Bell Performance Therapy

As a police officer that works third shift, I would highly recommend Bellman Performance Therapy. Prior to his program, I was hovering at 260 lb and it was a challenge to get to the gym after work. During Bellman’s program, I was given guidance on how to work out and what type of workouts to do. This helped a lot with making working out more fun and less like a chore. I realized Bellmans program was working because within a month, I had lost about 15 lbs and had gained stamina. Which helped improve my mental health and physical health. Once Bellmans program was done I was around 245-235 lbs and I felt physically and mentally better than I started. The program helped jump start on working out on a consistent basis, which has led to me dropping more weight and being at 219 lbs. Overall, I would say I was impressed with the program and its a program that focuses on and help people in Law Enforcement that struggle maintaining good physical health. I firmly believe it’s a good investment for agencies that want better personnel in better physical and mental state to face the tiring work of law enforcement.

Eugene is like family for us. He’s been a massive resource for our program and his dedication to all members of this train up makes hime very essential to first ID success. Eugene knows this competition in and out and we greatly appreciate his support to 1st ID.

I would recommend it to any police department. The program built camaraderie with the troops, and everyone said they looked forward to the workouts (even though the jokingly complained about being tortured...cops!!). But most of the troops have expressed their gratitude for getting the program up and running, and I have heard nothing but positive compliments about the program.

I would highly recommend Bell Performance Therapy. Ten out of ten. We all accomplished more than we thought we could. I noticed the department looks healthier than ever and everyone said they wanted to continue the program.

I had struggled for over a year to recover from stubborn forearm tendinitis due to climbing overuse—then I developed even more tendinitis in my biceps due to regular gym training—and it wasn't until I worked with Brandon that I started to see drastic improvements in all of my problem areas. He and I worked out a really solid program for me to follow and I was able to bounce back way quicker than expected. I went in only expecting physical therapy guidance, but Brandon provided an experience that was so much more than just "do this, do that". He shared so much valuable knowledge with me and was always willing to answer my questions. Knowing Brandon exists literally gives me peace of mind and motivation for my future training journey. I truly felt like I got way more than what I asked for in the best way possible, and I'm eager to continue working with him so I can get back to scaling rock walls, lifting heavy, and working on fulfilling my hybrid athlete dreams. :)

After throwing my back out again I reached out to Brandon to help with my recovery. When I had previously thrown my back out I worked with my primary care physician, various chiropractors and traditional physical therapy with limited success. His individualized treatment was far superior to any of the previously mentioned methods and put me back on track much quicker. I highly recommend.

"Brandon Bellman is extremely knowledgeable, patient, and thorough. I came to him with my first, and prayerfully last, bout of sciatica related low back pain. Internally, I was spiraling and defeated. His approach and demeanor calmed my mind and my anxiety around the prognosis. Utilizing the movements and modifications he helped me with, I was able to continue moving while my body healed.
He was also wonderful with my children, who accompanied me both times to my appointments.
He regularly follows up with you afterwards, just to make sure you’re doing well and if you have any questions
Definitely recommend Bell Performance Therapy."

I would recommend the program of any department that wants to help their officers maintain their physical fitness, reduces stress levels and reduce health care costs.

I have been lifting/running for years and fortunately never had an injury a little ice and a few days off didn’t help until earlier this year when I hurt my back squatting.

Not only did this prevent me from training for an upcoming race, it also limited my every day movement and comfort. Nothing I had tried in the past worked and I became extremely frustrated and fearful this would hinder me for the foreseeable future.

I was then referred to work with Brandon and after a few weeks of physical therapy, I am stronger and more confident than I had been at my peak before injury.

Brandon was extremely focused and thorough in finding the root cause to my injury and then developing a training plan. Throughout he asked questions and did an amazing job of making me feel heard and understood. He also was able to explain in great detail the purpose the exercises, variations, force mechanics (I am a physics nerd), and was eager to answer any questions I had.

I could not recommend Bell Performance Therapy more, working Brandon was a pleasure!!

