24.01.2022 Band assisted thoracic mobilisation. Great for stiffness in thoracic spine to help with positions like the front squat or overhead movements . . . .... . . . . #osteohealthandperformance #osteo #osteopathy #rehab #rehabilitation #gym #manualtherapy #strengthandconditioning #westmelbourne #brooklyn #yarraville #altonanorth #thoracic #mobility See more

24.01.2022 The shoulder joint has a high degree of movement compared to other joints of the body. Because of this freedom of movement, there can often be instability. Bottoms up kettlebell presses are a good way to work on stability of the shoulder. Unilateral work may help to emphasise any differences from each shoulder which can give a better understanding of any issues that may be occurring. Focus on slow, controlled movements rather than power and strength

22.01.2022 The Romanian deadlift is a great exercise to solidify the hip hinge pattern and to strengthen the muscles of the posterior chain. When the exercise is done unilaterally, it challenges stability and it can show differences from side to side. Conducting the exercise in different directions can further emphasise these areas

21.01.2022 This ones just for fun! I’ve been seeing the koala challenge pop around so thought I’d give it a try. Give it a go and tag us in your attempts! . #koalachallenge #saveaustralia

18.01.2022 Kettlebell halo’s are great for improving shoulder and thoracic range of motion whilst developing stability in the shoulder and the midline

18.01.2022 The brettzel stretch is a great stretch not only because it makes you feel like a pretzel! . It works to improve thoracic mobility while stretching through the hip flexors. Take a few breaths in the position allowing yourself to fall further into the stretch as you exhale

10.01.2022 Working on shoulder rehab techniques with coach @gab_metaltherapy Resistance bands here are used to set the scapula and humerus before adding load.

09.01.2022 There are many benefits to planking, but I don’t know what the benefits are of planking the world record time of 10 hours and 10 minutes. To achieve that is pretty incredible both mentally and physically! I prescribe static planking as a stepping stone towards dynamic planks by introducing upper and lower limb levers or altering instability. Our day to day activities often require midline stability whilst moving through the arms and legs. Here’s my attempt at the world record... with a bit of a distraction from the pain Time: 2:36

07.01.2022 With current events potentially closing up gyms and recreation centres, and as we may have to spend more time at home, it will be difficult for many of us to stay fit and active. There are plenty of body weight exercises we can do at home - squats, lunges, step-ups, pushups, planks, burpees, skipping etc. If you have access to any equipment, that’s even better! Play around with things like reps, sets, rest-time to change the intensity or difficulty. Feel free to get in contact if you need any help with programming or ideas! If you’re feeling well, there’s no reason why we shouldn’t keep active

04.01.2022 Celebrating a great few months providing osteo treatments at the new clinic! Thank you so much to everyone who has given their support so far I’m looking forward to 2020 with more content and some exciting things to come Wishing everyone a safe and Merry Christmas ... From the team at OsteoHealth & Performance (which is just me for now )

04.01.2022 The pallof press is one of my favourite exercises. It’s an exercise where you can really feel the stabilisers of the trunk engage. But if you don’t have access to any equipment like a power band or cable machine, here’s a modification you can do anywhere with a wall! Keep the arms pressing into the wall whilst remaining stable in the midline . . . . .... . . . #osteohealthandperformance #osteo #osteopathy #rehab #rehabilitation #gym #manualtherapy #strengthandconditioning #westmelbourne #brooklyn #yarraville #altonanorth #pallofpress See more

02.01.2022 The couch stretch is a great way to improve hip flexor flexibility. Depending on your tolerance, try these progressions. When in the stretch, tilt your pelvis backwards and squeeze the glutes to intensify the stretch. A dowel stick can help with stability and keeping upright Stretch for 10-20seconds prior to exercise to allow more blood flow through tissues and improve muscle elasticity. This may assist in reducing the risk of injury and improve performance Stretching for longer (1-2min) may negatively impact that muscle to produce force and power for a period of time, so it’s better to do this post exercise or rest days @ OsteoHealth & Performance

01.01.2022 Here’s a way to work on internal and external rotation mobility of the hips. It can give us an indication on certain restrictions and where we can spend more time improving. It can be a good way to warm up before any exercise, just ensure that there isn’t any pain or pinching in the hips.

01.01.2022 I often use pistol squats or single leg squats as a big part of my assessment and rehabilitation for many lower limb or lower back complaints. This assisted version takes away components of flexibility/stability/mobility allowing the movement to be easier . . . .... . . . . #osteohealthandperformance #osteo #osteopathy #rehab #rehabilitation #gym #manualtherapy #strengthandconditioning #westmelbourne #brooklyn #yarraville #altonanorth #pistolsquats #squats See more
