FALSE NARRATIVES in the rehab space (the last one might be the best IMO) It’s crazy that we still have to bring this things to light, but social media is loaded with a lot of nonsense. Therefore, I give you these things to enlighten your prospective on movement and decrease inhibitions (fear). Move with confidence……NOT fear. Your body is more resilient than you think.

One of the worst feelings in the world is having a body that can’t do what you want. I learned this the hard way. I had to go through an ACL rehabilitation and a nasty shoulder injury to see this. Not to mention that when I was 26 I felt stiffer than most 60+ year olds. What's worse is that I relied on the typical fitness route to change it. Tedious rehab protocols. Hours of visits to the physio. All with no tangible and lasting results. It’s an endless cycle of misery. But when I started to change one principle I was able to change that.

They say a handshake can tell you a lot about a person. It turns out, it might even predict how long they'll live. Research shows that grip strength is a powerful indicator of overall health, especially as we age. A firm handshake isn't just about confidence; it could be a sign of a strong body and mind. An umbrella review study (PMID 32565244) found a direct link between grip strength and healthspan. Stronger hands often correlate with a lower fall risk, improved cognitive function, and greater independence. So, next time you shake someone's hand, appreciate the grip. It might be a silent testament to their health. And remember, it's never too late to strengthen your own. Strength training can help tremendously. Now the question - Is strength training safe for older people? what if they get injured? More on this in my next post tomorrow! #eldercare #healthyaging #healthcare #omfit

I post my personal “archive” of magazine clips on here because in many cases, what I wrote even 10 years ago is still at least somewhat relevant today—these are true examples of “evergreen” content. But of course, there are also many things that change (and sometimes change back!) in health and fitness over years and decades. One example of this is treating injuries with heat and/or ice. I wrote about this topic for my latest piece for Runner’s World and quickly realized that this seemingly straightforward assignment was anything but! Although it was all the more rewarding and—I hope!—informative in the end. I spoke to four experts for this piece and found that even among the pros, advice varies. There could be a few reasons for this: First is a lack of quality studies in this space. You can check out the article for more possible explanations for all the whiplash and confusion, as well as what to know about the acronym that’s replaced RICE—PEACE & LOVE. (Nice, right?) Did you know heat vs ice for injuries was such a fraught topic? Do you use either one (injured or not)? FYI, we're mostly talking about treating acute injuries with ice packs and/or heating pads, though the story touches on ice baths and saunas tangentially. https://lnkd.in/gdC3nstt

Strengthen Your Core, Strengthen Your Life: The Key to Balance and Injury Prevention A strong core is the foundation of effective movement, whether you’re lifting weights, playing sports, or simply going through daily activities. Beyond aesthetics, core strength plays a vital role in balance, stability, and injury prevention. Here’s why focusing on core development can benefit you both in and out of the gym: Enhanced Balance and Stability: A strong core stabilizes your torso during dynamic movements, improving your balance and coordination during workouts and daily life. Stronger Lifts: Core strength increases spinal stability, intra-abdominal pressure, and pelvic control, leading to improved performance in exercises like squats, deadlifts, and presses. Injury Prevention: Lower back injuries are often caused by poor core strength and improper posture. Strengthening your core reduces the risk of injury both during training and in everyday activities. Prioritizing core development is key to achieving long-term health and fitness. It not only boosts performance but also helps protect against common injuries. #CoreStrength #FunctionalTraining #InjuryPrevention #StrengthAndConditioning #FitnessForLife #HealthAndWellness #ProfessionalPerformance #StrongerTogether #LinkedInFitness #BalancedLiving
