Choosing logic over trends takes serious backbone.

I have so much respect for @will_morrissette at @fp.minnesota . As our youngest practitioner, he had the courage to pivot—stepping away from the standard college route to master a system built on the irreducible facts of human biology @functionalpatterns 

Seeing a young adult prioritize biomechanics over “viral fitness trends” is exactly what this industry needs! #functionalpatterns #functionalpatternsresults #fitness #motivation #friendship by @will_morrissette

Pain-Limited Activity & Slow Recovery → Pain-Free, High-Level Performance

Marcelo initially struggled with recurring back pain and frequent injuries that affected his ability to participate in sports and daily activities. Recovery from physical activity was slow, often taking days after intense sessions.

Through consistent Functional Patterns training, improvements in gait mechanics, posture, and overall movement efficiency led to complete pain elimination. These changes allowed him to increase performance output while recovering faster and maintaining consistency.

Before FP (Feb 24, 2024 – Age 41):

❌ Average Back Pain: 4–6/10
❌ Upper Back Pain: 6/10
❌ Lower Back Pain: 3/10
❌ Frequent injuries and slow recovery
❌ Limited participation in sports and activities
❌ Gait Speed: 13 mph

After FP (Nov 21, 2025 – Age 43):

✅ Pain: 0/10
✅ Upper & Lower Back Pain: 0/10
✅ No more activity limitations
✅ Faster recovery after intense sports
✅ Able to sustain long-duration performance (e.g., 3+ hrs kiteboarding)
✅ Increased confidence in movement
✅ Gait Speed: 16.8 mph

Improved biomechanics translated directly into pain-free performance, better recovery, and a return to an active lifestyle.

Great work @will_morrissette .

Recurring Joint Pain → Active, Resilient Movement

When he began training, recurring knee and lower back pain affected everyday activity and comfort. Through FP training focused on posture, coordinated movement patterns, and tension distribution, structural support improved and pain levels significantly decreased.

The biggest change has been practical: he is now able to be more active with his four young kids and has developed the awareness and tools to adjust his body and resolve discomfort when it arises.

Before FP (May 1, 2024):

❌ Knee Pain: 2/10
❌ Low Back Pain: 4/10
❌ Limited comfort during daily activity
❌ Difficulty staying active for long periods

After FP (November 15, 2025):

✅ Knee Pain: 0/10
✅ Low Back Pain: 2/10
✅ Improved ability to self-adjust posture and movement
✅ More active daily life with his children
✅ Increased resilience in day-to-day movement

Functional Patterns improved structural awareness and movement control, reducing pain and helping him stay active with his family.

Great work @will_morrissette

We’re so grateful for the experience we’ve had so far at the @lindenhillsfarmmarket. 

This market has given us an incredible opportunity to meet and connect with fellow members of the St. Louis Park, Edina, Minneapolis, and surrounding communities.

If you’re struggling with chronic pain or limited performance, you don’t have to accept that it’s simply “getting older” or that it’s “always been this way.”

We’re here to build awareness around the solutions @functionalpatterns provides for people who are ready to think outside the traditional approaches and explore the underlying causes of pain, movement limitations, and performance plateaus.

Sunday, September 6th will be our final market of the season!

If you’re curious about what Functional Patterns could offer you, come stop by our tent. We want to meet you, hear your story, and answer any questions you have.

See you Sunday! 👋

Check out our results 👉🏽 @fp.evidence

Repost from @functionalpatterns @fp.minnesota  @fp.evidence @austin_.jordan

At 22, @austin_.jordan felt like an old man. Years of wrestling had left him with torn intercostals, slipped ribs, whiplash injuries, and constant 9/10 lower back pain. Simple actions like sneezing would throw his back out completely. Despite 7+ years of yoga, stretching, chiropractic care, and every conventional treatment, nothing provided lasting relief.

Then in December 2020, he was diagnosed with Graves’ disease and thyroid eye disease (TED). The symptoms were brutal: tremors, severely inflamed eyes, blurred vision, head pressure, light sensitivity, and heart palpitations. Doctors warned the swelling was so severe he could lose his vision from optic nerve compression. Surgery was strongly recommended.

