Busy few weeks.

Ran a half. If you didn’t know

Became a master steak chef

Discharged some patients.

Restored someone’s extension post ACLR

& chilled out my a poorly 4 year old.

Sunday’s day out

Advice for next time: train for it

What an event ASICS Manchester Half 👏

Great to see so many past and current patients out on the course, plenty of old faces, and a lot of people absolutely smashing it.

Manchester always delivers

Same time next year… with a few more miles in the legs beforehand.

Probably the most boring advice I give every athlete… but one of the most important. 😂

WARM UP.

Going from 0 → 100 isn’t preparation.

A good warm-up helps:
🔥 Increase muscle temperature
🧠 Prepare the nervous system
⚡ Prepare for speed, force & power
🦵 Gradually expose tissues to load
📉 And structured warm-ups can help reduce injury risk

It doesn’t need to take 30 minutes.

It just needs to prepare you for what you’re about to do.

Prepare → expose → perform.

The hills I’ll die on as a Sports Injury Specialist. 🏔️

Some might be unpopular. Some you might completely disagree with.

But after working with hundreds of injuries, these are principles I come back to time and time again.

Pain-free doesn’t always mean fixed.
Avoidance isn’t recovery.
You can’t ice bath your way out of poor load management.
And rehab without structure is just exercise.

Good rehab isn’t about doing more — it’s about knowing what to do, why you’re doing it, and when you’re ready to progress.

Agree? Disagree? 👀
Which hill are you arguing with me about? 👇

“What’s your favourite to work with?”

I know they probably meant ACLs, backs, knees, Achilles…

But genuinely, it’s the people.

The ones who get frustrated but keep showing up.
The ones who have setbacks but start again.
The ones who keep working even when the pain has gone.

Everyone sees the medal, the PB and the finish line.

I get to see the work that went into getting there.

That’s my favourite part of the job. ❤️

I can’t do the work for you. But I can make sure the work you’re doing is the right work.

If you’re ready to put the work in, DM me “READY” and let’s get you back.

Sometimes rehab isn’t just about getting back to the gym.

It isn’t about hitting a PB, running a marathon or getting back on the pitch.

Sometimes, it’s simply about being able to do this.

Last week, I injured my back and couldn’t take Little Man to the park. Honestly, that hurt more than missing a run.

I post a lot about being athletic, getting stronger, running faster and performing better.

But really, isn’t this what we’re all training for?

To play football.
To run around.
To get down on the floor.
To keep up with them.

Because an injury doesn’t just affect you. It can take away the things you love doing with the people you love.

So maybe ask yourself:

What are you actually getting better for?

For me, this is it. ❤️

DM me ‘HELP’ and let’s get you back playing around 👊🏻

Might be late to the party… but atleast I arrived 👊🏻

Game changer. Trust me I’m a professional

Need I say more? 💪

Oof might come after me for this one.

USE WHEN APPROPRIATE NOT AS FIRST PROTOCOL

You’re probably injured because you’re weak. Save some cash. Strength train

Just run.
Stop trying to run ‘perfect’
Again probably injured because you’re not strong enough…. Not Because you run like a duck 🦆

No rehab = no return.
You can cheat it. Just do it.
You can start straight away

Rome wasn’t build in a day. Adaptations take time.
(I still can’t bench 100kg)

High functioning = high risk

Have realistic expectations, you’re probably going to have pain at some point
