💡 Understanding Low Muscle Tone (Hypotonia)

Low muscle tone means the muscles feel soft or floppy and lack natural tension at rest. It’s not the same as weakness — but it can make movements slower, less controlled, and more tiring.

People with low tone often need extra effort for posture, coordination, and daily activities like sitting upright, writing, or playing sport.

Physiotherapy helps by:
🧩 Strengthening muscles for better endurance and stability
🧩 Improving balance and coordination
🧩 Teaching efficient movement patterns
🧩 Making daily tasks and participation feel easier and less tiring

At Puzzles Strength and Conditioning, we focus on building confidence, independence, and long-term physical skills — because everyone fits in 💚

Sound the alarms🚨🚨🚨!!! Over the weekend our long term client Spencer earned bronze in the under 17 boys decathlon at the Australian Athletics Championship🥉. Spencer is one of those guys who always locks in and gives it his all. I’ve never met a young athlete so passionate and driven towards achieving a goal. He has maintained this level of dedication towards his athletics for the three years that we have worked together, and it’s amazing to see all his hard work pay off. The crazy thing is he is just getting started. Keep killing it, Spencer. 🏃

Oscar is one of the most resilient people we have ever met and had the privilege to work with at Puzzles 🧩. He is constantly working his butt off towards improving his functional capacity and has worked tirelessly before and after surgeries to build up his leg strength to be where he is now. After all his hard work, Oscar has started progressing in to walking lunges. He has also become a part of the 100kg deadlift club too! Keep killing it, Oscar! 💪🏋️
