Back pain: the lifting facts
——————————————————————
I am starting a series of topics around back pain as this is a relevant area in every day life. I hope to achieve a better understanding for all in the care and rehab for any potential back pain.

Please comment or DM with any other areas you would like discussing.

Rate of force development
——————————————————————
This term is coined to describe peak force vs peak time ie how the quickest rate you can produce max force?

This as important aspect in power production (force x velocity OR work/time).

In therapy practice these terms and aspects of training are rarely addressed. Which is bemusing when you want someone to return to contact sport or activities which require ⬆️ROFD. This lays a hand in 'impulse' especially in the initial stages of Fx development.

It is important to aware of applying these modes of training with appropriate understanding of resistance used and sets/reps/rest management; to prevent reinjury or overtraining.

Awareness around the subject is a great way for s&c coaches to link in with therapists. I will continue to put more posts around key strengthening principles which should be endorsed globally in he rehab setting.

Foot care part 1
——————————————————————
We're on our feet everyday. The reason we can stand, run, jump, and balance.

I think it is important to raise awareness in injury and issues that may occur. If the problem is recognised early then it is easier to amend.

This post will identify and a follow up will illustrate exercises.

Ankle instability
——————————————————————
A common problem in all ages and athletic populations. All minor sprains heal appear to heal with no intervention. However under the skin there are many changes. These changes can lead to thickening, ⬇️ ROM, ⬇️strength, and ⬇️proprioception/balance.

The importance of understanding these problems and addressing them correctly. Therefore preventing ongoing injury, ⬇️ performance, and possible surgery in later years.

Neural fatigue
————————————————————
We always think of extent fatigued muscles can reach. This can occur even with 'light' training. We forget that our muscles are innervated by nerves.

An accumulation of lifestyle factors, nutrition and rest can cause 'burn out'. Nerves require attention sooner rather than later.

Highlighted is the importance of adequate tree recovery and alternating intensity of sessions, even if it is working different muscle groups. The brain is required for any work out demand.

Metabolism 🫀🫁🧠
———————————————
A physiological process which ⬆️ glycogen storage and systems work together to ⬆️efficiency of the human body.

Many factors can influence or dampen the effect including age, genetics and training status.

Look out for further posts which relate to this important process.

Training zones
——————————————————————
🔈Dictated by the % of lactate threshold. I will be highlighting key variables to assist you with programme design and outcomes.
——————————————————————
Zone 1 70-76% oxidative (recovery goal)
🕐Simulates blood circulation and acceleration recovery ⬇️inflammation enchanting tissue healing response🛏
——————————————————————
Zone 2 77-85%
GOOD FOR EVENTS OVER 2h 🐢
Slow twitch, >2min (talking when running).
——————————————————————
Zone 3 86-95%
Oxygen debt becomes greater from zone 2 to 3. Many get excited and wear the body down, 'money zone' to go fast without dipping into CHO.📤
——————————————————————
Zone 4 96-103%
LA ♻️at the fastest rate, ⬆️can cause pre mature fatigue. Perform intervals towards LT teaches to ⬇️accumulation and teach to remove quicker.
——————————————————————
Zone 5 104%-max
Sustained speed leg/arm turnover
Exceeds LT, body is stressed to try remove lactate (not sustainable) ✅surges as aerobic system helps. Too much time in this zone causes overtraining.
Good: NM recruitment, economy, efficiency, and turnover.
——————————————————————
Above zone 5 (5sec-2min)
Explosive speed and power
✅strength, power, FT muscles, running mech- ⬇️interval ⬆️recovery (1:4-10)
🏋🏻‍♂️🤾🏾‍♂️🏃🏻‍♂️ie power lifting and plyometrics.

Taping: Tennis elbow
——————————————————————
A common condition which is created from overuse causing pain on the outside of the elbow. This can lead to pins and needles in your little finger due to the tendon swelling. Then causes pressure on the nerve.

Techniques vary from what the client wants and the severity.

I hope these techniques help.

Remember: have on for 3 days, only use approved tape, read the conditions of each tape.

Science behind gaining muscle mass
——————————————————————
To get stronger and bigger muscle damage must occur. Disruptions in the muscle cells and level of homeostasis assists with this to happen.

My advice would be to vary training and intensity, the muscle adapts to the demands placed on it. It must be tested to be ready to match the next session.

Loads of papers and key researchers to help get a further understanding too.

Stay strong 💪🏼 lift smart

Science of repetitions
————————————————
This post discusses where reps originated from and the main theory about it's application.

I think some areas of healthcare and rehab are losing sight of how to utilise it effectively. There is more to training than 3 sets of 10.

Keep up with the feedback 💪🏼
