Last week our team had the privilege of chatting with students at Maryborough State High School about the exciting career opportunities available in allied health 👏

Jonas, our Clinic Manager and Exercise Physiologist, Madi, our Occupational Therapist, and Chloe, our Dietitian, shared insights into their roles and the different pathways to get into each profession 🎓💼

It was awesome to see so much curiosity and engagement from the students as they explored how they can turn their interests into meaningful careers helping others 💚

Thanks for having us, Maryborough State High, we loved being part of the conversation! ✨

It is with a heavy heart that we farewell Henri as he departs Ascend to relocate to the Sunshine Coast 🌊☀️

Some of you may remember when Henri first joined us as a bright-eyed and bushy-tailed student way back in 2023 🌱 Since joining the team as a fully fledged Exercise Physiologist in March of 2024, Henri has become a beloved and indispensable member of our team 💚

In fact, Henri was the winner of the inaugural Ascend MVP 🏆, and coiner of the honorary position of “Ascend Allower General” (It’s a long story) 👑

Henri has helped many people and created cherished moments with both staff and clients alike over the past 2 years, and will be sorely missed 🥲

Kiitos! 🇫🇮 And good luck on your next chapter 🚀✨

Question Time with Jess 🎥💬

Exercise Physiology isn’t just lifting weights, it’s about building confidence everywhere.

Jess has been working with Ascend for 5 years, in the gym, her home, and in the community - turning everyday tasks into real wins 🙌

From workouts 💪 to washing the dishes 🧼 to filling up the car ⛽… it all counts.

Because the goal isn’t just to exercise… it’s to live better 💥

Question time with Chris, one of the most consistent members at and an all-round legend

He’s been working with us for the past 5 years and the progress speaks for itself 🙌

(Poor Mikey taking his second hit of the week 😂)

Only asking the most important questions around here. Would you agree with Jess?

PART 5 — Rules & Cues 🏋️‍♂️

In para powerlifting, there are a few key commands from the referee you need to follow during your lift. Listening for these cues is essential for a successful attempt.

Here’s the basic sequence:

1️⃣ Wait for the “START” command
Once the bar is lifted out and held steady with arms extended, the referee will give the START call. Only then can the lift begin.

2️⃣ Lower the bar to your chest
Bring the weight down under control.

3️⃣ Pause on the chest
The bar must come to a clear pause on the chest before you press. No bouncing.

4️⃣ Press the bar to full elbow extension

5️⃣ Wait for the “RACK” command
Once the bar is steady at the top again, the referee will give the RACK call before you return the bar to the rack.

📌 If you’d like to read more about official rules and regulations, check out the Para Powerlifting Australia / WPPO guidelines online.
📎 There’s also a direct link in the Facebook event group once you register, so you can access everything you need before comp day.
