Today is leg day! Split squats are a great exercise to strengthen your legs, increase lower body mobility, and improve core stability and balance. ⁠
⁠
Let’s get started!⁠
⁠
1. Stand straight with both feet under your shoulders, then take a big step forward⁠
2. Shift your weight to the heel of your front leg while squatting down, maintain an upright torso and lift your back heel up, until your back shin and front thigh are parallel with the ground⁠
3. Pause briefly, strengthen your core and back and drive through your front heel to stand back up to the start position⁠
4. Do 8 to 15 reps per leg for 2 to 4 sets. Rest for 1 to 2 minutes between sets

The piriformis is a small, flat, band-like muscle located in the buttocks near the top of the hip joint. Although it’s a small muscle, it can be a significant source of sciatica, hip, and lower back pain.⁠
⁠
Luckily there are simple and effective ways to stretch out that tiny piriformis muscle and provide relief. Let’s give the supine piriformis stretch a try!⁠
⁠
1. Lie down and bend your knees upwards, placing your feet on the floor⁠
2. Cross the affected leg over the opposite leg ⁠
3. Gently pull the back knee towards yourself, stretching the affected leg (don’t pull the affected leg, keep it resting on the opposite leg)⁠
4. Hold this position for 30 seconds and repeat three times

📢️ Strengthen your adductors!

🗣️ Stretching your adductors regularly can improve your flexibility and performance, and may also prevent injury and stiffness.

➡️ Stand tall with good posture and draw the abs in
➡️ Take a long step to the side while keeping the toes pointing straight ahead
➡️ Slowly sit into a lateral squat with one leg while keeping the other leg completely straight until a good stretch is felt in the groin of the straight leg (be careful not to go too strong)
➡️ Hold for the recommended time of 20-30 seconds and repeat on other leg

✅ Maintain posture throughout
✅ Keep a relaxed breathing pattern
✅ Avoid rounding/flattening of the lower back
✅ Keep the hips square and do not rotate them.

📣 [Speak to a healthcare professional if you have any concerns about stretching, especially if you have an injury or medical condition]

When you think about mental health support, you might picture a psychologist or counsellor – but did you know that Occupational Therapists (OTs) can also play a key role? 💭

OTs help people regain balance in daily life by addressing the connection between mind, body, and environment – whether that means building healthy routines, improving focus, or finding motivation again.

✨ Learn how occupational therapy can support your mental well-being and help you get back to the activities that matter most.
