📣Let's talk about PATIENCE 🫣 We live in a world with instant gratification all around us... but as we know all too well, the REALLY GOOD things (like health, recovery & wellness) TAKES TIME 🕰️ there's a reason why no one has developed a quick fix for injury recovery or rehabilitation! Give your body the time it needs to work through the phases... and we can promise you, you WILL come out stronger than ever before 💪🏻 small & slow progress is still progress! We're here to keep you committed even when patience takes a back seat (we got you 🤗)

This is our FAVORITE SHOULDER STABILITY exercise 😁🙌🏻 Moving on from our previous shoulder Ws and Ts, THIS is the big brother of them all 💪🏻
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The "V to W" ex is a great way to start working on 'dynamic stability' which basically means keeping your shoulder blade stable and still, whilst your arms are moving in a different plane. This is also the most functional of the 'alphabet' exercises - as we often use our arms overhead during daily tasks, so we're not just doing this for the fun of it, it actually has a purpose👌🏻😁
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Give this one a try! 10-12 reps x 2 sets - and remember to keep those shoulders set DOWN & AWAY FROM YOUR EARS throughout 😉
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
✔️healthy minds
✔️prolonged lifespans
✔️pain-free lives
✔️happy lives
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Make your body (& health) a priority... and it will repay you for the rest of your life 🤗 it's that simple!

🔹 Shoulder T Lifts 🔹 Following on from our last video where we looked at the 'W', this exercise is the next step in progressing your shoulder blade stability 💪🏻
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The "T" lift is great for middle trap activation which is going to help keep your shoulder blade in a stable position, whilst you move your arm freely 🙌🏻 this means that finally your stabilisers will be doing what they are meant to do, and your big functional muscles don't need to jump in & compensate - it's a WIN WIN 😁
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Achieving stability & control in our shoulder blades not only alleviates shoulder pain, aches & niggles... it ALSO reduces the chances of future injuries. So if you were looking for a reason to BULLETPROOF your shoulders...this is it! 😉
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
✅ Try doing 10-12 reps x 2-3 sets

🔹World OBESITY day🔹
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
It is predicted that 51% (4 billion) of the world's population will be obese/overweight within the next 12 years 😲😣 unfortunately the world we live in increases our risk for obesity (access to processed foods, prolonged sitting, technology, etc). The time to act/intervene is NOW!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Obesity isn't simply about the aesthetics of being overweight, it is a classified as an actual DISEASE due to it's detrimental effects on the body and our health. Swipe through 👉🏻 to learn more and to find out how a bio can help 💪🏻

📣NEW at the practice! We are now offering BODY COMPOSITION ASSESSMENTS 🙌🏻
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
We all know by now that weight (the number on the scale) is not the best measure to tell us what our bodies are made up of 🙈 so instead of only chasing our goal weight, we should rather aim to get all of the following parameters into a good healthy range:
*BMI (weight to height ratio)
*Body Fat %
*Muscle Mass %
*Visceral Fat Level (type of fat surrounding our organs)
*Resting Metabolic Rate (how much energy your body burns at rest)
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The OMRON BF511 allows us to measure all these parameters in less than 1 min. It is clinically approved with clinically valid results 👌🏻
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Get in touch today to book your body composition assessment 😊

Got shoulder issues? 😣 chances are that you need to work on your stabilisers! As a Bio, 90% of shoulder issues I see stem from a lack of scapular (shoulder blade) stability - which means that when you move your arms, your shoulder blade is moving all over the place 🫣 this leads to reduced space in your shoulder joint which can irritate tendons and ligaments causing inflammation! So.. are you ready to start stabilising? 💪🏻
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
THE W is a great place to start - it activates your middle traps and rhomboids 👏🏻
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Do 12-15 reps x 2 sets every 2nd day 🔥 you'll start to notice improved control over your shoulders and an improvement in your posture!
