25.01.2022 Exciting new classes to keep you warm this winter! Thanks to the guys at Australian Combat and Exercise. Watch this space. Chantel AEP

23.01.2022 Being an AEP, one of the most common excuses I hear from people in regards to exercise is "I don't have the time". A little as 30 minutes a day of moderate intensity exercise is enough to have a positive outcome on your health. Some methods used to increase your level of physical activity are: - Get into a routine of exercise. Once this is the case you will find it easy to have the time to exercise. - Break it down to 2x15 minutes or 3x10 minutes. - If you drive to work, par...k around the corner so you need to walk 5-10 minutes before and after work. - If you drive to the shops, park further away from the entrance. - Leave your walking shoes next to the front door so you have a constant reminder to exercise. - On your lunch break get up and walk down the street or around the block. Don't sit for the full time of your break. - If you work in an office, every hour get up and walk around your office and do a few gentle exercises. - Get a fitness buddy to join you to keep each other motivated.

23.01.2022 Exercise and mental health - mini series: 3/3 Recently, The Heart Foundation released an article stating that, "Physical activity is an effective, low-cost and generally safe component of depression management." However physical activity should not replace standard treatment, especially for those with severe depression; instead it should be used in conjunction with standard treatments for maximum benefit.... Below are a few small tips for increasing your activity. 1. Start small. Set goals that are attainable begin with setting out to complete two 15 minute walks each week, then once successful for 2-3 weeks, add a third day. Continuing to add to your goal each week until you are completing 30-60 minutes of moderate-vigorous activity 2-3x per week. Setting small weekly goals instead of goals that dramatically change your lifestyle will make your goals more realistic and reduce the risk of feeling frustrated if you don’t achieve those big unrealistic goals. 2. Everyone has relapses when setting out to do something new, don’t give up and don’t be too hard on yourself. Like anything worth working for, it takes time. The mental health benefits from exercise take time; backed up by several studies showing that the benefits of regular exercise, in regards to a reduction in depression symptoms can take up to 8 weeks or more! Perseverance is key. 3. Types of physical activity. Walking (outdoors if possible), cycling, swimming, dancing, jogging while listening to music, going to a dog park (walking with the added benefit of cuddling some pups), gardening, bush-walking, yoga, cycling and resistance training. 4. Grab a buddy. Having a friend to hold you accountable for your workouts is a great way to stay on track and increases socialisation. Mental health is shown to improve with social interaction, which leads to our next point. 5. Join a local sports team! Enjoy exercise in a social environment, learn a new skill; every time you learn a new skill you are not only retraining your body but you are retraining your brain. 6. Time of day Exercise mid-morning to afternoon, depending on when your fatigue levels are at your lowest. Listen to your body and rest as required. For more information on how exercise can be of an advantage to you and your mental health, contact your local Exercise Physiologist! In honour of Exercise Right week starting tomorrow, take the exercise right quiz to find out how to exercise right for you and your uniqueness. Chantel AEP http://www.exerciseright.com.au/quiz/#/

23.01.2022 "There is no medicine that can treat a range of chronic conditions like exercise can". Exercise has been shown to treat chronic conditions as effectively, if not more effectively than medication when it comes to diseases such as diabetes, osteoarthritis, osteoporosis and heart disease. Speak to your Gp about the benefits or alternatively contact your local Exercise Physiologist, 6585 1977 for more information. I encourage you all to watch the video attached. http://www.abc.net.au/catalyst/stories/3515000.htm

20.01.2022 Did you know Every year 1 in 3 people over the age of 65 will have a fall and once they have had a fall they are more likely to fall again? Falls account for a large percentage of hospital admissions in people over the age of 65 with the most common injuries occurring to hips, wrists, shoulders and heads. Are you in this age group with a fear of falling or do you know someone that is? Consult your local exercise physiologist on 6585 1977 and learn how simple lower limb strengthening and balance exercises can reduce your risk of falling. http://exerciseright.com.au/keeping-simple-falls-preventio/

19.01.2022 Quadratus Lumborum (QL) Connects your pelvis to your spine. Functions: 1. Lateral flexion of the spine (bending sideways). 2. Extension of the spine (bending backwards). ... The two QL's tend to, "pick up the slack," when the other back muscles are weak or inhibited. Activities such as prolonged sitting, e.g desk job, driving (long trips), etc. can cause the other back muscles to slack off from their regular duties and also cause QL to be tight and fatigued. Constant contraction and fatigue of QL can lead to a decrease in blood flow to that area, resulting in lower back pain. Pictured below is a stretch for your QL that can be completed daily for improved QL function and overtime when incorporated with other exercises will lead to decreased lower back pain. *if you have any concerns or severe chronic back conditions adding to your lower back pain then please consult with your Doctor and health professional before embarking on a new exercise program. Our team of Exercise Physiologists can design an exercise program specific to your lower back pain needs in regards to strength and mobility, and can range from upmost beginner to advanced.

