "that," if it's not foot-shaped, flat and flexible, it's not doing your body good. For my full take on why huarache sandals are the best shoes check out the blog post at latitudept.com/blog . And please, chime in. What are your favorite shoes and why? What are your questions about barefoot shoes or going barefoot? What's the hold up? Why should your feet wait ANY longer?
