The Original Strength (OS) system, embodying the philosophy of "Pressing RESET," offers a pathway back to natural movement patterns, helping individuals overcome injuries and enhance physical capabilities. Here are key stories of transformation from the OS community:

1. **The Marathon Runner's Second Act - Sarah M.** After years of running marathons, Sarah faced chronic pain and accepted it as part of aging. Upon trying OS movements like crawling and rolling, she noticed significant relief from her back pain and improved running performance without discomfort, highlighting the benefits of foundational stability and mobility.

2. **Beating the Desk-Job Slouch - David L.** David, a software engineer, struggled with poor posture and tension headaches from a sedentary lifestyle. After incorporating OS movements into his routine, he saw improvement in his posture and relief from headaches, enhancing his overall strength and comfort in daily life.

3. **Finding Confidence After Injury - Elena V.** Following a wrist fracture, Elena felt weak and fearful of movement. Through OS’s gentle patterns like rocking and carries, she regained trust in her body and improved her gardening abilities, illustrating how OS supports psychological and physical rehabilitation after injury.

4. **Breaking Through the Strength Plateau - Mark R.** Trainer Mark felt stagnant in his strength gains despite rigorous lifting. By incorporating the complete OS RESET sequence into his warm-up, he experienced immediate improvements in tightness and strength, allowing him to perform better in his training.

Overall, these stories emphasize how OS can restore foundational movement, enhance physical performance, and improve quality of life across various circumstances.

The field of physical therapy is constantly evolving, requiring practitioners to seek out methods that are not only effective but also fundamentally sound. For years, I sought a common thread to tie disparate treatment techniques together, looking for a way to address movement dysfunction at its root. I found that thread in the Original Strength (OS) Pressing RESET system.

Think about it: from the moment we're born, our bodies possess inherent movement patterns. These are the fundamental, reflexive movements that allow us to roll, crawl, rock, and eventually stand and walk with strength and agility. It’s a profound idea that underpins our entire philosophy, especially our revolutionary Pressing RESET System.
