The muscles you stopped using are holding you back. MAC finds them, wakes them up, and rebuilds the chain — for everyday people in pain and riders chasing performance.
Chances are it’s a muscle that stopped talking to your brain — and the rest of your body has been compensating ever since. Get ready to improve.
It’s not bad genetics or an old injury you’re stuck with. It’s a fixable weak link — and finding it is exactly what MAC does.
Real anatomy, translated into plain language you’ll actually remember. (“Your foot should act like a tripod, not a pancake.”)
A virtual call or hands-on assessment maps your whole kinetic chain and pinpoints which muscles quit and which are overworking.
Targeted muscle-activation work wakes up the stabilizers that went quiet — often in a single session.
Bands, bodyweight, and movement work retrain your body to hold the correction — on the ground and mounted.
Better balance, a stronger seat, less pain — without grinding through more reps of the same bad pattern.
Start with a free assessment, then choose how you want to train — live, one-on-one, with your horse, or on your own time.

Founder of MAC (Muscle Activation Coaching) and the Pain-Free Strength & Mobility Community. Thomas built MAC around one idea: most pain and most performance plateaus trace back to muscles that quietly stopped firing.
A Licensed Massage Therapist trained in anatomy, physiology, kinesiology, and hands-on bodywork, he works with riders, athletes, and everyday people to find the imbalances nobody else catches — then fix them, one correction at a time.
