Strong runners don’t just log miles.

They:

Build capacity
Train with intention
Play the long game

They understand that performance isn’t about doing more — it’s about doing what actually matters.

This free group class will show you:
How strength fits into a runner’s week
Which movements carry over to running
How to build durability without burning out

Whether you’re training for your next race or just want to keep running pain-free, this session is for you.

📍 Saturday, March 7th
⏰ 11:00 AM

Spots are limited so we can keep this hands-on and high quality.

The type of injury you have is only one factor that determines your experience and outcomes

We see that people can have completely different experiences all the time with the same injury or location of symptoms

Although sometimes hearing someone else’s experience can be motivating, it can also be limiting, depending on that persons experiences

So while it’s okay to ask your friends or see athletes with your injury, we encourage our clients not to attach this to their expectations of what they will experience or achieve

Remember, you don’t know what someone else’s has gone through, there’s a lot more underneath the iceberg for both you and others beyond simply having the same injury

And this is a good thing because regardless of what someone else has experienced, you likely can do things to improve YOUR current experience with YOUR injury

This a great example of what the risk vs reward conversation can look like when it comes to deciding whether to continue playing or not.

There is a ton of nuance that goes into these decisions so please remember this even when watching this clip.

But these are the types of conversations we have with our clients. We are here to support and guide them to making the best decisions for themselves!

The one thing that kills gradual progression and return to full activity is inconsistency. It’s boring, it’s not fancy, but that grunt work and being consistent with your work is what gradually moves the needle!

The ACL rehab process can seem daunting

We do our best to educate and lay out the process for our clients as soon as possible so expectations can be set and a game plan can be established!

Our physiotherapist Nick in Brantford has been specializing in ACL rehab and is here to help if you have any questions about the rehab process.

Maybe those bad postures aren’t so bad after all!

Sometimes slouching might help offload some sensitive tissues that are painful when you’re arching

This is why we try to avoid labelling postures and positions as bad or good, instead we think of them as options

We try to put together the context of your situation to discover what type of plan when it comes to movement and exercise makes sense for you

These variables will likely need adjustments and should be a big part of your rehab process.

Things like, how often are you doing these activities, how intense, how much volume, how are you monitoring for appropriate responses, when is it appropriate to start back at the activity, how will you know you’re ready…what measures are you using to assess that?

This isn’t the whole picture, but your activity should be weaved within your rehab.

Tendon pain may occur in a few of ways
1️⃣ If you exceed the tendons tolerance acutely, in one session (shown in the top graph)
2️⃣ if you exceed the tendons tolerance cumulatively, with inadequate rest between bouts of activity
Efforts you can make to reduce the risk of this occurring include
➡️ Training the tendons with progressive loading
➡️ Avoiding making massive jumps in activity
➡️ A quality training program that builds a base and has built in recovery along the way
➡️ Managing tendon discomfort immediately when it occurs versus persisting through
What tendon pain questions do you have?? 👇
