Fitness and Training

With many Australians preparing for the summer holidays just around the corner, many will forget about nutrition in favour of less than healthy diet choices.

Once again summer is upon us, and for many that signals an increase in physical activity. Whether it is working on that beach body, getting out in the sunshine or using that tennis racquet you got for Christmas, getting active or changing your fitness routine is fantastic for all aspects of your health, both physical and mental.

Fact: For every extra kilogram you carry, you add seven kilograms of pressure to your knees when you jog! Can you imagine the stress this is placing on your knee joints?

Resistance bands (also known as mobility bands) may just about be the simplest and cheapest solution to create your complete home gym.

Your feet have a direct impact on the rest of your body. When a small problem develops in your feet, it can lead to more serious issues later on. Gaitscan can identify poor foot function which can then be corrected with custom orthotics.
