Verified Athlete"Patellar tendonitis nearly did me in. As a longtime runner, I wasn’t ready to give up the sport. Thank heaven for Coach Abigail...Her tailored approach to strength work got me back on the trails, feeling strong and pain-free. Abigail knows her stuff, plain and simple. I trust her implicitly."
