Athletes have a team of people to prevent injury and to rehab them when they do get injured. Who do musicians have? We don't have a team of people and resources can be confusing to find. We're going to be the one stop shop for all your wellness needs! I've dropped my vision below and my goal is to have it open by the end of the year!

From Caroline on what this episode is about:
Angela has spent the last 13+ years helping musicians use strength training to reduce pain and injury risk, play with greater ease and live better lives.
I love her musician-specific approach to training and I admire that she’s in the trenches at conferences, seminars and workshops with the musicians who really need this information.
We discuss many things in this episode including:
💪🏼Angela’s personal experiences with flute and exercise injuries
💪🏼Why building strength makes you a more resilient musician and human
💪🏼Whether or not muscle imbalances in musicians are a bad thing
💪🏼The most common pain/dysfunction areas she sees in her musician clients and how she helps address them
💪🏼Why musicians need to be training their entire body, not just their arms
💪🏼How to get started with strength training even if you feel out of place at the gym
🎙️Find the episode by searching “Building Stronger Creatives” on your favorite podcast platform, or click the link in my bio.

Start with a really light band, it's harder than it looks and it's easy to compensate by letting your shoulder move (watch video for tips
on how NOT to do that)
Incorporate this into your backstage warmup or next workout warmup, do 1-2 sets of 10-15 SLOWLY, add in some banded external and internal rotations, and maybe some serratus wall slides and you are warmed up, activated, balanced and ready to rock the stage!

*We were shut down for so long because of the pandemic, but now that things are open again, I'm not sure I can handle the workload, I don't want to get injured.
*I wasn't sure what to do when my fingers started to go numb so I quit playing but when I started again, it came right back and hasn't gone away.
*There weren't enough gigs before and there are less now, I don't know what I'm going to do to make money…
*I really want to get back in the gym but I don't know what to do…
I've heard all of these…
The difference is, now there is something you CAN do about. Instead of the typical answers of
*just rest
*stop playing
*stretch
If you're tired of feeling
Clueless
Hopeless
Frustrated
In pain or
Confused
Then my Job Security Program may be right for you.(does any of this sound familiar?)
