25.01.2022 Regression of exercises is often necessary to allow the neuromuscular system to develop patterns that we are trying to train . Using things like bands or slides to help reduce the load requirements of an exercise can help us expose those tissues to a stimulus that would otherwise be beyond its capacity . @ruby_fifield is performing a regressed razor curl with the help of slides and the tricep machine @luke.esposito_ ... . #team4d #injurytoperformance #builtinthebasement See more

20.01.2022 What is Osteopaenia? Osteopaenia is definted by a lower than normal body density. Having a low Bone mineral density (BMD) is an indication of weaker bone strength, resulting in higher chances of breaking ... Osteopaenia is diagnosised with a T-score between -1.0 and -2.5 (a T-score -2.5 and below is a diagnosis of osteoporosis). How does exercise help? Ground contact exercises will help build and promote strong bones, these can include walking, jumping, skipping and/or weight lifting. Exercises including swimming or cycling are beneficial for building muscle strength, not so much bone strength. Balance is also an important aspect of exercise prescription particular with age.

18.01.2022 - The gastrocnemius and soleus muscles play a vital role in the rehabilitation of most knee and ankle injuries. They work as one of the main force producers when running and jumping and often are exposed to forces in excess of 6x body weight A simple calf raise endurance test is an important tool as it can provide insight into your capacity to produce and maintain forces... When completing this test we look at: Heel height Repetitions Ability to control the movement both eccentrically and concentrically Fatigue Weakness Muscular bulk/hypertrophy Achilles elasticity It's a easy task to set up with both hands on a wall for balance, look to push off the big toe and have a 2 sec concentric and eccentric (up and down) phase for each calf raise! Failure is considered when: 1. Using hands to help with the heel raise 2. Decreased heel height or inability to complete a repetition 3. Unable to maintain tempo mentioned above #team4d #builtinthebasement #injurytoperformance

05.01.2022 What is Cardiovascular disease (CVD)? CVD is a group of disorders involving the heart and blood vessels. Some common CVD are corony heart disease, peripheral arterial disease and cerebrovascular disease.
