🎃 Halloween Hips — scare off tight hips & sluggish strides 👻
Runner’s hip mobility + strength mini-class to wake up internal rotation, switch on abductors, and build rock-solid control so you run smoother, stronger, and more injury-resistant.

Warm-up (Awaken):
• 90/90 hip rolls · Hip C.A.R.S. · Hip swings (front & side)

Main Set (Educate → Integrate):
• Foam roller squeeze + band pull-apart (IR focus)
• Standing IR squat · Abductor slide-out
• Foam-roller squat (adductor squeeze)
• Side plank (lateral chain) · Aeroplanes (hinge + rotation)

Why runners love it:
• Cleaner hip IR → more efficient stride
• Lateral stability = fewer ITB/knee niggles
• Better control for climbs/descents
• Ideal pre-run primer or post-run reset

Kit: foam roller, mini-band, slider/towel weight (sock on smooth floor works).
Level: all levels — go slow, own the range, never push into pain.

If you coach or create running content, steal these evidence-informed drills for better-looking clips and better legs on the road/trail.

Your Runner’s Toolbox, right on your desktop 🧰💻

We’ll warm up, build strength, and fine-tune form so you can run farther, feel better, and bounce back faster. Expect mobility flows, foot + hip strength, and simple gait cues you can use on your very next run.

Getting SHIFT done ⚡️ Tropical Twist in hand, backend brain switched on.

I’ve been buried behind the scenes giving PhysioRun.net a proper tune-up — faster, cleaner, easier to navigate, and way smoother delivery for classes, drills and resources. Less faff, more flow. 🛠️🏃‍♂️

And yes… it was a coffee-kinda day ☕️ — but SYFA Shift kept the concentration dial turned up without the coffee bonk. Crisp Tropical Twist, focus locked, work rate high. For me it’s the perfect “build + edit + ship” combo while I polish the library and tighten up the member experience.

Why I back it:
• SYENCE™ tech = fat-soluble actives made water-soluble for next-level uptake (think efficiency, not excess).
• Clean, steady feel — no jitters, no slump, just get-stuff-done energy.
• Tastes like a holiday, performs like a training partner. 🏝️➡️🏋️‍♂️

If you’re a runner who loves simple, effective tools — new site is live, and the Classroom + foot mechanics resources are easier than ever to find. Dive in, do the work, feel the difference.

I do miss the travels with teams — the airports, the chaos, the sideline buzz. But the learning never left. It’s in the room with me every single day.
Experiences + education + a constant thirst for better inputs = my tailored PhysioRun approach.
Assess clearly. Coach simply. Load wisely. Progress patiently.
Awaken → Educate → Integrate. That’s the work. That’s the win. ✈️🌍🏃‍♂️🧠

If you’re a runner who wants fewer niggles and more flow, come inside the method — follow for weekly drills and check the bio to join the PhysioRun Classroom.

🎵 “When I am with you, there’s no place I’d rather be…” 🎵

That’s the vibe in the clinic.
Runners chasing progress, not perfection. Physios guiding with science, not guesswork.
Every session is a mix of trust, teamwork, and a few shots in the dark — guided by evidence, not luck. 💥

Because when the plan clicks, the pain eases, and the stride returns…
There’s genuinely no place we’d rather be. 🏃‍♂️💫

🎥 Welcome to the Medial Knee Classroom!
Today we went deep on one of the most misunderstood areas for runners — that nagging pain on the inside of the knee.

We broke down how the adductors, quads, and hip control all team up to protect that medial line. When one slacks off… the knee cops it.

💪 Warm-up drills:
→ Pronation Lunge – teaching the knee to track and load through real movement.
→ Hip Lock to Curtsy Lunge – linking hip control to knee alignment (and a killer balance test).

🔥 Main set:
→ Prone Crawlers for hip rotation and pelvic control.
→ ISO Straight-Leg Lifts to lock in quad endurance.
→ Adductor Side-Leg Lifts – small move, massive burn.
→ Sissy Squat / Reverse Nordic – building bulletproof quads and eccentric control.
→ ISO Wall Sit finisher – because stability is sexy.

This one’s all about earning control through tension — not just chasing fatigue.
Perfect for anyone dealing with runner’s knee, medial knee pain, or tight adductors.

The box just landed. .complements 🖤

You know that feeling when something looks different before you’ve even opened it? That’s this. Clean. Sleek. Smart. Not your average energy anything.

This is the first drop of the new SYFA Shift — my go-to recovery drink after a session. No hype, no crash, no nonsense — just calm, sustained focus that actually feels good.

Unboxing the future of focus — one can at a time.

🎧 Just finished a cracking listen on featuring Samuel Stowe — and it’s one for the masters runners out there 🧠🏃‍♂️

They dive deep into the biomechanics of ageing gracefully, how breath control shapes performance, and the movement secrets that keep your stride strong well past your PB years. 🫁⚙️

The big takeaway? Longevity in running isn’t about slowing down — it’s about tuning in. Understanding your mechanics, adjusting your load, and learning to breathe through fatigue, not fight it. 👣

If you’re a masters runner chasing that next chapter of performance — not decline — give this episode a listen. 🎙️

Or better yet, come see us at where we explore these exact principles daily. Whether it’s gait analysis, mobility testing, or refining your breathing pattern, you’ll leave knowing exactly what’s holding you back — and what’s still possible. 💪

🔥 CTA: Hit up the podcast, then hit the clinic. Your next decade of running starts with curiosity.

“I’m sure they looked happy at some point…” 😅
But that’s the thing — time and places is all in who you share it with.

Warsaw brought the cold, the cobbles, and the character. Some of us smiled. Some of us grimaced. Most of us did both in the same kilometre.

PB bells were rung (too early), pasta was hunted (aggressively), and memories were made (guaranteed sore quads to prove it).
