We work out of Training Day Fitness, a well-equipped sports performance facility in the north Twin Cities metro area.
It has a rehab area, and both a college-style weight room and a boot camp-style weight room.
The building is easy for people with disabilities to get to, and people of all ages and abilities can get the rehab exercises they need to get better.
In the gym space, we may have a competitive athlete getting back to jumping and plyometrics, or we may be retraining someone's walking gait after a spinal cord injury or stroke.
At the Brooklyn Park facility, we often see clients from many of the north suburbs and central Minnesota cities, such as:
We find the neurological problems and retrain the communication to and from your "inhibited" areas to start your recovery. This lets your nervous system deal with stress without making you move in unproductive ways.
Once your nervous system and tissues are communicating with better 'bandwidth', we work to re-establish the optimal biomechanical patterns and build strength in these patterns through a full range of motion.
Now that you've established and reinforced your ability to use the right muscles for the right jobs, you'll need more strength, conditioning, and awareness to resume the less predictable and more challenging activities in life.

I send everyone with stubborn aches and pains to Tyler. He’s incredibly experienced, skilled, and able to communicate what’s wrong in simple language. More importantly it works incredibly fast and consistently. 10/10 recommend for anyone with aches, pains, and a desire to get back to their favorite activities asap
Had an assessment with Tyler and was very happy with the results. He found the problem areas quickly and after doing some exercises with his knowledge and technology, immediate improvement was made with flexibility.

Often with the neurological soft tissue therapy process, we can see some results immediately within the first evaluation treatment. Normally, once someone engages in the therapy program, they are seeing an upward trend that sees them getting significant relief from their pain within the first four sessions.
They typically experience this within one to two weeks. So usually someone's symptoms are greatly reduced unless they have an extremely acute injury or a significant amount of physical damage.
Several factors can contribute to how quickly someone sees results. These include how well do they follow through on recommendations given for things like posture, or other recovery factors like nutrition, sleep, stress, etc. Even though each person is different, there are predictable levels of progress that one would hope to see.
On rare occasion, if we are not seeing normal levels of progress, we will communicate to the client to let them know these levels of progress are less than we are expecting. Although this is infrequent, we are completely the advocates for the best interest of the client. If there is something unforeseen, or if there is more structural damage than someone was aware of, we may, based on the progress or lack thereof, be able to recommend someone with a great deal of confidence to the right move for what they need to recover to the best level they are capable of.
This can differ from person to person. But we typically encourage you to go through at least two to three phases of therapy. The first phase is necessary for absolutely all clients and that is locating and re educating the sources of their issue. Typically, this takes about four sessions to work someone through to the necessary levels.
The second phase typically we are doing a lot of teaching on top of the rehabilitative strength work. So, if someone understands the concept of muscle memory (repeated use of a movement pattern creating neurological adaptation to continue that pattern more easily) they can understand why it is necessary to be consistent with the therapy process.
If you wanted to master the golf swing, you wouldn’t golf once a month or even once a week. You would want to do some level of practice frequently. Typically, we like to work with clients at minimum two times per week during their process to ensure that the muscle memory and movement patterns are consistently corrected and reinforced.
For someone to keep their results long term, there needs to be a combination of the neurological adaptations happening between the brain and the specific areas, as well as an awareness of how can that person change their movement and positioning and posture to allow them to keep their results long term.
This can differ for all people, but typically, we are confident of getting someone a lasting result within the first two to three phases of treatment. Usually we are not seeing someone again for the same issue. Nearly all of our clients develop the strength and learn enough about how to maintain their results during the process that they can keep them for lifelong success.
