Even though our main focus at Liquid Steel Biomechanics is helping people over 55 move better, feel stronger, and regain confidence in their bodies…
I still have a deep passion for working with young athletes.

There’s something special about their energy, their drive to improve, and their ability to adopt new movement patterns so quickly. They remind us what optimal movement really looks like — fluid, connected, and full of potential.

Working with young athletes keeps me sharp as a coach and constantly learning. It also gives incredible perspective on what we should all strive for as we age — not just strength, but efficient, pain-free movement that allows us to live fully.

I've been working with Arjun for nearly 2 years now and genuinely delighted with this next step for him. He is a young athlete who embodies dedication, discipline, and humility. Being part of his next journey and helping shape how he moves — now and for years to come — is a privilege.

At the end of the day, whether it’s a young athlete chasing performance or a 65-year-old chasing pain-free independence, the mission is the same:
To help people move better and live better.

If you would like to work with us, don't hesitate to pop a message regarding a free consultation.

Why over 55 year olds shouldn’t skip exercises like the Banded Crab Walk
(Even if they look a bit funny!)

When most people think about staying strong after 55, they focus on big muscles — arms, legs, chest…
But one of the most important areas to strengthen is the side of your hips — the muscles that control hip abduction (like your glute medius).

✅️ What is hip abduction?
It’s simply your ability to move your leg out to the side and stabilise your hips while you walk, climb stairs, get out of a chair, or balance on one leg.

Exercises like the Banded Crab Walk target exactly that — those side-hip muscles that help keep your pelvis steady and your knees and lower back happy.

✅️ Here’s why hip abduction strength is so important after 55:

1. Better balance & stability – Helps prevent falls and improves confidence when walking or turning quickly.

2. Reduced hip & knee pain – Strong side hips keep your legs aligned and take stress off your joints.

3. Easier everyday movement – From standing up, walking uphill, or stepping sideways, these muscles work behind the scenes in almost everything you do.

So next time you see someone shuffling sideways with a resistance band… they’re not just exercising — they’re future-proofing their movement.

Tip: Start slow, focus on good form, and feel the burn in the side of your glutes — that’s where the magic happens!

Not All of Us Are Bodybuilders

Counting reps in the gym can be helpful — it gives structure, guidance, and a sense of progress.
But somewhere along the way, many people start believing that exact rep amounts automatically means better results.

When we're working with someone — especially those over 55 — it’s not always about how many reps you do… it’s about how well you do them.

Because movement quality, body awareness, and understanding why you’re doing an exercise more often than not, matter more than chasing numbers.

A solid, well-controlled 8 reps will do far more for your body than a questionable 12 done with poor alignment or tension in the wrong places.

So next time you’re in the gym — don’t get lost in the numbers.
Slow down.
Feel the movement.
Connect to your body.

You’ll get far more out of your training when quality comes before quantity.

If you're interested in learning more about how and why your body moves the way it does...give us a shout. We're big on education, not only exercise.

You’ll often see us doing movements like these with our clients.

But here’s the why:

This kind of movement teaches your body how to coordinate and transfer load — just like you do when walking, climbing stairs, or catching your balance if you stumble.

It builds stability, balance, and control without putting you in risky positions.

The ribcage rotation helps you reconnect your upper and lower body, improving how your hips and spine move together.

And most importantly — it’s functional. It improves the exact patterns that keep you strong, steady, and confident in everyday life.

We don’t just train muscles — we train movement.
Because moving well means living well.

This is why we do what we do.

So many women feel lost, stuck, and unheard during menopause — unsure where to start, and often told to “just exercise” without any understanding of what their body is actually going through.

We get it.
We understand the physical changes, the hormonal shifts, the fatigue, and the frustration.
And we know that with the right guidance, compassion, and education, confidence and strength return — one step at a time.

If you’ve been putting it off because you think it’s “too late” or “too hard,” let this be your reminder:

It’s never too late to start feeling like you again.

Does your mind wonder when you're exercising?

It’s not just about moving your body — it’s about training your brain too.

So often people get stuck doing only isolated exercises, but the real magic happens when you challenge movements that make you think.

🧠 Exercises that require coordination, balance, and body awareness don’t just strengthen muscles — they boost cognitive function, improve focus, and help you connect better to how your body moves.

When you prioritise mindful, integrated movement, you’re not just getting stronger… you’re building a smarter, more resilient body and mind.

Don’t just work out — think while you move.
