We are going to miss this guy!

We are into week 2 of Joel not being around the clinic, and it just feels like he’s taking a break and will be back next week.

Joel brought so much fun and laughter to our clinic, dedication to his profession and patients and a sense of “she’ll be right” positivity that never got old.

Joel started his career with us as a new grad from uni. A fresh faced young man that had a lot to learn, but the grit and determination to forge ahead with a new and difficult technique to learn. Almost 8 years later, Joel has made such a huge impact on our community. He will be greatly missed.

We wish you safe travels traveling the globe for the next 18 months. Don’t be a stranger 💚 😊

Did you know you are still paying GST on Exercise Physiology?! There is no GST on all other Medicare recognised allied health services. Please take a second to sign this petition to ask that EP is brought in line with similar services and made GST exempt. This will make EP services more accessible and affordable to more Aussies!

If you want to know how well your "engine" is actually running, there’s one number that tells a much bigger story than the scale ever could; VO2 Max.
Think of it as the ultimate measure of your body’s horsepower. It is the maximum amount of oxygen you can utilize during intense exercise, and it’s a massive indicator of both performance and long-term health.

VO2 Max begins to decline by about 10% per decade after age 30. If you aren't actively maintaining it, you’re essentially letting your engine lose efficiency year over year.
The good news? It’s a metric you can actually move. Improving your score doesn't just make you "fitter"- it makes daily life feel easier because your body becomes a more efficient machine. It’s one of the strongest predictors we have for a long life.

How to Check Your Stats you may ask? You can estimate yours right now!
Most smart watches provide a solid estimate based on your heart rate and pace during walks or runs
OR
The Cooper Test: A classic 12-minute "all-out" run.

Don’t sweat it if your initial number is lower than you’d like. The best part about VO2 Max is that your body is remarkably good at adapting when you give it the right stimulus.

What is your VO2 Max?

How strong are your legs??

Dylan is showing a text book sit to stand controlling the entire movement.

Do you struggle getting out of a chair or noticed that your legs are feeling heavier than usual?

Our exercise physiologists are able to prescribe exercises that will improve and maintain leg strength!

How is your reaction time?

Try getting someone to drop a 30cm ruler and catching it.
