Often what PROLONGS chronic injuries, aches and tightness is the wrong FOCUS.

When you are consumed by chronic aches and niggles, you're focused ON THE PAIN.

You're focused on what you DON'T WANT

NOT what YOU WANT (which is the solution)

You're running away from pain.

Now this is understandable and not your fault (We're not encouraged to think any other way)

But it's going to prolong whatever niggles, aches or tightness you have.

Leading to more frustration

The solution is focus on the opposite of pain which is a higher level of health, fitness strength, vitality.

THIS is focusing on what you WANT instead of what you DON'T WANT.

When you focus on WHAT YOU WANT, you're more likely to find it.

This is YOU in a problem solving mode.

This means a change of attitude in how you see your health and not just when you are in pain and discomfort

It's more of a lifestyle change of attitude.

You can't JUST want to live pain-free

You need to change something

And YOU need to sacrifice something in return.

Often the sacrifice is the habits that have stuck with you for years.

You need to break the cycle

✅Have you got health goals? Do they excite you?
✅Look at your opinion of yourself - are you putting limiting beliefs on what you can do?
✅Look at your stress levels
✅Look at your breathing patterns
✅Look at what you're eating - Is it healthy (for you? - this is the important part)
✅Look at what you're spending your time doing (Does it Inspire you or Stress you?)
✅Look at your exercise regime - Is it focused on reaching a higher level of fitness and strength and do you enjoy it?
✅Are you looking for new information on how to be stronger and healthier?

All the above play a massive part on whether you live with pain or without.

And addressing all these are an indication of you running towards a higher level of health and fitness.

And automatically leaving the pain behind.

It's looking at the problem from a different point of view

And its YOU taking the initiative and staying ahead of the game (or pain)

Fitness is a life-long evolution.

And because your body is evolving, so must YOU

Aim to be stronger, be fitter & healthier.

Should we feel the burn when we train?

Anti-glycolytic training protocols are training approaches that avoid relying on the glycolytic system, and it can be helpful to understand the science.

TIGHT MUSCLES WILL RUIN YOUR PERFORMANCE IN YOUR SPORT.

It just doesn't feel good to run when you feel tight. You feel sluggish. Every stride feels like an effort.

But you can change this with a couple of easy steps.

Step 1. Put your phone away for about an hour prior to warming up. In fact be away from any devices. Your phone in many ways will increase stress levels and this is one of the reasons why you feel tight and sluggish

Step 2. Learn to Breathe and meditate in that hour before you warm up. This will energise your body.

When you do these 2 things, you will feel more muscle looseness and more energy for your session

If you would like to discover more about increasing energy levels and relieving tight muscles, book a massage session or muscle activation with yours truly.

DO YOU KNOW WHAT CAUSES INJURY?
-

Weak muscles. Why?

Weak muscles don't pull their weight causing other muscles to overwork and eventually grumble, cause pain and then eventually injure.

DO YOU KNOW WHERE YOUR WEAK MUSCLES ARE?

you should - It could mean the difference to keeping injury free and taking your performance in your sport to a new level.

Ever heard the saying "you're only as strong as your weakest link." Well this is where it matters.

Those weak muscles could be holding back your performance in so many ways and causing you pain and injury.

MY NEW MUSCLE TESTING SESSION in Taunton will identify those weak muscles. I will then give you a program to strengthen them.

Benefits of the session and subsequent strength program may include all or any of the following.

Lower the risk of further injury
Decreased pain
Better posture
Increased flexibility
Greater strength gains in major lifts in the gym
More energy.

This, I m sure you agree will enhance your performance in your sport as well as keep you injury free.

For athletes and sprinters, good posture is paramount for fast, relaxed sprinting. In this video, I explain how bad posture creates more effort in each stride and as a result, more tightness. However good posture creates lightness and focused movement on good sprinting technique. Good sprinting technique cannot exist with bad posture. As always, it's important to go back to basics of body positioning for the body to perform for you in your sprinting.
