Just finished a big race?
Now is not the time to prove your fitness.

A lot of post-event injuries happen because runners jump straight back into heavy training.

Your body gets stronger during recovery — not during the race itself.
That repair process (tissue adaptation) only works if you give it time.

Pulling back for a week or two is smart training.
You can do it.

Movement is a life philosophy for an 87-year-old runner

I really recommend you take 5 min to watch this short video.

Why do you run?

We all want longevity without compromising on quality of life. This 87-year-old achieves both with a daily running habit

The Best Electric Mountain Bikes!

E MTBS are helping more people ride a whole lot more than ever before. Instead of putting a hilly ride in the “too hard” basket and doing nothing, E Bikes are allowing lots of people to explore new trails and build more fitness.

Who has given one of these a go, and what is your view on electric mountain bikes?

A glorious swooping downhill glide on one of these electric mountain bikes will make you feel like a kid again.

Stop injuries before they happen

The single biggest factor that causes injuries in runners is doing too much too soon. The second biggest factor is your biomechanics (running technique).

If you improve your running technique, you are therefore less likely to get injured.

A running-specific biomechanical assessment can be a real eye-opener.

Something as simple as a stiff ankle or a tight hamstring for example, can change the way you move.

A proper biomechanical screening test will help to identify any potential problem areas in your body, allowing you to focus your rehabilitation plan on sorting them out.
