Drew’s expertise in female athlete development aligns seamlessly with the ethos behind your Project: Strength sessions. His deep understanding of the physiological considerations unique to female athletes allows him to tailor strength work that genuinely respects the athlete’s body while pushing performance forward.

Within Project: Strength, he brings a sharp eye for movement quality, load progression, and programming, ensuring each session builds resilience, power, and confidence in a way that feels both challenging and safe.

What elevates his contribution is his ability to translate complex science into clear, empowering coaching cues—helping athletes understand why they’re doing what they’re doing and how it supports long‑term performance and health. The result is a strength program that isn’t just well‑designed; it’s athlete‑centred, evidence‑driven, and perfectly aligned with your wider mission at Project: Physio to raise the standard of care for every athlete who walks through the door.

Let us start with a HUGE THANK YOU TO ALL THOSE PATIENTS WHO ATTENDED THE CLNIC THIS YEAR

2025 was a year defined by remarkable growth and unwavering demand. Every single week of the year sold out, with waiting lists at times stretching up to four weeks—an incredible reflection of the trust placed in our clinic.

Our specialist services in sports massage, strength and conditioning, and physical performance testing continued to expand and evolve, delivering measurable improvements in recovery, resilience, and performance for sportspeople of all ages and levels.

This year also saw us welcome even more teams and athletes into our support programmes, and we are deeply grateful for the confidence they continue to place in our expertise and our mission to elevate performance through evidence‑based, athlete‑centred care.

Christmas get togethers are always made best by bringing good friends together, reflecting on the past and planning for the future.

We consider ourselves incredibly lucky to have the support of some great people and incredible practioners.

Friendships shape who we become. They challenge us, steady us, and remind us of our strengths when we forget them ourselves. The support we give and receive through these relationships isn’t just a personal comfort—it’s a foundation that strengthens us professionally too.

When we’re surrounded by people who believe in us, encourage us, and walk alongside us, we grow with more confidence, resilience, and purpose. No one succeeds alone, and the connections we nurture become the quiet force that helps us thrive in every part of life.

Using a roller for eccentric slides or Nordic-style variations increases the fascicle length of the biceps femoris. This shift in the length-tension relationship is critical for preventing strains during high-velocity downhill running or late-swing phase sprinting.

Edinburgh based rower Jack in the clinic working on back squat mechanics and loading

Dual Force plates allowing for insight into the percentage of weight distributed to each leg throughout the entire rep.

The Force plates track where the weight is distributed on the foot (heel vs. midfoot vs. toes). Using the Smith Machine, it provides a great deal of trunk stability so we monitor that if the CoP moves forward and backward, it may indicate a restricted range of motion, so causing a shift.

We can also look at his force at zero velocity: This is the force recorded at the exact moment he stops moving down and starts moving up. It is a key indicator of isometric strength in the bottom part of his squat, a key position for rowing lower limb strength.

This then informs rehab using the TRX to provide stability while working on single leg control and the coupling phase, plus support for some slow SSC and fast SSC.
