Conni, a Portugal based business owner, active gym-goer and yoga enthusiast, was stuck.
After fracturing her wrist and wearing a cast, she developed a frozen shoulder that severely impacted her ability to live pain-free and stay active.
The problem
Conni’s pain wasn’t just about missing workouts.
It was life-limiting.
She couldn’t:
- Put on a sweater without pain
- Use the steering wheel comfortably
- Lift her arm overhead or behind her back
She tried everything:
- Physical therapy — no lasting improvements
- Massage and osteo — temporary relief
- Home exercises — but her pain only worsened
Conni felt hopeless, wondering if she’d ever return to doing yoga or surfing pain-free again.
☝️A tough situation right?
Imagine it… shoulder pain destroys your life, and no matter what you try, nothing seems to work (maybe you’re in this situation…)
But then? I got an email from her.
The Turning Point
4 months after that first inquiry email, here’s where she’s at:
The pain was intense and severely limited my day to day life. I had to completely stop doing upper body workouts and it kept me from doing yoga. I was incredibly frustrated.
I made immense progress during the program. My range of motion has increased substantially. I can go about my day to day life without any limitations or pain. I’m now able to train my upper body and do large movements like deadlifts without any issues.
I really valued the changing customised workouts, and the level of support was great too.
Definitely work with Ollie - he's the best, kindest and most competent coach out there. I’m so happy I found him and so grateful to have been able to work with him.
“I made immense progress”
“My ROM has increased a lot”
”I can go about life without pain”
”I’m now able to train my upper body”
How incredible is that?
She started off in debilitating pain, severely limited in her daily life, and had to completely stop training her upper body…
Then a couple weeks in, this happened:
After that point:
She started progressing QUICK.
And towards the end of the program? She was doing workouts like this (seriously, this is actually one of her workouts!):
The Process
How did Conni achieve this?
We customized a rehab program to exactly fit Conni’s situation. This wasn’t a one-size-fits-all template.
We worked together to:
- Gradually rebuild her mobility and strength
- Avoid movements that aggravated her shoulder
- Adapt workouts quickly when needed (via regular check-ins)
I supported Conni every step of the way with:
- Weekly Zoom calls for progress reviews
- Ongoing message support to answer questions
- Custom exercise updates based on her progress
The Result
Within 4 months, Conni transformed:
- Increased range of motion: she could now move pain-free
- Pain-free daily life: no issues with driving, dressing, or lifting
- Back to upper-body training: including deadlifts, chest presses, and pulldowns
Her words:
“I made immense progress… I’m now able to train without pain and live life without limitations. Working with Ollie was a game-changer.”
