Jamie also played for our national team (The Kookaburras!) until 2012.

So to our ISC Hockey players....player like Jamie this weekend and next! @westsillawarrahockey @falconshockeyassoc @seacliffhc @uow_hockey_club @avondalehockeyclub @illawarrasouthcoasthockey @illawarra_academy_of_sport #hockey #nhl #sports #hockeylife #sport #playoffs #hockeyplayer #hockeyplayers #nhlplayoffs #hockeymemes #hockeyislife #fitness #hockeygame #goalie #hockeystick #hockeyfan #jamiedwyer #jamiedwyerfans #playlikejamie

24.01.2022 The Aus Physiotherapy Association has posted a great video on ankle injury prevention with Netball Australia >> Check it out on the link below or call Phyxit on 4227 6872 for more info https://youtu.be/Q5Awfw7xsVY

24.01.2022 Being fueled for the day ahead is critical, especially after a morning workout when your muscles are depleted and energy is low. A protein shake alone will work well, but adding a mix of natural vitamins in the form of Almond Milk (Vitamin E, calcium), Banana (B6), Mango (Vit C & A) and Baby Spinach (Vit K, iron). Head to the web address below to check out the recipe! https://www.ilovevegan.com/green-protein-power-breakfast-/... @ilovevegan #vegan #healthfood #healthyeating #food #foodblog #nutrition #diatetics #protein #proteinsmoothie #summer #sports #sportsnutrition #physio #physiotherapy #sportsphysio #massage #massagetherapy

24.01.2022 What better way to click into gear than plunging into the winter ocean...definitely not for everyone! But there are benefits for those who do. Other than getting fitter, stronger and tougher, cold water swimming is said to supercharge your metabolism and help your immune system. Cold water immersion develops brown fat, a type of fat we acquired in hunter gatherer days but not so much now. Brown fat keeps you warmer, raising your temperature and burning calories at a muc...h higher rate. Your immune system will be boosted by the activation of a specific antioxidant which helps to regulate all other antioxidants within the body. Greater immunity! Not to mention as you swim in open water you will interact with many more germs and build immunity naturally as you go. The benefits of open water swimming! The colder the better...!!

23.01.2022 A Short Guide to Burning Obliques: - Make sure your back isnt rounding when you assume starting position. Keep your torso long and raise from the waist. - Begin with your feet flat on the ground, as you progress, you can raise your feet to float - but maintain stability. - Unlike the lady in the picture...extend your arms for maximum core work! Like the picture in the bottom right :) - When you twist, move your whole upper body to the side rather than only your arms. Tip: where your eyes go, there your body will follow!

23.01.2022 Alexey Lutsenko of the Astana Pro Team forged clear of the days early break to become the winner of Stage 6 atop Mont Aigoual, after smashing out the category 1 ascent of the Col de la Lusette. The tough finale saw Lutsenko make ground rather than lose it, while the chasing leaders swapped between Powless, Herrada and Van Avermaet.

21.01.2022 Peter Haddock - legendary rugby league halfback and the founder of the sport of Oztag in Australia. He and Chris Parkes introduced Oztag as a non contact version of Rugby League, which is now played by over 100,000 people in organised leagues across the country. Perry first used the game as a training tool for the Under 21s St George Team, with all the movements of Rugby League and easy-to-follow rules that made for an exciting social game! #oztaghistory #oztag #tagleague #...rugbyleague #perryhaddock #stgeorge #stgeorgedragons #physio #physiotherapy #sportsphysio #sportstherapy @nrl_dragons @nsw_oztag

20.01.2022 Heres a rugby drill we (and Rugby Weekly) think would be great in strengthening a players hips, knees and ankles for game time. - SNAKE FOOTWORK RACES Develop your players go-forward skills with evasion in this competitive scenario. Its easy to set up and you can add lots of variations. Even though some of the players will cheat by not exactly stepping to the side of the cones, their swerves and go-forward will help them replicate these skills in a match situation where their muscles remember and expect the movements.

