Running conditions are improving… which means one common trap 👇
Doing too much, too soon.

We’re already seeing an increase in:
• Achilles & calf tightness
• Knee pain (especially around the kneecap)
• Hip & glute overload

A few simple ways to stay on track:
• Build gradually (10–15% per week)
• Keep 1–2 easy days
• Don’t ignore niggles
• Keep up your strength work

Not all soreness is a bad thing - but if pain is sharp, worsening, or sticking around longer than a couple of days, it’s worth getting checked early.

🥗 Fuel meets function.

We recently had the pleasure of welcoming Sports Dietician Claire Russell from Canberra Allied Health to present to the Fortis team, diving into the world of sports nutrition and performance.

From fuelling recovery to optimising energy and performance, it’s a powerful reminder that what happens outside the clinic is just as important as what happens inside it.

At Fortis Physio, we see firsthand how physiotherapy + sports dietetics go hand-in-hand:
🔸 Recovering from injury? Nutrition plays a key role in healing
🔸 Training hard? The right fuel supports performance and consistency
🔸 Managing load? Energy availability can make or break progress

Claire shared practical, evidence-based strategies to help athletes and everyday people build sustainable habits - not just quick fixes.

We love collaborating with passionate professionals in our community who bring different expertise to the table. It’s how we continue to learn, evolve, and deliver the best possible care to our patients 💪

❄️🏃‍♂️ Winter sport season is here ⚽🏉
Here are 5 keys to stay strong, consistent, and injury-resistant this season:

1. Build your load gradually
Avoid sudden spikes - consistency early on beats going too hard too fast.

2. Prioritise strength
Strong muscles protect your joints and help you move better under pressure.

3. Don’t skip your warm-up
Prepare your body properly before training - don’t go from 0 to 100.

4. Respect recovery
Sleep, hydration, and nutrition all play a huge role in performance and injury prevention.

5. Act early on small issues
Small niggles don’t just “go away” - addressing them early keeps you on the field.

Want to dive deeper into each of these?
