Learn how to avoid injury and improve sports performance.

Want to improve your running?  Runners put themselves through repetitive pounding that transmit forces through every joint, muscle and tendon in the body at 3-5x body weight with every stride. BreakThrough’s Sports Performance programs for the recreational as well as highly competitive runners will improve your flexibility, strength, endurance and overall understanding of what will be required for you to progress to your desired level of running with increased enjoyment.

Studies show an incidence from 2.5-12.1 injuries per 1000 hours of running.  Most of these running injuries and pain complaints seem to be due to a combination of overuse, misuse, lack of variety in the training program and choice of footwear for each individual. Let us help you improve your running.

We take a comprehensive approach and often combine video analysis to improve your movement patterns and allow you to better understand the cause for various issues. We ask the right questions and observe you so that we can help support a steady improvement in your running enjoyment with minimal change. Everyone is different so there is not a “one shoe fits all” approach.  Our running experts will take all factors in consideration as they help you achieve your goals.  It is obviously our goal to help you run at your very best and gain more enjoyment from running, but more importantly we enable you to understand the reason(s) for your new-found success and things you need to keep working at to keep hitting your PRs!

With our Running Sports Performance program it’s as easy as 1-2-3:
1) We will first learn about you, your current status and goals for the future.
2) We will then perform a thorough evaluation to assess movement patterns, strength, flexibility and agility.
3) We will explain our findings and design a mutually agreeable program which enables you to achieve your goals.

What’s the Buzz?

My daughter developed a stress fracture due to over-training and lack of proper guidance. She had to sit out her sophomore season and we were afraid her running career would be over. Her self-confidence was way down and we had serious concerns, but thanks to BreakThrough she is “back on track” and continuously improving her times as well as enjoyment for cross country. Thank you!

My shin splints were killing me and I had to pull out of my last race. Thanks to Prina helped me avoid needing a boot and really being on the sidelines. I am now increasing my mileage and am so excited to have the support of your Sports Performance Program!

I PR’ed this weekend and I cannot thank Irina enough for all the hard work and dedication she put in to help me accomplish my goal!!
