There’s no excuse not to be squatting 👊

🏋️‍♂️ Squatting is one of the most valuable movements you can do at any age. It builds strength, maintains mobility, and keeps you capable in everyday life - from getting off the couch to staying injury-resistant.

Whether you’re a complete beginner, coming back from injury, or lifting heavy, there’s always a squat variation that fits your level. Start where you’re comfortable, focus on good form, and progress gradually.

Consistency beats intensity - move well, move often, and your body will thank you for it.

A structured warm-up can help prepare your body for the demands of footy by improving muscle activation, mobility, and coordination before you hit the field.

This sequence targets key areas like glutes, hamstrings, calves, and lower limb control:

• Glute bridge (double & single leg) – 2x6
• Hamstring bridge – 2x6
• Crab walks – 2x8
• Calf raises (double leg 2x10, single leg 2x8)
• Pogos (double leg 2x10 sec, single leg 1x10 sec)
• Split squats – 2x5
• Leg swings – 1x10

Incorporating exercises like these into your warm-up may help support performance and reduce injury risk by preparing your body for running, jumping, and change of direction.

If you’re unsure what’s right for you or managing an injury, chat with one of our practitioners for individualised guidance.

As the mornings get darker and the days get colder, staying consistent with training can be a challenge.

A few simple ways to keep things achievable:
• Train earlier in the day to stay consistent
• Find a training partner for accountability
• Wear appropriate layers to stay warm and comfortable

Small adjustments like these can help you stay on track and maintain momentum through the colder months.

If you need help structuring your training or managing niggles, our team is here to support you.

Tight glutes can contribute to discomfort through the hips and lower back, especially if you’re sitting for long periods or training regularly.

Beck runs through a simple glute stretch you can incorporate into your routine to help improve mobility and ease muscle tension.

Move within a comfortable range and avoid pushing into pain — consistency is key.

If you’re unsure what stretches are right for you or dealing with ongoing discomfort, speak with one of our practitioners for individualised guidance.

Meet Arthur (Myotherapist)

Arthur helps active people stay consistent with training by managing muscle tightness, minor strains, and movement limitations.

He works closely with amateur athletes and regular gym-goers who want to keep progressing without being held back by injury.

He wishes more people understood that pain doesn’t always mean damage, and that the body is highly resilient - often adapting well when load is managed appropriately.

Sessions focus on identifying the root cause, with a combination of hands-on treatment and targeted rehab to keep you moving and performing at your best.

Adenomyosis is more than “just bad period pain.”

It’s a condition where tissue similar to the lining of the uterus grows into the muscular wall of the uterus, which can contribute to pain, heavy periods, and impact day-to-day life.

Symptoms can vary, but may include:
• Pelvic pain
• Heavy or prolonged periods
• Bloating or a feeling of pressure
• Fatigue

Everyone’s experience is different, and symptoms don’t always reflect severity.

Supportive care may help with symptom management, including movement, manual therapy, and lifestyle strategies, alongside guidance from your healthcare team.

If something doesn’t feel right, it’s worth getting it checked.

Meet Charlotte (Intern Osteopath)

Charlotte enjoys working with a wide range of people — from athletes to desk workers — helping them regain confidence in their movement.

One thing she wishes more people knew?
Pain with certain movements doesn’t mean they’re harmful or will stay painful forever. With the right approach and gradual exposure, those movements can become comfortable again.

Sessions include a thorough history and assessment, hands-on treatment, and an individualised program designed to support your goals and get you back to what you love doing.

You can book in with Charlotte this Wednesday morning, or Thursday nights from 23rd April!

Not progressing in the gym the way you expected?

It might not be about doing more, but about adjusting your load.

Load isn’t just the weight you lift. It also includes how fast you move and the position you’re working in. And importantly, it’s influenced by factors like sleep, nutrition, and both mental and physical fatigue.

Understanding this can help you train smarter, reduce injury risk, and get more out of your sessions.

If you’re unsure how to adjust your training or if something doesn’t feel quite right, our practitioners can help guide you through it and tailor an approach that suits your body and your goals.

Learning how to engage your deep core can be a helpful part of building body awareness and control 🙌

Here, Beck demonstrates a simple way to activate the transverse abdominis (TA) - a muscle that plays a role in supporting the trunk during movement.

This type of exercise may be useful in some rehab or strength programs, depending on the individual.

If you’re unsure what’s right for you, have a chat with your practitioner 👍

RockTape vs Rigid Tape - what’s the difference? 🤔

Both have their place, it just depends on what your body needs 👇

🔹 RockTape (kinesiology tape)
Designed to move with your body. It can help support muscles and joints without restricting movement, making it great for training, recovery, and staying active.

🔹 Rigid tape
Built for stability. This one limits movement to help protect injured areas or provide extra support during sport.

Not sure which is right for you? That’s where we come in and we’ll guide you based on your injury, goals, and activity 💪

Book online or give us a call to chat with our team.
