1️⃣ Pain doesn’t always equal damage
2️⃣ Movement is rarely the problem
3️⃣ Rest alone won’t fix most injuries
4️⃣ Strength matters, but so does capacity and control
5️⃣ Perfect posture doesn’t exist
6️⃣ Flare ups are normal and part of the process
7️⃣ Consistency beats intensity every time
8️⃣ The body is incredibly adaptable
9️⃣ Symptoms don’t always mean harm
🔟 Understanding your body is part of treatment too

Our goal has never been to just “fix pain.”
It’s to help people feel 𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐨𝐧𝐠, 𝐜𝐚𝐩𝐚𝐛𝐥𝐞, 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐟𝐢𝐝𝐞𝐧𝐭, and 𝐚𝐛𝐥𝐞 to get back to doing the things they love.

What’s been your biggest lesson in your recovery journey? 📝

Holly is a long time friend and client and we have supported her through several years of team training for the CrossFit Games, but this year she’s taking a different route in the individual category 🙌🏼 we’re so exited to see her perform this weekend!

We’ve added a new class time to our schedule for our Strong over 50s class.

11:15 is the perfect time to break up your day with a bit of movement. Helping you gain strength and confidence back in your body!

Dry brushing is a simple way to help stimulate the lymphatic system using light sweeping motions across the skin. Think of it as a little boost for circulation, recovery, and helping your body move fluid more efficiently.

People often use it to help with:
〰️ Puffiness and fluid retention
〰️ Circulation
〰️ Relaxation and recovery
〰️ Skin exfoliation
〰️ That “lighter” feeling afterwards

And, every lymphatic drainage massage comes with a free dry brush to take home 🎁

Plus… it honestly just feels nice as part of a self-care routine 🤝🏼

No cap.
We let everyone have a turn at the content this week. No notes. Both of them are right. 🤷🏼‍♀️

We’d love to help you move and feel better.

Bestie just book it. Future you is literally begging 😂

A huge congratulations to Mia on completing a half marathon today 👏🏼

We talk a lot about building capacity, and this is exactly what we mean.

Training isn’t just about aesthetics or personal bests.
It’s about creating 𝘰𝘱𝘱𝘰𝘳𝘵𝘶𝘯𝘪𝘵𝘪𝘦𝘴, for life.

Opportunities to travel.
To run.
To hike.
To play sport.
To keep up with your kids.
To do your daily activities.
To say yes to hard things.
𝐓𝐨 𝐭𝐫𝐮𝐬𝐭 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐛𝐨𝐝𝐲 𝐚𝐠𝐚𝐢𝐧.

A good rehab and strength training plan should carry over into real life.

Because the goal was never just to reduce pain…it’s actually to help you do more of the things that make you feel alive.

We are proud of you Mia 🙌🏼 leading from the front!

𝐀𝐭𝐡𝐥𝐞𝐭𝐞 𝐂𝐚𝐫𝐝: Michelle Attard 🏎️
We started working with Michelle during the tail end of COVID. We have loved seeing her get back in the kart for a few races this year! We wish her all the best as she heads up for the Lismore Kart Club Christmas meet. Michelle started racing here when she was 12!

𝗪𝐡𝐚𝐭’𝐬 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐟𝐚𝐯𝐨𝐮𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐞 𝐦𝐞𝐦𝐨𝐫𝐲 𝐟𝐫𝐨𝐦 𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐢𝐧𝐠?
We asked her dad and he went through so many memories, but for Michelle it was “all the trips and places around Australia I got to see and race at. Yes the wins, titles and trophies are great but nothing beats the late nights in the garage tinkering away, the bond it created and the stories we now share.”
