Balance isn’t optional — it’s a superpower 🦸‍♂️⚖️
The JEMS BALANCE 1 video shows that balance is never just standing still. Your body is always making tiny adjustments to stay upright and move efficiently.
For runners, it means steadier strides and fewer injuries. For older adults, it keeps you mobile, confident, and ready for anything life throws your way.
Looks simple. Feels tricky. Works like magic.

Watch the video here ⬇️

Staying soft is the key to balance. When our balance is threatened, we often stiffen, but this tends to decrease our ability to adapt to balance fluctuations...

Returning to running after injury or a long lay off? Increase your chances of a successful return to running by following a structured graduated programme. Here’s an example of one I often recommend, by Mike James The Endurance Physio

Running injury is rarely down to one single thing! It’s important to see the bigger picture 🏃🏻

31/01/2026

🧐🏃‍♂️🏃🏻For anyone who’s been to Trust Physio… you’ll know I ask a LOT of questions 😅

Not questions for questions’ sake.
Not because I’m nosey (promise!).

But because I’m genuinely curious.

When it comes to running injuries, or let’s be honest any injury, there’s rarely just *one* cause. It’s usually a mix of things — training load, recovery, footwear, strength, previous injuries, stress, sleep… the list goes on. Pain and injuries are **multi-factorial**, which means if we only treat the sore bit, we’re probably missing the bigger picture.

I ask questions to understand the *why* behind the injury — so treatment is more effective, recovery is smoother, and most importantly, we reduce the risk of it coming back.

The goal isn’t just to get you better…
It’s to **get you better and keep you better **🏃‍♀️🏃‍♂️🏃🏻🏃🏼‍♀️🏃🏻🏃‍♂️

Have a look at the post above, where I’ve shared an excellent infographic from RunningPhysio.

"Persistent pain is common and commonly misunderstood" - the new tag line for Flippin' Pain

Why we share Flippin’ Pain 💡

Flippin’ Pain is a brilliant, evidence-based resource that helps make sense of persistent pain — especially when scans are clear or things don’t feel like they’re “healing”.

It explains why pain doesn’t always mean damage, how the nervous system can become over-protective, and how understanding pain can reduce fear, rebuild confidence in movement, and support recovery.

If pain has been holding you back from living the life you want, this is a really powerful place to start 👇

Here’s a repost due to an influx of injuries I’m seeing that are potentially linked to new year changes of job, circumstance etc that has dramatically affected the athletes sleep.

This study has been popular in recent times due to it stating that there is a 51% increased risk of injury for those endurance athletes sleeping less than 7 hours per day for the last two weeks.

I’ve spoken before about the number of hours being less important than potentially the trend of “less hours than is normal for you”.

But the interesting thing I want to highlight is the lag period between sleep deficit and sustaining an injury.

So many of us over the coming holiday month will experience reduced sleep due to shift work, travel, parties and commitments, family and children etc….our natural tactic when sleep has been disturbed is to play catch up with training and increased training over the following weeks.

Be careful and bear in mind that this may be the time we are most susceptible and therefore may need to be smart and considered in the training / preparation we do during this period.

🏃🏻🏃‍♂️🏃🏼‍♀️This may be of interest to runners out there. Mike James The Endurance Physio is a highly experienced physio who has spent a lot of his career working with endurance athletes. If you want to know more about how to use a walk/run strategy as part of your training I can highly recommend Mike’s webinars.

See you there!

💻NEW WEBINAR🏃🏻🏃🏻‍♀️👣

Despite walk / run strategies being widely accepted in rehab and early stage run planning, we often neglect them in training plans and race strategies. Yet, most runners don’t struggle because of fitness, the struggle because they manage their energy poorly.

This 90-minute live webinar and Q&A will teach you how to use walk/run strategically, confidently, and without guilt — so you finish stronger, hurt less, and race smarter.

Whether you’re simply looking to extend your run tolerance, training for your first ultra or your tenth 100-miler, this session will change how you pace forever.