19.01.2022 Childhood obesity. It's a growing epidemic. Until approximately two decades ago the word 'obesity' was never used to describe this population group now it is being described using the word, 'morbid' when referring to obesity. This rise in obesity is brought about by an ENERGY IMBALANCE caused by an increase in sedentary behaviour and a reduction in physical activity.... "Adiposity rebound: defined as the lowest BMI prior to the second normal rise in BMI in youth," (Howie, 2017). It has been shown that "the earlier in life that this 'adiposity rebound' occurs the greater the risk of obesity tracking into adulthood." For example those considered 'obese' in Kindergarten/year 1 had an increased probability of being obese in year 8 and an increased likelihood of being considered obese as an adult. Children who are obese who then become obese adults will have an increased number and severity of other co-occurring diseases (or co-morbidities) including hypertension, high cholesterol, type 2 diabetes (or insulin resistance), sleep apnoea, asthma, joint issues or liver disease. The current generation of children is expected to live shorter lives than their parents due to these disease consequences happening earlier in their lives. Physical activity provides Central Nervous System (CNS) stimulation which releases Dopamine and creates a positive feeling, and regular physical activity will result in an ENERGY BALANCE! However did you know that 'screen-time', computers, tablets, television, etc also provide CNS stimulation, releasing dopamine amounts similar to those provided by physical activity? Which of the two do you think is easier and more likely for children to participate in today? Instant gratification from screen-time reduces children's innate desire to be physically active and therefore is ADDING to this ENERGY IMBALANCE that is leading to obesity. How can we fix this? To start, we can monitor and increase children's physical activity levels where necessary. Children should be getting at least 60 minutes of moderate to vigorous activity every day! Instead on average, most children are spending over 500 minutes per day sitting. Please, speak to your local Accredited Exercise Physiologist today to find out how your child can become more active and reduce their risk of childhood obesity. Chantel AEP

16.01.2022 Exercise and mental health - mini series: 1/3 In part one I will be providing you with a lot of information in the set up for parts 2 and 3. -----------------------------------------------------------------------------... There is mounting evidence that suggests exercise is an effective treatment method for people suffering from acute and chronic mental illness, with some studies suggesting that exercise is just as effective, if not more effective than pharmacological intervention in alleviating depressive symptoms, Exercise Right blog (2017). A population study in Finland, published January 2000, showed a consistent association between enhanced psychological well-being and regular physical activity. It ascertained that people who exercised 2-3 times per week presented significantly lower levels of depression, anger, cynical distrust and stress when compared to those individuals who exercised less frequently or not at all. Duke University also conducted a study in 2012, where one group completed an aerobic exercise program for four months while the other took an anti-depressant drug (Zoloft). At the end of the four-month time period the group taking Zoloft had their Hamilton Depression Rating Scale lowered as expected. The group that completed the aerobic exercise program (no pharmacotherapy intervention) generated the same outcome, leading the researchers to conclude that exercise can be an effective treatment alternative for depression. Although most studies conducted have focused on aerobic training, there have also been studies that have shown that resistance training may also be an effective intervention. It is best to choose a variety of different activities, making sure to choose activities that you also enjoy! Activities may include walking, swimming, cycling, hiking, weight lifting and yoga. Why yoga? To find out why people are turning to yoga as an exercise modality to combat not only depression but ANXIETY stayed tuned for part 2 of our exercise and mental health mini series.

14.01.2022 Treadmills can be a little intimidating if you are not familiar with them, I mean the ground... moving under you... that never happens in every day life. Treadmills however can present some benefits when compared to certain outdoor elements with walking/running. For example, on a treadmill you don't have to take into account unforeseen weather conditions such as wind, rain or excessive temperatures. Sure the ground under your feet is literally moving, but there is no unexpect...ed change in terrain, no rocks, gravel or mud to cause you to lose your footing. Most modern treadmills have the ability to add an incline to your workout as well as change the speed; it was found during a "small study in 2014 that treadmill walking on an incline can have added benefits to people living with osteoarthritis in their knees or following knee replacements." I encourage you to get outside and get moving as much as possible, but now if the weather lets you down you have another option! Please if you have the time, read the following article for further information about training with treadmills. Chantel AEP http://www.health.harvard.edu/ex/get-smart-about-treadmills

11.01.2022 As wonderful as it would be to wake up feeling fresh, invigorated, and ready to absolutely own the day ahead this is rarely the case for most of us! Whether y...ou’re sore from yesterday’s workout, haven’t had a great night’s sleep, are feeling a little lazy, or you’re just generally not a morning person; getting out of bed can be chore #1 of the day. As we don’t move as much in our sleep, our muscles can cramp and tense up. Stretching of a morning helps rid our bodies of tension and stress, and increases blood flow to our muscles and brain giving us more energy and preparing us for the day ahead.

