Kate Disley - Movement, Sport, Performance

Since the new year, I’ve been trying to be consistent & practice what I preach with my training.

I am 40+ female working full time and have 2 children. Alongside this I have a history of injures from high level sport, childbirth, caesarean, hip surgery and hormones to work around. The joys of being female!

I’m not training for a certain sport or event, just life and mental and physical health.

I spend a good chunk of my sessions “warming up” before I lift anything heavy. Focusing on hip stability, thoracic mobility and preparing my body to lift.

I superset nearly everything as I’m often short of time and don’t do a high volume of other sports these days.

I’ve learnt the hard way that I can’t just train like I used to. Accepting this was hard but my body is feeling the benefit.

Cold morning in the gym doing some little exercise videos for patients 🙌

At the end of the month I am having a trot out for my first full contact rugby game in over 10 years.

This is in aid of at Vets Fest 2025

As well as catching up with old friends and having a run about we are raising money for this wonderful chairty that support children and young people with disabilities or facing disadvantage across the UK and Ireland through the power of the rugby community.

If you’d like to donate the link is in the bio. You can also support by coming along on day to and joining in the festivities 🥳

I made a cake at the weekend for my daughter, simple but effective. Baking is not my forte but everyone likes cake…and everyone should feel they can eat cake.

Cake is not a ‘bad’ food.
There are no bad foods…strap yourself in for this one…

If someone could pass this message on to the online hyrox coach who told my patient she should not eat porridge as it gives you cellulite and has prescribed a restricted 1800 cal/day (less on non training days) to a 27 year old female athlete training 10 times a week that would be great.

If we could also let the previous physio know that it is not “normal for female athletes to miss periods” 🤬

And the GP that a history of stress fractures, a tendency to overtrain, disordered eating and irregular periods are all red flags for REDs.

Astounded and angry that this patient has been given misinformation to the detriment of her physical and mental health by other healthcare professionals.

We must do better!

I’ve written a little blog about running performance, injuries and how we use .ai technology as part of our assessment

I’m using the same technology as past of my dissertation looking into how we can affect running performance through exercise prescription 🤓

So far the data is showing positive impacts on global running economy, improvements in stability in the stance phase of gait and a greater ability to attenuate ground impact forces…basically it appears to make you better at running and probably less likely to get injured 🥳

Hello old friend! ❤️

It’s been 22 years since I bought this book for my undergrad degree 😱

I never thought that I’d still have it all these years later, let alone actually need to use it.

The second (and final year 🥳) of my MSc is here already and it still reminds me of being at uni all those years ago.
