I completed my Masters of Exercise Science in 2020 for the same reason - having a robust knowledge of everything an athlete or runner does as part of their training means that I am the most equipped to help them get back to doing what they love after injury! ✌🏼

I always hear this debate between formal learning and experience. I believe years of experience backed by formal knowledge is the winning combo. I’ve been working with runners for over 10 years, but is always been from an injury perspective. Going deeper into the coaching/training side just adds another layer for me.

I used to work in clinic 6 days a week and wonder why my business struggled to grow.

Now I have 2 dedicated business days to split between running both and and I feel like I don’t have enough time still!

If we hurt our knee or shoulder, we intuitively know that we need to strengthen it to ensure high quality of life and function of the joint.

So why do we treat the neck differently? The spine is often seen as a fragile area instead of the robust structure it is. Building strength and endurance in the neck is super important.

After my work in rugby and with combat athletes, I’ve done a deep dive into neck strength, particularly around flexion-to-extension strength ratios and I’ll be putting up some info and exercises soon!

End range knees over toes and depth jumps on a super inflamed patella tendon? Na I’ve got no idea why your knee won’t calm down 🤷🏻‍♂️😂

When you are in a high performance setting, everyone is training hard, everyone is training a lot. So the answer to getting better is often identifying what is holding you back.

I’ve had had runners smashing 150km weeks thinking an extra threshold session is the answer, but they couldn’t do 12 bodyweight calf raises.

Rugby players who could squat 140kgs but couldn’t hold a 20 second side plank wondering why their lower back is always sore.

Identifying roadblocks will go a lot further than just throwing more weight or more volume at things.

Sandra, I’m just trying to help you move pain free, I’m not qualified to deal with 30 years of generational trauma. Please go see someone.

Does every other allied health practitioner also feel like a part time therapist?
