🎄🦃 Holiday PSA: Beware of… Turkey Back! 🦃🎄

You’ve heard of turkey dinner, turkey leftovers, maybe even turkey coma…

But around the holidays, we start seeing a classic injury: “Turkey Back.”

What is Turkey Back?
It’s that sneaky moment when you heroically lift a 20-lb holiday bird out of the oven like you’re starring in a cooking show…only to realize your spine was not part of the cast. 😅

🔥 Symptoms may include:
• Sudden regret
• Saying “I’m fine” while hunched like a Christmas elf
• Replaying the moment you decided a 25-lb turkey was “no big deal”

The good news? You’re not alone — we see “Turkey Back” every year.

The better news? We’re experts in treating „Turkey Back“ - email us now to book 📲

Stay festive, lift smart, and may your holidays be merry, bright, and pain-free 🦃🎄

❄️ Before you shovel, try this:

1️⃣ March in place – 30–60 seconds
Get the blood flowing and wake up your legs.

2️⃣ Arm circles – 10 forward, 10 backward
Loosens shoulders and upper back for lifting and pushing.

3️⃣ Torso rotations – 10 each side
Rotate gently side to side (no forcing). Helps protect your back.

4️⃣ Hip hinges – 10 reps
Hands on thighs, hinge forward with a flat back, then stand tall. Preps your spine and hips.

5️⃣ Bodyweight squats – 8–10 reps
Sit back like you’re lowering into a chair. Warms up hips, knees, and thighs.

👉 Bonus tip: Take breaks, lift smaller loads, and switch sides often while shovelling.

🐶If your kettlebells have your back barking louder than your dog — it’s time to fix your form, not just your playlist. 🎵💪

Back pain after lifting isn’t a badge of honour — it’s a sign to pivot your training.

Try:
✅ Single-Leg Romanian Deadlifts for glute + hamstring strength without the strain
✅ Supported Dumbbell Rows to build back power safely

Strong backs don’t bark — they move smart.

🔥 Deadlifts = Back Pain? 🔥

Deadlifts build strength, BUT… they’re also one of the top culprits I see for new back injuries in the clinic.

If your back hurts when you lift, don’t ignore it. You’ve got smarter, safer options:
✅ Single-Leg Romanian Deadlift – hits hamstrings & glutes without crushing your spine.
✅ Dumbbell Row – strong back gains, low injury risk.

💡 Pain is your body’s red flag. Train smart, not broken.

💪 Stronger at every age! After 50, building strength means stronger bones, better balance, and fewer falls.
