Examples of pliability in a Sentence
The key to success is the capacity to change, while many athletes get stuck in a cycle of injury and rehab – trapped in the belief that strength training is the only path toward peak performance and recovery – Tom and I focus on how powerful the ability to adapt can be. We incorporate muscle pliability work and functional strength and conditioning exercises into his routine, which are key pillars of TB12.
When I first started working with Tom, he couldn’t toss a ball without feeling pain. I worked with him using what would later be coined as muscle pliability, and he noticed a difference within two days of receiving his treatment. From there, our friendship and partnership began, i remember one day in 2012, we were sitting in Tom’s living room during a break in their offseason training and we reflected on the impact our work together had made on his ability to improve his performance. I asked myself: If what we’re doing works for you, why wouldn’t it work for everyone? And so, the TB12 brand was born.