11.01.2022 When it comes to exercise it can be hard to motivate yourself to do the recommended 150 minutes of exercise a week as we all live busy lives. But if you break it down, its only 30 minutes of exercise 5 days a week, or a little over 20 minutes a day over 7 days. We can all spare a small amount of time to better our lives, our body will thank us for it.

07.01.2022 Exercise and mental health - mini series: 2/3 Yoga for anxiety treatment. Yoga is often thought of as a calming exercise but can yoga really alter your mood? Would you try yoga as an alternative medicine to treat your anxiety?... Don't dismiss it yet; although further research still needs to be completed in regards to using yoga as a form of anxiety treatment, there are some studies out there already that suggest that yoga is carrying it's own weight in this field. *pun intended. A study conducted by Streeter et al. (2010) demonstrated that a 12-week yoga intervention was associated with, greater improvements in mood and anxiety than a metabolically matched walking exercise. It was shown that yoga postures had a positive correlation between increases in GABA levels and improvements in scores on mood and anxiety scales. What are GABA levels? Gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) is a neurotransmitter that sends chemical messages through the brain and nervous system. It’s role is to inhibit the activity of neurons or nerve transmissions in the brain calming the brain. Reduced activity in GABA systems has been linked to mood and anxiety disorders. Yoga has been shown to increase activity in GABA systems and therefore reduce anxiety symptoms, as stated above. *Fun fact pit stop! Did you know that outdoor exercise is associated with increased energy, and decreased anger, confusion, and depression when compared to exercising indoors? Enjoy your weekend, get outside, try something new. Chantel AEP

07.01.2022 It’s estimated that roughly 30-40% of people will experience knee osteoarthritis as they age with a higher proportion affected being women. A recent World Healt...h Organisation report on the global burden of disease indicates that knee osteoarthritis is likely to become the fourth most important global cause of disability in women and the eighth most important in men. Although there are many treatment options available for treating knee osteoarthritis, early intervention of non-invasive, exercise based treatment can lead to improved quality of life, reduced pain & disability and may even prevent knee osteoarthritis altogether, explains Accredited Exercise Physiologist, Hany Georgy.

05.01.2022 High Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) is proven to be very beneficial in producing positive health benefits.

03.01.2022 Are you worried about your knee pain and developing osteoarthritis? Are you concerned that a knee replacement is your only option and how that may negatively impact your life?

03.01.2022 High Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) and weight loss What is HIIT or HIIE (High Intensity Interval Exercise)? = repeated bouts of exercise, short to moderate in duration, completed at an intensity that is greater than the anaerobic threshold, Laursen & Jenkins (2002). These exercise bouts are separated by periods of passive rest or active recovery.... The purpose of HIIT is to perform more exercise at a greater intensity than that that can be achieved utilising a continuous Steady State Exercise (SSE) protocol in less time! Gibala et al (2006) deduced that HIIT/HIIE is considered a TIME-EFFICIENT training strategy to induce RAPID ADAPTATIONS in skeletal muscle and exercise performance that are comparable to traditional continuous endurance training. Regular HIIT/HIIE has demonstrated its’ ability to significantly increase aerobic and anaerobic fitness. Studies have shown that HIIT/HIIE has produced improvements in blood glucose control (significantly lowers insulin resistance), cardiovascular fitness and fat oxidation (required to supply important energy to our bodies). In 2008, a study by Trapp, Chisholm, Freund & Boutcher randomly placed 45 women aged 20 years with a BMI of 23.5kg/m2 to either a HIIE group, a SSE group or a control group, and it was found that, - In the HIIE group, women decreased fasting insulin by 31% compared to 8% by SSE. - The HIIE group resulted in a significant loss of fat (2.5 0.83kg). - Both HIIE and SSE increased aerobic fitness, SSE 19% increase and HIIE 26% This study proved that with HIIE these women lost roughly 3x more fat doing half the exercise duration.
