17.01.2022 Some pretty cool preliminary research going on into the effects of Chiropractic adjustments on decreasing neural fatigue and increasing neural drive- Athletes under chiropractic care already know far too well the improvements it has on fatigue and performance, good to see scientific literature is catching up #performbetter #trainsmartandhard #chiropractic http://chiropracticscience.com/chiropractic-adjustments-re/

16.01.2022 So everyone keeps asking me how you actually launch a paramotor, here's a quick clip of my first ever beach launch and my 3rd ever flight, its not the best takeoff but you get the idea. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=awcdqe7WA7A
16.01.2022 Natural, unprocessed foods are the way to go.
15.01.2022 So over the last 1.5 weeks i have been away getting my paramotor licence. A lot of you guys were asking me what exactly is paramotoring so here you go, i took a few pics to show you all. Not a bad view flying over Byron Bay today and i even made a few big friends while i was there :)
13.01.2022 Hey guys and gals, this one's for all my gym going patient's trying to lose weight or put on muscle as well as athletes looking to maximise the benefits of their training. When focusing on maximum muscle synthesis for hypertrophy (ie GETTING BIGGER MUSCLES) or for maintaining a positive net protein balance (ie for INCREASING WEIGHT LOSS by increasing the resting metabolic rate) there are a few factors to consider for optimal performance. 1) How much protein should I ingest t...o maximise muscle hypertrophy? 2) When should I ingest protein to maximise muscle hypertrophy? 3) Does protein quality matter, and what should I be having? These questions have been explored in the following literature review http://journal.frontiersin.org//10.3/fphys.2015.00245/full My hot tips quick summary of the article as follows: 1)The amount of protein ingested after resistance exercise for full body maximum protein synthesis is thought to be 0.4g/kg/meal 2)Protein should be ingested within 3hrs of resistance exercise 3)Whey protein is superior within the 3hr window post exercise and should be supplemented with 3grams leucine Also it would appear that reaching contractile failure is required for optimal skeletal muscle growth and that the time under load rather than the weight or number of reps is most important for muscle growth. (note athletes need to consider greater variables as sport specific adaptations are of greater concern than mere muscle size).
13.01.2022 Beautiful morning in Mackay today, back from a run and wish the ww1 plane was up here so i could go for a fly. Imagine the view over Airlie beach right now.
11.01.2022 The wind was perfect after clinic yesterday afternoon :)

08.01.2022 Vitamin D supplementation cut infection risk by 50% in people that were deficient and by 10% in people with normal vitamin D levels. Overall, the reduction in risk of respiratory infection induced by vitamin D was similar to the protective effect of the flu vaccine. The study analyzed data from 25 randomized clinical trials conducted in 14 countries including the UK, USA, Japan, India, Afghanistan, Belgium, Italy, Australia and Canada. (Rhonda Pattrick, PHD)
08.01.2022 As always it is best to be well informed about all your treatment options before committing to a prescribed course of treatment. http://www.smh.com.au//back-pain-try-some-placebo-surgery-
07.01.2022 So i am now a published academic author, check out my first publish academic paper, it feels good to contribute to the ongoing high quality research that's occurring every day in the profession i love. #chiropractic http://chiromt.biomedcentral.com//10.1186/s12998-016-0094-y
05.01.2022 Paragliding control practice at Town beach, looking up at the glider is actually a really good exercise for upper thoracic spine extension, how often in the day do we actually take the chance to look up?
03.01.2022 Looking to train harder and be less sore after a training session? Is DOMS (delayed onset muscle soreness) slowing your training progress? Or are you just looking to decrease the levels of inflammation in the body? Latest research shows promising signs that 2.5grams twice daily of oral Curcumin (an active compound in turmeric) may actually prevent DOMS and enhance recovery of muscle performance!! Train harder and more frequently with less recovery time needed and less pain, that’s a win for athletes or anyone looking to increase their fitness! References: Dronbnic et al. (2015) Reduction of delayed onset muscle soreness by a novel curcumin delivery system (Meriva): a randomised, placebo- controlled trial. Nicole et al. (2015) Curcumin supplementation likely attenuates delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS).
03.01.2022 The latest research in hamstring injuries and the importance of correct rehabilitation to prevent the high likelihood of reinjury. One of the things we treat daily as Chiropractors.
02.01.2022 An inspired seminar with a sports hip and groin injury focus in Townsville today. Keeping on top of the latest advancements in research is necessary to provide you guys with the optimal diagnostic and treatment outcomes.
02.01.2022 Surgery is a valuable treatment option as a last resort intervention if conservative measures of treatment have not produced sufficient results, although not all surgery's should be considered equal
