In today's episode, we consider the question of how many repetitions (lifts per exercise) and sets (repeats of exercise) we should be doing as part of strength training. Do reps and sets vary depending on what we are trying to achieve, for rehab, reducing risk of injury or as a way of improving performance?
The evidence (as if so...2018-10-2130 minRunchatlive PodcastWhy Do Runners Stretch?#Ep6: Many runners devote a lot of time to stretching themselves, or going to a therapist to 'get' stretched. In this episode I look at WHY this is the case and HOW MUCH evidence there is for the assumed benefits.
This episode came about in response to some interesting questions put to me following last week's broadcast, and also to feedback I got from a presentation I gave at British Triathletes South East Division yesterday.

In this episode of Runchatlive we take a look.
Every week in clinic I see runners who have been struggling for weeks, months and maybe sometimes years with an ongoing pain/injury. In many of these cases, the runner is shocked to hear that the solution may well be stop doing that stretch every morning.

This week we answer a question from Jack Chew of The Physio Matters Podcast (who actually returns in Episode 22 as a guest!): "To what extent we should try and tweak the running form of a pain free runner?"
A terrific question; in other words, if there's nothing broken should we try to fix it? Given that studies are yet to agree on what causes most running related injuries, blaming running technique for injury is a very grey area. F...2018-09-1621 minRunchatlive PodcastIt's Your Anatomy: Why runners should not be obsessed with symmetry#Ep.2: In our second episode of Runchatlive, we take a look at the importance of Health Care Professionals monitoring the language they use when communicating with people in pain.
It was sparked by a person who visited me last week with a letter from an orthopaedic consultant which as an explanation for the patient as to why they were in pain used the sentence "It's your anatomy". What's the problem with that I hear you ask. Well, watch the video and I will...2018-09-0917 minRunchatlive PodcastMy Experience Running With Kenyans#Ep.1: Welcome to where it all started... the very first episode of RunChatLive, recorded just before a Sunday clinic shift without any planning, using nothing else except a phone...
