RockTape: the Punk Rock Child of Kinesiology Tape. Part 2.

7/28/2014

This past weekend was a taping FEST at the CrossFit Games in Carson, CA.  Athletes lined up for various applications ranging from protection for their hands, tweaked knees, shoulders, and backs, or simply support for certain movements.  
In this second part of the article, I discuss how kinesiology tape works, its applications, and its contraindications.  If you want to learn more about using RockTape with your clients, patients, and athletes, sign up for one of our Functional Movement Taping or Performance Movement Taping courses.  Either myself or one of our other fine instructors will provide a fun filled learning environment with an education in movement and taping  like no other.   Visit www.RockTape.com for dates and locations.

Rock-(Tape)-ing the CrossFit Games 2014

I'm sitting at D.I.A right now waiting to board the plane that will take me and about one hundred other passengers to the "land of the pretty people".  Aka, Los Angeles. I'm praying to the flight gods that any screaming children will be placed in the rear of the plane or in an overhead compartment far, far away for the duration of the flight. 
The CrossFit Games 2014 are upon us!  Underneath my freshly pressed, white, button down dress shirt is my RockTape Athlete Services t-shirt silently poised like a cape waiting for the moment a CrossFit Games competitor cries for tape....

Who the eff am I kidding...I don't iron. But, The rest is true ;)
I'm stoked to be going and even more stoked to be going with my RockTape teammates to provide taping  to the world's fittest versions of the human species. Fine specimens indeed. 
Over the next few days, I'll be posting pics and video as often as I can. I have a feeling the rare moments that I find myself with a free set of hands, I might be shoveling food and water in my face but, I'll do my best to bring you all along for the experience through digital means. Follow my Altitude Aptitude fb page for the latest and greatest updates.
Click on the CrossFit pics below to go the the website for live coverage of the action. If you see the RockTape tent on tv or in person, wave ;)

RockTape:the punk rock child of KT-tape

I get to work with and for one of the coolest movement companies on the planet. Rocktape, the punk rock, bad-ass child of kinesio-tape,  is a staple in my clinic and my athletes can often be seen sporting a variety of designs aiding their areas of treatment or performance chain tweaks. 
Getting to teach other clinicians, coaches, trainers, and doctors how to use this in their own clinic is not only rewarding, it's ridiculously fun.  

Here's part one of an article I wrote, published in Massage Magazine regarding the science behind why it's a fantastic addition to your treatment therapies. 

Click on the magazine to access the article and stay tuned for Part 2.  
If you are interested in learning more about whether kinesio-tape can help you or if you're a doctor, trainer, coach, or therapist who would like more information on how to add this tool to your services, don't hesitate to contact me.  Visit www.RockTape.com for even more info.

    The Blog 

    This is where you'll find my latest musings on all things flesh, bone, and body related and will cover all the most pertinent topics in a variety of settings.  As a Licensed Massage Therapist specializing in Sports and a veteran personal trainer of almost two decades, I've gathered a nugget or two of knowledge and experience along the way. This blog will be diverse in it's content, solid in its message, and likely to make you laugh at least once or twice. Whether it's a video of how to repair your broken and achy bits, a review of mud's effect on burpees and your complexion, or a recipe for a mouthwatering plate of goodness, I'll do my best to educate and entertain you.  I promise not to be boring.