Your macro biomechanics directly influence mechanical transduction, which scales down to affect your chemical responses and hormone levels. When dealing with thyroid dysfunction, autoimmune conditions, or endocrine imbalances, addressing your movement patterns at the foundational level creates a healing cascade throughout your entire system.

Instead of surgery or lifelong medication, he chose to address the root cause through proper human movement.

PAIN & STRUCTURE
❌ 9/10 constant lower back pain
❌ 6/10 daily thoracic spine pain 
❌ Sneezing would throw back out completely
❌ Torn intercostals and slipped ribs
❌ Chronic whiplash injuries

✅ Zero pain 
✅ Full mobility without restriction
✅ Strong, stable spine
✅ Athletic performance restored

GRAVES’ DISEASE SYMPTOMS
❌ Severe thyroid eye disease (TED)
❌ Vision threatened by optic nerve compression
❌ Constant tremors and heart palpitations
❌ Extreme light sensitivity
❌ Dry, inflamed, irritated eyes
❌ Doctors pushing surgery as only option

✅ Vision completely preserved
✅ Eye inflammation down
✅ Tremors down 
✅ Heart rate normalized
✅ Light sensitivity down

Huge structure gains from Graydon here. Dude has been visibly improving consistently since this result in 2024 too. 
Nice work you two🫡

Repost from @sumedh.shivkumar @fp.minnesota :

My client Graydon found Functional Patterns on social media after suffering from 5+ years of chronic lower back pain from a stress fracture in his L5 vertebra during his middle school soccer days. 

In his own words “Over the years I tried physical therapy, massage therapy and a chiropractor but still dealt with 4/10 back pain almost daily. I tried being active despite this and everytime I played ice hockey or ice skated I’d have hip tightness and pain and was also dealing with shoulder instability and pain if I made a wrong move. In just 2 months of training FP (20 sessions) my back pain went down to 0-1/10 and my hip tightness is almost completely gone and I can play hockey without any flare ups. My shoulder feels more stable than before. All this has improved my anxiety and I’m sleeping better and feeling more recharged when I wake up in the morning. My overall quality of life has improved since starting Functional Patterns Training”

STRONG FROM THE START: 
YOUTH POSTURE & PERFORMANCE 
***FREE CLASS Sunday October 5th***

Build better movement, confidence, and injury-free strength—for life. 

Is your child slouching, struggling with coordination, wanting to perform better or in pain after exercising? 

You’re not imagining it—and it’s not just “a phase.” Poor posture, screen time, and early sports specialization are putting more stress than ever on kids’ growing bodies. 

The result? Chronic pain, tight muscles, poor performance, and even lasting injury patterns… all before adulthood.

>> BUT it doesn’t have to be that way.

We are here to help.

Get your kid(s) ages 5-18 to our FREE Youth Posture & Performance intro class on Sunday October 5th from 11:00am - 11:55am so they can experience how.

Have you noticed if your kid seems to move clunky or stand slumped over? 

Could they use a boost in their confidence? 

Do they complain of having pain or being tired? 

Do their shoulder blades stick out of their back like chicken wings? 

Are they expressing wanting to improve their performance? 

Do they play sports and get injured? 

In general as a parent, are you looking to set your kid up for long term success with their movement and health? 

Well…..look no further as our YOUTH PROGRAM starts this week! 

We are excited to help your child build confidence, increase strength, improve coordination and perform better. 

Last call to sign your kid up! DM for details.

Shout out to @fp.newjersey for paving the way on getting young humans improving their posture and athleticism 🏃🏿. What a powerful transformation Benny made 🏈. 

• @functionalpatterns From being too slow and suffering from back pains to becoming a key player in his sports teams.

“Benny was criticized in sports for being slow. He had a hard time running bases in baseball and would suffer low back pain after exercising for an extended period of time.”

“After 7 months of FP his parents noticed a significant change. No more back pain. He is no longer criticized for being “too slow” and is a major contributor to his sports teams. His coordination, speed, and balance have improved tremendously.”

“Benny is hooked on FP and plans to continue to use
FP as he grows up.

Let’s go Benny!!!

11 month differences. 1-3x a week FPNJ youth group classes.

Great work here by @fp.newjersey leading the way for our youth to attain and maintain healthy bodies into their 100s!! That’s our goal.
