Coming back from a back injury? But you’re afraid of returning to exercise because you don’t want to re-injure your back? If this sounds familiar, you’re not on your own.. this is very common and a natural thing. It is understandable after having back pain for a few weeks or months that your thought process is more concentrated on not wanting that back pain to come back... EVER! Returning to exercise can be quite daunting, therefore it is advised that you introduce gentle e...xercises to start with, exercises such as gentle swimming, walking on the treadmill, or even just starting with some gentle dynamic stretches. Whatever level you are at, it is important to start off with light exercises so you can get that confidence back. Find what works best for you, but one thing to take note of... general Exercise is GOOD for your back as long as you ease back into it gradually 👍😊

The importance of CORE strength training!
Wow, the first person to run a marathon in under 2 hours! Eliud Kipchoge! And he has his Physiotherapist to thank for adding in some important core exercises into his training:
“Kipchoge is incorporating more strength work into his training, particularly core stability exercises, which he feels have made him a better athlete. 'We are doing all sorts of exercises, drills and strength work,' he says. 'A difference to my Breaking2 trai...ning is the introduction of two exercise workouts a week to strengthen my core stability. My physio introduced them in the countdown to the 2018 Berlin Marathon and I really feel the benefit. I now feel less strain on the hamstrings and with a stronger core this makes me less vulnerable to injuries.” Kipchoge has now gone one to run a Sub 2 hour marathon!!!
🏃‍♂️ 💪🏻 along with insane cardio and muscular endurance, thinking outside the box and adding in Core strength training can make help make all the difference!

Ahead of Mental health awareness day tomorrow, here are 10 tips to looking after your mental health. Mental health isn’t just linked to people suffering from depression, it is a way of life for everybody. Just like we exercise to keep our body physically fit and healthy, we can also work on things to keep our mind healthy too. There are always people who have different levels of physical fitness, and likewise there will be people who have different levels of mental health. That is why there isn’t just one approach to helping improve your mental health, it should be tailored to what works best for YOU. Don’t hide your feelings, express who you are and do things in life that will benefit YOU ❤️ x

Progressively loading your joints will strengthen the tissue around the joint in a way that will mean a higher engagement of the muscles and tendons that help to stabilise the shoulder. Then moving onto a combination of loading and movements will further enhance the stability around the joint during more dynamic exercises.👍👍
