Square1 The SQUARE 1 System™ looks at the body totally differently than the conventionalists do.

Conventionalists tend to get caught up in symptoms but the SQUARE 1 System™ gets to the source of why you have pain, tightness, and weakness. SQUARE 1 (formerly called RESET) was developed by Shawn Sherman who holds a degree in Exercise and Sport Science from Penn State University. He has consulted with hundreds of elite athletes from many organizations including: Olympians - US, Canada and Russia; Professionals - Chicago Cubs, White Sox, Blackhawks, Bears, Bulls and Red Stars; Collegians - the Minnesota University Football, Northern Illinois University Football, Valparaiso University Basketball, Oakland University Basketball and the Missouri State University Basketball programs.

Ernest didn’t need a new degree. He didn’t need a machine. He didn’t need to create a whole rehab program.

He needed to run SQUARE 1.

A track athlete at 8 out of 10 pain. Family drove over two hours to see him. He got her out of pain and her function back in 1 session.

Then mom. Mysterious pain. Doctors spinning. Same SQUARE 1 framework. Pain gone in less than a minute.

No student loans to repay. No expensive equipment to buy. No painful electrical interventions.

Knowledge. Skill. A system built on essentials.

People will travel for someone who can actually change the pattern.

This is what being irreplaceable looks like.

Essentials ignite everything. Rewiring compensation since 2008.

I don’t only run workshops.

I’m still in the trenches. Still sharpening the axe. Still producing results for the people tissue-only approaches never quite finished.

If trad rehab hasn’t gotten it done - back pain, plantar fasciitis, shoulder impingement, sciatica, the aftermath of concussion or stroke - the pattern is usually still living in the nervous system.

Stretching the tissue again doesn’t rewrite compensation.

SQUARE 1 is sensory-first. Find what the body is missing. Restore the signal. Let the compensation drop.

I’m taking new 1:1 clients in Chicagoland (nextstep_physicaltherapy , Countryside, IL) on Mondays and Tuesdays.

Message to book.

Principles over personalities and profits. Essentials ignite everything. Rewiring compensation since 2008.

When you’re ready to walk a different path… and start caring more about results and real-life ROI than titles… SQUARE 1 is ready for you.

No debt to repay. No expensive equipment to buy. A painless intervention that stands on outcomes, not a license on the wall.

This is not a promise that people will be waiting at your door tomorrow.

It is a sensory-first way of working.

When the work is good, people talk. That is how this grows.

Level 1 is enough to start. The rest is practice after the workshop.

If that is the path you actually want, come learn it.

Everyone has gaps in sensory input 👁️‍🗨️ We noticed a unique eye movement in one of my athletes and corrected it using Square1 🙌

Is eye tracking important for athletes? Absolutely yes! 👀⚡

Did you catch the same song playing in the background? 🎶 We achieved this fix in under a minute! 🤯

Remember: Our physiology follows our neurology 🧠🤝💪

This video is a repost from who is a SQUARE 1 pro with ~8 months experience running the system. The following are his words:

“Here are some results using Square1 over the last week. You see range of motion improving, but why? If we aren’t even moving the shoulder, how are you getting improvements?

Because the shoulder, hip, knee, ankle, spine, pelvis, any joint in your body isn’t necessarily tight because the tissue itself is the problem. Rarely ever is fascia bound up, muscle tonus, or a joint “blocked” because that tissue itself is responsible. More than likely, it is the BRAIN trying to PROTECT that joint for whatever reason.

So you foam roll, stretch, joint move, rub, do whatever the industry tells you to do, and your body just reverts back to its old ways because you DIDN’T FIX THE PROBLEM. You tried to go after the symptoms, not the cause. And because of that, you got suboptimal results.

Square1 has created significant changes in 100% of the people I’ve tested in the past week (12 people). Those changes are in pain, range of motion, balance, and eye tracking ability. At least one of those things improved in the time I was given. 1 session ranging from 45 min to 1 hr on each person.

But the funny thing is, we weren’t trying to improve anything in particular. Square 1 has the framework, the practitioner uses it however they see fit, and whatever happens is going to happen. People don’t like having uncertainty in their outcomes. But you know what is worse than uncertainty? No results. Getting no results will keep you up at night if you care about what you do.

When you use Square1 correctly, something will always happen. We all compensate, that’s the way we were built. Built to survive no matter what. But when you see positive changes last for months on end, that is evidence that if nothing else, you are getting wildly close to the root cause of neuromuscular compensation.

Maybe, if enough people say something is worth a try, you’ll give it a try. The choice is yours. After testing over 100 people these past few months, I feel like more professionals need to have this on their radar…”

"Unlocking Potential: SQUARE 1 Level 2 Workshop Insights"

At the SQUARE 1 Level 2 Workshop, you have a choice:

You can follow the crowd, viewing sub-optimal movement expressions as tissue issues, and keep yourself busy for weeks with stretching, mobilizing, and massaging those 'misbehaving' muscles—occasionally achieving success stories.

OR…

You can be a trailblazer by learning the SQUARE 1 framework. Start interviewing the nervous system to identify and address the true drivers of compensation, consistently producing outstanding, lasting outcomes.

Become an IRREPLACEABLE pro! 💪✨ "

Grateful for the amazing connections and opportunities with SQUARE 1! 🙌✨

Big thanks to ’s friend from for making this happen!

Had the pleasure of working with the talented and her lovely mom, Miquel Brown. After a gym mishap, Sinitta’s been dealing with a left shoulder impingement. While we didn’t hit a huge breakthrough on the first session, her mobility improved and her fear of moving into deeper ranges has dropped significantly! 💪🦾

Can’t wait to be back in London to keep the progress going! 🔜🇬🇧

The future of human performance is HERE! 🚀
