21.01.2022 N.E.A.T Non-Exercise Activity Thermogenesis: the energy you use with movement and daily activities! If youre looking to make some changes to your body composition, energy levels or even manage your glucose levels... we should focus on building our general daily activities before trying to boost exercise! This will lead to an increase in your daily metabolic rate without even breaking a sweat! Heres some key points: - AWARENESS: take note of how much time you actually spen...d moving. Just because you are busy doesnt mean you are physically active. Activity trackers are a great tool. - OCCUPATION: this is a huge influence. Try reducing sedentary time, take frequent breaks or choose active transport - LEISURE TIME: attend to those active jobs around the house after work, or play with the kids, instead of catching up on The Bachelor - BEHAVIOURAL COST: its hard to make it habit if it takes more effort than what youre already doing. Make it easy and make it enjoyable! . #exphys #exercisephysiology #exerciseismedicine #exercisescience #science #health #thermogenesis #activity #fun #healthy #metabolism #change #movement #movementmedicine #medicine #healthcare #rehab #rehabilitation #diabetes #chronicillness #energy @ Live Well Rehab Pty Lt See more

20.01.2022 PARKINSONS DISEASE . PD is a condition that relates to a reduced dopamine production. This predominantly affects movement control, which could present through tremors, bradykinesia (slow movements), altered gait pattern or loss of balance and coordination. But it can also disrupt memory, depression, sleep and more. While there is no cure and progression of the disease is different for each person, EXERCISE has some incredible benefits!

19.01.2022 ECCENTRIC TRAINING FOR THE ROTATOR CUFF . Eccentric exercises are classified as contractions while the muscle lengthens e.g lowering or decelerating. If youre looking to improve range of motion, incorporating this style leads to strength AND length adaptations. This can provide a greater ACTIVE range of motion (as opposed to passively stretching into positions). Here we are training to improve strength through shoulder external rotation. . #training #strength #eccentric #rotatorcuff #tendinopathy #tendon #health #weights #exphys #exercise #exercisephysiology #exercisescience #science #medicine #exerciseismedicine #rehab #rehabilitation #physicaltherapy #physicaltherapist #perform

19.01.2022 Do you really want to identify the problem? Or do you want help identifying a solution? This is important to bring forward because: 1. Exercise Physiologists do not diagnose 2. When it comes to chronic pain, theres always more than one factor that influences our pain tolerance. Humans and bodies are deeply inter-twined and it is rarely black and white. In saying this, our assessments (subjective and objective) is what leads to the problem solving. This builds our fram...ework for each treatment. Not imaging alone, or injury history as two identical injuries could have entirely different approaches and outcomes. . Whether there is a clear explanation or not for a case of chronic pain, the important question to ask is what is the best action plan to handle this? . . . #exphys #exerciseohysiology #exercise #exercisescience #science #health #medical #treatment #chronicpain #pain #rehab #rehabilitation #physiology #physiotherapy #diagnosis #medicine #physicaltherapy #therapy #problemsolving #healthy See more

18.01.2022 DO YOU HAVE TIGHT ITBS? . You mightve been told, or feel like your ITB (iliotibial band) is tight, which is contributing to your knee pain. However, the band is designed to be tight! It relies on TENSION to distribute forces and keep our hips, legs and body strong with mechanical demands, particularly running. Foam rolling and massage techniques may provide relief, but it wont provide any structural deformation time loosen the band. It requires 975kg worth of force to ...create a change of ONE PERCENT! Now, there is a place for foam rolling and massage if it helps provide relief and temporarily reduce sensitivity of that area to assist resume training and other activities. However, this is not necessarily a direct solution to knee pain. Further professional investigation will determine the direction of your individualised rehab. . . . #exphys #exercisephysiology #exerciseismedicine #exercise #rehab #rehabilitation #health #injury #foamrolling #therapy #physicaltherapy See more

18.01.2022 PERSPECTIVE . When we look at what affects our health, most of the input comes from within our body and lifestyle.

