25.01.2022 Femoroacetabular impingement: what can hip weakness and pain tell us? http://wp.me/p3ZZpB-17

25.01.2022 What do people with back pain want to get out of treatment? The results from a study indicated that improvements in pain intensity, pain relief and interference with physical functioning contributed to treatment satisfaction. Using manual therapy techniques aimed at improving movement, inhibiting pain and unloading injured tissues will ensure there is improvement in pain and function.

25.01.2022 Pre high intensity interval BIKE piccolo.. Give me strength!

24.01.2022 Cheeky pre-Easter lunch sesh. 40min swim. 4h45min bike. 20min run. With heavy heavy legs we powered on for another Easter weekend session. Mac uni, Bobbin, Akuna, West Head.... To be honest it was more so I can eat half a pavlova at lunch.

22.01.2022 Long ride again... Socks are for you Matt W. Balmain to West Head return. 4h30min. We lost the plot about 2hrs in: no energy, no food, no water, no power, no clue. Had to drag ourselves kicking and screaming back to Balmain. The heavy leg workouts towards the end of the week may have contributed. But in hindsight it is always good to get through a tough battle like that.... Bakery got hit that's for sure: powerade, coke, water, cheese & bacon roll and a chocolate eclair would've got a run if I had more money! Video through the beautiful Bayview Sydney, great cycling communication from Chris, albeit it unnecessary and over the top!

20.01.2022 "Success goes to the ones that do. Get up. Show up. Throw up if you have to. Do it afraid, but do it no matter"

19.01.2022 New kit too! Look out.

19.01.2022 Wet ride today out at West Head. 2hrs in the aeros in miserable conditions, but good to get a ride in like that.

19.01.2022 Long swim with efforts: 2.8k 300m warm up Repeat 5 times: 200m flat out, 300m recovery... Goal is to get heart rate to rise during efforts; the fitter you become the faster your heart rate will return to normal during the recovery. This is somewhat of a sport specific session, giving you a greater ability to deal with fluctuations in heart rate during the swim leg. Allows you to surge at the beginning, get into a pack or latch onto the slip stream of a faster swimmer as they motor past you. And actively recover faster as well!

19.01.2022 The Knee storming up Berowra Waters. Solid 5hrs into the legs today. Including both sides of the gorges: Berowra, Bobbin and Galston. 6 solid hills and a cheeky run off the bike has confidence high. We also did exact race day nutrition at our pre-planned intervals.

18.01.2022 Trying to get functional in the drink! Fast wetsuit swim, more to see if anything is going to bother us with the wetsuit on. Other then dehydration, suffocation, panic & sharks.

18.01.2022 Big 170k into the legs today.. Mac uni through Bobbin, Brooklyn, Mt White, Calga, Peats Ridge & Central Mangrove! Three of us out in the team kit looking the part!

18.01.2022 Great article on low back pain from a well respected professional. He/they always seem to be at the vortex of the information curve with anything health & fitness. If you have low back pain take a moment to skim the article.... http://fitness.mercola.com//18/lower-back-pain-treatment.a Key points: 1. In the Annals of Rheumatic Diseases, it was found that out of 291 health conditions included in the Global Burden of Disease 2010 Study, low-back pain ranked at the very top in terms of disability. 2. A related concern, is the fact that low back pain is also one of the primary reasons why people get hooked on prescription painkillers. 3. A study published in the Annals of Internal Medicine revealed that chiropractic care oftentimes provides greater relief than medication.

16.01.2022 Love a gorge. 5h45min on the bike today. Bobbin, Galston, Berowra, Brooklyn, Bobbin. Should be in the aeros more, but such is life. Nutrition plan is killing it!

16.01.2022 Quick swim 2k @ the old stomping ground: Macquarie Uni Aquatic Centre! Remember to maintain the strength of your shoulder external rotators when away from the pool. The symmetry of strength between the internal and external rotator muscles will reduce incidence of injury whilst a well oiled joint will allow maximum power generation. Good memories of pre-lecture swim sets back in the day hey MK.

15.01.2022 2hrs high intensity sets @ centennial park. Included a few short climbs near the cafe. 68.9km. Tough on the old legs after yesterday's conditioning. Did the set on an empty stomach with no snacks hoping to ramp up the fat burning capabilities!

