Alan J. Quisido, DPT

Could not have completed this journey without help from my friends, family, & my partner in crime Ellie Fishlock, PT, DPT ❤️ Thank you for the continuous love and support. Thank you for pushing me to be my best. Thank you for believing in me when I didn’t. Not bad for a 30 year old, eh? 👴🏼

First lifting session in a whilee. Truly missed it!

DL:
1x1 (150kg/330lbs)
Backdown:
1x3 (140kg/308lbs)
1x5 (120kg/264lbs)

Bench:
1x1 (107.5kg/237lbs)
Backdown:
3x6 (70kg/154lbs)

Update:
Hi everyone 👋🏼 hope y’all are doing well! Glad to be back atleast for a little bit! Gonna be posting more consistently during this 5 week break. We made it through another semester of DPT school, and am so close to starting clinicals! Really trying to take advantage of this free time to train again, and more importantly spend time with friends and family. In terms of my back, I’ve been really dialing back on the weight and focusing more on technique and pain management. Today’s session is the first time in months where I had pushed it. Felt decent but still a ways to go! Peace ✌🏼

A wise man once said: “Motion is lotion”

DL:
1x1 (495lbs/225kg)
2x2 (455lbs/207kg)
2x2 (405lbs/184kg)

Road to rehab pt 3:
- Hey y’all! Hope everyone’s doing well. Have been taking a step back on the heavy lifting to focus on technique. Deadlifts have been on the back burner the past 2 months just because it’s been causing me the most pain. Just been doing a lot of mobility and stabilization work, and it’s been great! Realizing that some movement is better than no movement. This is my first time hitting 495lbs in almost 2 months, and surprisingly had no pain throughout this session 😬

School update:
- Finished my first mini clinical, and it was awesome! Got to use what I learned from school and help some patients out. Officially in my second year of the DPT program and am excited for what’s to come.

Road to rehab ep 3 🌮

Squats:
3x3 (top set 165kg/363lbs)
3x3 backdown
2x8 backdown

Notes:
- Heyyy yallll, hope everyone’s doing well 🙌🏼 squats felt decent today. Been taking a step back on heavy training in order to further understand what’s going on with my hip. Have been using my own injury as a case to learn and experiment with different techniques and modalities. It’s been pretty interesting so far! Will give an update later
School update:
- Week 1 of clinicals is doneee 🙌🏼 so far, it’s been extremely fun! As a former PT aide, I found physical therapy to be such a humbling and rewarding experience. Walking in on my first day as an SPT meant so much to me. It was the years of grinding that finally gave me a glimpse of what to look forward to when I graduate. Working hands on with patients, understanding their pain/issues, and helping them get better has already given me a sense of purpose and meaning. Not only that, but I’m learning a lot from my CI in terms of education and his personal experiences. Here’s to week 2 🥂 taken in Five Thirteen Strength by @alanlifts

- Dialing back on weight to focus on form and recognize any pain during my lifts. Work in progress.
- Had a great convo with homie @smolbeanlifts. Really gained some perspective on expectations and aspects to work on as a SPT. Thanks again! taken in Five Thirteen Strength by @alanlifts

Hey y’all!! Hope everyone’s doing well 🙌🏼Been resting and recovering back from a chronic hip injury that has recently got worse the past few months. As I’m slowly working my way back into powerlifting, I’ll also taking a different approach on training. Gonna be incorporating some things I’ve learned from school into my accessory/stretching routine. General goal: lift heavy without any pain

School update:
First year of DPT school is in the books! Mann…that was the most difficult academic year of my life ☠️ At the same time, it was also the most productive, and I learned so much. Lots of sacrifice, studying, and adapting. Would not trade this year for anything. Mini clinicals start in a little over a week, and im beyond excited! taken in Five Thirteen Strength by @alanlifts

- First time deadlifting in 3 weeks and it moved pretty well! I will say the workout took longer than expected cus my adductors have been cramping up, but I managed to work through it.
- Been using this spring break to catch up on training and just really spend time with my family and friends back in Jerzzz. It’s been nice, but gotta get back on the grind soon.

Thanks for the push fellas 👐🏼

Squat:
3x5 (top set 187.5kg/413lbs)

Bench:
1x1 (130kg/286lbs)
4x4 (110kg/242lbs)

(Swipe right to watch me eat food)

Notes:
- Hi guys! Hope everyone’s doing well. Have been MIA because of school (midterms), but now I’m on spring break for the week 🥳
- Had a good workout with the homies. Vibes were immaculate ✨ squat tech has been very good recently, and I’ve been able to hit 400+ consistently which is a huge win. Hopefully more big boy numbers during the summer
- Back in Jersey, I absolutely missed the bagels and pizza 😍 will indulge this week.
- school update: DPT school is moving a lot smoother than last semester. That being said, there’s still work that needs to be done, and I feel like things are difficult in a different way. A lot more hands on work, and more education of what to experience within the field of PT. It’s been fun, and very interactive. Ya boy is tired, but loving everything right now.
- have a good day y’all ✌🏼 taken in Adelante Barbell Club by @alanlifts
