ELITE ATHLETE BODYWORK • CHARLOTTE, NC
Most sprinters retire by 30. I kept Justin Gatlin winning at 37.
Recurring injuries. Performance plateaus. A body that won't keep up with your training. The problem isn't effort. It's a movement pattern that's breaking you down — and nobody has found it yet.

THE PROBLEM
You're training harder than ever. Your body is falling behind.
You've put in the work. The conditioning, the lifting, the recovery protocols. But something isn't holding up. The same injury keeps coming back. The explosiveness isn't where it was. Your body feels like it's working against you instead of with you.
And the frustrating part — you're doing everything your team tells you to do. The strength work, the PT, the stretching. You feel better for a while. Then it returns.
That's because nobody has identified what's actually causing the breakdown.
WHAT YOU’VE TRIED
Strength training builds on top of the pattern. It doesn't fix it.
Your strength coach is doing their job — making you stronger. But if the underlying movement pattern is dysfunctional, you're building strength on top of dysfunction. You get stronger and more broken at the same time.
Physical therapy addresses the injury. But the pattern that caused the injury is still there. You rehab, return to play, and the cycle starts again.
Massage and recovery work manage the symptoms. They help you feel better between sessions. But they don't change the pattern that's producing the symptoms in the first place.
None of these are wrong. They're just incomplete. The missing piece is identifying and correcting the movement pattern that's driving the breakdown.
THE APPROACH
I find the pattern, fix it, and prove it changed.
Your body has a movement pattern that's limiting your performance and causing the breakdown. It shows up as injury, plateau, or loss of speed — but those are symptoms. The pattern is the cause.
I use QuantMove 3D scanning to measure your movement in three-dimensional space. Not a subjective assessment. Not a screen you pass or fail. Objective data that shows exactly what's happening and why.
Then we correct it. And we re-test to prove it changed.
Identify
QuantMove 3D scan maps your movement and identifies the exact pattern causing the breakdown.
Correct
Targeted pattern correction. Not strengthening around the problem — fixing it at the source.
Prove
Re-testing with QuantMove shows objective proof the pattern has changed. Data, not guesswork.
CASE STUDY
Justin Gatlin: World Champion at 35 and 37.
Most sprinters retire by 30. The forces on the body at elite speed are brutal, and the accumulated damage catches up. Justin Gatlin was supposed to be done.
Instead, he won World Championship gold at 35 in 2017 and again at 37 in 2019. Not by training harder — by fixing the patterns that were breaking him down before they ended his career.
The difference wasn't more training. It was identifying and correcting the patterns that were accumulating damage faster than his body could recover.
That's the same work I do in Charlotte. Different sport, same principle. Your body has patterns that are limiting your performance and shortening your career. I find them and fix them.

Football
NFL, college, high school. Speed and power athletes whose body takes more punishment than any other sport.
Basketball
Explosiveness, change of direction, and injury prevention. The patterns that keep you on the court.
Combat Sports
MMA, boxing, wrestling. Athletes who need their body to move freely under extreme physical demand.
Endurance

Still competing in life after sport. The patterns from your career don't retire when you do.
Your career doesn't have to end because your body gives out first.
The athletes I work with aren't ready to accept that their best performance is behind them. If that's you — let's find what's breaking down and fix it before it takes you out of the game.
