UpRight Movement helps change lives for the better through education and a NatURe inspired Ecosystem process informed by immutable first principles, environmental evolutionary adaptedness, neurodevelopment, biology, and Newtonian Physics; which optimizes locomotion, resilience, and longevity.<\/p>\n
At UpRight Movement, we are dedicated to providing post-rehab, injury<\/a> reduction, and performance<\/a> training<\/a> for people who live life to the fullest. Major focus is placed on decreasing injury risk and enhancing performance of those in the game of life and other athletes in sports.<\/p>\nUpRight Movement uses a Biomimicry approach, which is essentially imitating NatURe to solve problems; the aspects of NatURe we\u2019re guided by are: environmental evolutionary adaptedness, neurodevelopment, biology, and Newtonian Physics. We believe these are the non-biased constructs and confines within which the human body operates. UpRight Movement is influenced by the proactive sports healthcare, wellness, and sports performance fields, bringing a seamlessly integrated approach that bridges the gap between rehabilitation and performance.<\/p>\n
<\/h3>\nWhy UpRight Movement?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\nAn Individual\u2019s Abilities + Expected Movement Demands = Proper Movement Based Planning<\/strong>
\n PROPER MOVEMENT RECLAIMS FUNCTION, FORM FOLLOWS FUNCTION and FUNCTION OFTEN CORRECTS PAIN<\/strong><\/h4>\n<\/blockquote>\nUpRight Movement values an intelligent systematic approach of checks and balances qualifying movements for precision and clean movement mechanics. There are three clearances that we adhere to prior to advancing you: Pain, Quality and Quantity.<\/p>\n
<\/h3>\nWhat makes UpRight Movement so different and successful?<\/strong><\/h3>\nUpRight Movement takes a holistic approach, looking at the beginning, middle, and end points of movement. We consider a hierarchy of movement that is built upon the foundation of mobility (flexibility + strength)<\/a> and stability (reflexive resistance to change, e.g., in walking gravity attempts to pull us down while we resist and stay upright). This foundation involves musculature that is functionally more postural in nature with finer motor control, and from which gross muscles and movements operate. When these essentials are in place they provide efficient support to higher demand activities, minimizing over compensation of movement and reducing injury potential. Expected outcome: improved results. UpRight Movement also considers the other remaining hours within the day, and the other variables and stressors that may take away from your results. It is vital you consider recovery just as important as training, for they are interdependent. Regeneration:<\/a> It is important to understand that everything in the system will break you down and this is the time when we educate and execute regeneration strategies to ensure optimal performance during future training sessions.<\/p>\nSeamlessly integrated throughout the entire training continuum is the principle of:<\/p>\n
HEALTHY STRESS + REST = RESILIENCE<\/strong><\/h2>\nWhat does UpRight Movement not do?<\/strong><\/h3>\nUpRight Movement does not fix people. UpRight Movement takes a big picture view in the beginning with intake. Our formula: An Individual\u2019s Abilities + Expected Movement Demands = Proper Movement Based Planning. Strategies are recommended to help address abilities and demands. It is paramount we work these strategies, so that they work for us. Training for real, sustainable results is a process requiring consistency over time. Usually the longer and greater an imbalance has been established the greater our need for consistency. UpRight Movement DOES have the knowledge, the tools, and the dedication to support you.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div> \n\t\t<\/div> \n\t\t<\/div>

\nAn Individual\u2019s Abilities + Expected Movement Demands = Proper Movement Based Planning<\/strong>
\n PROPER MOVEMENT RECLAIMS FUNCTION, FORM FOLLOWS FUNCTION and FUNCTION OFTEN CORRECTS PAIN<\/strong><\/h4>\n<\/blockquote>\nUpRight Movement values an intelligent systematic approach of checks and balances qualifying movements for precision and clean movement mechanics. There are three clearances that we adhere to prior to advancing you: Pain, Quality and Quantity.<\/p>\n
<\/h3>\n
What makes UpRight Movement so different and successful?<\/strong><\/h3>\n
UpRight Movement takes a holistic approach, looking at the beginning, middle, and end points of movement. We consider a hierarchy of movement that is built upon the foundation of mobility (flexibility + strength)<\/a> and stability (reflexive resistance to change, e.g., in walking gravity attempts to pull us down while we resist and stay upright). This foundation involves musculature that is functionally more postural in nature with finer motor control, and from which gross muscles and movements operate. When these essentials are in place they provide efficient support to higher demand activities, minimizing over compensation of movement and reducing injury potential. Expected outcome: improved results. UpRight Movement also considers the other remaining hours within the day, and the other variables and stressors that may take away from your results. It is vital you consider recovery just as important as training, for they are interdependent. Regeneration:<\/a> It is important to understand that everything in the system will break you down and this is the time when we educate and execute regeneration strategies to ensure optimal performance during future training sessions.<\/p>\n
Seamlessly integrated throughout the entire training continuum is the principle of:<\/p>\n
HEALTHY STRESS + REST = RESILIENCE<\/strong><\/h2>\n
What does UpRight Movement not do?<\/strong><\/h3>\n
UpRight Movement does not fix people. UpRight Movement takes a big picture view in the beginning with intake. Our formula: An Individual\u2019s Abilities + Expected Movement Demands = Proper Movement Based Planning. Strategies are recommended to help address abilities and demands. It is paramount we work these strategies, so that they work for us. Training for real, sustainable results is a process requiring consistency over time. Usually the longer and greater an imbalance has been established the greater our need for consistency. UpRight Movement DOES have the knowledge, the tools, and the dedication to support you.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div> \n\t\t<\/div> \n\t\t<\/div>
