POST MARATHON: DAYS 3–7 πŸƒβ€β™€οΈβœ¨

We’re continuing our post-marathon series!

At 3 days to a week post-marathon, you may start to feel like training again. If you’re feeling comfortable, this could be a good time to gently reintroduce some low-impact cross-training πŸš΄β€β™€οΈπŸŠβ€β™‚οΈ

Remember, there’s no rush! Ease back in gradually and only try activities if your body feels ready. If you’re still feeling fatigued or sore, give yourself time to rest, and focus on those mobility stretches in our last post.

πŸ’§ Fuel your recovery! Even though you may not be training at the same volume as you were pre-marathon, it’s still important to eat enough, stay hydrated and give your body the nutrients it needs to repair and recover.

πŸ‘€ Keep an eye out for our next post as we continue to guide you through your post-marathon recovery journey!

From struggling with stairs to a 19k walk around Derwent Water πŸ₯Ύβœ¨

We love hearing stories like this! A returning client came back to see Gemma at our David Lloyd clinic, this time for their right hip. After just four sessions, they've gone from needing a walking pole on longer walks to completing the full Derwent Water loop, getting back in the gym and heading back to the driving range β›³πŸ’ͺ

A huge well done to our client for all their hard work, and to Gemma for working her magic once again! Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience πŸ™

If hip pain is holding you back from the things you love, our team are here to help you get moving again.

STRONG HIPS = BETTER SUPPORT THROUGH THE WHOLE BODY

Your hip muscles help support the pelvis, lower back, knee and groin, while also helping with balance, running, jumping and change of direction.

Long periods of sitting at school, work or a desk can mean the hips are doing less, then suddenly have to cope with sport, gym or running.

If strength and control don’t match the demands placed on them, you may notice:

* Hip or groin pain
* Lower-back discomfort
* Knee pain
* Reduced balance or control
* Recurring training niggles

Building stronger, more controlled hips can help your body tolerate more and move better.

Think: stronger, more resilient β€œbulletproof” hips. πŸ’ͺ

If you or your child are experiencing hip pain or recurring niggles, book with Sophie at Physio Action for an individual assessment and treatment plan.