20.01.2022 Come in to see one of our awesome sports massage therapists! Georgia and Dani are here week in, week out, ready to help. Give us a call on 4228 9299 to book your appointment today! #physiotherapy #massage #massagetherapy #sportstherapy #sports

19.01.2022 You could say, that during all the uncertainty and cancelled sport, individual sports like trail running thrived. When the Illawarra escarpment is your backyard, the kilometres clocked up for many, not down! There were many record-breaking climbs of Sublime Point, some non-stop over days and nights. There were influxes of people joining local trail running groups, and trail adventure stores have never seen better days! What better sport to jump into to appreciate the beautif...ul part of the world we live in? Most people have thoroughly done our local coastline, but why not take to the hills this August to escape the wind...? Remember to always make room for dynamic stretches and warm-up jogs to make sure those knees, hips and ankles are ready for the uneven surfaces of the trails. But if you do get injured out there, call us on 4228 9299!

19.01.2022 Just had this statement from our Physiotherapy board and registration body. "Thank you for continuing to provide these vital services where and when you can."

18.01.2022 Meet Bronte and Cate - a home-grown Olympic swimming duo! The Cambells grew up in Malawi, South Africa, and moved over to Australia while still under the age of ten. Both quickly decided to pursue swimming after witnessing the Sydney 2000 Olympic Games. In 2012 Bronte and Cate became the first siblings to qualify for the Olympics in the same event - the 50m freestyle. The sprinters were both part of the gold medal-winning 400m freestyle team in London. ... Currently, both sisters are training with Simon Cusack at Knox Grammar School and Pymble Ladies College, with sights set on the Tokyo Olympics, interviews have said they have not been phased by the set back. Bronte and Cate are also advocates for R U Ok movement as well as other mental awareness campaigns that support the public but also the wellbeing of elite athletes such as themselves. Legends!

18.01.2022 According to Runners World, the Bulgarian Split Squat is the perfect exercise to build the muscles that propel you forwards during running. It also challenges your core and increases stability in smaller muscles that may get overlooked in a basic squat. TECHNIQUE: Start standing facing away from a bench or chair. Place the top of your right toes on the bench or chair with slight bend in right knee. Place hands on hips for balance. Bend left knee to lower right knee to floor. Press through left heel to return to starting position.

17.01.2022 Emma McKeon is one of Australias most decorated athletes in the pool - hot on the heels of Ian Thorpe. After winning six medals at the 2019 World Champs, shes got all of Australias attention heading into Tokyo 2021! Not to mention shes a local here in Wollongong...Go Emma!! Emma McKeon has the reputation of being a multi-event athlete, entering EIGHT races at the recent World Champs. Her Coach Michael Bohl said in the Sydney Morning Herald that legends like Michael Phelps... have been the source of her inspiration along the way, winning record golds in a variety of events. "You learn from people like Michael Phelps in Beijing. He did a very good job. In 2008, his heats were measured, the semis he was stronger and the finals he was awesome," Michael Bohl told the Sydney Morning Herald. Guess we know her game plan for Tokyo! Outside the pool Emma can be found studying a bachelor of Health Studies at Griffith University. @emmamckeon <3 @mckeonswimming @swimmingaustralia

16.01.2022 DID YOU KNOW...the game of AFL existed long before it was given its official title in 1985, it took the form of the Indigenous Football game of Marngrook! Marngrook has very similar characteristics to AFL, stemming from the Aboriginal peoples of south eastern Australia, in the same region as AFL founder Tom Wills. Wills grew up playing marngrook with the local indigenous people, and from this experience introduced AFL which was an adaptation of Rugby that kept the ball off the ground, used punting, and celebrated those who marked the ball. Its good to know about the indigenous heritage which is at the heart of Aussie Football!

