Whenever we need to move, our body needs to balance. This can be made harder if your ankles are unstable.

A Personal Best and 5 minutes shaved off Robin Hood Half-Marathon

“The day of the Robin Hood half-marathon went better than I imagined! I felt strong, stuck to the plan, and didn’t stop running once! In past years I would have had a walking break after 8/9 miles, but this time I just kept going and going and got myself a PB! Shaving 5 mins off my previous best. All the hard work with Gemma certainly paid off and I can’t thank her enough for her continued support in helping me achieve my goal!” – Kishan Rabheru.

Shoulder pain can be a really big problem and very frustrating when it comes to exercise.

You might not realise it, but like many injuries when they happen you suddenly notice how much you use that area.

Do you ever suffer from lower back pain?

Your sacroiliac joint is a joint where your ilium and sacrum meet at the top of you pelvis and lower spine.

When dysfunction happens it is usually coupled with an element of pain in the lower back and hips.

You’d think by the time we get to our 30’s and 40’s that we’d have this old exercise thing down. We’d have figured out what to do at the gym and know the kinds of sports we enjoy.

I know life can be hectic, and finding time to fit in simple exercises can be hard. 

In business you probably already know how important it is to take a day out and work on strategy every quarter - working ON your business rather than IN it. It helps you get to your goals much faster and with a clearer route.

Makes sense, right?

So, here’s an interesting question.

As as all know, life is set to challenge us. Last week was no exception for me, so I've set a more realistic fitness challenge for you all this week. 

The plank challenge. 

Summer is my favourite season; I don’t know about you. But I’m embracing the winter, after the last year – the hats, woolly jumpers, and of course my birthday. But I’m not looking forward to the cold - the rain - and the dark mornings.

Have you been as engrossed in the Olympics as me this week?

I love watching them; it’s a great chance to see so many sports that aren’t normally in the spotlight. My favourites so far have been the BMX, Skateboarding and of course Tom Daley Diving. I can’t believe Beth Shriever had to crowdfund her own journey to the Olympics and all that hard work and determination paid off when she won Gold.
