Running tip - Service Your Body!

You service your car, you replace your shoes, but many neglect to service their body in the absence of injury. This is where a Myotherapist or Remedial Massage Therapist is an amazing person to have at your disposal. Utilize them as part of your recovery and body management.

TAPER TIPS 👇

Melbourne Marathon Festival isn't far away and no doubt many will be having tantrums....

Frequency will either stay or slightly reduce, volume should reduce but keep some intensity to keep the system firing and primed come race day.

To help...book your pre-event massage with Alan Shields at Thrive Sports Medicine too 💯

Taper should freshen you up, helping make your feel ready to go!

Whether it be or some other event the same principles apply.

Oh and just because you drop your training a bit, it doen't mean cut your nutrition! KEEP FUELING 🔥

💥 HIP PAIN 💥 ?

This ones for you!
LATERAL HIP REHAB PROGRESSIONS 🔥⬇️

Here Physio Min Bae shows a few exercise progressions that we like to use to gradually load the lateral (outer) hip. Start with the variation that feels appropriate for your current capacity, and progress the range of motion, resistance, or time as your strength and control improve.

*1. Wall Ball Isometric Push - 2 x10secs*
Push your outside knee into the ball and hold. This is a simple way to begin loading the lateral hip with minimal movement

*2. Modified Clam Shell - 2x12*
This is a great exercise to load the bottom hip. Drive the bottom knee down into the ground and push the hips up and forward.

*3. Side Plank With Leg Lifts *
Hold a strong side plank while lifting the top leg up & down. This challenges the lateral hip while also developing trunk & pelvic stability.

*4. Bench Side Bends - 2x12 *
Lower your hip toward the floor and drive up to return to the starting position. An excellent way of not only challenging the lateral hip but loading the trunk muscles through range

As always we recommend getting your individual problem assessed so the most appropriate treatment plan can be put in place!
