What an incredible weekend at the Novice Classic Powerlifting Meet! 🏋️‍♂️✨

From first comp-day jitters to smashing PRs on the platform, we loved watching lifters step up with confidence, grit, and heart. So proud to have supported these rising powerhouses! 💪🔥

Huge congratulations to all athletes for taking that first step and proving that everyone starts somewhere and strength grows with every rep. 👏

Big thanks to the organisers for having us be part of this empowering experience 🤝

Mobility Training for Injury Prevention & Recovery in Runners (Recap of the Standard Chartered Lunch Time Running Clinic)

From ankle dorsiflexion to hip extension and thoracic rotation. We break down the mobility essentials every runner needs. But here’s the twist: mobility is important, but strength and smart load management still take the lead in keeping injuries at bay. 💪✨

Nutrition during perimenopause isn’t about restriction. It's about supporting your changing body 💫

As hormones shift, your body’s needs do too.
Fuel recovery, strength, and energy with:
💥 Creatine: supports muscle and performance
🥩 Protein: maintains lean mass and boosts recovery
🐟 Omega-3: reduces inflammation and supports brain & heart health.

Small, consistent changes can make a big difference in how you feel and move through this phase.

If your sumo stance feels blocked off or you’re compensating with your lower back, address the hips first.

Common mobility/activation deficits
• Limited hip external rotation
• Tight adductors/hip flexor
• Poor glute loading

Give these drills a try before your next deadlift session:
Sitbone mobilisation (using stick) - 1-2 rounds of 10 breaths
Incline Pigeon Good mornings, 2 sets of 8 reps/side
Loaded Butterfly Stretch, 2 sets of 3-5 reps x 8-10s/hold
Dynamic Copenhagen Side planks, 2 sets of 8 - 12 reps/side
Adductor Foam roll, 30 sec/side
Side kick side bend, 1-2 sets of 12 reps

All drills should be performed pain-free. Regress or skip if discomfort persists.
Save this post to increase your sumo deadlift!

A usable arch isn’t cosmetic, it shortens the range of motion and protects the shoulders. If you can’t hold the shape, look at where you’re losing it.

Common mobility/control deficits
Poor thoracic extension
Tight lats/pecs
Weak scapular retractors
Relying on the lumbar spine to arch

Give these drills a go to improve your arch:
- Loaded Thoracic Spine Extensions (Full exhale, inhale in extended position) - 20-30s, or until relaxed
- Bench Unrack Iso, 3 sets of 8 - 10s hold
Cue: “Top down” Arch setup (Cervical to thoracic, don’t try to arch the lumbar first)
- Paused wide grip lat pulldown (Thoracic extension paired with scap depression/retraction) 1-2 sets of 10 reps

All drills should be performed pain-free. Regress or skip if discomfort persists.
Share this with someone who needs a more stable setup.🏋️‍♂️

Does your low bar squat feel uncomfortable or unstable (i.e. bar rolling on your back)? Most of the time, it is not a strength issue but likely a mobility & positioning issue.🤨💪🏻

Common mobility deficits:
• Limited shoulder external rotation
• Tight pecs/lats muscles
• Limited thoracic extension

Try these drills:
Better Band Pull Apart, 2-3 sets of 8-10 breaths
Squat unrack isometrics, 5-8 sets of 5 - 10s hold
Weighted W stretch, 2 sets of 6 reps x 5s hold/rep
Barbell Lat Stretch, 2 sets of 3-5 reps x 10s hold/rep

All drills should be performed pain-free. Regress or skip if discomfort persists.
Save this for your next squat day!
