Exercise is My Secret Weapon: How Moving Your Body Helps Your ADHD Brain

If you read our recent blog and thought, "Wait, is that my brain you're talking about?"—especially the part about endless procrastination, constant distraction, and those intense mood swings—then you've found your people.

As more adults, particularly those over 40, are discovering that their lifelong struggles are actually signs of ADHD (diagnosed or undiagnosed), the search for effective coping strategies is on.

We promised to share the best hacks, and the single most powerful tool in the ADHD management toolkit—beyond therapy and medication—is surprisingly simple: Exercise.

It’s not just about physical fitness; it’s about giving your brilliant but chaotic brain the chemical reset it craves.

So if your over 40 and want to find your reset Jade Fitness & FUNctional Movement Classes are for you!!

Resilience & Strength: My Superpowers to Overcoming Obstacles

Life truly loves to throw curveballs, doesn't it? It’s a guarantee—job loss, heartbreaks, health scares, or just a relentless run of bad luck. We all face them.
2025 has been a year of contradictions for me, and one of the biggest hit me out of the blue late last year: a diagnosis of Cardiomyopathy. Suddenly, I was struggling to breathe, to work, or even just to stand up. It was a massive shock and a frightening obstacle.

But here I am, moving towards my own new 'normal,' and I owe so much to an awesome naturopath and a great cardiologist. More than that, though, I owe it to the person I’ve become because of all the past challenges I have faced.

Sitting here, reflecting on everything in the past 20 years—divorce, single parenthood, the sting of a previous business closing, the torture and joys of Kung Fu training and gradings, navigating a new relationship including blending a family and the fear (and reward) of launching a new business (especially through the last five unpredictable years)—I realise those obstacles weren't just hurdles; they were my training ground.

The two things that have truly kept me sane, besides some very special people, Monica, Jimmy, Graham, Linda, I'm lucky to have in my corner are:

Resilience: Knowing in my bones that I have done it before.
Strength: The quiet confidence that I can do it again.
If I can push through unexpected heart issues, business closures, and the sheer grit required to rebuild a life—time and time again—then I promise you, you can do it too.

Don't let the obstacle define you. Let your ability to overcome it be the story. You have everything you need inside you. 💖

Is your Plantaris Tendon causing you calf pain?

Even though it's small, a tight plantaris tendon can cause big problems for your calves, leading to pain, discomfort, and stiffness!

Here's how:
Increased Tension: A tight plantaris tendon can create tension and pain.
Reduced Flexibility: It can limit your ankle's range of motion, affecting activities like walking or running and even increasing injury risk.
Referred Pain: Pain might even radiate to your Achilles or lower back!

Interestingly, a tight plantaris tendon can contribute to plantar fasciitis symptoms, Addressing plantaris tightness can help to alleviate symptoms commonly associated with plantar fasciitis.

Don't let a tight plantaris tendon keep you from pain-free walking. If you're experiencing calf pain or tightness, it's essential to find the root cause and get the right treatment. This could involve stretching, massage, or physical therapy.

Ready to take the first step towards happier calves?

Three Years Strong: A Community Transformed

Move

It's hard to believe it's been nearly three years since Jade Fitness & FUNctional Movement opened its doors. The journey has been incredible, and the results even more so.

Watching our community members transform has been truly inspiring. They've not only seen physical changes—increased flexibility, range of motion, and balance—but also significant mental and emotional growth. Their confidence in their own abilities has soared, their self-belief has strengthened, and beautiful friendships have blossomed within our close-knit community.

For those of us over 40, life often prioritises our children and careers. We sometimes find ourselves feeling isolated and neglecting our own health. This over 40's class has been a game-changer. It's a space where we can focus on ourselves, regain our strength, and rediscover our confidence.

Let's keep moving forward together!
