24.01.2022 PELVIC FLOOR Our pelvic floor is a ‘hammock’ like group of muscles that support your organs down below- bladder, uterus and bowel. They create a muscular sling that runs from your tailbone (coccyx) to your pubic bone and from sit bone to sit bone (ishium)... There are many causes of a weak PF, but for the purpose of my little chat I am going to predominantly speak about a ladies. So childbirth being one of the main factors here to create a weak Pelvic Floor. This can cause a number of problems down the line, the most common being difficulty controlling the bladder. HOW TO FIND/ EXERCISE YOUR PELVIC FLOOR Lying on your back or find a comfortable seated position (No giggling ) Visualise, squeeze and ‘feel’ having to stop yourself going to the toilet, doing a wee, at the same time stopping flatus (wind) And drawing inward and upward towards the centre of your pelvis A good/fun visual is to imagine picking up a jellybean (from inside there) and holding it up You want to ensure that you aren’t engaging any abdominal, glute or leg muscles, this is purely an internal exercise Notice which muscles are engaging and maintain a natural breath Hold this for 10 seconds at a time for 10 rounds. Make sure in between each squeeze you let the muscles relax! @ Rushcutters Bay

22.01.2022 Did you know that massage can not only help you relax, destress and unwinds BUT it can also benefit your immune system?

21.01.2022 Pregnancy Exercise & Health So over the next little while I’m going to be sharing with you information & some workouts that are going to help you if you are pregnant, planning on pregnancy or know someone who is! Pilates is perfectly safe throughout your entire pregnancy.(Provided your doctor gives you the all clear to exercise) It’s low impact, boosts flexibility and balance. Strengthens your pelvic floor and core muscles which in turn will support your lower back thr...oughout the pregnancy and help you in your healing process after bubs born. First Trimester During the first 12 weeks your body is going through significant changes, so you want to ensure you aren’t over exerting yourself, not overheating the body or elevating the heart rate to much and keeping the intensity light. Focussing on abdominal and pelvic floor activation during this trimester will help the body build up strength and awareness for further down the track in pregnancy and post pregnancy healing. Second Trimester Hopefully the fatigue and nausea you may have experienced has started to fade! However your bump may be starting to grow and expand and throw your centre of gravity off. So during this trimester you might want to make some adjustments & modifications to your exercises to support the body. Third Trimester So your tummy seems to be growing bigger everyday! Your body may feel out of balance and becoming slower and maybe more lethargic than the second trimester. So taking it a little slower and listening to your body is key here. Lying flat on your back is no longer appropriate but there are still a bag full exercises you can perform that will keep you strong, feeling good and prepare your body for the next step- birth! Ps. Not my belly Image @canva

19.01.2022 It definitely just got colder Staying motivated in the fresh winter mornings and evenings can be HARD! Be prepared, get a step ahead of those ‘mmm I think I’ll stay in bed’ thoughts Plan your workouts for the week. Lay out your workout gear each night if your going to have to get up early.... Change your workouts up! Warm up correctly & Stretch your muscles indoors to avoid your body cooling down to quickly. Keep hydrated, when the air is cooler it’s not as tempting to guzzle down the h20 but we still need sufficient water to maintain energy and keep our bodies carrying nutrients around. Focus on why you workout & how delightful it makes you feel and if anything just how toasty warm youu feel when your working out See more

15.01.2022 With a list of emotions that would take up too many lines I have a little news to share... NXT Studio is closing... The decision didn’t come easy, but life’s priorities are ever changing and for me and my family these priorities are where my energies need to go. ... As of the 22nd February doors are closing Until then classes will be a little different on the timetable so make sure you keep up to date on the studio bookings app I absolutely love what I do and feel so god damn lucky to have met so many amazing people along the way. Thank you thank you from the bottom of my heart to everyone and I mean everyone who has ridden this crazy little journey with me along the way, mistakes were made, tears where shed and hell of a lot of laughs and epic booty burn was also had. STAY TUNED: A new little project is in the works & I won’t be stopping my love for Pilates & Barre. I’ll be going Mobile Once I have a little break I’ll be starting up some travelling pop up classes, outdoor classes (at Shelly beach) & will continue my 1:1 work from a home studio and I have taken up working back at my beloved Physio in Maroochydore I have also gone back to Study Remedial Massage so in no time I’ll be able to train you & heal you So this page is going to have a little flip and will follow not only my classes, study and all that goes with life surrounding all of this VIA Nxtlife Once again thank you and so much love to you all

