In Episode 9 of the podcast, host Garrett Saulpeter engages in an inspiring discussion about the transformative effects of the New Fit technology in both rehabilitation and performance training. The episode features two compelling case studies that illustrate the device's impact on patients.
The first story highlights a dedicated client who, after overcoming hip pain through physical therapy, aimed to achieve her lifelong goal of performing a pull-up. Despite her strength and activity level, she struggled with this specific challenge. Through an eight-session pull-up protocol using New Fit, the focus shifted from merely adding muscle mass to enhancing neuromuscular activation. Within a month and a half, she successfully completed her first pull-up, demonstrating how skill development and proper muscle recruitment can lead to significant progress.
The second case centers around an 80-year-old man who suffered severe nerve damage from shingles. He arrived at the clinic reliant on a walker and unable to walk independently. An EMG study revealed significant nerve impairment, but with the aid of New Fit technology, targeted rehabilitation focused on key muscle groups. After ten months of treatment, a follow-up EMG showed improvement, restoring normal muscle recruitment patterns. Functionally, the man transitioned to independent walking and now trains three times a week, achieving performance levels typical of much younger individuals.
Throughout the episode, the discussion emphasizes the importance of personalized care, advanced technology, and the continuum from rehabilitation to performance enhancement. Listeners are inspired to adopt innovative approaches in their practices, recognizing the profound potential for patient growth and success through such integrations.