16.01.2022 HEALTHY HABITS TIP 3 . A different lifestyle will require different thinking. Were not just talking about new ideas... but more about the thought process, response and understanding. Be WILLING to practice a new perspective about your current position and the new changes. Especially when it comes to self-evaluations. You HAVE the potential and opportunities to do SO MUCH! This comes from a growth perspective, rather than a punishing perspective. . Making a changes shows... that you want to be better! Be proud that you want that for yourself and less concerned with what you have been lacking. . Be open to learning, even if it challenges what you previously believed. Understand that BARRIERS or SETBACKS arent full stops. They will offer alternative routes. Positivity or motivation does just appear.

14.01.2022 YOUR SLEEPING PATTERNS COULD BE RISKY! . Poor sleep quality can lead to many complications, such as obesity and even Type 2 Diabetes! There are a few factors that influence this path. Poor sleep may encourage poor dietary choices as our mood and decision making is affected Those with sleep deprivation can also have elevated cortisol levels (stress hormone) and reduce our insulin response. If this continues over time, it could develop into Type 2 Diabetes!! Sleep is ou...r bodys way to restore balance, repair and put energy into the systems that require rebuilding. Without efficient restoration, our body struggles to find the balance, leading to hormonal imbalances and poor regulation of systems. Prioritise your sleep - and your body will reap the benefits beyond sweet dreams! .

14.01.2022 OVERUSE INJURIES! . There are many types of injuries that fall under this term... the most common being the ones listed here. We often get asked But if I train weights regularly, shouldnt the tissues be strong enough for the load? Not necessarily. Just because we can move heavy weights doesnt mean they will always tolerate those loads. ... The onset of these injuries is often due to an accumulation of factors, which collectively have pushed your tissues past its threshold. This could include (but not limited to) poor recovery, a new repetitive action introduced (even small ones), changes in routine, low sleep quality or simply an increase in training load. And just like an acute injury, rebuilding strength specific to that sensitive tissue is the primary rehabilitation goal. . . #exercisephysiology #exphys #physicaltherapy #rehab #pathophysiology #physiology #sportscience #injury #injuryrecovery #recovery #tenniselbow #golferselbow #overuseinjury #kneepain #pain #painmanagement #strength #strengthtraining #brisbanephysio @ Live Well Rehab See more

13.01.2022 SLEEP & PHYSICAL ACTIVITY: a bi-directional relationship! . Physical activity has the ability to influence your sleep quality. And your sleep quality has the ability to influence your physical activity levels!! There are plenty of investigations and findings in relations to hormones, nervous system activity, metabolism etc. but a noteworthy factor is your own feelings of fatigue and energy levels. If we have a terrible sleep, were less likely to feel rested and energised ...for the day. We perceive our energy levels to be quite low, and were more likely to do very little activity because of this! And theres a loop we get stuck in. Those who have generally low activity levels tend to have greater feelings of fatigue and more likely to experience poorer sleep quality. Which again can refers the loop. HOWEVER- you can use this to your advantage! If you can improve your sleep quality... youre likely to feel more energetic and participate in activity! If changing sleep patterns is challenging... try improving your physical activity to assist with better sleep quality!

12.01.2022 HEALTHY HABITS TIP 2 . I think we can all agree that we are busy people! We have designed our lifestyle and daily routine to suit our work, family and social events. We are a product of our regular activities, so it makes sense to look at what we are already doing often and how we can encourage new habits through them. Some ideas could be: Gradually change a current habit with the intention to eventually swap it out for the new habit... Pair the new habit with a current one to help promote repetition (e.g complete the new action while waiting for the kettle to boil each morning) Start with an action that you can complete in a few seconds/minutes, and repeat it throughout the day Set frequent reminders to bring your attention to the action. E.g every 30mins stand up or drink water. These are only a few strategies and maybe others would be best suited to your lifestyle, as long as you can REPEAT the thought pattern, REPEAT the attention and REPEAT the action and it can be automated. . #health #healthyhabits #change #exphys #exercisephysiology #exerciseismedicine #newyearsresolution #healthylifestyle #healthychoices #repetition #growth #learning #exercise #rehab See more

09.01.2022 HEALTHY HABITS TIP 1 . If youre about to make a plan or youre becoming frustrated with low motivation... now is the best time to LEARN. Take some time to learn about your internal and external environment to give you direction: Internal - What are your values? What are you currently doing? Why have you made these choices? How can you expand your knowledge and preparation? How do you see yourself being successful? External - what opportunities and resources are availab...le? Can you adjust certain aspects to help with the longevity of the habits? Have you got support surrounding you? . The first point of progress doesnt have to be an action, it could be simply your enhanced awareness.

