Running injury??
When running we have around 3 times our weight exerted on our joints and muscles, then we repeat that over and over on each leg/foot strike we make 🤯

Now, I know we don’t all run the same, BUT, if you can start thinking about implementing the following vital prehabilitative processes injury occurrence *should* DECREASE
1. WARM UP 🔥yep that’s right I said it... actually put some time aside, say 10 min max to warm up and prime your body. Make it running specific, dynamic and don’t forget those calves!
2. STRENGTH TRAINING 🏋️‍♀️ specifically aimed at the posterior chain. Strong glutes and calves really help decrease running injuries but most runners, yep I’m talking to you, are quite weak in both key muscle groups. Training these muscles WILL make a difference...
3. SPRINT🏃‍♀️Yep you heard it! Sprinting decreases all those hamstring issues, whether reoccurring tears or tendinosis
4. RUNNING TECHNIQUE 🏃‍♂️... this one is a hard one and if you can fix or be mindful of the following…. A) DON’T OVER-STRIDE 🙅‍♀️ try to land or strike under your center of gravity. Even when you try to run faster don’t reach out in front that just causes a huge ground reaction force or stopping force that greatly increases the load in your knees and shins....
B)CADENCE 🕓 So basically how many steps you take each minute. As a general rule aim for 170, yep sounds like a lot but a cadence of 170 has shown to decrease running related injuries by 30%.
5. RUNNING VOLUME 📈 Isn’t it weird that 2 years ago you could run 10km but trying to start off back at that distance is tough... So start off small and progressively add to the volume or kilometers you run weekly.

Squats are bad for my knees! 🤭

Squats are bad for your knees?? Whoever told you that doesn’t know how to squat. Yep, some people battle knee pain or injuries and the thought of doing squats can be scary. Yes squats under huge load with poor form can look scary, but, when the knee functions properly, there is nothing to be afraid of, in fact research shows squats are beneficial to knee health.

The knee consists of 2 main joints the tibiofemoral joint and the patellofemoral joint. The tibiofemoral joint is the main joint we talk about during a squat. As we squat if the foot is internally or externally rotated, this causes rotation at the tibia and this can have an effect on the joint mechanics. This is can be seen when the knees track inwards or “knock” towards each other. This is normally due to weak glutes, external rotators and adductors and then over using the lateral quads to stabilise instead.

So we should do exercises to strengthen and stabilise our glutes, inner thigh, hamstrings and calf muscles and then ensure proper mechanics to squat better. In the event of past knee injury sometimes it can be this simple to help you get some strength back in those knees! If you need help with your squat or knee pain click the book now button!
