Client of the Month Spotlight: Sarah Fazal 💪🎉

Sarah has only been training with us for 2.5 months, but her consistency and mindset have already made a big impact.

When she first came to ADAPT, she was dealing with fibromyalgia and struggling to find a workout routine that didn’t leave her feeling worse after. Her goal was simple but powerful: build a consistent strength training routine she could actually stick with.

Fast forward to today and Sarah is training 3 times a week and getting stronger with every session. The progress isn’t just physical, it’s confidence, routine, and showing up for herself even on the tough days.

Her advice says it best: “Just show up. The trainers here make everything personalized to your body and what you need.”

That’s what ADAPT is all about. Meeting you where you are, and helping you build from there. We’re so proud of you, Sarah 👏🔥

Someone recently came to us and said, “I guess I just can’t deadlift anymore because it hurts.” 😩

Remember, pain during a deadlift (or any part of your workout routine) is not something you should just accept. More often than not, there’s a reason it’s happening, and it’s usually something we can address.

Three common mistakes we see:

✅ Letting the bar drift away from the body, which puts extra stress on the low back.

✅ Rounding the back too much, making it harder for your spine to stay stable during the lift.

✅ Starting the movement by raising the hips too quickly, causing the low back to do most of the work instead of sharing the load with the hips and legs.

The goal is to figure out why they hurt and fix the problem.

Pain is feedback. It’s your body telling you something needs attention.

At ADAPT, we help people move better, get stronger, and get back to doing the things they enjoy without unnecessary pain.

Don’t give up on the exercise. Let’s figure out what’s really going on. 💪

3 Mindset Tools for Athletes ⬇️

Physical training gets you ready… but mental preparation is what separates good athletes from great ones.

Here are 3 simple mindset strategies athletes can use before any game or competition:

1️⃣ Control What You Can Control
Focus on effort, attitude, and preparation — not the score, refs, or opponents. To make it easier: try the “3-2-1 Reset”:

3 – Name 3 things you can control (effort, focus, attitude)

2 – Notice 2 things in your environment (sounds, feel of your gear)

1 – Take 1 deep, intentional breath, letting go of worries
This quick mindfulness exercise anchors you in the present and reduces pre-game anxiety.

2️⃣ Visualize Success (Before It Happens)
Spend 2–3 minutes picturing yourself executing skills successfully — making the play, staying calm under pressure, and competing confidently. Your brain practices performance even before the game starts.

3️⃣ Create a Pre-Game Reset Routine
Have a consistent routine: music, breathing, mobility, or positive self-talk. Familiar routines tell your brain, “I’ve been here before — I’m ready.”

Remember: Confidence isn’t something you wait to feel — it’s something you build through preparation, practice and mindset.

Girl Power 💥 💪

Female athletes don’t strength train to ‘bulk up.’

They train to:

• Improve speed and power
• Prevent injury
• Get stronger
• Perform better

Confidence is just a side effect. 👏

Pain isn’t pushing through 🙄

A good should feel strong and controlled—not painful.

Start with your feet: keep all 3 points of contact (big toe, little toe, heel). Don’t shift your weight or “dump” into the heels—stay fully grounded through the whole foot.

As you descend, keep your knees tracking out in line with your toes. Control the lowering instead of dropping into the bottom.

If squats still hurt, don’t push through it. Swap in variations like box squats, split squats, or goblet squats to build strength in a safer range first.

Pain during exercise is not “normal.” It’s feedback. 🚨

At ADAPT, we don’t ignore that signal—we use it to train smarter, get stronger, and keep your body working for you, not against you.

Those poor knees 😭

Stop letting your knees take the hit! 💥

If your squats feel uncomfortable in your knees, it might be because your hips aren’t doing their job. Too often, people bend the knees first and let them take all the stress. 😩

✅ Fix it: Load your hips before bending your knees.

If you are doing any of these red flags during your workout, our team can help you avoid injury and get stronger 👏

“Just take it easy”

As you age, that advice might actually be holding you back from being active, independent, and pain-free. At ADAPT, we don’t believe in slowing down just because you’re getting older. We believe in building strength, confidence, and resilience for the long run.

We don’t graduate clients out of care. We help them transition into lifelong, confident training that supports how they want to live.

Stronger with time. Not limited by it. Here’s more about our process...
