WHY WOMEN SHOULD CARE ABOUT RESISTANCE TRAINING AS MUCH AS I DO

RESISTANCE TRAINING FOR EVERY PHASE OF LIFE

Whether you’re 8 or 80, resistance training isn’t just about aesthetics—it’s biologically necessity for living and ageing well. It acts as "pre-hab" for the body, strengthening the foundations of our bones and muscles so we can navigate hormonal shifts and physical milestones with confidence and strength.

As we age, maintaining independence becomes the top priority and resistance training is the key to reducing fall risks and preserving functional capacity. It’s never too early to start and never too late to begin; every rep is an investment in your future self’s ability to move, recover and thrive. Strength is for everyone, at every stage—because staying strong isn't optional, it's essential.

About to load up for some back squats?

Here are my 3 go-to mobility drills before I get under the bar.

KB weight shifts
These help with control and positioning right at the bottom of the squat and cut down on any side-to-side shifting.
Set-up is key — keep the bent knee lined up with the heel and toe of your other foot. Do five pulses, then hold for 15-20 seconds, repeat on each side 3 times.

90/90 rotations with back ankle lift-offs
These train both internal and external hip rotation and build strength in the end ranges, instead of just stretching alone. Set up with both knees at 90 degrees, have the shin following the knee angle. Lean forward for 10 seconds, then lift the back ankle off the ground 5 times while keeping the knee down.

Cossack squats
These open up the adductors, build strength in the deep positions and improve hip and ankle mobility at the same time. Take a wide stance, keep the supporting foot’s heel on the ground and lift the other foots toes. Lean the torso over the supporting knee to increase ankle ROM, hold for 10 seconds on each side for a deep adductor stretch. Repeat 4 times on each side.

There are heaps of options out there, but these 3 consistently carry over well to squats.

What are your favourite pre-squat drills?

What outcome would you expect from me today to make this a successful appointment for you?

Years ago my mentor taught me to start every appointment with this question.

Why?

To make sure the patient feels heard and the hour is guided purely by the patient.

Have you ever been in an appointment wanting it to go in a certain direction, and yet by the end you felt unheard and unsatisfied? No matter how good a clinician, specialist or Dr is, if the patient’s expected outcome or goal doesn’t remain the focus of the appointment…then what’s the point?

I am always surprised by how patients answer the question. Some say ‘to get help with my new diagnosis’ or ‘preventing the disease my mother passed from’, others ‘to shut my Dr up’ or ‘to get help managing my pain so I can be more active with my kids.’

The thing that never surprises me though is that it’s a constant reminder…there is no 1 treatment plan for all, no 1 size fits all and no standard pathway forward. And if you’re feeling like you’re in a cookie cutter patient pathway…then maybe it’s time for a new support team.

Why Resistance Training is BEST for Diabetes…

As an Exercise Physiologist, resistance training is one of the MOST powerful tools we use for diabetes management. When the goal is long-term health, strength, and independence — EPs lead the way.

Still unsure? Let us answer your questions.

Walking, swimming, yoga, and Pilates are awesome for so many reasons… but if your main goal is building stronger bones (increasing bone mineral density), they're not the top choice on their own.

They’re great for:
✅ Better mobility
✅ Core strength
✅ Mental health
✅ Gentle, low-impact movement

But bones respond best to real loading and impact—not just any movement.

The most effective ways to strengthen bones are:
- Resistance training with moderate to heavy loads
- Impact activities (like jumps, running, or anything with higher forces)
- Progressive overload (gradually increasing the challenge over time)

Why walking/swimming/yoga/Pilates alone often fall short for bone density:
- They put low mechanical stress on the skeleton
- Minimal ground reaction forces
- Hard to progressively overload enough
- Not enough stimulus at key spots like hips and spine

Walking is great for overall health, but the repetitive low strain usually isn't enough to make a big difference in bone density. Same with yoga and Pilates—they build strength and stability, but don't load bones heavily enough.

This matters particularly for postnatal women, breastfeeding mums, perimenopausal women, or anyone in an energy deficit or on certain meds—where bone turnover can already be higher.

The sweet spot for bone health?
Combine strength training + some impact work… and keep walking, Pilates, or yoga as supportive add-ons (not the main bone-builders).

Common questions we are regularly asked!

Q: Do I need a referral to see you?�A: Nope! No referral is needed to book. If you have one — great — but it’s not required.

Q: I have private health insurance. What does this mean for me?�A: Depending on your fund and level of cover, you may receive partial or full rebates for your sessions.�Check with your health fund to see what you’re eligible for — you may be pleasantly surprised.

Q: I have NDIS / DVA / Aged Care / WorkCover funding. Can I use it with you?�A: Yes. We work with a range of funding pathways and can help guide you through the process.

Q: I’ve been told not to exercise. Should I still see an EP?�A: Yes — this is what we live and breathe. Exercise Physiologists are trained to work safely and appropriately with people who’ve been told to avoid exercise due to medical conditions or injury.

Q: What does an Exercise Physiologist actually do?�A: We use exercise as treatment for injuries, chronic conditions, pain, and complex health needs — not just general fitness. EPs are university-qualified allied health professionals who treat medical, injury, and chronic health conditions using exercise.

Q: Do you work with chronic conditions?�A: Yes — including diabetes, heart disease, arthritis, osteoporosis, chronic pain, neurological conditions, and more.

Q: Where do sessions take place?�A: Sessions may take place in our Tumbi clinic, your home, in the community, or in one of our gym locations — depending on your needs and preferences.

Q: How do I get started?�A: Give us a call today — it’s as easy as that.
