Really proud of how well Paul (Chuck) has recovered from bicep rupture surgery and knee problems. It's been a pleasure to provide physio and strength and conditioning services to get him fit for this epic fund raising challenge!!

A pair of life-long friends are paddleboarding across England to raise awareness about su***de prevention – a subject close to one of their hearts.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!!

Thought I'd share a little something from my personal life/hobby. It's not something professionals do very often as we tend to become what people need us to be for their needs...but it's Christmas and I wanted to say thank you for the support and wish you all the best! 😀

Had some time this morning, so off to do my first parkrun in a while (usually have to go earlier so I've cooled down in time for my clients! Ha)

Such a great approach to help people get active. I've done similar with stroke rehab in the past, and it was great fun.

Want to learn about dislocations?

Take a look at the blog post I wrote for Colchester Physiotherapy and Sports Injury Clinic

Back to blog What are the differences between traumatic and non-traumatic dislocations? Posted on 5th October 2022 at 16:49 By Carl Green In the last post we looked at strains and sprains. In this fourth post of my musculoskeletal conditions series we are going to be summarising the key informati...

This study published in Exercise and Sports Sciences Reviews proposes the beneficial effects of exercise are in part mediated through the prevention and elimination of senescent cells.

Exercise counters multiple forms of age-related molecular damage that initiate the senescence program and activates immune cells responsible for senescent cell clearance. Preclinical and clinical evidence for exercise as a senescence-targeting therapy and areas needing further investigation are discussed.Read the full text: https://fal.cn/3tgtz

Morning all!!

I hope you all enjoyed the extra hour in bed.

I decided to finish off some changes to my website instead, so heres a heads up that the "Online Stroke Rehab Group" page looks a little different and some of the navigation buttons have changed.

I've included a section about my free Online Stroke Rehab: Fitness 4 Life Physio and Health Coaching Facebook support group, and tried to make the whole page better for new visitors to my website.

Any feedback welcome on here or private message me etc.

Cheers and I'll see those who attend the main online stroke rehab group sessions on Thursday, along with a few new faces!

"People of all ages and abilities who regularly participate in resistance exercise reduce risk of numerous diseases, improve quality of life and reduce mortality."

Great infographic from ACSM that summarizes the benefits of resistance training as part of a complete exercise program. ALSO, ACSM's Complete Guide to Fitness & Health, 2nd edition has an entire chapter devoted to muscular fitness, including sample programs and pictures/explanations of exercises.

Updated/outdated opinions on "good and bad posture" for health (although I believe there is more relevance to body position and biomechanics when thinking about performance).

A while ago I completed specialist training in chronic pain management with a world leading physio and professor Peter O'Sullivan. He has made me aware of an article he recently published. Here it is...

We’ve all been told our whole lives we need ‘good’ posture: sit up straight, stand straight with shoulders back, and lift by bending the knees. It turns out there’s really no evidence for that advice.

Our Story

I started out as a gym instructor and personal trainer in 2002. I then completed additional qualifications in coaching, Boxercise, sports injuries, sports massage, clinical personal fitness training, and achieved a 1st class Sports Science and Human Biology degree (incl. nutrition and obesity). I went into leisure management, and lectured in sports and exercise, but soon missed helping clients achieve their goals. This led me to further study at the University of East Anglia on their highly competitive Masters degree course in Physiotherapy, which included over 1000 hours clinical placement at Ipswich Hospital.

Since qualifying as a Physiotherapist in 2012, I have specialised in the assessment, treatment and prevention of musculoskeletal conditions and been able to help thousands of people in occupational health, NHS and private environments. I have completed significant evidence based post graduate training in running and sports injuries, strength and conditioning, manual therapy, biomechanics, and psychology courses from world leading and local physiotherapists and consultants. I am currently employed part time as a Senior Physiotherapist, seeing a varied caseload, liaising with specialists, and supporting student physios and junior colleagues.

I set up Fitness 4 Life Physio to allow me to further pursue my clinical interests, utilise all my skills, and offer a professional service for my clients physio and fitness needs. I also deliver local stroke rehabilitation classes linked to the Stroke Association, and have an evidence based interest in nutrition (no fads).

I play for Felixstowe Rugby Union Football Club, run with my dog and parkruns, train in the gym, and snowboard. I have run a half marathon in 1hr 38mins at 95kg, rowed a marathon, played most sports and trained at a Muay Thai Boxing camp in Thailand. I have also suffered and overcome a range of injuries, chronic pain and surgery. I truly understand the effects that exercise, pain and dysfunction have on the mind and body, from both a professional and patient perspective.