14.01.2022 Working out in the winter can be just plain bloody hard... Exercising during the cold months can help ward of the winter blues, boost your energy, prevent that extra winter ‘insulation’ Here are a few little tips I like to follow in winter: ... Dressing in clothes that are made for exercise dryness not just warmth- wet fabric from sweat next to your skin will draw out any heat and zap your body of the warmth you created - so avoid cotton and opt for synthetic fabrics that soak up sweat. Wearing these items under your warmer clothes will help keep you toasty before your body heats up Warm up properly- exercising in the colder temperatures puts you at more risk of strains and sprains, muscles in when they are cold are like cold elastic bands- so ensure you give yourself a good dynamic warm up, low intensity body weight movements to get that blood moving and heat generating Keep the static stretching for when you are done Stay Hydrated- might be an obvious one but it can be a lot harder to drink water when it’s cold but it’s still just as important to consume that h20 when exercising you still lose fluids through sweat and breathing etc. Try opting for just room temperature water makes it a lot easier to drink Ps. Not actually exercising here just basking in the delish Double Island Point Glory

10.01.2022 FUN FACT Has anyone ever told you that you have one leg longer than the other?? And that it is the cause of your leg, back or neck pain?? The odds of your leg length difference being notable enough to cause you pain are fairly small.. ... Most of us have a dominant side of our body, we use that side in different ways, favouring or leaning into it in certain physical movements. MOST LIKELY your leg discrepancy is because you’re ‘hiking’ one hip up higher than the other. The muscles in your hips, leg, lower back and abdominal area have become tight or weak, and these tight muscles could be laterally tilting your pelvis (Tucking under or forward) and the weak not keeping it in place. There can be many things that cause these muscles to become tight and either under active or over used. After a period of time of using certain postural stances and body movements (good or bad) our nervous system will notice these movements and will eventually make them automatic creating ‘muscle memory’ EXAMPLES OF SOME POSTURES/MOVEMENTS: - Carrying a bag on one shoulder - Carrying a baby on one hip - Sitting at a desk facing one way and using a dominant side to answer phones/use mouse - Kicking a ball with the same leg over and over Eventually our bodies adapt to these movements and it will start to keep these muscles regulated in there levels of tension and it will keep those muscles tight all the time and your body won’t be aware of the increase of tension. Until an injury/ pain occurs.

10.01.2022 DID YOU KNOW: It’s good for you to be Upside down Boosts Energy When the head is below the heart, blood rushes to the brain, stimulating and invigorating the entire body. This rush of blood gives the body an energy boost and also increases alertness and focus.... Improves Circulation When you go upside down, the direction of our blood flow is reversed, thus increasing circulation to all parts of the bodymost importantly to the brain. As blood rushes to your head, it provides the brain with more oxygen, thus increasing cognitive function. Helps Detoxify the Body The lymphatic system is a chain of tissues and organs in the immune system that rid the body of waste and toxins. It’s in charge of waste removal, fluid balance, and immune system balance. Inversions stimulate the lymphatic system and encourage the flow of lymph into the lungs where toxins and mucus are found. Stimulates Endocrine and Nervous Systems Many inversions stimulate the pituitary gland, the body’s major endocrine gland, which controls growth and development. Inversions also stimulate the cerebrospinal fluid, known as the juice of the central nervous system. (Thanks @yogatoday )

04.01.2022 How often do you take a bath? Do you use bath salts/ magnesium? Our skin is the largest organ in our body and has an amazing ability to absorb, filter toxins, and deliver nutrients to the body. Some of the benefits of having a bath with magnesium salts in it are:... * Stress relief * Muscle aches * Improving circulation * Headache relief * Speeding up wound healing * During illness, especially respiratory illness * For children to help mineral absorption and improve sleep * For acne, eczema or other skin problems * For joint pain relief * Improving skin hydration Add a cup or two into your next bath (If you struggle for time for a bath make a bottle of magnesium spray: 1 part magnesium flakes to 1 part distilled water into a spray bottle ) Delightful Image via @soothe

04.01.2022 Sunshine where did you go Winter in QLD isn’t to bad

03.01.2022 Did you know that having tight hamstrings can give you bad posture They consist of 3 muscles, semimembranosus, semitendinosus, and bicep femoris. (Big fancy names) They are responsible for flexing our knees and extending our hips If your hamstrings are tight they can pull on your glutes and in turn rotate your pelvis posteriorly (tucking of the bottom ‘under’) and this can lead to back and leg pain. ... There are many factors that can cause tight hamstrings, a common cause (especially in today’s society) is too much sitting... Sitting at an office desk, commuting in a car, watching endless episodes of Netflix? When your knees are bent your hamstrings are in a flexed position and therefore shortened. Make it a goal to spend 10-20 minutes a day stretching your body and if you suffer from tight hamstrings spend a little extra time on that area especially Spend a minimum of 20 seconds in each stretch for optimum benefit
