Remember Alex?

Just to remind you, Alex has Huntington’s disease, which is a neurodegenerative disorder. But he is the embodiment of “don’t let your disability define you”. The amount of grit, tenacity and heart this guy shows every time he’s in is off the charts.

Apparently pumping out pull ups wasn’t enough of a challenge for him… in a few weeks he is going to be doing a full Hyrox.

Solo.

Check the sled push, he’s not messing around 🙌🏻

Most people that come through our facility think that core training = abs/sit ups.

Guys, it is SO MUCH more than that.

The core is a pressure and force transfer system that helps us create movement, resist movement, protect our spine and effectively transfer force through the body.

That’s why our training has to be more than just crunches.

Breathing, bracing, anti-rotation, carries, stability, rotation and controlling all of that under load.

It’s not just aesthetics, it’s a foundational piece to performance, resilience and longevity.

Your future self is living with the physical habits you build today.

Strength, movement, balance, capacity.

These aren’t just fancy buzzwords for performance and appearance.

They influence your future independence, resilience and quality of life.

The goal isn’t simply to live longer, it’s to stay capable while doing so!

The 4 minute mile stood unbroken for ages. Then in May 1954, Roger Bannister ran 3:59.4 in Oxford, England.

John Landry broke it 46 days later.

By the end of 1955, another 20 runners had achieved the impossible feat.

Now more recently, we’ve seen all sorts of measures taken to break the 2 hour mark of a marathon. Can it be done?

2 runners broke it in the SAME race!

When it comes to limits, they are rarely just physical. In fact, I would argue they are largely mental. Shaped by what we believe is possible.
And I’m not just talking about breaking world records… the same thinking applies to rehab.
What you think you can do, what you believe you’re capable of will set the ceiling.

“Just rest it” is one of the most common pieces of advice post injury. It’s also one of the most outdated.
Movement = medicine.

Swipe through to see WHY movement is the solution (and a few cases where rest is needed for specific reasons).

Think of this as your cue to get moving.

Life is there to be lived guys.
We all look forward to a long weekend, and if you happened to take it a tad far.. well we’re all human.

It’s easy to get stuck in that all or nothing mindset, but a few days off won’t hurt your progress.

Delaying getting back to work definitely will though.
Being consistent is not about being perfect.

It’s about resetting quickly when the speed bumps inevitably pop up.

Back to work team 💪🏻

HOW?

Grip strength isn’t just about your hands.
If reflects overall muscle strength, nervous system function and general physical capacity.

It’s basically a proxy for your whole-body health.

Especially in older adults. Higher muscular strength = lower risk of death.
Large cohort studies back this up with findings that even small reductions in grip strength are linked to increased risk of cardiovascular disease and all sorts of nasty things.

Bit heavy for a Monday morning, but it’s also a good kick up the bum to look at our week and make the time for physical activity - not just grip training, general full body training.

Your future self will thank you for it!

Exercise isn’t just about performance of aesthetics.

Research published in the BMJ has shown that, in some cases, exercise is as effective as medicine in reducing mortality long term.

Add to that, strong associations between:
Muscles strength 💪🏻
Grip strength ✊🏻
Mobility 🧘🏻
Cardiovascular health 🫁

…. And positive long term health.

It’s simple - movement isn’t optional, it’s foundational
