I have had lots of questions from friends and patients lately about what exercise I’m doing right now—so here’s the real-life version, not the highlight reel šŸ‘‡

I’m a big believer that our training should evolve with us. What served you at 25 might not serve you at 45… and that’s not failure, that’s awareness.

These days, my focus looks like this:
✨ 3–4 days of resistance training
Think moderate loads, big muscle groups, and training for longevity, not ego. Also being mindful of positions that don’t love my back.
šŸ”„ Short, sharp HIIT
2 x 5 minutes (30 sec hard / 30 sec easy) on the air bike or stepper. Enough to challenge me… not wreck me. And my VO2 max is now up to 60mg/L- the highest it's been in a while!
šŸš¶ā€ā™€ļø Daily walks
No step targets. No pressure. Just moving, breathing, and usually chasing a sunrise or sunset.
šŸ§–ā€ā™€ļø Sauna 2–3x/week
Do I fully buy into the benefits? Jury’s still out šŸ˜… But I keep going back… so take from that what you will.
šŸŠā€ā™€ļø Occasional swim
Not for fitness. Just because it feels good.
And here’s the big one…
After 30+ years of long-distance running—I don’t really do it anymore. And surprisingly… I don’t miss it.
My 20s and 30s? Very different story. Lots of HIIT, lots of fast running, lot of netball and very little recovery. Great for my mind at the time… not so great for my joints.

Now at 41 (and as an Exercise Physiologist), my goal is simple:
Train in a way that supports my body long term—not just pushes it short term.

Because the best program isn’t the hardest one…�…it’s the one you can continue to complete allowing improvements in strength and fitness without the risk of injury.

Curious—has your training changed over the years too?

There's a few different options when looking at attending KB Exercise Physiology....

- 1:1 individual consultations where I provide a set exercise program utilising our range of equipment within the studio (can also be 1:2 shared sessions)- focused on your health needs/goals

- home program design- full comprehensive initial assessment (often discussing diagnostic imaging/blood tests and follow up with GO or specialist as required) and individualised home program designed focusing on your health needs and goals.

- group exercise classes! My favourite! Lots of fun- lots of group members- becoming active and healthy together. Exercises can be modified according to individual injury/goal. Exercise classes run on a daily basis. šŸ’œ

It’s been incredible to watch this patient grow from a 7-year-old child into a strong, confident 14-year-old. I couldn’t be prouder of him!

He hit a 25kg bench press this week and both unassisted and band-assisted chin-ups— his progress has been truly inspiring.

Over the past 7 years, he’s shown up week after week, putting in the effort during his exercise physiology sessions. And a huge shoutout to his mum as well—your dedication in supporting him every step of the way has made such a difference.

All that hard work has paid off with impressive strength gains and fantastic aerobic fitness. It’s a great reminder that teenagers don’t need to lift super heavy loads to build muscle—consistent effort, steady progression, and functional movement are what really drive lasting results.

The rapid rise in the use of GLP-1 weight-loss medications in Australia is raising serious concerns.

While effective for weight loss and specific chronic disease management, up to 40% of the loss may come from lean muscle – increasing the risk of frailty and long-term harm.

ESSA CEO and Accredited Exercise Physiologist, Katie Lyndon said these medications must be used carefully. ESSA is calling on the Federal Government to mandate a referral to an Accredited Exercise Physiologist at the point of prescription.

"Skeletal muscle plays a critical role in strength, mobility and metabolic health. For older Australians or those living with chronic disease, rapid muscle loss without structured exercise support may accelerate frailty - increasing the risk of falls, loss of independence and serious decline in quality of life," Katie said.
