Awesome physio session this morning with 🤙🏼

Erin is a competitive olympic weightlifter and has been suffering from shoulder pain for the past 6 months, especially in overhead positions 🏋🏼‍♀️

Having worked on some fundmental scapular control last session, today we looked at improving Erin’s overhead stability 💪🏼

1️⃣ We started off with some stability ball wall presses in four point kneeling, adding in some clockwise and anti-clockwise rotations.

2️⃣ We then moved over to the bar where we worked on getting Erin used to maintaining a strong overhead position with some overhead shrugs.

3️⃣ Finally, we put it all together and went for some heavy strict presses - PAIN FREE! 😱

MAGIC!💥

Since the end of 2021 he has been working with our fantastic physio and has made some incredible progress⚡️

In todays session we looked to progress Jamie’s single leg stability and control using a simple step down exercise from an increasingly high ‘box’ 📦

Check out that control!!😎👍🏼

We were proud to welcome the North East’s most famous ‘power couple’ to Pro Health Physio today - Julia Mills and Sam Parker 🙌🏼

Julia is one of the best female strength athletes on the planet and has competed in both the UK’s and World’s Strongest Woman competitions 🏋🏼‍♀️ She has also recently become the first woman in the UK to total an incredible 600kg in a powerlifting competition! 😱

Sam is equally as impressive, with multiple strength world records to his name! 🏆 He was also the first British lifter to ever hit a 1000kg powerlifting total in a raw competition, boasting an enormous 420kg squat, a 245kg bench press, and a 335kg deadlift! 🏋🏻‍♂️

It was great to spend some time with both of them today, chatting through their training and discussing some new ideas as they look to make some positive changes in 2022 ✅

Got ‘chocolate’ milk?🥛🍫

There is an increasingly large body of literature emerging that supports the use of chocolate milk for endurance athletes post-exercise 🏊🏻‍♀️🚴‍♀️

Whilst evidence also exists for its effectiveness intra-exercise, its arguably a bit ‘heavy’ for many sports🤢

What do you think? 🧐

Really refreshing to see some honesty in regards to obesity in the UK! 🍩

What are peoples thoughts though? 🤔

Do we need more people to simply open up and be honest with themselves or is it a far more complex situation than that? 🧐

What do we think?👇🏼
