All activity requiring near-maximal or maximal int

All activity requiring near-maximal or maximal intensity activity should be preceded by a warm-up, but the days of a quick static stretch are long gone. An ideal warm up allows the brain and spine to optimise communication to the muscles, provide positive blood flow to the required muscles, prepare the cardio-respiratory system and promote proprioception, coordination flexibility and focus. The optimal warm up should be dynamic in nature, start slow and gradually increase in pace and intensity to match the level required for performance. The athlete should raise a light sweat but not feel overly heavy or fatigued and should concentrate on each movement as they're being performed. A good warm up is one of the best ways to prevent injuries occurring so if you're not sure if yours is adequate, ask us how! #warmup #sportsphysiotherapy #staticsucks #thejointphysio

The calf muscles are the major contributors to propulsion when running and the deep-lying soleus muscle is the true workhorse. It needs to have good strength and excellent endurance! A runner should be able to perform 30 single bent knee heel raises with good technique! #running #calfmuscles #thejointphysio

There is increasing evidence promoting the importa

There is increasing evidence promoting the importance of mind & muscle communication. We know that ensuring good communication between the brain, spine and muscle (nervous system) is essential for optimal performance, but actively thinking about engaging the muscles you are training elicits even better results. So don't just go through the motions, actually think about those glutes contracting as you squat for an even bigger butt burn! #mindmuscleconnection #musclemindfulness #thejointphysio

Finding it difficult to stay motivated to keep act

Finding it difficult to stay motivated to keep active and reach your fitness goals? Make yourself accountable by finding a training partner and scheduling in your workouts together. It's always much harder to hit the snooze button when you know someone's waiting for you! #exercisebuddy #thejointphysio

Sleep is one of the primary drivers of recovery and refreshment for your body and mind. Lack of zzz's has been shown to significantly decrease reaction times, increase injury rates, decrease physical performance and enhance error rate on the sporting field. Make sure you're getting enough! #sleep #thejointphysio

If you answered 'yes' to more than one of these, i

If you answered 'yes' to more than one of these, it is quite likely that your autonomic nervous system (the system for 'fight vs flight' mode) may be extremely sensitive and difficult to control. Thankfully, we have come a long way in our understanding of these symptoms and how to gain greater control over them through simple exercises. So if you'd like to know more, come on in and we'll give you the keys to control these frustrating symptoms. #DMApilates #thejointphysio #directionalbias #thejointphysio #takecontrolofyourbody # callusnow

Just about everyone who has played a ball sport ha

Just about everyone who has played a ball sport has jarred a finger, while getting a finger caught in an opponent's jumper can be nasty. Finger injuries are notoriously poorly dealt with and can have significant long-term implications, especially for people who rely on their hands for their livelihood. Scar tissue is laid down very quickly in fingers and consequently need to be dealt with fast. #thejointphysio

Copped a heavy knee to the thigh at footy? Difficu

Copped a heavy knee to the thigh at footy? Difficulty walking? Lots of pain and swelling? Recovery is key. Apply ice initially to cool the area. Add compression and unload the affected limb for the first 48hours. Do not take NSAIDS (e.g. ibuprofen) as this will initially thin the blood and increase bleeding.

You may start gentle stretching/walking/cycling after 48hours if it is pain free. But if it is still very sore after this period, it important to see your physio! #thejointphysio
