  • 3 Surprising Reasons Stretching Isn’t Solving Your Tightness

    3 Surprising Reasons Stretching Isn’t Solving Your Tightness Stretching is often seen as the go-to remedy for tight muscles, but what if it’s not the solution you think it is? Here are three surprising reasons why stretching might not be solving your tightness—and what you can do about it. 1. Tightness is a Neurological Signal, Not Just a Muscle Issue Did you know that tightness can be a signal from your nervous system? Your brain may intentionally keep a muscle tight to protect a joint or compensate for weakness elsewhere. Stretching doesn’t address the root cause; it might just be fighting your nervous system’s protective response. 2. You’re ....

  • Stop Stretching. Start Solving the Real Problem.

    Stop Stretching. Start Solving the Real Problem. Stretching all the time, but still feel tight? You’re not alone — and there’s a reason for it. 😫 Why Do I Always Feel Tight? Most “tightness” isn’t about being inflexible. It’s your body trying to protect you. Here’s why: 1. Your Body’s on Guard When something feels unstable (like your hips, back, or shoulders), your body locks things up to protect you. 🧠 Your brain says: “Let’s tighten up until we feel safe.” ✅ Fix it: Build better strength and control — not just stretch. 2. You’re Overworking Certain Muscles When the wrong muscles are doing ....

Let's break down what muscle memory really is, why common misconceptions persist, and how understanding it correctly can transform your fitness results. The Muscle Memory Myth vs. RealityThe most common misconception about muscle memory is that your muscles somehow "remember" exercises you've done before. People often say things like, "Don't worry about taking a break—your muscles will remember what to do when you come back." Here's the truth: your muscles don't have memory cells. They can't ....

  • Why the Number of Reps Doesn’t Matter (And What Actually Does)

    Why the Number of Reps Doesn’t Matter (And What Actually Does) In the world of fitness, “how many reps should I do?” is one of the most common questions people ask. It’s been drilled into us: 3 sets of 10 for hypertrophy, 5x5 for strength, high reps for endurance, low reps for size… but what if I told you that the number of reps doesn’t really matter? Let’s break this down—because according to biomechanics expert Tom Purvis (creator of the Resistance Training Specialist® program), reps are arbitrary unless the variables that influence them are understood and controlled. The Rep is Just a Container Think of a rep as a ....

  • Stop Going Through the Motions: Transform Your Workouts with Intentional Personal Training!

    The Goal of Your Exercise: Are you tired of just going through the motions when it comes to your workouts? Do you feel like you're not getting the results you want, despite putting in the effort?

I have been training with Dominick at Theorem Fitness for several months and during this time I have seen marked improvement in my physical health and strength. My main goals are to get ahead of my Rheumatoid Arthritis and build muscle and strength. The anticipated result being less pain and increased flexibility. I have already experienced improvement. In the past, I have tried various other trainers and physical therapists to no avail. With Dominick, I can see muscle growth and I feel stronger. Dominick is very knowledgeable and has been able to help me significantly strengthen my weak areas. He keeps the training engaging and provides the necessary accountability I need to maintain my motivation in the program. He has made himself available for advice at any time. I have not seen this in any other program. He addresses all aspects of training, including diet. He has provided dietary suggestions and adapts a training program unique to my own personal needs and abilities. I, 100%, NO QESTION, recommend Dominick, especially if you do not think you are able due to a medical issue or injury. It is evident that Dominick truly cares about his clients’ success.

In just 12 weeks of working one on one with Dominick at Theorem Fitness, I reached all my goals! I have greatly improved mobility & flexibility, I am pain completely free and I lost 25 pounds and many, many inches! I had tried half a year of physiotherapy and was still in pain and still greatly limited in my flexibility & mobility. Dominick thoroughly tested my muscle contractions to truly understand what was happening and why. He then addressed my specific imbalances and set a program personalized for me. I have my life back and my physical future looks brighter than I could have ever imagined! 100% recommend!

I started training with Dominick back in July 2023 with some big goals and the desire to turn my whole life around, to become healthier and happier! I wanted to lose weight, strengthen and relieve lower back pains I’d had for many years. We managed to achieve all of it and more! He performed a lengthy and thorough in depth assessment of how my body moved and reacted (which I’d never had working with any another trainer), he then built a program personalized to me with all his findings. It worked!!! I lost 25lbs, I’m much stronger, I’ve toned up and fell better than i ever have…and NO pain!! His approach is genius, and i would highly recommend him over and over, and do! Don’t suffer, pick up the phone and book an appointment, you will 100% not regret it!
