Ran the today.

I’ve had my fair share of setbacks, but I’ve learnt that rehabilitation isn’t just about fixing what’s injured. It’s about building capacity, adaptability and giving your body more options.

Options to move, breathe, produce force, tolerate load and regulate.

You don’t have to be injury-free to live an active life. You need to give your body the stimulus and training to adapt to your goals so you can do what you love.

Struggling with Achilles pain or tendinopathy? 🦶

Your calf isn’t the only muscle that matters!

The intrinsic foot muscles help support the foot, improve load distribution, and contribute to how effectively you use your calf during walking, running and jumping.

Strengthening these small but important muscles can help offload the Achilles tendon and improve functional calf muscle use, making them a valuable part of a comprehensive Achilles rehabilitation program.

The goal? Build a stronger, more resilient foot and ankle that can handle the demands of everyday life and sport. 💪

Remember: effective Achilles rehab also requires progressive tendon loading tailored to your symptoms and capacity.

Exercises I Wish I Knew 10 Years Ago — EP. 1 💪

What if your tight muscles aren’t actually tight… but weak?

Sometimes, that feeling of tightness is your body’s way of telling you it needs more strength and control — not just more stretching.

In this series, I’m sharing the exercises and concepts I wish I’d understood earlier in my physio career.

🎯 The goal? Stop chasing tightness and start building strength, control and better movement.

LET’S FINALLY FIX THIS — PART 3

If you’ve been doing the “right” exercises but your back still isn’t getting better, maybe the problem isn’t the exercise.

Maybe it’s how you’re moving.

In Part 3, we’re starting to introduce new functional movement patterns — teaching the body to share the load instead of constantly relying on the same structures.

Because your lower back doesn’t exist in isolation.

Your hips, pelvis, trunk and shoulders all need to contribute.

The goal isn’t to avoid loading your back.

It’s to give your body more options for how it handles load.

This is where we start changing the blueprint.

Part 3 of Let’s Finally Fix This.

Follow along — we’re building this from the ground up.

LET’S FINALLY FIX THIS — PART 2 | LOWER BACK

Your lower back might not need more stretching.

Sometimes the problem is that the rest of your spine isn’t moving enough, leaving the lower back to do too much of the work.

Think of your spine like the mast of a sailing ship ⛵️

If the sails aren’t working properly, the mast has to take more of the load.

This week we’re working on getting those “sails” moving — improving extension through the spine before we start putting that movement into more functional exercises.

Try this simple exercise daily and save it so you can come back to it.

Part 3 coming next week.

LET’S FINALLY FIX THIS — PART 1

If your lower back keeps getting sore, you might be focusing on the wrong thing.

In this series, we’re going to break down why backs keep getting irritated, what might actually be driving it, and what you can do about it.

This week: the lower back as a hinge.

We’re starting with one simple exercise to work on spinal extension and lay the groundwork for what’s coming next.

Our exercise physiologist Sophie explains that weight‑loss medications can reduce appetite, but they can also reduce the stimulus your body needs to maintain lean muscle. When muscle drops, strength, bone density and metabolic health can drop with it. Targeted strength training helps preserve the structures that keep you well.
