Few things that are better than a good shoulder crack👌

18/07/2026

Quad tendon pain wasn’t part of the Great North Run training plan… 😅

Instead of ignoring it or trying to “run through” the pain, I’ve been focusing on rehab while keeping my training progressing.

These are the 3 exercises I’m currently using to help manage my symptoms:
🏃 Isometric holds
🏃 Step Downs
🏃 Reverse Nordics

Everyone’s knee pain is different, so what works for me may not be right for everyone. If your pain is persistent or getting worse, it’s worth getting assessed by a healthcare professional.

Have you ever had quad tendon pain while running? Let me know below 👇

Lauren struggles with Shin pain when running, so come with us to do some rehab.

02/06/2026

POV: You’re 6 months post left tibia/ankle fracture and your physio introduces reformer rehab to rebuild ankle stability, control and confidence.

This stage is all about restoring trust in the ankle again —slow, controlled loading before returning to running, jumping or sport.

Lydia working on inner range quad control following ACL surgery.

This focuses on rebuilding the quad’s ability to control the final part of knee extension, a key part of restoring confidence, strength and stability after ACL reconstruction.

Small details. Big impact in rehab.

Shoulder stability for rugby 🏉

Working with a client who has previously had a shoulder dislocation and surgery to stabilise it, but still feels symptoms with extended use and higher load rugby demands.

Here we’re using a hand-off style movement with an earthquake band and weight to challenge shoulder control in a rugby specific position.

The unstable load forces the shoulder to stay strong, controlled, and reactive. Helping build confidence for contact, fending, tackling, and absorbing force on the pitch.

Controlled chaos — exactly what rugby shoulders need.

A quick check-in with today to review a ni**le that’s been bothering him during MMA training.

He had a few concerns around overtraining, tendon health, and how best to manage his training load over the next few weeks.

We used a quick ultrasound assessment to get a clearer picture of the tendon and help guide the best plan moving forward — not just guessing, but making decisions based on what we can see clinically.

The goal now is to keep him training where possible, manage volume properly, and avoid a small issue becoming a bigger one.
