KNEE pain stopping you from doing the things you enjoy?
You are not alone!

Hamstring strains and injury is more prevalent in males in the athletic domain but in females in the general population. Hamstring injury is a contributing factor to increasing knee pain, as the muscle gets weaker the joint load increases.

3 important factors you can address to help your knee pain;
1. Adequate hip/knee mobility
2. Good neuromuscular control (think how well the brain talks to the muscle you are trying to strengthen without compensating by using other muscles).2
3. Eccentric hamstring strength (i.e hamstring works as brakes at longer lengths).

A tailored program builds capacity, eases pain and gets you back doing what you want!

HEALTH IN LONGEVITY - GET STRONGER TO LIVE A BETTER LIFE!
Have you had a fall or have a fear of falling?

Grip strength and leg strengh are predictive of falls risk!
A 2024 study involving 3000+ seniors showed training grip and leg strength cut falls rate by 41%!!

Exercise 'leg' challenge #1
Perform as many 'squat wall slides' as you can in 30sec.

Exercise 'grip' challenge #2
Perform a dumbbell hold at shoulder height until fatigue with 1-2kg dumbbells.

The objective is to beat your own score each week- this way you know your strength (and longevity) is improving.
Progressive overload means;
Exercise 1 should aim to increase number of repetitions in 30sec.
Exercise 2 should aim to increase time (seconds) until failure.

Think 'Healthspan' not 'Lifespan' when it comes to increasing age!

HEALTH IN LONGEVITY! 🏥
Both lower limb strength and power decline with age. Fortunately, you can maintain these important qualities as you age, with the right exercise!
2 great exercises, use bodyweight resistance, (therefore don’t require equipment) and train important movement patterns used everyday!
1. The bodyweight squat
2. The countermovement jump
Note - even a small jump or attempting to move quickly (i.e power) will develop this quality, rather than having to jump to a certain height.

STRENGTH IS KEY! 🔑

‘You can’t fire a canon out of a canoe’

Strength provides the basis for stability, helping to improve balance and reduce falls risk!

Strength provides the framework for power development (i.e Force expressed quickly).

Have you had a thorough initial assessment? 🤔

Our initial assessment detects any asymmetrical patterns, with a goal of

As you age POWER is lost at a greater rate than STRENGTH!

Maintaining power is important for falls prevention, walking speed & quality of life!

Here are 2 home-based exercises to improve muscle power of the upper & lower body.

Like all exercises, these exercises should be progressed over time but are a good starting point in the POWER continuum!

1. Drop jump for lower body power!
2. Speed push-ups for upper body power!
