"Caroline" came to see me four months before her first triathlon. She had a great coach, was starting with walk run intervals, and was trying to sleep and eat well for her recovery. But her running pain just wouldn't go away and she was getting frustrated so she stopped altogether.

Her running form looked pretty good. She was landing slightly out in front but that was easy to adjust. The discovery came when we did strength testing.

Her quads told an interesting story. One side could generate 68 pounds of force, but her painful side, which was actually her dominant leg, could only manage 52 pounds. That's a 24% difference, and both numbers were below what we'd expect for someone her age and activity level.

We added one simple squat exercise she could do at home twice a week (I gave her a couple options). In three weeks, her weaker side jumped from 52 to 70 pounds of force. A 34% increase. Her stronger side improved too. This sort of increase is common is people who are new to strength training.

This wasn't the only thing we worked on. We worked with her coach on training adjustments, pacing changes, and pain management strategies. But without measuring her strength, we might have missed what she needed most.

πŸ€” Have you ever wondered what your quad strength is?
