25.01.2022 "The Tough Guy Sessions" kicked off yesterday. There should be some tired bodies today! Thursday morning classes will be starting soon because of high demand. Stay tuned.

24.01.2022 Kettlebells: Twice the results in half the time! Our classes our currently on Mondays and Wednesday. Call or email for more information.

23.01.2022 Do you eat enough protein? Here's one way to check... Press down on the end of your fingernail. If it's soft, you probably need more. If it's quite tough, you're probably OK. Contact us if you want to know more.

21.01.2022 Do you think the "diet" versions of foods and soft drinks are better for you? Do you use Equal or a similar sweetener in your tea or coffee? Read this article and you may change your mind.

20.01.2022 Just a reminder that "The Tough Guy Sessions" are starting Sept 21. Only a couple of spots are left.

20.01.2022 Aerobic exercise and weight loss - if you are someone that runs or walks for fitness and to lose a bit of weight, a way of getting better results is by mixing it up a bit. If you are going for 30min, do (for example) 5min fast, then 5min slower repeated for the 30min, or do some hills. Don't just go at the same pace the whole time. The technical term is Interval Training. Give it a go and see the difference.

19.01.2022 This is one of the more impressive displays of physical strength and control that I have ever seen. Absolutely incredible...

16.01.2022 Don't be scared of eating fat (provided it's the right type of fat) - it's sugar that we should be worried about. Here is a lecture from the University of California Medical School called "Sugar:The bitter truth" which shows why it is sugar (and more specifically fructose) that is responsible for obesity, yet we are eating more and more of it. It's long, but at least watch the first few minutes. It will change the way you look at what you eat and what you let your kids eat.

15.01.2022 The Leg Press... why do people do it? All they do is give you bad knees, a bad back, dumb down your nervous system, inhibit your "core" and just generally teach your body to work badly. The leg press was designed to replicate a squat - so just do squats! As a rule, no machine is as good as a free weight anyway. Look at a squat compared to what a leg press would look like flipped over so your feet were on the ground. They look nothing alike.

14.01.2022 With summer fast approaching you may be thinking of getting back in shape and losing a few of those winter kilos. Try kettlebells. They'll get the job done! Here's a client doing some "snatches" with kettlebells. www.exercise-physiologist.com.au

13.01.2022 I've mentioned how important squats are in the past, and want to mention it again... A mentor once said to me "you can't live if you can't squat".That's because the squat is a movement pattern that is inherently present in us from a young age. Don't believe me? Check this out...

13.01.2022 Well done to kettlebell regulars Adam and Yael who made the step up to 20kg and 12kg respectively in their sessions this week.

11.01.2022 Sydney Exercise Physiology has finally joined Facebook. Take a peek at upcoming events..

11.01.2022 The "Tough Guy Sessions" are starting on Thursday mornings from April 7. If you are up for the challenge, email or call to book in. We're offering a special rate for the start of this class - bring a friend and you both get your first 2 sessions for the price of 1.

10.01.2022 As you are reading this back care tip, check out how you are sitting at your computer. Slouching can increase disc pressure in your back by up to 85% and can lead to lower back, neck and shoulder pain. So sit up straight - try to keep the back of your head, upper back and top of your bum in line. If you have a head rest (like in your car), use it!

09.01.2022 With winter seemingly starting this morning (how cold was it!?), a lot of people will start resorting to some comfort food for dinner. Try and start making chicken soup. It's loaded with enzymes, helps with digestion and has heaps of calcium and other minerals.

09.01.2022 Are you going to the gym today? If so, make sure you do some squats! They're the king of all exercises. The easiest way to add weight to a squat is by doing a "Jefferson Squat". Hold a dumbbell between your legs, stick your bum out to drop down into the squat. Keep your chest up. If you do it properly, the weight will finish between your feet. Do them slowly and make sure you keep good form.

08.01.2022 I saw a new client today and thought I'd share the lesson with you... she presented with neck pain and wanted help to fix her neck. After a short assessment it became apparent that her neck pain was coming from the high heels she wears all day for work. Solution: Get rid of the high heels. If you cant do that because of work at a minimum stretch your calves daily. To find out more come in for a consultation.

08.01.2022 Drinking the right amount of water every day is the single most beneficial thing you can do for your health. But how much should you drink? The common thought on 8 glasses a day is not necessarily accurate. Some need more, some need less. Here's how to work out how much water you need to drink each day...

08.01.2022 Looking forward to sharing lots of tips on exercise and nutrition with you, hope you "like" this page to get more information

07.01.2022 Do you do any rotation exercises at the gym? Rotation is probably the most important movement the body makes as the obliques are the spine's engine. Here are a couple of examples of rotation exercises. If you need help with your gym program, contact us.

06.01.2022 Got a bad shoulder? It's likely that there is also an issue with your upper back that's contributing to it. If this is you, call us to get an assessment and a corrective exercise program. Get rid of your pain for good, not just for now.

05.01.2022 Ah, the "plank"... an exercise regularly performed but very, very rarely done properly. If done correctly, the plank will condition the abdominal wall very well. If done badly, it can place a shearing force on your discs in your back, create poor posture through poor abdominal muscle function and various injuries. If you can't hold a plank as in the position in the picture, don't do it at all - your bum, shoulder blades and back of your head in line, and a small arch in your back.

03.01.2022 Here's our latest video training tip from the clinic...

03.01.2022 Don't be hesitant to try something different with your training. Watch "Tough Guy Ryan" do a 20rep set with a Cyclone Ball. Different, challenging and fun.

02.01.2022 Happy New Year! Just as you start getting your new years resolutions underway in relation to losing weight and getting fit remember this: losing weight/getting fit and gaining a back or shoulder injury on the way is not going to get you very far. Make sure you consult with an expert before getting started. For more information feel free to contact our website www.sydneyexphys.com.au.
