HYROX SIM DAY ✨

Last weekends sim at was amazing!!
Seeing everyone competing whether they were first timers, prepping for a race or seasoned hyroxers was incredible!

Thank you to all the spectators who cheered them on and to all the volunteers who helped make it happen 👏🏻

So happy with how my first event went and we will definitely be doing this again so if you missed out this time, keep your eyes peeled for the next one ☺️

Congratulations to everyone who took part 💪🏼

Sled Push is all about producing enough force to overcome resistance in the most efficient way. These 3 techniques only differ very slightly but have a big impact on efficiency.

1️⃣ Straight arms:
This technique doesn’t really have any benefits in terms of efficiency or speed. Having your body weight so far behind the sled doesn’t help when trying to produce enough force to move the sled.
👍🏼 The only positive is that some people find it helps their breathing when opening up their chest.

2️⃣ Bent Arms:
This technique is better than straight arms as it gets more of your body weight over the sled but many athletes often don’t get low enough and find it tough on their arms.
👍🏼 Athletes who lack flexibility and aren’t able to get as low may prefer this technique.

3️⃣ Forearm Push:
This technique makes the most of using your body weight to move the sled rather than just the power from your legs. It is the fastest technique when practiced.
👍🏼 This is my preferred technique that once you get the hang of, will make the sled feel much lighter!

As with most techniques, a big factor will be your personal preference so get practicing and see which one you prefer 💪🏼

Today I turned away a potential client... and I would do it again!

A 70yo man got in touch hoping to book an appointment after a friend recommended me.

We chatted for a while through his medical history and it became clear he had been struggling for a while and needed some further investigation.

However, I knew that sports massage wasn’t the right fit for him at this stage so I told him just that!

I recommended a trusted physiotherapist who I thought would be able to help.

He thanked me sincerely and said he’d reach out again in the future :)

Being honest and putting my clients’ best interests first will always be my priority and I will only treat those I am confident I can genuinely help.

So if you’re unsure if sports massage is right for you, I am always happy to have a chat to help you make a decision :)

Client Testimonial ✨

“Not one to normally write a review however on this occasion the team here are unreal.

Danielle is so professional, she supported me through on of my biggest tests to date sporting wise and her massages and general counsel was second to none.

Always responsive, great treatment, very flexible and really really good at what she does!”

Alan took on L’Etape last year and first came to see me to help get him through his big bike challenge. We worked together throughout his training to ensure he was recovering well between rides and before he headed out to France to ensure he was race day fit!

One year on and he’s off again next week to take on this monstrous challenge next so wishing him all the best for round 2 💪🏼🚴🏼‍♂️

If you’re training for a big challenge this summer, get in touch to book in a sports massage to keep you on track with your training 🙌🏼