08.01.2022 OVERUSE INJURY TREATMENT . As this type of injury is all about load intolerance... we need to focus on rebuilding that tolerance. 1. Allow for rest! Let the inflammation take its natural course and manage triggers 2. Start with gradually introducing load via isometric contractions, followed by eccentric, and finally concentric. This is important as each type of contraction create different demands on the tendons. ... 3. Possibly the biggest point, BE P A T I E N T. There can be flare ups, it can become sensitive, it might take a trial-and-error approach with load progressions. And thats okay. A few weeks-months managing the load is better than a few months of continuous flares. . . . #physicaltherapy #rehab #pathophysiology #exercisephysiology #physiology #rehabilitation #sports #sportsrehab #therapy #treatment #injury #injuryrecovery #overuseinjury #strength #training #exphys See more

07.01.2022 YOU MAY NOT DESIGN, BUT YOU HAVE CONTROL* *Coming off our last post about pain during exercise, we thought it was important to recognise what you can do if you experience significant pain with your exercises. When it comes to rehab programs (or general exercise programs) designed by your Health Professional, there are certain guidelines prescribed for you to perform. We dont encourage changing what has been prescribed for you BUT you can tweak it in the absence of your tr...ainer/coach IF you NEED to. If you experience SIGNIFICANT pain doing your exercises independently, you dont have to push through the pain to get the prescribed amount. Try adjusting the volume (number performed), recovery period, speed of movement, range of movement and intensity Remember the difference between STIMULATION and AGGRAVATION Pain is variable, some days you can tolerate the program designed, other days you may need to adjust it slightly. THIS IS APPLICABLE TO YOUR NORMAL DAILY ACTIVITIES.

05.01.2022 IT FEELS TIGHT We often hear this in the clinic when a client feels a response with movement. We want you to understand that something may FEEL tight but that doesnt mean it is. Whenever we describe a sensation.. its easier to compare it to something for a clear understanding of how it feels. Another classic example is describing scents. We say this candle smells like Tropical Fruits. But it is not actually Tropical Fruits, it just a candle that smells like it. S...ometimes we say a muscle feels tight because thats the only way we feel we can describe it. But whether it is actually mechanically tight, is a different story. Lets start to think more about the SENSATION we are feeling and how might it be a limitation to the action. E.g if it is hard to perform, tightness might restrict your range more. Whereas weakness might feel like it is more difficult to engage and control. In the same way a described mild pain response may not be pain, but rather a loading stimulus. However, its not this black and white and it depends on how you can understand your body. But this style of thinking can help identify appropriate working rates and responses during activities. #exercise #exercisephysiology #exphys #science #health #sportscience #physicaltherapy #pt #pain #painscience #tight #tightness #muscles #strength #stretch #performance #painmanagement #progress #physio #brisbanephysio See more

01.01.2022 PAIN AND EXERCISE... sometimes they can go hand in hand. You dont have to wait until youre PAIN FREE to exercise. BUT if you can understand what youre feeling when you exercise, you will gain control over your chronic pain and activity tolerance. Your body needs stimulus to promote adaptation and progress. Pain can sometimes be that stimulus. If youre feeling a loading discomfort or muscle fatigue but usually reduces with rest.. its probably okay to work with. R...est when you need to and continue when youre ready. If its sharp, intense or lingers with little relief... you might be overloading those tissues. Instead: REST - allow for recovery REASSESS - was it too much or too fast? Etc READJUST - reduce the load or change other parameters until it is tolerable. Remember, ZERO PAIN IS NOT THE GOAL... the ability to manage pain and its impact on your daily activities and enjoyment levels, is the goal. . #exerciseismedicine #exphys #exercisephysiology #physiology #health #pain #livewellrehab #healthy #exercise #lifestyle #healthtips #chronicpain @ Live Well Rehab See more
