25.01.2022 Just by getting enough sleep, athletes have the ability to improve sports performance and reduce recovery time. Do not under estimate the importance of resting your body!

25.01.2022 Lowers your resting heart rate Significantly reduces your risk of heart disease Improves cholesterol and fat levels Reduces arterial inflammation Assists with weight loss... Improves blood pressure Manages diabetes, osteoporosis, osteoarthritis, chronic pain and chronic fatigue Reduces your risk of having a stroke Improves your brain function Improves your sleep quality What if there was a daily pill that you could take that had all of these benefits- you would take it right? Unfortunately there isnt a pill, but the benefits are easy. The correct prescription, and dosage of exercise has all of these benefits- and more! Get in touch if you would like some expert advise on what exercise will be most beneficial for you.

24.01.2022 Sydney Thunder Cricketer, Usman Khawaja getting back into running safely, using the AlterG. Available at a few of our clinics, the AlterG enables a controlled and safe return to running for athletes returning from lower limb injuries. https://www.instagram.com/p/BpwSMo9F3pv/

22.01.2022 Dont forget your movement fundamentals. Sometimes the simple drills are the most effective!

22.01.2022 Best of luck to Colm McCarthy, who is competing at Nationals for figure skating this weekend. Colm has been working hard with Cameron to develop strength and power to improve his athletic performance. Prior to seeing Cameron, Colm had never done any form of plyometric training before, despite the physically demanding jumping and landing requirements of his sport. Colm has now improved his counter-movement jump height from 29cm to 34.8cm- indicating he is stronger and more powerful than ever! Colm is still progressing with his strength and stability, but we know all of his hard work so far will pay off this weekend. Good Luck Colm!

19.01.2022 Plyometrics and Change of Direction training may be better than Isolated Change of Direction in improving performance parameters https://journals.lww.com//Effects_of_Plyometric_and_Direct

19.01.2022 Tune in to Australian Story tonight at 8pm to hear the incredible story of Garry Robinson. Garry has been working with SSEP Exercise Physiologist Joey at the Narellan clinic for a few years now and it is amazing to see how far he has come on this journey, and the determination and perseverance he has showed to get there!

18.01.2022 Long-term athletic development starts with building a strong base. Stronger athletes are significantly less likely to develop injuries - the work an athlete does in the gym is just as important as what they do on the field or track!

14.01.2022 Tissue healing takes time, and it is important to understand this process to ensure a successful return from injury. A rough overview of the time required for tissue healing, sourced from Dr Caleb Burgess.

12.01.2022 One of our clients has just had a total knee replacement (TKR) at Bowral hospital by Dr N Hartnell. But this TKR was a little different and one of the first of its kind in Australia. Designed by Conformis in Boston - USA, the prothesis is mapped after a CT scan and printed to precisely match the patients orginal knee. Max is working hard on his rehab with Josiah at our Narellan clinic and he brought in the prothesis template for us to check out!

12.01.2022 Following on from some of the research we have been posting lately, here is Sydney Sports and Exercise Physiologys guide to a successful ACL rehabilitation.

10.01.2022 Interesting findings on the role of sprint interval training on time trial performance in trained runners... https://journals.lww.com//Six_Sessions_of_Sprint_Interval_

10.01.2022 It is common knowledge that aerobic exercise has a positive impact on mental health, but the benefits of weight training are becoming increasingly more evident. Research suggests that lifting weights can ease the burden of mental health and mood disorders, and in the case of recovery- it can help in preventing a relapse. https://werow.co.uk/weightlifting-and-mental-health/

08.01.2022 A 2018 Position statement detailing the importance of Exercise Physiology in the care and treatment of patients with cancer. The Clinical Oncology Society of Australia has called for exercise to be embedded as part of standard practice in cancer care and to be viewed as an adjunct therapy that helps counteract the adverse effects of cancer and its treatment. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/m/pubmed/29719196/

07.01.2022 The benefits of exercise are not only physical! There are so many benefits to staying active and doing the right type of exercise!

07.01.2022 Rate of force development is a key component in athletic development. In almost every sport, the speed at which an athlete can develop force is crucial to their performance.

06.01.2022 Females are up to 10 times more likely to rupture their anterior cruciate ligaments than men. A 2018 systematic review and meta-analysis of meta-analyses by Webster & Hewett showed an overall 50% reduction in the risk of ACL injuries, and 67% risk reduction of non-contact ACL injuries in females following a structured training program. A comprehensive and well designed strength program is crucial for female athletes to prevent injury, and enhance performance- it is good to see the message is getting out there in the news today! https://apple.news/Ax50pOA-USVGLku1PpS_CdQ

06.01.2022 An amazing study demonstrating the difference in fat and muscle tissue between a 74 year old sedentary man and a 70 year old triathlete.

04.01.2022 So important for endurance athletes to have a structured strength training plan. Efficiency and performance improvements coming your way

04.01.2022 Have you ever been told that you have a bulging disc? A large percentage of the population do, however not everyone will experience pain as a result. Specialised exercise prescription can reduce stress on the disc, improve nutrient delivery, increase muscle strength of surrounding structures and retrain movement patterns. Clinically prescribed exercise is such an important part of managing, and preventing lower back pain.

03.01.2022 Unstable Press Variations Creating an unstable environment can be a great way to challenge athletes and supplement an end-stage rehab program. Recent studies have shown increased muscle activation of scapula and trunk stabilisers including biceps brachii, erector spinae, latissimus dorsi, pectoralis major, rectus abdominus, rhombodis and serratus anterior during an unstable overhead press, compared to a strict barbell press (Williams et al JSCR June 2018). The same principal can be applied to a number of movement patterns - Athletes need to be constantly challenged, there is no one exercise that creates a strong and stable body.
