Great paper by Bettariga et al on periodisation & how we might use this concept to best design exercise strategies alongside cancer treatments 👌🏼 Strength & Conditioning principles are helpful for all types of populations, not just athletes link.springer.com/content/pdf/...
Hot off the press! EDITION 2 of the HHD Comparison Tool is now available👇🏼 Interested in dynamometry & assessing strength? Get your copy 💥Unbiased side-by-side comparisons of 12 HHDs 💥Plus updates to the specifications of previously listed tools getbacktosport.com
RFD vs Strength I thought it was time to revisit this topic after yesterday’s publication. 👉🏼What these performance qualities are 👉🏼How they differ 👉🏼How to think about focussing rehab/training getbacktosport.com/strength-and...
This is disappointing 🤨 RFD / RTD is not muscle strength. They are separate qualities of muscle performance 1/
Had an absolute blast of a day with these awesome physios filming hip strength testing using #dynamometry, exploring what’s possible, repeatable & can be standardised in clinic just using a plinth. Some tension & compression dynamometer options. All videos feature in my course
anyone have a recommendation for a back physio in west london? @claireminshull.bsky.social @running-physio.bsky.social @jackachew.bsky.social @olliecoburn.bsky.social 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Efficacy vs. effectiveness … do you know the difference? Great BJSM Pod with Prof Daniel Lieberman & Chris Macdonald discussing the topic (& their recent review) with ref to exercise & Type II diabetes 👌🏼 podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/b...

In-Person teaching calendar for 2025 is now full Looking forward to another year of travel, meeting brilliant practitioners, and hopefully a bit more balance 😂 Stay strong 💪🏻
Bone on bone … 😱 Not any more for some surgeons following an excellent Keynote by Serena Simmons @serenapsychologist.bsky.social at the Munich ICRS CartilageRepair conference YES 👊🏻
I’m often asked which dynamometer to buy & about testing in rehab. 1st response -what data do you want to obtain? 2nd- why do you want it? Do you want to use data in decision making, or as a motivational aid? Answer this THEN we can consider which tool 👍🏻
A muscle’s contractile history influences its subsequent performance. Doesn’t always have to be negative. We can use potentiating mechanisms in clinical practice to overcome inhibition, or augment RFD & Power-based rehab👍🏻
Fab first day teaching S&C to a brilliant group of physios today at Plymouth hospital Day 1 - strength 💪🏻

These types of statements, in published papers really really annoy me 😡 Reader led to believe that break tests are associated with ⬆️ risks of injuries & these papers evidence it They don’t ! ‘Throw away’ statements like this can have a profound impact. Authors & reviewers please do better
Fantastic, this 👍🏻
I teamed up with foot & ankle specialist @lizbayleyphysio.bsky.social to created 4 exercise programmes for Plantar Heel Pain. 3 are based on Osborne et al. (2023) where 18 experts devised exercises for PHP. The ‘LiTHE’ programme is our own creation which fits more closely with S&C principles…

Here another Physio Kinvent Pull dynamometer. What’s the sampling frequency? 1️⃣ 40 Hz 2️⃣ 125 Hz 3️⃣ 1000 Hz
Question for you… What’s the sampling frequency of the Lafayette HHD - used in many research papers ? Sampling frequency = number of data points obtained obtained per second 1️⃣ 40Hz 2️⃣ 125 Hz 3️⃣ 1000Hz (See if you can avoid looking it up 😉)
With so many dynamometers on the market to choose from, which do you pick? 🤔 getbacktosport.com/how-to-use-d...
