Don’t Be Oblivious to Your Glute Medius! 🏋️‍♀️🍑

Glute Medius is one of the unsung heroes when it comes to stability, mobility, and overall functional movement.

Often overlooked, the Glute Medius plays a crucial role in stabilising your pelvis, supporting alignment, and controlling your leg movements during daily activities and sports, especially running. If you’re experiencing hip pain, lower back discomfort, or even knee issues, your Glute Medius might be to blame.

Here’s why it’s important to train this muscle:

Pelvic Stability: Helps prevent excessive tilting and keeps your hips aligned.
Prevents Injuries: A weak Glute Medius can lead to imbalances, increasing your risk of knee, hip, or lower back injuries.
Improves Posture: Strong glutes are key to maintaining an upright, neutral posture throughout the day.

“THE COMFORT ZONE” 😌

A person’s psychology state has become increasingly recognized as an important determinant of their pain experience 🧠

😨 Fear is the emotional reaction to an identifiable, specific and immediate threat, such as an injury 🤕

Fear can lead to avoidance of movement or activities that people with chronic pain associate with the exacerbation or occcurrence of pain ⭕.

Staying within “the comfort zone” due to fear can limit ones ability to recover

Remember: “The Magic Happens” outside of your “Comfort Zone” 🙌

When is comes to Tendon Injuries.. Rest is rarely Best ☝️

Exercise is the most evidence based treatment for tendinopathy – tendons need to be loaded progressively so that they can develop greater tolerance to the loads that an individual needs to endure in their day-to-day life.

Tendons symptoms can improve with rest however this generally means a reduction in the amount of load. This can give people a false sense of recovery as once load is reintroduced the tendon pain tends to return.

In a vast majority of cases tendinopathy will not improve without this vital load stimulus.

GROIN PAIN 🤔

A groin injury can be difficult to diagnose and treat due to its complex anatomy. Clinical and diagnostic findings are not always harmonious.
📝 Groin related injuries tend to be found in kicking sports such as football. Werner et al (2018) found that in football players hip and groin injuries contributed 1,812 out of 12,736 injuries (14%), with adductor-related injury as the most common of hip and groin injuries (n=1139, 63%) .
📚 Specific exercise programs focusing on groin injury prevention has been shown to reduce risk of injury by 41% in football players (Haroy et al 2019)
📚 REF: Werner J, Hägglund M, Ekstrand J 2018. Hip and groin time-loss injuries decreased slightly but injury burden remained constant in men’s professional football: the 15-year prospective UEFA Elite Club Injury Study British Journal of Sports Medicine53:539-546

💥 Boost Your Gains with Muscle Preactivation 💥

Did you know? Activating your muscles before a workout primes your body to achieve explosive power and control—especially during the eccentric (lowering) phase of movement. 🏋️‍♂️ Here’s why preactivation is a game-changer for performance and strength gains:

✨ Explosive Eccentric Control: Pre-activating muscles boosts their readiness, letting you control deceleration and stabilize more effectively. This helps handle heavier loads safely while priming fast-twitch muscle fibers for powerful rebounds.

✨ Enhanced Neuromuscular Connection: Preactivation wakes up those mind-muscle pathways, so when you hit those lifts or jumps, your muscles respond faster and with more precision. It’s like prepping your body’s ‘software’ before you hit ‘go’ on the hardware!

✨ Injury Prevention & Adaptation: By activating the right muscle groups, you reinforce joint stability and movement patterns, reducing the risk of injury and building strength that lasts. 🦵

Whether it’s for power, performance, or injury-proofing, a few minutes of preactivation can be the edge you need! 💯
