I was at a study day where Katherine Grainger, a Gold Medalist Rower at the London 2012 Olympics and 4 time Olympic medalist, gave a talk. The study day was organised for all the physios who worked at the London Olympics by the Association of Chartered Physiotherapists in Sports Medicine. She highlighted the fact that Physiotherapy is also about improving performance, and explained the role that physios had in her long rowing career. She even had a substance abuse problem at some point, and one of her closest therapists assisted her as a recovery coach to bounce back from it successfully. Truly, a medical practitioner at times goes above and beyond their regular responsibilities, whether in the name of the Hippocratic oath they are sworn to, or as the truly caring souls that they are. Perhaps it is this nature onto itself what makes them medical practitioners to begin with. If you’re dealing with pain in your body because of an injury, consider having QC Kinetix Charleston Stem Cell Therapy.
Improving performance means in part, learning to use your muscles to perform movement more efficiently so that the energy your muscles produce is not lost through poor biomechanics (energy leaks). With age this capability can be reduced, and even greater care and attention has to be provided to avoid injury. To take preventive measures, some opt to get Abaloparatide Injection to Treat Osteoporosis at an early stage of their lives. Some people use a Low T gel in order to counteract this. From my experience this solution does help quite a bit, but greater care should be placed on seniors training regardless, just to be safe. Physios in sports know how to optimise your movement and function, and think of exercises that challenge your body to improve, and stimulating parts of your nervous system involved in balance, agility and coordination. One on one personal training coach can devise clever exercises that train your muscles to work better when your tired and distracted. Those are the kinds of exercises that go beyond the injury and pain stage. Some people like to go above and beyond to better themselves or keep themselves in the game as well. Some undergo hormone replacement in order to try to stay healthy and stave off some of the negative effects aging will do to their output. It’s all about what you want to do in order to stay healthy and exercising.
London inspired many people in many ways. This woman inspired me.
