Robert Scott Fitness Qualified Personal Trainer | Performance & Posture Coach | Train online - https://linktr.ee/RSFONLINE

My focus is to get your body moving, working and feeling better. Rejecting the traditional approach of addressing areas of concern in isolation, my programmes recognise that the body is made up of a complex set of sub-systems which are key to recovery and performance. This corrective care enables the restoration of freedom through mind, breath and movement so you can perform at your best. A Robert Scott Fitness training program is completely unique to you. Using a range of assessments programmes are custom built to move your body towards peak performance. Key focus areas that we'll explore together include mobility, breath, habits, stress management, sustenance and athleticism. All programmes include regular adjustments, one-on-one calls or sessions and progressions throughout. Whether your goal is sports related, self-esteem driven, or you just want to strengthen weak areas, address pain or better perform in everyday tasks, I can design a program specifically to meet your needs and goals, improving performance while preventing injury.

One of the reasons people get discouraged from cooking is that it can start to feel pretty frantic.

You’re trying to chop something while something else is already in the pan, looking for ingredients as you go, and suddenly the whole kitchen feels a lot more chaotic than it needs to.

Doing the prep first makes a huge difference.

Get everything out, chop what needs chopping, and have it all sitting there ready to go before you start cooking. Even using a few small containers or bowls for your prepped ingredients means you can just add things to the pan as you need them.

It makes the actual cooking flow a lot better because you’re not constantly stopping and starting.

It also makes the clean-up easier. Once the prep is done, you can start clearing things away and cleaning as you cook, rather than being left with the entire kitchen to deal with at the end.

A little bit more organisation at the start can make the whole process feel considerably easier.

How about we just get into it and "mobilize" as we go? 🤷‍♂️

When we think about a strong back or a strong core, I think it’s easy to picture someone who can brace hard and keep everything really solid.⠀
⠀
And there are definitely times where that’s exactly what you want.⠀
⠀
But I don’t think strength should mean needing to hold your body in the same position all the time.⠀
⠀
A spine should be able to flex, extend, rotate and side bend. Then, when the task requires it, you should also be able to create enough tension to control or resist those movements.⠀
⠀
For some people, the first step isn’t necessarily adding more stiffness.⠀
⠀
It can be giving them a few more positions to move through, getting the ribcage and pelvis moving a little more freely, and then gradually loading those options.⠀
⠀
The goal isn’t to avoid tension or bracing.⠀
⠀
It’s being able to use it when you actually need it, rather than having it switched on all the time.⠀

I hear that Dimitri is doing fantastic. He's hit a few PRs since this interview. Overhead pressing is enjoyable, and he's can finally making consistent progress all over.
The days of "warming up" his rotator cuff is nothing but a distant memory.

Be like Dimitri 👍

If you ever notice your toes doing a little tap dance while you're doing lower body exercises. It's likely that struggle to "ground" yourself.⠀
⠀
Being able to get heavy through your feet or foot and "feel" the ground will help you maintain tension, create space in the pelvis and start to allow joints to rotate freely. In turn, allowing muscles to respond better.⠀

Sometimes just getting someone supported, breathing into a position, or working on a bit more protraction or retraction can make the shoulder feel completely different before you’ve even really loaded it.⠀
⠀
Then from there I’ll start adding things back in pretty slowly.⠀
⠀
That might just be one set of a cable exercise with the upper arm fixed, a light hold, or eventually a row, pulldown or press.⠀
⠀
I’m usually far more interested in how the shoulder responds later that day and the next day than how much someone can tolerate in one session.⠀
⠀
The aim is just to give the area a few more options, then gradually build back the movement and load it can handle.⠀

Sitting at a desk for 8 hours can leave you feeling pretty stiff and uncomfortable. But so can standing for 8 hours.

Even people who spend their days moving around, like builders, painters or electricians, can experience similar discomfort from repetitive movements or spending long periods in awkward positions.

I spend 6–8 hours a day on the gym floor, and even I notice it sometimes, particularly through my feet and lower body.

The point is, there isn't necessarily one perfect position to spend your day in. Our bodies benefit from variety.

Something I often do with clients is give them a few simple movements, visual drills or breathing drills they can use throughout their working day.

It might be something to help ease tension around the neck and shoulders, give the back a chance to move, or simply change how they're distributing their weight.

Even taking a minute or two every 30–60 minutes, when your job allows, can be a useful way to break up those long periods.

It's not about fixing your posture. It's simply about giving your body something different to do.