15.01.2022 Muscles targeted: Rectus abdominus, transverse abdominis, obliques, triceps, pectorals. Relation to Swimming: Good core strength helps you to keep your hips and body high in the water, minimising resistance and increasing speed. Like every other muscle group, your core will fatigue over time, so strength exercises like this are a must!

13.01.2022 The sprinters jersey is currently worn by Sam Bennett (Bib 43 - IRL) - winning the maillot verde is dependent on the course that day, whether its mainly flats or hills, and where the rider places as they cross the finish line. The first 10-25 collect points that move them towards a jersey! #cycling #tourdefrance #phyxitphysio #physio #physiotherapy #sportsphysio #sport #cyclingfans

12.01.2022 HOW TO: - Come to a seated position on the floor with bent knees. - Lay down with a flat back and ensure your lower back is flat to the mat. We don’t want the hips to be tilting downward. - Bring your ankle to meet just below the knee in a right angle position. You want to keep the foot flexed at all times to protect the knee. - Bring your hands around the leg with the foot on the floor. In this instance, it is the left leg. Your hands want to reach around until they meet yo...ur shins. - Draw the shin towards your chest keeping it in the same plane. You should feel a good stretch here. #physiotherapy #physio #sportsphysio #sports #sportsinjury #sportstreatment #recovery #stretching #stretchforstrength #strength #muscles #glutes #glutestrength #technique

11.01.2022 For all our ISC Hockey players who are constantly in hip flexion and putting pressure on those hips and lower back, this stretch not only targets those areas of overuse but stabilises them too. The rear foot elevated hip flexor stretch can also translate into the bulgarian split squat, where more strength work can be done. @westsillawarrahockey @falconshockeyassoc @seacliffhc @uow_hockey_club @avondalehockeyclub @illawarrasouthcoasthockey @illawarra_academy_of_sport #hockey #nhl #sports #hockeylife #sport #playoffs #hockeyplayer #hockeyplayers #nhlplayoffs #hockeymemes #hockeyislife #fitness #hockeygame #goalie #hockeystick #hockeyfan #stretching #pilates #warmup #stretchtherapy

10.01.2022 Bib No. 33 - FRA. The french climber Cosnefroy hold the title of best climber, and sports the polka dot jersey. He now holds the most points in the first five stages since 2002, coming in at 23pts. Christophe Mengin held the previous record of 29pts. Cosnefroys grip on the polka dot jersey is controversial however after leader Anthony Perez crashed during the stage. #cycling #tourdefrance #phyxitphysio #physio #physiotherapy #sportsphysio #sport #cyclingfans

10.01.2022 Our society seems to complain about lack of sleep, more than they mention having too much. But Covid-19 has relaxed a few routines, and means a lot of us spend less time travelling and more time sleeping in... Did you know oversleeping results in the same detrimental effects that 'under-sleeping' does? Oversleeping raises our risk of diabetes, heart failure, and mental health issues. It's often the sign of a sleeping disorder rather than a life of luxury! If you stick to the ...general 7-8 hour norm, you'll steer clear of this risk. But any more and any less...just make sure it doesn't become a habit! #physio #physiotherapy #funfactfriyay #sleep #sleeping #restandrecovery #sleeptherapy #oversleeping

10.01.2022 DID YOU KNOW: A study in Research Quarterly For Exercise And Sport found that skipping for 10 minutes a day delivered the same cardiovascular benefits over six weeks as jogging daily for 30 minutes?? Its a full body exercise, incorporating your core, ankles, pelvic floor, legs, arms and shoulders - and helps to correct your posture by pulling you out of the hunched position you find yourself in while working from home... Skipping is steadily transitioning from a school yard... activity to a primary focus for cross-trainers, celebrity workout schemes and even boutique workshops! At first, a slightly heavier rope is good to use as the rotation will slow down making jumping easier. This will set you up for success with a lighter speed rope! Then, when youve mastered that, go back to heavier ropes and push your body against the resistance. #physiofriday #physiotherapy #fitness #fitnessgoals #crosstraining #jumprope #skipping #fitnfast #physio #therope #sportstherapy #sports #sportsphysio

