There is a sweet spot when it comes to exercise, and this one is worth a screenshot. The right amount of load, think challenging but manageable, signals your body to build stronger muscles, tendons and bones.

Too much too soon tips over into overload, where tissues do not get the chance to adapt and niggles start to creep in. The difference often comes down to how quickly you progress, not how hard you go.

Save this as your gentle reminder that more is not always better. Which side of the line do you tend to land on? Let us know in the comments.

Plot twist: recovery is not the opposite of training. It is part of it.

When you exercise, you create tiny amounts of stress in your muscles. The good stuff happens afterwards, during rest, when your body repairs and adapts so you come back a little stronger. Skip the recovery and you are all stress and no reward.

Rest days, decent sleep and easy movement are not lazy. They are where progress is built. So, are you someone who guards their rest days, or the type who needs a gentle nudge to take one? Tag a mate who could use the reminder.

Here is a word worth knowing: tendon.

It comes from the Latin tendere, meaning to stretch, and that is exactly what these tough, rope-like tissues do. Tendons connect muscle to bone and transfer every ounce of force when you walk, lift or sprint.

Your Achilles tendon, the largest in your body, can handle loads several times your body weight with each running stride. Impressive, but tendons are also a little stubborn. They adapt and heal slowly because they have a modest blood supply, which is why good rehab is a marathon, not a sprint.

Give tendons steady, progressive load and time, and for many people they respond beautifully. Save this one for the next time someone tells you to just push through tendon pain.

Take your running to the next level — with practical advice you can actually use.
Forget sitting through another webinar and hoping you remember the important bits.

Join us face-to-face at St Leonards Physiotherapy for an engaging, practical Running Workshop led by our experienced physiotherapists Chris Andreano and Jack Jeyaston.

This is your opportunity to learn, move, ask questions and see your running in action — with practical strategies you can take straight into your training.

📅 Saturday 17th October
⏰ 9:00am – 11:00am
📍 St Leonards Physiotherapy

WHAT WILL YOU EXPERIENCE?
💪 Running-specific exercises
Learn practical exercises designed to help improve your strength, control and running performance.

🏃♂️ Running gait assessment on the treadmill
Get an opportunity to have your running gait assessed on the treadmill and learn more about how you move when you run.

📈 Training load & progression
Understand how to build your running and manage training load more effectively.

🩺 Running injury education
Learn about common running injuries, why they can occur and what you can do when niggles start to appear.

💬 Ask the experts
Have your running questions answered directly by experienced physiotherapists in an interactive face-to-face environment.

THIS ISN'T JUST ANOTHER WEBINAR.
You'll be learning by doing.

Rather than simply watching a presentation, you'll have the opportunity to move, practise exercises, see your running on the treadmill, ask questions and interact directly with experienced physiotherapists.

You'll leave with new knowledge, practical exercises and a better understanding of your own running — things you can take straight into your training.

Whether you're a new runner, regular recreational runner, returning from injury, or simply want to get more from your running — there's something here for you.

STRICTLY LIMITED PLACES
We are deliberately keeping numbers strictly limited so the workshop can remain practical, interactive and personalised.

Once places are filled, registrations will close.

The truth about stretching, minus the myths. Stretching feels good and has its place, but it is not a magic warm-up, an injury shield, or a cure-all for every ache.

What tends to help more is moving through your full range, building strength, and easing into activity. Think of stretching as one tool in the box, not the whole box.

Which stretching myth surprised you most? Tell us in the comments.

A little movement now tends to save a lot later. It does not need to be a grand plan, just something regular you can keep up.
