WHAT IF YOUR REHAB FELT MORE LIKE TRAINING? 👀
Rehab doesn’t always need to be a collection of isolated corrective exercises.
Imagine an assessment shows:
➡️ A hip shift to the right
➡️ Reduced strength/control through the right hip
➡️ Restriction through the right lat/shoulder
➡️ Reduced trunk and sling control
Rather than treating each area completely separately, we can start integrating them back into movement.
One way we can do this is by borrowing from PHA (Peripheral Heart Action) training and building a rehab tri-set:
1️⃣ LOWER BODY
Lateral/single-leg hip strength
→ Build frontal-plane hip strength and pelvic control.
2️⃣ UPPER BODY
Shoulder/scapular strength
→ Restore upper-body control while the lower body recovers.
3️⃣ CORE
Loaded side-plank / lateral core work
→ Build trunk strength and improve force transfer between the upper and lower body.
LOWER → UPPER → CORE → REPEAT 🔁
The assessment determines what we need to train.
PHA simply gives us an interesting way of organising the rehab.
It allows us to build strength, work capacity and movement quality without turning rehab into 45 minutes of isolated corrective exercises.
Because eventually…
Rehab should start looking like training. 💪

People often ask me what keeps me motivated after nearly 20 years in this industry.
The answer has changed over the years.
When I first started, I was driven by learning as much as I possibly could. Every course, every mentor and every opportunity to improve was something I wanted to be part of.
As the years have gone on, I’ve realised it isn’t just the knowledge that keeps me going.
It’s the people.
The conversations in the clinic.
The athletes chasing performance.
The clients who simply want to get out of pain.
The coaches I’ve met.
The friends I’ve made.
The opportunities to teach, mentor and continue learning myself.
I’ve also been incredibly fortunate to work alongside some of the very best in sport. From professional boxers and Formula racing drivers to elite performers across a range of sports, those experiences have pushed me to continually raise my own standards. Not because they’re elite, but because working in those environments reinforces just how important the fundamentals are. Assess well, coach well, communicate well and never stop learning.
I’ve also realised that no two days are ever the same.
One day I’m helping someone prepare for elite competition.
The next I’m getting a parent back to lifting their child without pain.
The day after, I’m teaching coaches or mentoring therapists.
That’s what I love most.
Every person has a different goal, but they all trust me to help them move better, perform better and enjoy life more.
Looking back through these photos reminds me how fortunate I’ve been—not because of the places I’ve travelled or the athletes I’ve worked with, but because of the people I’ve met along the way and the relationships this profession has given me.
If there’s one thing I’ve learnt, it’s this:
Find something that challenges you, excites you and makes you want to keep learning.

Hip flexors always feel tight? Here’s why stretching isn’t enough…
One of the most common complaints I hear is:
“My hip flexors are always tight.”
In reality, they often aren’t just tight—they’re weak, overloaded or lacking control.
If you only stretch them, you might get temporary relief, but unless you improve their strength and capacity, the tightness usually comes back.
These are three of my go-to progressions:
1️⃣ Mountain Climber Hip Flexion Isometric
Builds tolerance and teaches the hip flexors to stabilise the pelvis.
2️⃣ Hip Flexor Plank with Shoulder Taps
Challenges hip flexor endurance while integrating core stability and anti-rotation control.
3️⃣ Eccentric Single-Leg Hip Flexor Sit-Up
Develops strength through the lengthening phase, helping the hip flexors absorb force and cope with higher-demand activities like running, kicking and sprinting.
These exercises aren’t suitable for everyone and should always be prescribed based on your assessment and stage of rehabilitation.
Combined with the right mobility work, they’re a far more effective long-term solution than stretching alone.
Don’t just create movement… own it.
Assess. Treat. Strengthen. Perform.