Dr. Bellman with Bell Performance Therapy is exactly what I needed after having partial knee replacements on both knees. Dr. Bellman strengthened my legs through various exercises that gave me the confidence to run again. I beat the time required for my work assessment by 13 seconds and completed other core exercises efficiently after training with Dr. Bellman. I have lost 17 pounds through Dr. Bellman's training and feel great. I highly recommend Bell Performance Therapy. Thank you Dr. Bellman.

I had been managing, and by that I mean ignoring, Achilles pain for nearly two years. I run ultra-marathons and had accepted the discomfort as my reward for running such high mileage.

I’m happy to say that with the help of Brandon I just completed a 100 mile race without any Achilles pain. He helped identify the specific muscles that needed strengthened, armed me with easy exercises to incorporate into my routine, and somehow convinced me to swap some running days for biking days. I really appreciated his approach of working with me instead of just telling me what to do, taking the time to explain the science behind what we were doing, and the added touch of checking in between appointments. I now feel much more prepared going into future training blocks.

I reached out to Brandon because I’ve had chronic back problems that were impairing my everyday activities. I was struggling to sleep through the night, exercise without pain and sit for extended periods of time. I had tried other forms of physical therapy before, without much success and considering I’m only in my late thirties I was frustrated with how uncomfortable I was on a daily basis. Brandon listened to me and did a thorough assessment and really valued my long term goals and made me feel like I didn’t have to give up doing CrossFit but helped me find ways to modify and strengthen my back. He provided exercises I could do on my own and what really set apart this company was that he checked in weekly to see my progress and also adjust my programming. He’s extremely knowledgable and truly wants to help you reach your goals and get your life back!

I started working with Brandon virtually this fall to increase my strength as a runner. I have always be diligent with the cardio but needed the insight and tools of how to effectively incorporate weight training. Brandon made workouts approachable with great visuals/videos and was always accessible. Goals shifted throughout our work together to help address energy imbalances and regain a regular menstrual cycle. Brandon was so knowledgeable and set excellent framework to reach my goals. It took the anxiety and fears away from wondering if I was doing too much, too little or losing my fitness. I trusted the process and ultimately regained a regular cycle while continuing to build strength. I highly recommend working with Brandon!

I began online training with Brandon during Covid and worked with him for a little over a year. During that time he helped me build a strong foundation for weightlifting and running. As someone without much of a weighlifting background, Brandon wrote a strength training program specifically tailored to me, and provided several resources to ensure I was able to peform the lifts with proper technique.

Under Brandons guidance, I was able to get stronger and complete my first half marathon! He provided the support and encouragement I needed, while making sure I was able to attain my goals in a safe manner. Great at communication and very personable, I would recommend Bellman Performan Therapy to anyone looking for a physical therapist, or someone to help them get stronger.

Bell Performance helped me with nagging shoulder pain while allowing me to continue with CrossFit during therapy. I was able to continue doing what I love and am now pain free. They’re very knowledgeable and the individual attention and focus is priceless. Highly recommend them vs these big chains that have a one size fits all approach.

Brandon was able to help me through a nagging injury I thought would never go away. He was professional and easy to talk to you. Really great experience and would highly recommend!

I worked with Brandon after experiencing significant discomfort and pain from a recurring shoulder injury. Not only was it impacting my ability to bench, it was impacting my life including majorly disrupting sleep. From the beginning, Brandon made sure to ask questions about my lifestyle and what types of activities I wanted to be able to get back to. I left with a clear plan and within a week, my pain was markedly reduced. He was patient and thorough in answering my questions and was up front about following the research and debunking random internet "facts” (things that are very important to me from a healthcare provider). During the time I was working with him on my shoulder, I strained my back pretty severely doing trap bar deadlifts. A random fluke but I was essentially immobile for 3 days. He worked with me through that too, addressing physiological and psychological impacts of working my way back to training. Even now that I am 99% recovered from both injuries, Brandon makes sure to check in every so often. He's a fun dude who happens to also be really smart and will absolutely help you get back on track after injury.
