This is a night you won’t want to miss! Non-members are welcome, so bring a guest. To register, email ICEvents@LakeshoreSF.com or visit www.lsf_ic-djyogaandwine19.eventbrite.com.

Sweater Climb – December 5^th, 2019
Beginner to Experienced Climbers. Join us for a night of festive climbing. Have an ugly holiday sweater that would look good on the wall? The best or the worst will be voted on by our instructors with prizes awarded.

Enjoy a challenging evening of climbing on one of the tallest indoor walls in the United States. Wouldn’t you rather have a unique exercise experience with a friend or co-worker? Either bring one or meet new ones. Climbing is more fun together. Discounts available for groups of five or more. Early Bird Orientations are available at 5pm for an additional $10. Limited to the first 5 registered. $20 for members & $25 for non-members. Includes rental equipment, instruction, plenty of climb-time, refreshments & snacks. Every climber gets a $5 drink tab in Press Kitchen that night. RSVP to Bob Good at Climbing@LakeshoreSF.com. Register early. Space is limited.

Indoor Golf Demo Night: Tuesday, December 10^th, 6 – 8:30PM
Have you walked by Press Kitchen and never tried our professional-grade indoor golf simulator? This is the perfect night to get in a few swings, have a little fun, while enjoying a cool one. Doesn’t matter what your level is or even if you have golfed before. We will give you the proper instruction and show you how it works. No need to bring golf clubs, because we even have those ready for you. Bring a friend if you want to show off the club. The fee is $20 for members and $30 for non-members and that includes a beverage of your choice from Press Kitchen and some snacks. Space is limited, so register right away. Contact Bob Good at BobG@LakeshoreSF.com.

Mindfulness Workshop: The Chakras! December 11^th, 6:30 – 8PM
What are the Chakras really anyway? Attend this special 90 min workshop led by Amanda Brizic, the first of a series we are proud to offer, exploring the vast universe of yoga philosophies to enhance your yoga practice and lifestyle. Find out if blockages are causing stress, anxiety, lethargy, poor digestion, or other issues. Opening up your chakras can release a flow of energy that will make you feel like a new human! This workshop will be structured as more of an interactive lecture/conversation than a traditional yoga class, but you will have opportunities to practice related postures and observe the effects. Come prepared to move a little, listen and learn, engage in an open and honest conversation about living mindfully as a yogi in the modern world and take away an enhanced understanding of the Chakra System. Please bring a pen and notebook to the workshop as you may be asked to do some journaling or wish to take notes.

Lunchtime Climbs Available Now Available on Wednesdays!
Can’t make it after work and want to get a climb in during lunch? Join us every Wednesday from 11:30am – 1:30pm. First-time Orientations and Belay-Checks available. Reservations required with a minimum 24 hours’ notice. How about a Quick-Climb? This is for anyone that has never tried the wall and would like to sample it. It is a first-time only offer to get in a short climb to see how you like it. Reservations required. Wednesday evening climbing will no longer be available.

Holiday Family Climb and Swim – December 22^nd, 10am – 2pm!
Want a fun and exciting way to keep the family active during the holidays? Then come check out our Holiday Family Climb & Swim on Sunday, December 22^nd.

Pain on the Bottom of Your Foot?
If you are experiencing pain on the bottom of your foot while walking, especially with your first few steps in the morning, you may be suffering from plantar fasciitis. The plantar fascia is a thick fibrous band along the bottom of your foot that can become inflamed, and over time, thickened due to increased stress. Consistent stretching of the calf and plantar fascia are main steps to treat this very painful condition. You may also need to modify your recreational activities. Avoid walking barefoot around your house and try using supportive house slippers. Check out our recent Instagram post to learn how to properly stretch your calf and plantar fascia and get your pain-free pep back into your step!

Freestyle It

The shoulder joint is one of the most complex and vulnerable joints in the body, as it sacrifices stability for range of motion. The freestyle stroke utilizes a wide range of motion and therefore, normal muscle firing sequence is imperative for pain-free swimming. Freestyle can be broken down into 3 phases: hand entry/reach, pull through, and recovery. Each of these phases requires high demand and activity from multiple muscles at different times. Colwin et al (Breakthrough Swimming. Champaign, IL: Human Kinetics; 2002) utilized EMG analysis to measure muscle activity throughout the freestyle stroke. These muscles were the most active in their respective stages:

Reach – Deltoid, Upper trapezius, Rhomboids
Pull Through – Pectoralis major, Serratus Anterior, Latissimus Dorsi, Subscapularis
Recovery – Posterior/middle Deltoid, Rhomboids, Serratus Anterior, Infraspinatus

So why is this important? Due to the repetitive nature of swimming, it can place stress on the shoulder girdle musculature and glenohumeral joint. Pain or difficulty performing freestyle can be tied to weakness or poor endurance in the muscles utilized during the corresponding phase. Adding scapular and shoulder strengthening into your program can prevent injury and improve stroke biomechanics.

