Caution: Always consult your physician before starting a new fitness

program. Always check equipment for worn or damaged parts before each
use and do not use if damaged. Start stretching program by warming-up muscles
and massaging out knots with BamBalls. Be sure to do exercises properly and stay
hydrated for best results. Always follow proper positioning as outlined in this guide.
BAM Motion Founder, Bobby Aldridge

After three decades of intense athletic
and physical training, having earned
a Bachelors degree in Exercise
and Sports Science, and advanced
certifications in Egoscues postural
alignment, sport specific methodology,
and biomechanics, I developed
BAM, the Bobby Aldridge Method.
BAMMotions patented products
enables one to heal, strengthen,
lengthen and function optimally with
measurable, maintainable results.
Change happens in an instant - BAM, just like that!

Since retiring from the NFL, it is

imperative that I combine flexibility
and mobility with strength training.
To that end, I use the BAM Essential
backpack as part of my physical
routine. As a result, I feel amazing
and enjoy playing sports, pain- and
injury-free, no matter how great
the demand I put on my body.
