Have You Been Told That Strength Training Will…

As someone who has been an injured runner in the past, I truly understand how frustrating it can be to have an injury derail your training, your daily routine, or your big race.

If you’re injured, you can try some stuff here or there, or you can choose to overcome it. I promise that if you choose to overcome it, you will be rewarded. If you try an alternative, you might do all right, but down the road, the issue might come back or some other related injury will arise; and then your running is suffering again. Your training is suffering again. Which do you want?

That’s what this is all about.

“This Isn’t Just Physical Therapy To Run Pain-Free Again, We’re Trying To Transform You Into A Strong, Resilient, Well-Informed Runner, Ultimately Adding Value To Your Life Because Of What Running Really Means To You.”​

I’m here to help you get your running life back.

What Other People Just Like You Are Saying About Up And Running Physical Therapy In Fort Collins, CO...

Jordan W.

AJ is a great PT to work with–and my wife is Physical Therapist as well, so I know a couple things I had an issue with my foot/calf, and AJ quickly diagnosed the issue. He offered helpful exercises that I could do while maintaining my training plan for a trail ultramarathon. It’s great to address the root problem rather than just masking the symptoms. I have no doubt I will utilize his services again, specifically with strength training, dry needling, and/or run coaching. (Hopefully no more injuries for awhile though!) If you are a runner or just an active/adventurous person, I highly recommend Up and Running Physical Therapy.”

“I work with AJ at Up and Running as my strength coach. I’ve worked with AJ for a short time and it’s been incredible. His knowledge, energy and personality have made my strength training program a completely different experience in the best way possible. He’s not just a coach, but a friend and someone who truly cares! I would highly recommend AJ for a strength and/or running coach! You rock AJ!“