Whether you are new to the sport, looking for pointers for your technique, or addressing shoulder weakness, the staff at Lakeshore Sport & Fitness is here for you. LSF professional swim instructors can be reached at: LPAquatics@lakeshoreSF.com. Appointments with Lakeshore Physical Therapy to address shoulder pain can be made here: www.lakeshore-pt.com.

Wine & Paint Night – “So Much Fun! What’s Next?” – Yoga with a DJ!
LSF Members and Guests had a blast at our Wine & Paint Night. Laughs were shared by all as beautifully unique works of art were painted by hand. Thank you to all those that attended! Wondering what’s next at LSF? December 5^th will be a yoga event on the basketball court featuring a DJ. Contact ICEvent@LakeshoreSF.com to find out about this event and more. We’re happy to help you book your next event – fun or work related – and help create more fun experiences like this one!

30 Day of Gratitude – Explore a Theme of Thankfulness this November
This November our entire yoga department will join forces to help you develop a practice of gratitude on and off your mat. Each class all month you will be provided the opportunity to write down one specific thing you are grateful for on a small card that is personal and powerful to you. You can keep this card at the top of your mat (or hidden underneath – no one else needs to know what it says) so that it becomes part of your intention in your yoga practice, fills your moving meditation with a new sense of purpose, and keeps you grounded in gratitude and contentment. By the end of the month you will have a whole collection of gratitude cards to reflect upon and remind yourself just how much you have to be thankful for in life.

Indoor Golf Demo Night: Tuesday, December 3^rd, 6 – 8:30PM

No need to bring golf clubs, because we even have those ready for you. Bring a friend if you want to show off the club. The fee is $20 for members and $30 for non-members and that includes a beverage of your choice from Press Kitchen and some snacks. Space is limited, so register right away.

Freestyle It!

The shoulder joint is one of the most complex and vulnerable joints in the body, as it sacrifices stability for range of motion. The freestyle stroke utilizes a wide range of motion and therefore, normal muscle firing sequence is imperative for pain-free swimming. Freestyle can be broken down into 3 phases: hand entry/reach, pull through, and recovery. Each of these phases requires high demand and activity from multiple muscles at different times. Colwin et al (Breakthrough Swimming. Champaign, IL: Human Kinetics; 2002) utilized EMG analysis to measure muscle activity throughout the freestyle stroke. These muscles were the most active in their respective stages:

5 Things You May NOT Know About Physical Therapy!

Physical Therapists hold advanced degrees:

All physical therapy schools now have transitioned to a 3-year entry-level doctorate program as the scope of practice has grown. We are trained to differentially diagnose your condition and treat it appropriately.

Physical Therapy can treat headaches:

There are certain type of headaches that are “cervicogenic” in nature, meaning that they originate in the neck. PT can be a great way to treat headaches without having to use medication.

“No pain, No gain” is not always our motto:

Yes, there are some conditions that may require more aggressive approaches to get you back to feeling normal but those are few and far between. Many times our treatments are not painful and should make you feel better when you leave our clinic.

Physical Therapy can (and should) address your posture:

Posture plays a large role in many orthopedic conditions from poor desk ergonomics to improper standing and walking posture. Posture assessment and treatment can restore normal mechanics.

Physical Therapy can be a great alternative to surgery:

Surgery is not your only option. Much of the research has found that physical therapy can provide the same, if not better, outcomes as surgery for many conditions.

Lakeshore Physical Therapy experts in evaluation and treatment are a click away! www.lakeshore-pt.com

Gain Health and Strength at Press Kitchen!

Tennis Tip of the Week – Improving Your Serve

Lakeshore Physical Therapy – What is Your Core?

We always hear about “core strength” but what does this really mean? People often have the perception that the core is only made up of your abdominal muscles. It is actually the sturdy link in a chain connecting your upper and lower body. By working on pure rectus abdominis strength (sit ups, for example) you are not really working on core strength and could potentially even add stress to your spine. The core has three-dimensional depth and functional movement in all three planes. In addition to the superficial rectus abdominis and gluteals, the core also includes deeper muscles (transversus abdominis, multifidis, obliques, diaphragm and pelvic floor). These muscles all work together as a stabilizer unit and force transfer center, rather than a prime mover. We can start to achieve core stability in static movements (plank) then progress to more dynamic patterns (single leg dead lift). Bridging is a common core stabilization exercise that can be modified from very basic to advanced. Keeping the body’s stabilizer muscles strong will not only improve your athletic performance, but it will help in life’s everyday tasks. Bending, reaching and twisting are movements we do daily and without adequate stability of the core, issues such low back, hip or knee pain can occur. If you have any questions about your strength or core stability, please contact Lakeshore Physical Therapy or visit our website to learn more about our services at www.lakeshore-pt.com.
