Summer in Portland is made for movement—hiking trails, bike rides, city runs, pickleball, and all those ambitious garden projects. But here’s the truth: if your muscles aren’t ready, your body will let you know… usually with a pulled hamstring, cranky knee, or stiff lower back that begs for a break just when the sun finally comes out.
Enter strength training: your best defense against injuries.
At Portland Personal Training, we’re passionate about helping people build strong, resilient bodies—especially during the busy summer months. Whether you’re a weekend warrior, a desk-bound overachiever, or someone who just wants to feel better walking up stairs, strength training is the key to moving well and avoiding those frustrating summer setbacks.
Why Strength Training Prevents Injuries:
-
It builds muscle to support joints. Stronger muscles mean more stability, which reduces stress on knees, hips, shoulders, and your spine.
-
It improves balance and coordination. Especially important as we age or take on new outdoor activities.
-
It corrects imbalances. Many injuries stem from overusing some muscles and underusing others. Strength training brings your body back into alignment.
-
It increases mobility and flexibility. Lifting weights (properly!) can actually help you move more freely and prevent strains.
