🔵 Sleep, Performance & Pain

Above is a quote from Matt Fraser, five time Crossfit Games champion. Matt goes on to state how vitally important his quality of sleep is for his recovery and athletic performance.

Not just that but emerging research is showing that sleep quality is closely correlated to patient pain levels.

Which is why as physiotherapists we emphasis that trying to develop a good sleep routine is vital to help reduce pain levels and improve quality of life.

🔵🔵 Strength Training

When people say I'm too old for strength training or that I wouldn't be fit for it .....

I don't buy them excuses..

Strength is required for everything we do in life such as getting up from a chair or carrying the shopping bags into the house.

Strength training is accessible to all people, at any age and can be adapted for each individual to help achieve their goals.

Don't believe me? Book an appointment and find out.

🔵🔵 The truth about VMO training 🔵🔵

The VMO or Vastus Medialis Obliquss if one of four quadricep muscles. It's primary function is to straighten or extend your knee. It does this in unison with the OTHER three quadricep muscles.

Patients with some conditions like Patellofemoral Syndrome or Patellar subluxation are told to STRENGTHEN their VMO.

However you CANNOT isolate or strengthen the VMO alone without engaging all the other quadricep muscles, even if you twist your leg a certain way as seen on social media and training videos.

Moral of the story.... VMO strengthening is just quadricep strengthening ✅

⛔⛔Pain & Tissue Damage

Would you believe you can have one without the other?

Often scans can show a joint with no tissue damage despite the patient reporting pain in that area.

Scans can also pick up structural/tissue damage in individuals who are pain free and functional, therefore require no treatment.

So does pain always equal damage? No ❌