14.01.2022 And that, my friends, is that! Final session today done. Easy 100k through the pins. It was really a session to distract us from Anzac beers and two up... Wouldn't mind an Anzac breakfast beer... ... Lest we forget.

13.01.2022 Always a pleasure...

11.01.2022 The newest member of our team! John is degree qualified in Remedial Massage Therapy, Acupuncture & Chinese Medicine, and has over 10 years experience. Appointments available:... - Remedial massage - Acupuncture - Combined Remedial massage & acupuncture. John can use cream, oil or towel for your massage!

11.01.2022 7 bridges run in the rain. Wouldn't mind never training for an Ironman ever again. Ever. Good to get a lengthy run with in without music too.. Whilst typically a first world problem, it was a good battle. 4 weeks left of heavy training... Hmmmmmmmm

11.01.2022 Is chiropractic manipulation better than anti-inflammatory drugs?

10.01.2022 Despite multiple rain dances and with no rain forthcoming we were forced into another high intensity bike set today. 2h05min @ 34km/h. Tilted the seat slightly down before the ride for increased comfort. Worked a treat.

10.01.2022 Big hit out on the bike today, albeit misjudged... 5.5hrs / 137km. Balmain, Bobbin Head, Brooklyn, Mt White return. No bonking today, nailed our snacks and hydration. Chris even ate a sausage roll at Pie in the Sky! (Actually... No he didn't, it was me.. Damn hot little pastry treats )

10.01.2022 What do to when you don't want to run... Hmmmmm...

09.01.2022 Hopefully that's the last of the long runs! Tried to be as race specific as possible... Full nutrition and multiple laps of the same course.

08.01.2022 Running and balance training Long run today with heavy legs from yesterday: 1h45min from Balmain over harbour bridge to Lavender Bay and back. Don't neglect the role of balance training as a runner. It will enhance hip, knee & ankle stability thus reducing injury. Try these exercises on each leg:... 1. Single leg balancing eyes open then closed. 2. Single leg balancing on an unstable surface eyes open then closed. 3. Stop hops- stand on one leg and hop forward. Try to land without bouncing around. Repeat 6-10 times See more

07.01.2022 Higher cadence equals better blood flow The legs act as a more effective blood pumping system when the cadence is higher if you hit a faster cadence the heart output increases. This makes for better muscle blood flow, and in-line with reduced muscle strain and reduced neural fatigue, it makes for better endurance. At 200 Watts (around 32kph) if you spin at about 100rpm your strain works out at just two Watts per rev, whereas at 60rpm your strain is over three Watts per rev.... Today was 2hrs flat out with high cadence. Averaged 34.8km/h for the 2hrs, spinning hard!

06.01.2022 More to ENDURANCE than the Tour de France! A recent study that patients with chronic low back pain showed higher pain catastrophising scores then healthy subjects. And it was these patients that had lower endurance of their back muscles. Healthy subjects were more fatigue-resistant and showed different muscle activation patterns.... So train with dynamic movement for longer, this targets the endurance capacity of your muscles. For example one 2min plank is better than 3 x 30sec planks. Increase your time to exhaustion in everything you do!

06.01.2022 Sydney at her best!

05.01.2022 Big sesh with the lads. 6hrs in the saddle taking in a double 3 gorges (Bobbin, Galston, Berowra). Always good to get some sports specific endurance into muscles you don't always condition- low back, neck and shoulders. Some of us did a secret squirrel 14k run off the bike too... Hmmm well done Chris! Good session.

04.01.2022 Conditioning session. Targeting exercises for hip stabilisers and power generating muscles. Single leg the key to improve symmetry of leg and hip strength. Exercises today include:... 1. Single leg exercise ball eccentric hamstring curls 2. Single leg leg press 3. Single leg calf raise 4. Crab walks 5. Side planks 6. Modified McGill sit up

04.01.2022 If the only thing we get out of cycling is to see what beauty Sydney offers, it will be worth it! Looking out across Middle Harbour from Parriwi Rd near The Spit.

01.01.2022 Big 150k loop on the bike!
