You can be strong and still get injured! 🤕
Ever smash your lifts fresh but crumble halfway through the workout? Its not just fatigue its control and mobility breaking down 💤

In sports like Hyrox, CrossFit, or Weightlifting, fatigue changes everything:

• Your movement patterns start to break down
• You lose positional control
• Your mobility deficits get exposed 😬

That’s when injuries tend to happen, not because you’re weak, but because your foundational control can’t keep up with the load or demands, leading to reduced capacity and fatigue.

Building true resilience means developing:
✅ Foundational control (your ability to move well through range)
✅ Mobility where it counts
✅ Strength that lasts beyond the first few reps

Getting stronger is soo important, but staying in control under fatigue is where performance and injury prevention meet 💪

Mobility and control work aren’t “boring extras” they’re your insurance policy against injury 🤗

Dealing with a symptomatic disc bulge can be challenging, even as a physio ☺️ Here’s what I personally did to support my recovery, stay functional, and gradually get back to full strength 🥰👌

Disc bulge recovery isn’t linear — but it is possible! 🥳

I’m finally back to moving without discomfort and 'slowly' rebuilding my strength and loads in the gym 🏋️‍♀️

👉 Disc bulges are actually NORMAL — they can show up in people without any pain at all. The best part - they can get better 👏

The key wasn’t avoiding movement…
It was about finding the right kind of movement, at the right time. 👌

Trust the process, stay patient. Honour and respect what your body can do today 💪

Meals I've been enjoying whilst in a calorie deficit 😋 the better you get at incorporating foods you enjoy within your calories and macros, the more consistent you'll be 😍

After a period of neglecting my nutrition and comfort eating 🙊 it's been nice to finally be down a stone 🥳 relapses are common and are bound to happen in life, especially when we face difficult periods in our lives. My trigger was caring for a loved one and navigating their loss ❤️‍🩹

The key is to not let the setback completely derail your goals and progress and to get back on it as soon as your ready 🤗 ✨️

Cognitive Functional Therapy 3 day workshop completed over this weekend in london ✔️

Cognitive functional therapy is a person-centred behavioural approach for individualising the management of disabling lower back pain ☺️

This approach has evolved within clinical practice, it is informed by people living with pain, and it is supported by scientific evidence 🤓

Looking forward to developing my skills in this area 💖

As January comes to an end, I have a few professional development opportunities in the pipeline 😍

Today I headed to Sheffield University to start my practice educator course. This is to allow me to facilitate and support the learning of students whilst they join us on placements. 🌟 🤩 ⭐️

Students require a named practice educator (a registered health professional) at every placement to guide and support their period of learning.

Looking forward to help guide and develop our future Physiotherapists 😀 🙌 💙

Successfull diagnosis and escalation of care ✔️ client case story ⬇️👀

5-6 weeks ago a client attended clinic following a traumatic twisting knee injury whilst playing football. They presented with difficultly weight bearing, limited knee range of movement and instability.

A hands on clinical assessment of the knee structures highlighted increased laxity when stressing the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) and medial collateral ligaments (MCL).

An early knee exercise program was commenced with an urgent letter sent to the clients GP practice highlighting my concerns of a suspected ACL and MCL injury and consideration of investigation with othopaedic opinion. A subsequent urgent MRI was completed identifying an ACL rupture and MCL high grade sprain followed by an onward referral to an orthopaedic surgeon.

The clients care was escalated following findings from a clinical assessment helping with appropriate onward management and care.

The client now proceeds with progressive rehabilitation whilst awaiting surgery.

Following my previous post on Wednesday the left knee is the injured knee 👌

An example of a glutes triset 🔥 Exercises focusing on developing the glute and hamstring muscles. A triset is 3 consecutive exercises with no rest. Making them ideal for a short but efficient workout if you're limited on time ⏲️

All movements focus on hip extension. The primary hip extensors are the glutes and hamstrings.

Weak hip extensors can have an impact on walking patterns, which may cause a person to take a smaller stride and at a slower speed to allow time for stabilisation.

Weak hip extensors can also happen if people sit for extended periods of time. Generally hip flexors may become tight, and the posterior chain becomes less engaged.

Unless...☝️

a person reduces their time spent sedentary by maintaining or increasing a physically active lifestyle by incorporating posterior chain training! 🔥

Can you tell which knee is injured?

This is not a diagnostic assessment of 'specific injury' but a clinical observation of how a knees condition may present following an injury.

To give you a clue... 🤔

It is quite common that following traumatic injury, we will notice muscle atrophy, reduced muscle mass and power.
So with that, which knee do you think is affected?

Polite notice 🙏

Please do let me know in advance (atleast) 24hrs if you need to cancel your appointments. It is no trouble and I understand that life happens but..

Please respect my business 🫶

Yes, I'm an independent self employed Physiotherapist and I work from a home environment. That does not mean to say you disrespect my business like it isn't one.

I have overheads, insurances, professional memberships and more, that I have to cover.

I dedicate my spare time and efforts to my business alongside a full time job because I want to help people. Those appointments could go to others with an increased need of help. Please with all do respect. Respect the services you choose to use. 🤗

So,
if you can't attend cancel.
If you need to rearrange, no problem.
If your running late let me know.

Thank you so much 🙏 💖

The single leg stance assessment is a tool used for assessing balance, stability, hip abductor weakness and / or hip dysfunction.

This test alone cannot diagnose hip conditions but used in combination with other tests is useful for reviewing pelvic stability and functional weaknesses 😁

Do you struggle with your balance and wonder why? 🤔 contact us today 📲
