How Professional Athletes are Able to Get Rid of Pain in Minutes without Years of Frustrating Rehab

We were deep into the NBA season already when the Cleveland Cavaliers came to town.

Led by the world’s best basketball player LeBron James, this was a tall task for our young, Los Angeles Lakers team.

The ask was even bigger for our star rookie who was tasked with defending King James that evening.

“Sean,” he said as he walked into the weight room 15 minutes before the game, “My shoulder is killing me.”

“You’re telling me this NOW?” I shot back.

“Sorry,” he said sheepishly, “But is there anything you can do?”

This was not the first time this has happened to me. For the six years prior to this moment, I had seen similar scenes play out in our training room with hundreds of other professional athletes.

“Give me your arm,” I instructed as I grabbed his shoulder and got right to work.

Two minutes later, he was twirling his arm in a circle and said…

"I can't believe how fast this stuff works!"

When the game concluded later that night, the young rookie had tallied 18 points against the future hall of famer.

That is Athletic Medicine.

In the high stakes world of professional sports, aches and pains are simply unacceptable. When they inevitably arise, eliminating them immediately was the only option.

No safety nets. No six-month physical therapy programs. We must have results and we must have them now.

It forced us to scour the earth in search of the most effective and efficient strategies for restoring the body and crafting them into a strategy that would work for the greatest athletes on the planet.

At 4A, our mission is to break down the secret doors of professional sports training facilities and bring these strategies directly to you.

This is Where You Go After You've Tried Everything

To everyone out there in pain and struggling to find a solution...To the people who have been to specialist after specialist in a perpetual search for an answer...To those of you reading this at 3:00 in the morning, deep down the rabbit hole of self-research desperately trying to get your life back...THIS IS FOR YOU!

Dear Future Athletes...

I was a lot dumber than all the other coaches.

Everyone else had specialized degrees, advanced certifications and used words that I had never heard before.

I, on the other hand, had just one degree…in JOURNALISM.

It was my first Spring Training as a Strength and Conditioning Coach for the Arizona Diamondbacks and I was really feeling like a fish out of water.

I knew that if I was going to make a career in this field and make any more than my starting salary of $23,500/year, I was going to have to find a way to overcome the fact that I didn’t have the education of the other coaches.

I may not have a degree in Exercise Science, but I'm going to get my PhD in RESULTS!

“I’m going to have to deliver ten times the results as anyone else,” I thought to myself.

And that’s what I set out to do. I spent every dime of my measly salary on courses, books and flights around the world to learn from the experts.

The more I learned, the more the world took notice. Universities and National Conferences began asking me to speak at their institutions and events.

As my results grew undeniable, major sports franchises began to take notice. They didn’t care about my degree, they cared about the results I was delivering.

In a few short years, I had accumulated over 30 advanced certifications of my own, a Masters degree in Sport Performance and Injury Prevention, landed a job with the Los Angeles Lakers and even became an approved education provider to teach the very same coaches who overshadowed me a few years prior.

Everything I learned and the results that I delivered have been poured into the Athletic Medicine System.

If you talk to any of my clients, they will tell you, I am 120% committed to one thing…the result.

Whatever it takes, whatever I have to do, come hell or high water, I will get you the result and Athletic Medicine is our vehicle to get you there.

Let’s get to work!
