One of the most frequent reasons why padel players visit us is elbow pain, but it’s rarely the elbow itself.

We look at the following:

Training load and volume
Load capacity of forearm, biceps, triceps
Shoulder mobility and strength
Technique
Grip size or level

Then follow a progressive loading programme.

If you keep treating the elbow without looking at the bigger picture, it can be a slow slog to get back playing pain-free.

Thanks to our client Christopher stanford for sharing some footage from his training 🫡

Some journeys are truly special to be a part of.

I first met Ella when she was just 11 years old, and over the years I’ve had the privilege of being a small part of her journey.

Now, at just 15, Ella is heading to compete at the CrossFit Games - an incredible achievement built on years of hard work, discipline and dedication.

Wishing you the very best - I’ll be cheering you on!! 🎉

A huge congratulations to two of our sponsored athletes on their incredible performances recently! 👏🏆

🥊 Nathaniel Kalogiannidis stepped into the ring and came away with the win in his K1 International Title

💪 John Harker won North Yorkshire’s Strongest Man and is onto the Yorkshire finals this weekend

It’s a privilege to support dedicated athletes who put in the hard work day in, day out. Being part of their journey and helping them stay on top form, recover from injury, and perform at their best is something I’m really proud of.

Well done to you both. And best of luck to John this weekend 💪🏼

Tim recently sent this across and was happy for me to share:

“I’ve lost count of the number of times Megan at Axis Sports Clinic has kept me moving. Between throwing horses around, CrossFit sessions, and competing in bed races, I put my body through plenty of punishment, and Megan always manages to get me back on track.

Her knowledge, treatment, and advice are second to none. Whether it’s a ni**le, a strain, or just general wear and tear from an active lifestyle, she gets to the root of the problem and keeps me performing at my best.

I wouldn’t be without her. If you’re looking for someone who genuinely knows how to keep active people moving, I can’t recommend Megan and Axis Sports Clinic highly enough.
Tim Jarman”

Helping clients like Tim stay active, recover from setbacks, and keep doing what they enjoy is exactly why we do what we do.

Thank you for your kind words! 👊🏼

🏃‍♂️ Steal our 10-minute Run Prep Program

Most runners use the first kilometre as their warm-up… which usually means stiff legs, heavy breathing, and spending half the run trying to feel good.

Here’s the exact sequence we use before every run:

1️⃣ Tip Toe Walking – Load the calves & Achilles

2️⃣ Walking Overhead Lunge – Open up the hips, quads and prepare the knees under load

3️⃣ Single Leg RDL with Reach – Hamstring length, balance and single-leg stability

4️⃣ Lateral Hip Shifts – Wake up the glutes and prepare for side-to-side control

5️⃣ Walking A-Skip – Rhythm, coordination and hamstring prep

6️⃣ Walking B-Skip – Extends the A-Skip with hamstring kick

7️⃣ Open the Gate – Hip mobility and external rotation

8️⃣ A-Skips – Add power, bounce and rate of force development kicks in

9️⃣ B-Skips – Increase the intensity

🔟 Double Hop & Stick – Absorbing and producing force, we want to land well before we run

1️⃣1️⃣ Lateral Hop & Stick – Same principle, prime the ankles, knees and hips in the lateral plane

📍How to do it:
Use roughly a 10-metre strip. Perform each drill on the way out, then jog back. The whole routine takes less than 10 minutes.

Now when you start running:
✅ Your calves and Achilles are loaded
✅ Your glutes are firing
✅ Your hips are moving well
✅ Your body is ready to absorb and produce force

You’re not just warm… you’re ready to run. 🔥

Save this for your next run and let us know how much better that first kilometre feels! 👇

✨ Athlete Spotlight ✨

A huge congratulations to Sarah for representing Team GB at the IPF World Equipped Bench Press Championships in Poland 🇵🇱🇬🇧

Competing at this level is the result of countless hours of training, dedication, and determination. I had the pleasure of supporting her journey with sports massage and recovery sessions both before and after the competition, helping her prepare for the demands of competing on the world stage.

One of the best parts of my job is being able to work alongside athletes as they chase big goals, and it was a privilege to play a small part in this incredible achievement.

Congratulations again on representing Team GB and everything you’ve accomplished. Looking forward to seeing what’s next! 💪🏆