06.01.2022 Box jumps are a plyometric exercise used to build muscles in your quads, hamstrings, glutes and calves. The jumps train these muscles to react quickly to explosive movements, such as the starting block launch or each push off the wall. The beauty of the box jump is you can adapt it to your varying performance needs, doing low reps of a higher box to improve your power or doing high reps of a lower box to deal with the lactic acid that comes with a quick-repeat, loaded movemen...t. You can start by choosing a box around the same height as your shins, lowering into a quarter squat, swinging your arms behind you and bringing them forwards quickly as you jump! Make sure you are landing with both feet flat on the box and both arms out in front, in motorbike stance. This will ensure you remain balanced and firm throughout the movement. #swimming #swim #pool #triathlon #swimmer #swimmingpool #fitness #sport #summer #love #beach #swimbikerun #water #training #gym #swimlife #ironman #swimmingpools #triathlontraining #sea #swimmers #swimsuit #sports @ias @wiaqteam @mckeonswimming

06.01.2022 Snapping hip syndrome is felt by 5% of the population, occurring most often in dancers but also within other sports with repetitive movement like running and gymnastics. Snapping hip syndrome (SHS) is a condition that is defined by a snapping or popping sensation in or around the hip when it is moved in a certain direction. It is most commonly felt when walking, getting up from a chair and swinging your leg around. The sensation occurs when a muscle or tendon moves over a bon...y protrusion in your hip. There are various causes of SHS and there a thorough examination is required. Some people do not experience pain or dysfunction with the sensation, whereas others report pain and weakness which interferes with their hobbies. In some cases, snapping hip leads to a painful swelling of the fluid- filled sacs that cushion the hip called bursitis. See more

06.01.2022 Plyometrics exercises are a great way to escape the long, slow movements of typical strength training exercises. Stair climbs are one example exercise that builds power, speed and strength through short, explosive movement. During a stair climb workout you can move between single stairs, every second stair, or jumping single stairs with both feet together. Other exercises to look at would be box jumps or skater bounds! The goal of these exercises is to strengthen muscle cont...raction and therefore increase fast-twitch muscle fibers. These fibers help you body and brain to switch into gear faster, and ultimately increase your performance! #physio #physiotherapy #plyometrics #plyometricstraining #stairclimbs #running #sportsphysio #sportsefficiency #performanceimprovement #phyxitcrew !

A great replacement for electrolytes which help maintain fluid balance and muscle replenishment. #nutrition #sportsnutrition #physio #sportsphysio #physiotherapy #massage #sportsmassage #sportstherapy

03.01.2022 RED-S. Relative Energy Deficiency in Sports. This is the state that many athletes find themselves in as they increase their workload but not their energy intake. The problem can largely be fixed by good nutrition, but the biological problems caused by the inability of the body to replenish itself after a workout often need more serious attention. Issues associated with RED-S include: increased injury risk, decreased endurance performance, decreased muscle strength, decreased... glycogen stores, depression, irritability, decreased concentration and coordination, impaired judgement and decreased training response...! Eat up and eat well athletes!

02.01.2022 Swimming is back! Squads have been up and running for a number of weeks now, and public pools are good to go. If you havent swum for a while, make sure youre not over-training muscles that have deteriorated during isolation or are fatigued after the sudden activity. Correct stroke mechanics during training is important to keep an eye on too, most injuries come from a misuse of repeated movements, and in a sport where repetition lays the foundation there is high potential ...for this to occur. Lastly, but most importantly, strength training is key! Not all swim training is done in the water. Increasing stability during gym sessions including shoulders, quads, hip and core muscles will be the difference between success and an injury. Come in and see us at Phyxit to make sure youre on the right track and fit to swim. Give us a call on 4228 9299 and visit today! @mckeonswimming @westsillawarra @wiaqteam
