25 Anthony, Correction officer - How he found his Scoliosis
Anthony & I connected during a workshop of training with the mace. Shortly after, he shared that he has scoliosis.
This is his story. in 2014, while working at a prison, in NJ he was putting out a fire. As a result of the fire, he would have chest X-rays for smoke inhalation. During this, the nurse noticed his curve. At age 31 he would be diagnosed with Scoliosis.
He discussed this with his PT. Going to different doctors, he would get different assessments saying his curves were not of the same degrees.
Looking back, he had pain in his left side. Since then his training has evolved. He’s training smarter, educating himself & using different modalities
He started working with a mace. He liked the mace because of the various planes of motion, as well as it helping his shoulder. Emphasizing it’s essential to train smart when using the mace.
He shares how he started getting into the mace, because of it’s “deep functional training.”
He started heavy with his first mace. He quickly learned that mace training isn’t about the weight.
Since working with the mace, he his mobility has increased.
