Dr. Jill Zimmerman

My programs are designed for motivated individuals who value taking the time to address the root cause of why their body feels the way it does. Whether you are working through a problem area, experience frequent setbacks, or want to use movement to alleviate physical as well as emotional and psychological stressors, these programs are designed for you. Also, if you love extra cues to make sure you’re ‘doing it right’, you’re in the right place!

Two reasons.

The first is that this is way more than an exercise app. It’s an opportunity to better understand YOUR body. I dig deep. Way beyond ‘mobility and strength’ to give you tools that will positively influence all aspects of your life, not just the physical.

The second is fundamentals. I get a ton of clients who want to stay in shape as they get older but are afraid to join a group class or general training app because they don’t want to hurt themselves. Mastering fundamental movement is how to prevent and heal injuries. I’ll take you through the fundamental building blocks necessary for success with more complex, challenging exercises or movements.

I am a Doctor of Physical Therapy by trade. So I am used to working with people in pain and with those who struggle with movement. I take on a lot of tough cases and I’ve learned a ton from them! Within this app I share with you all the tricks, tools and troubleshooting I’ve encountered over my 15 years in practice. There is a restorative nature in my work that is designed to heal through movement, breath and hands on techniques. Getting to the root cause will always be my priority.

100% yes! This is my why. I’ve seen far too many motivated individuals either quit exercise completely or push through to the point of injury simply because they didn’t know what to do differently. I’m here to show you the ropes and make those “impossible” exercises not only possible, but pain free.

Yes! If a specific movement can’t be performed without pain, it doesn’t mean forever. It just means right now. To overcome these limitations, the body needs something different. My job is to show your body what it is missing at a very basic level and build it up from there. Learning a new path takes time and work but it is 100% worth it when it comes to your health and physical well being. Get back to the things you want to do!

You do not need a gym membership or even a full home gym to complete these workouts. The following will be used throughout the app:

• Foam roller

• Yoga block

• Soft 6 inch ball such as a Coregeous Ball or Bender Ball

• Dumbells of various sizes

• Resistance bands

• Chair

• Small Step or Stool

This app can be used a couple different ways. Some may use it as their primary source of movement inspiration for the day, others may use it as an accessory to other fitness programs they are following. Either way, the workouts are designed in a way that you can do them every single day if you wish.

There are a variety of options ranging from quick 5 minute movement snacks to full 45-60 minute movement sessions.

Yes! And I encourage it! Due to the ‘building fundamentals’ and rehabilitative nature of the content in this app, every video acts as a perfect accessory to any training program. As you work through the videos in this app, you will begin to see positive changes in the way your body moves and feels in a variety of different movement practices.
