Romanian Deadlifts vs Nordics… what is the difference??

The RDL is a hip hinge exercise, whereas the Nordic’s activation is focused around the knee.

In a recents study of 37 male academy soccer players, the combination of resistance training (RDL’s or Nordics) and high speed running effectively enhanced athletic performance and knee flexor strength in both groups.

However the Nordic group demonstrated greater improvements in jumping and sprinting.

The Nordic is a very technical exercise, and whilst offering great results, it takes technique and training to perfect… as so graciously demonstrated 😂 The RDL offers similar improvements with less technique required.

Studies show drinking coffee may be linked to a decreased risk of Parkinson’s disease, Type 2 diabetes, and Alzheimers, metabolic syndrome, chronic kidney disease, liver cancer and gallstones and kidney stones!

Coffee with caffeine, has been linked to improved mood and decreased depression in some.

Drinking 3-4 cups a day has been linked to decreased stroke risk.

Drinking coffee before noon has shown greatest reductions in dying early from any cause as well as cardiovascular disease.

So, enjoy your morning coffee!! ☕️

Who did it better??

Balance at 50 is a strong predictor of risk of falls and fracture at 70.

The ability to stand on one leg for longer than 10 seconds without wobbling, correlates with decreased morality risk in multiple studies.

Balance decreases because we stop challenging it, not just because we age.

And we think the old girl had this one!! 😉

The science proves it!! Buy that new pair of runners. Not only will you run faster 😉, but researchers in Luxembourg studied 264 adult runners in a 22 week study.

Those who rotated through multiple shoe models experienced a 39% decrease in risk of running injury compared with those always running in the same shoe.

Could there be a better reason to buy that new pair for Christmas?? 🎅🏼

Our very own Hannah, graduated from UNSW today… with Distinction, no less.

Han, you are a hardworking superstar, and we are all so very proud of your achievements, as should you be.

But the big nerd she is, means she’ll still be behind the desk at SSP in 2026, as she embarks on her Honours Degree.

Enjoy this wonderful achievement Hannah!

Good new for choccy milk lovers!😍

A study done by Katelyn A Born et.al revealed that chocolate milk is actually more beneficial than traditional sports or energy drinks in terms of repairing muscles and replenishing glycogen after workouts.

Chocolate milk contains adequate electrolytes (that are excreted by the body when we sweat) but it also contains the ideal carbohydrate-to-protein ratio (3:1), which is essential for muscle recovery.

This can also suggest that just because a drink or supplement may not be produced by a sports nutrition/supplement brand, this doesn’t necessarily mean that it won’t be beneficial for athletes.

It is important to note that most chocolate milks contain a relatively high amount of sugar therefore, this is something to be mindful of.
