Texts like these remind us why we do what we do.

Out for three seasons of rugby due to ongoing knee issues.

Wasn’t a smooth sailing rehab journey. 6 months of hard work. Ups and downs, trial and error. But put in the work and got to a grand final, and named forward of the year 😎

Congrats mate 👏

Shoulder dislocation – sling or move early?

A recent study looked at people with their first anterior shoulder dislocation.
👉 One group used a sling for 2 weeks
👉 The other group started early movement

📊 The study suggests that early mobilisation may support better short-term function (6–12 weeks) – and didn’t increase the risk of re-dislocation.

⚠️ But remember: this is one study. Age, sport, and injury history still matter. Always get assessed by your physio or doctor before making decisions.

💡 Evidence is evolving – but it’s exciting to see research that challenges “long immobilisation” as the only way.

📖 Reference:
“Comparison of Functional Outcome After 2 Weeks Immobilization Versus No Immobilization After Reduction of First-Time Anterior Shoulder Dislocation” – Basic & Clinical Sciences Research Journal, 2025.

A nice RCT showing the benefits of adding Copenhagens into groin injury tears. Definitely still an ongoing debate around the use of copenhagens. As always “more research is needed”

Important to note:
A research summary infographic on Instagram should not be taken as gospel, or used to make clinical decisions for an athletes treatment! This is an extremely simplified version of the actual research paper. For a full understanding of the methods, findings, results and limitations, it’s important to actually read the paper. However, we’re aware that most of our athletes aren’t going to sit and read research articles on groin tears. In our eyes, a simplified version is better than no exposure at all to the peer-reviewed research world

So research summaries on Instagram should always be taken with a grain of salt. But this is our attempt to expose our athletes to the why behind the decisions we make around their injuries and performance programming 😊

Field session rain, hail or shine

End stage ACL returning to contact

Clip 1, 2 & 3: Basic exposures to contact
Clip 4: Change of direction exposures
Clip 5: Change of direction exposures under light pressure

The ability to change direction efficiently under pressure and go into contact without putting the knee in dangerous positions is a neglected part of ACL Rehab.

This session mainly focused on contact exposures where we avoid excessively wide foot placements and encourage safe angles when coming into contact (still keeping it quite light)

Also encouraging safe angles in slight “chaos” (returning a high ball under pressure etc).

This is the crux of ACL rehab in my opinion. The gym is obviously crucial to build baseline strength, rate of force development, running technique drills, etc

But ensuring athletes can put their body in safe positions in game like scenarios is key
