Honoured to be part of so many healing and strengthening journeys 🤍 Behind every exercise is a story of resilience, patience, and growth.

From pouring into my own training and detailed assessments,
to client breakthroughs and the quiet pockets in between,
admin, refuelling, resetting, this is the rhythm of my days.

May this serve as a reminder: your body is capable of more than you think. ✨

What is a biokineticist and what do we actually do? 🤍
It’s more than rehab. It’s movement with purpose.
We assess, correct, strengthen and restore, whether you’re recovering from injury, managing pain, or just wanting to move better and feel stronger in your body.

It’s not just exercise. It’s clinical, structured, and specific to you. If you’ve ever wondered whether biokinetics could help you, send me a DM. I’m happy to chat. 🤍✨

Your body doesn’t just need strength. It needs control.
Balance training challenges your stability, your focus, your joint integrity and your nervous system — all at once.

It reveals imbalances. It sharpens coordination. It strengthens the small stabilisers that protect your bigger movements.

This is where prevention meets performance. Because real strength is being able to own every position you move through.

Turning your toes out doesn’t “cheat” squat depth — it respects hip anatomy.

Externally rotating the femur allows the hip to move into flexion with abduction and external rotation, which increases joint clearance between the femoral neck and the acetabulum.
This delays early femoroacetabular impingement and allows greater squat depth without forcing pelvic or lumbar compensation.

Now let’s address the squat police 🚨
The idea that the torso must stay upright is a misunderstanding of squat mechanics.

In a loaded squat, the barbell must remain aligned over the mid-foot to maintain balance and minimise unnecessary joint stress. As the hips travel posteriorly and inferiorly, the torso must incline forward to keep the centre of mass stacked over the base of support.
This forward torso angle is an expected and necessary adaptation, influenced by femur length, hip structure, and bar position — not poor technique.

Forcing an artificially upright torso often results in:
• loss of depth
• increased knee dominance
• lumbar flexion (“butt wink”)
• compensatory movement patterns

A good squat is defined by:
✔ neutral spinal alignment
✔ bar path over mid-foot
✔ joint motion that matches individual anatomy

Not by how upright it looks. 🏋️‍♀️

📏Skinfold Assessments

A skinfold assessment is a safe, non-invasive method used to estimate body fat percentage by measuring the thickness of skinfolds at specific anatomical sites using specialised callipers.

In biokinetics, we don’t rely on the scale alone. Two people can weigh the same but have very different body compositions. Skinfold assessments allow us to understand how much of your body is made up of fat versus lean muscle, which is far more meaningful for health, rehabilitation, and performance.

Why biokineticists use skinfold assessments:
✔️ To establish an accurate baseline before starting a programme
✔️ To monitor changes in body composition over time
✔️ To personalise rehabilitation and exercise prescription
✔️ To assess health-related risk factors linked to excess body fat
✔️ To track progress in a realistic and sustainable way

Skinfold assessments are quick, reliable when performed by a trained professional, and best used alongside strength, mobility, and cardiovascular assessments to give a complete picture of your health.
