Whilst 🧠Concussion is one of those areas with poor lack of knowledge among not just the community, but also the medical field….theres another topic in a similar position.

🩸PERIMENOPAUSE🩸
Have a listen to this 45min clip in the car or during your next training session😉, discussing HRT and the study that sent many women years ago, stopping treatment overnight….get the facts do your research.

But importantly if a friend or someone discusses their symptoms and possie early onset, dont say ‘but your only….of age’. Get chatting with friends, it doesn’t have to be so Taboo.

Perimenopause can hit earlier than many know & the miss-conception is that you have to see a big change in your cycle/flow…however this can be one of the last symptoms before menopause kicks in proper!
Not feeling yourself, noticing changes that seem unfamiliar, but you just blame ageing….don’t rule out Perimenopause.

Im with James on this one, so many Trainers, self-proclaimed nutritionists that give poor advice……

As soon as you have to say the word ‘cheat-day or treat day’, you need to ask yourself a bigger question about your Health.

Being health isnt just about looking the part through unrealistic strict nutrition and training, its about balance in all aspects of life….

Ps. by all means have a goal to do Ironman or body building comp, one has to be a bit obsessive about what you eat, by all means….respect…however on the other hand, doing events like this year in year out thats another story when it comes to ‘healthy’, but each to their own opinion on that one.

🫶 Exercise of the month,
not just beneficial for the Glutes, Hamstrings and stability training….but also a good way to check/train ones ‘nervous system’

🚨🧠🫨2 1/2yrs ago i couldn’t do this after my accident, let alone balance on 1leg for 10secs…..thats bad for anyone let alone a surfer, my brain wasnt happy and because of that my nervous system was shot and needed some serious training and tlc

🧘‍♀️ Our Nervous Systems should be prioritised more 🫨😵‍💫🤯…this
doesn’t mean sitting in a corner doing breathe work and ‘woo-woo
stuff’ as many may think, there is so much more and less we can do to help our systems.

The girls were ooooon last week.

of extra little ppl joining in the fun

🚨Have you got a very Sporty 10+ year old?

Eager to do some strength training….well they certainly don’t need a gym membership for those growing/developing bodies, but a little gentle stability and flexibility work creates great habits for active bodies and reduces risk of injury.

Then that roller can be used to rollout legs…win win 🙌.

All you parents can give it a go too😆

ps. If too hard for your current hip range, place the roller a little lower…hips must stay parallel throughout, slow and controlled movement, keeping foot, knee alignment on stable leg.

2-3x week on none-consecutive days (can roll and stretch alt days😉)
🏋️10x Each leg of Open/close gate alteranting +
🏋️8-10x Sngl RDL (hip
hinge only)

Need a challenge….Core strong and Shoulder Stability good, then this is for you.

‘Stir the pot🍯 plank’
1. Shoulders over elbows
2. Activate core and protract shoulders (open shoulder blades), activate quads for added stability
3. Whilst maintain hip and shoulder alignment, gently rotate clockwise for 30secs as shown, then anticlockwise for 30secs (or to your ability).

❌NOTE: If you feel the shoulder joints, or lower back this is not for you, then start with:
1. Floor kneeling plank
2. Floor On toes plank
3. SB static plank

Split Squat v Lunge

🦵🏿Static v Dynamic

🦵🏿Hypertrophy v Functional (balance)

🦵🏿Technique Focus & load safer to maintain on a split-squat, generally.

Personally love both options & to perform with 1xDB as pictured, but it depends on what your current goals are and your technique ability.
