DOWNLOAD MELT Performance: A Step-by-Step Program to Accelerate Your Fitness Goals, Improve Balance and Control, and Prevent Chronic Pain and Injuries for Life
This long-awaited follow-up to the New York Times bestselling The MELT Method introduces a unique, scientific-based proactive training program for improving overall balance, performance, and control while preventing pain and injury.
Are you an athlete facing constant injuries that hold you back from achieving peak performance? Are you someone who wants to stay fit, but are dealing with aches and pains that make it more difficult to work out? Do you want to exercise or train without being sidelined by stress fractures, strained ligaments, and painful joints?
If you answered yes to any of these questions, you need MELT Performance.
The conditioning you do to stay in shape and perfect and improve performance—running on a treadmill, doing squats or bicep curls, practicing our backhand, even doing downward dog—requires repetitive movements. Yet 80% of orthopedic injuries are the result of repetitive motion, not trauma or accidents. In MELT Performance, nationally recognized educator, manual therapist, and exercise physiologist Sue Hitzmann introduces a revolutionary program centered on neurological joint stability or Neurostrength, that will revolutionize your health and performance.
The foundation of MELT Performance is stability. To stay injury free, our joints must stable before we do repetitive motions. Acquiring stability allows the body to respond to the demands of motion. It’s the way we were designed to function—and allows us to move more efficiently, improve coordination, and save our joints. Knowing how to check in, restore, and reintegrate joint stability before it’s compromised gives an unparalleled advantage to anyone who trains hard to perform at their best.
Hitzmann’s techniques are proven to work—they’re already used by world renowned professional athletes and fitness enthusiasts. If you’re ready to improve your performance and prevent injury, MELT Performance is essential no matter what sport or activity you pursue.

More helpful info from Sue Really, it's mostly the same routines, just how they are applied to specific sports, game day routines, etc...), but I did find a couple of new things I can add to the foam roller class I'm currently teaching. Would still love to participate in a training/certification one day. There was one locally last year, but I didn't find out about it until after registration had closed. Couldn't have afforded it, anyway... 336 Book is great and I bought the foam roller kit to do the exercises and it has helped calm my chronic headaches and fibromyalgia pain significantly! 336 Notes:
This book was so boring! And I usually love the science parts of health books, but just too repetitive and wordy.
Some ideas are just better in video form. Plus if you don't have a roller you can't do the exercises. 336 Sue’s methods are nothing short of genius! Her research, application and design of the MELT method has been life changing for me after suffering for years from chronic pain, both post radical hysterectomy over 17 years ago, and more recently having a section of my rib removed to release the brachial plexus due to a congenital condition. The neurological stability and strength maps are now part of my daily warm up before my workouts and before my day as a busy Personal Trainer. My body has never felt and performed so well, thank you Sue 🙏🏻👏😃 336
