Matt was an experienced gym-goer and who had been struggling with constant shoulder pain for 48 months.
Despite seeing multiple physical therapists and even undergoing cortisone injections, he couldn’t make progress.
The impact?
- His workouts became painful, and daily activities—like putting away dishes or sleeping—were uncomfortable.
- Frustrated and losing motivation, Matt began to question if he could ever get back to lifting without pain.
What Was Holding Him Back?
Matt’s injury limited him in overhead and pressing movements, and his posture worsened over time. He tried multiple rehab solutions… but they either didn’t work or provided only temporary relief.
His Key Mistakes:
- Generic programs that didn’t adapt to his specific pain and limitations.
- A lack of hands-on support to adjust exercises in real-time when needed.
- Treatments that left him feeling like surgery might be his only option.
How we solved it
Matt joined my program looking for a different approach—one that would give him real progress without wasting more time or money.
Here’s what made the difference:
- Tailored Programming: I designed a specific plan focused on reducing shoulder pain while building strength.
- Adaptive Coaching: Each week, we assessed his progress and adjusted exercises. If a movement caused discomfort, I modified it or replaced it entirely.
- Support on Demand: Matt had full access to me via Telegram and Zoom for any questions or feedback—ensuring he never felt stuck or unsupported.
The result?
Within 4 weeks, Matt experienced his first pain-free workout in years. A few months later, he was bench pressing 80kg—completely pain-free.
The Results: A life-changing transformation
- Pain-Free Workouts: Matt can now lift without any shoulder discomfort.
- Improved Confidence: For the first time in 4 years, he feels optimistic about his shoulder health.
- Back to Progress: Matt’s regained his motivation and is now working towards being stronger than ever.
Why Matt chose this program over others
After trying physical therapy and other methods that fell short, Matt wanted something more advanced. He found me on Twitter, drawn to my expertise and reputation for getting results.
Here’s what he had to say about the experience:
The program and depth of support was great with Ollie. Being able to ask questions over telegram or get face to face support on zoom anytime I needed it.
4 weeks in, and my workouts were completely pain free. Months later and I’m benching 80kg without any issues. Ollie’s program has been a massive positive impact on my life.
My shoulder is in the least amount of pain since I injured, and for the first time in 4 years I am optimistic about my shoulder.
