22.01.2022 #Repost @thebodybuildingphysio congratulations @brentonb3 !! 2 years ago @brentonb3 came to me for treatment on a torn hamstring. After working together for a few weeks, Brentons injury improved enough for us to start a strength program with the goal of eventually competing. Today Brenton competed @warriorperform in his first powerlifting competition and we achieved an awesome result with 7/9 lifts and a huge 170kg deadlift at 67 years young! Brenton is a perfect example of someone who worked harder than most, travelling from Newcastle to Sydney every week to see me. We are all proud of you and thankful to have you apart of our @paddoperformance family. #paddoperformance #powerlifting #physiotherapy

21.01.2022 #Repost @sydneysportstherapy. Excited to have Jessica Goodwin here @paddoperformance every Tuesday! Jess specialises in sports therapy and remedial exercise. If you suffer from movement dysfunction or muscular pain and restriction please call us on 9160 6104 or email us at [email protected]. Private health insurance claims on site. EXCITING NEWS! Its not always easy to step out of your comfort zone but sometimes in life great opportunities present themselves tha...t are too good to miss. For the last 3 years I have been purely focused on developing SST in Oatley West. But with my family based in Bondi it has been in my mind to start reaching out in the east. On Tuesdays Ill now be working with a bunch of awesome Physios and Strength coachs in Paddington @paddoperformance. The centre is very similar to SST with high quality equipment and small group classes. Ill be offering manual therapy and 1 to 1 strength training. For all my Oatley family I am also increasing my hours to reduce the waitlist. This certainly isnt an end to Oatley but an opportunity to see what I can achieve if I really put my mind to it. Bookings for Paddington can be done via the nookal website just select the Paddington practice, in clinic or by phone ( Oatley 9586 4696) (Paddington 9160 6140) Thank you all for being a part of this awesome journey. #sydneysportstherapy #paddoperformance #sportstherapist #femalestrength #oatleywest #remedialmassage See more

21.01.2022 Tips to improve your high bar squat. 1. Before you walk into the gym and start loading up a barbell, it may be in your spines best interest to perform a few rounds of bodyweight squats and get comfortable through your squats full range of motion. 2. Bar position! Avoid Resting the barbell on your C7 spinous process (the most prominent bone on your cervical spine) as this can cause long term discomfort and does not provide any functional benefit. Instead, utilise the muscl...es of your upper back (traps) to provide a solid foundation to rest the weight on. 3. Hand position on the barbell varies based on shoulder and thoracic mobility. It is encouraged to go as close as your mobility allows to engage your upper back muscles more effectively. Along with this, it is important to maintain an upright position by keeping your chest up (engaging your thoracic extensor muscles) and shoulders down and back (engaging your scapular retractor and depressor muscles). 4. High bar squatting places a large amount of focus on your quadriceps due to the high amount of flexion at the knee joint. Although the focus is primarily on the quadriceps, we still cannot forget about the hip! The gluteal muscles work to extend, abduct and laterally rotate the hip joint. A nice controlled descent initiating at the hip by spreading the floor and pushing the knees out will allow for tension to be generated during the eccentric phase. 5. Record your squat from the side and make sure that barbell tracks over the mid foot! . . . #physiotherapy #gym #training #paddoperformance #fitness #exercise #powerlifting #bodybuilding #squats

20.01.2022 The deadlift is a great tool for both strengthening the posterior musculature and teaching clients to practice safe bending patterns. Unlike a squat or a bench press, which begin with an eccentric lowering phase, the deadlift is initiated by a powerful concentric movement off the floor. This places added emphasis on the initial set up of a deadlift and your ability generate tension prior to lifting. If we do not place our body in the best possible position... on the barbell and activate the correct muscles, the demands on the lumbar structures may become too great overtime. The consequences from these higher demands may not surface immediately, in fact, the body may adapt around your preferred mechanics and develop imbalances with poor recruitment patterns. In most cases, poor execution of bending patterns can go unnoticed for years until a single movement can overload the structures of the vertebral column beyond their capacity causing damage. This is often the phase where clients seek help, in many cases these injuries could have been prevented if the individual addressed the underlying weakness and poor movement pattern rather than AVOID deadlifting. I often ask my clients who have been told to avoid deadlifts, how do you pick up an item off of the floor? This is the part where I witness some awkward and uncomfortable positions, and once I introduce these patients to hip hinging (deadlifting) they magically feel less stress on their lower back! Its a miracle! Master the basics and dont fear movement, seek advice from therapists who spends less time putting dry needles in your back and more time teaching you how to use and strength in your body! See more

09.01.2022 Happiness can be found, even in the darkest of times, if one only remembers to.... Love yourself, respect yourself and appreciate the air we breathe, the food o...n your plate and the bed you sleep on. This life is hard. We all hurt. I thought 2020 was out to get me, I started a business, was threatened with legal action from a previous employer, lost my mum in her sleep at 55 with no warning or a goodbye, we went into lockdown 4 weeks later and I haven’t been able to see my family over seas or even get my mums ashes to see her free. And then I realised if we could throw our problems into a pile, we’d probably all grab ours back again... we are all in this together. Life is hard. We go through sh!t. But if you are reading this you have survived 100% of your worst days. Some people have messaged me sharing their trials and tribulations this year. I’ve heard horrific and heart breaking things. 2020 has been tough. But we are tougher. Humans are funny. In hard times we pull together. There’s camaraderie and compassion among strangers, there’s understanding and empathy from people you don’t know or would never expect. One things for sure, a problem shared is a problem halved

09.01.2022 Deadlifts today. Nothing too crazy but still hard enough. 137.5kg 4 sets 4 reps. @thebodybuildingphysio ... At the moment I am dieting and just starting to feel the pinch of lower cals and higher step goal so just working on maintaining strength! My current program is more of a bodybuilding type split which I’m really enjoying! But still keeping my dead’s in heavy because I love them! I haven’t done a real proper shred in a long time so I’m excited to see my results! So far my diet hasn’t been too hard because I spent so long, majority of the year at higher calories and building to set me up in a good place for this diet

08.01.2022 128 days ago I tore my pec. 119 days ago I had surgery. 0 days I bench pressed a very conservative 60kgs. Never say die. I cant wait to see what I bench on the... day of my first powerlifting meet. Eternal Glory. @thebodybuildingphysio @cameronoreb @paddoperformance @magicnutrition See more

02.01.2022 Follow our JM TEAM on their journey back to the competition stage! . Posted @withregram @orientalcharlie As part of my training, I’ve been taking progress ...photos for my check in folder (something I’ve never done). This is my 12 week transformation, all since the gyms reopened in a COVID safe way in Sydney. Not exactly before and after, as there are many befores and many afters in training. This ‘before’ was a reasonably fit ‘before’ which is why I am amazed at the changes that could happen with 12 weeks of @jm_fitness_team tailored program of weightlifting and 10,000+ steps a day, and proper nutrition (not my usual random but somewhat healthy exercise and eating). And now with the help of @jes_murphy and JM coaching, I am going to challenge myself and enter the #msfitness category at the #icnnsw comp look forward to flexing with these strong women #fitnesscompetitor See more
