“I’ve got flat feet… that’s why I’m in pain.”

Not necessarily.

A huge percentage of people have low arches…
and have zero pain.

So flat feet alone aren’t the problem.

Structure doesn’t always equal symptoms.

What matters more is how your foot functions:
• Can it handle load?
• Can it control movement?
• Is it strong through different positions?

Because you can have:
Flat feet with no pain or “perfect” arches with pain
Pain is usually about capacity and control, not just structure.

So instead of trying to “fix” your foot shape…
focus on building strength and tolerance through it.

That’s what actually keeps you moving pain-free.

“My ribs flare… my lats must be tight.”

Not always.

This is one of the most common things I see.

People spot rib flare and go straight to stretching:
Lats, hip flexors, anything that might be “tight”.

But nothing changes.

Because rib flare isn’t always a mobility issue, more often, it’s a control issue.

If you can’t control your ribcage position under load or movement, your body will default to that flared position.

No amount of stretching fixes that.

What actually matters:
• Can you control your ribcage with breathing?
• Can you maintain position under load?
• Do you have the strength to hold it when it matters?

Before you chase “tight muscles”…

ask whether you actually have control.

Because if you don’t, the problem keeps coming back.

Shoulder pain in bar work?
It’s not always your rotator cuff.

This is one of the most common assumptions I see.

Straight away people jump to cuff exercises… banded work, external rotations, hoping it’ll fix the problem.

But your shoulder doesn’t work in isolation.
One muscle that often gets overlooked is the serratus anterior.

Its job?

To keep your shoulder blade stable and “glued” to your rib cage while you move.

And it’s essential for:
• Handstand press ups
• Snatches & jerks
• Wall walks
• Bar gymnastics

If it’s not doing its job properly, your shoulder loses stability…

and other muscles start picking up the slack.

That’s when pain starts to show up.

Before you default to “weak rotator cuff”…

Ask yourself:
Is your shoulder actually stable under load?

Because strength without control is where problems begin.

Becky came to me with pain in her shoulder, after an assessment I tracked it down to some instability in her lower traps.

As a result this was causing pain when doing any over head movements!

We worked through a range of physiotherapy as well as massage and smart programming as Becky is a 1-1 PT client as well! Resulting in her now having no pain when over head and worked towards completing in her first competition after completing the CrossFit open!

My diary is back open so get booked in for an assessment and we will sort any issues you have to make sure you’re back moving 100% again!

If you’re struggling with shoulder stability, give these 4 exercises ago to improve your shoulder stability over head…

Stability exercises are designed to improve control, not just strength.

• Scapular control
• Rotator cuff engagement
• Joint stability through range
• Better shoulder mechanics during training

If your shoulders feel unstable, weak overhead, or irritated after sessions, these are worth adding into your warm up or accessory work.

Save this and try them before your next upper-body session!

Ted Has been working with us for the past 6-9 months with issues that he was having with his back!

It started out as the back but we soon tracked the issue to his knee and with a mixture of massage and physiotherapy we have manged to get him moving 10xs better with pain symptoms drastically reduced!

If you’re suffering with pain when exercising, tracking the issue is the main port of call! Painkillers and a massage gun will not solve your issues!

Get booked in today for your assessment!

Shoulder pain? Here’s your band. Do external rotations.
Sound familiar?

Banded external rotations aren’t bad.

The rotator cuff isn’t the enemy.

But automatically blaming shoulder pain on a “weak rotator cuff” is oversimplified.

Your shoulder doesn’t work in isolation.

It relies on:
✔️ Scapular control
✔️ Thoracic movement
✔️ Load management
✔️ Technique under fatigue
✔️ The biceps tendon
✔️ Your training volume

If you’re pressing heavy, pulling high volume, or lacking overhead control…

a few banded reps at the end of a session won’t fix the root cause.

Rehab shouldn’t be random exercises.

It should answer one question:
Why is the shoulder being overloaded in the first place?

Sometimes it is cuff weakness.

Often, it’s bigger than that.

Don’t just strengthen the symptom.
Understand the system

26/02/2026

You can deadlift big numbers.
You can squat heavy.
You can press serious weight.

But if you don’t have control and stability behind that strength… your joints pay the price.

Strength without stability is force without direction.

When your body can’t control a joint properly, that load has to go somewhere:

➡️ Knees
➡️ Hips
➡️ Lower back
➡️ Shoulders

That’s when you start hearing:

“I’m strong… but my knee keeps flaring up.”

“My back feels tight after heavy days.”

“My shoulder clicks when I press.”

It’s not always a strength issue.

It’s often a control issue.

Real performance isn’t just about producing force.
It’s about controlling it.

Build stability, Own the position, Then load it.

That’s how you train hard and stay pain-free.

Your current injury probably didn’t start where it hurts.

If rehab was just about fixing the pain you feel right now… it would be simple.

But pain is usually the final chapter, not the beginning of the story.

That ankle sprain from years ago.

The shoulder you “rested” but never properly strengthened.

The hamstring you rushed back from.
Your body adapts.
It compensates.
It shifts load.

And eventually, something else starts to complain.

When I assess injuries, I’m not just looking at the painful area.

I’m looking at your history.

✔️ What changed?
✔️ What didn’t fully recover?
✔️ Where are you now overloading?

If we only treat the symptom, it keeps coming back.

Rehab isn’t just about calming pain.

It’s about understanding the timeline that led you here.
Because where it hurts… is rarely where it started.
