Basic core and glute strengthening Physio pilates exercise

Basic core and glute strengthening Physio pilates exercise. Lie with your feet on a ball. Put downward pressure onto the ball and push the ball away from you. Then bring back in. Engage the core and glutes to use the hip flexors less. Make sure ribs are down, back is in neutral and toes relaxed. Its a slow journey to regaining full fitness after an injury. Patience is key. With thanks to Tessa @theliftingphysio @bh_beyondhealth

Physio pilates rehab

Physio pilates rehab. Basic core and glute strengthening exercise. Alternate leg lifts, transferring weight from leg to leg engaging glutes whilst pulling down on a taut band. This helps engage the core. With thanks to @bh_beyondhealth

Poolside Lobster pasta (wheatfree)

Poolside Lobster pasta (wheatfree). Would be rude not to! Lobster with gluten free, wheat free buckwheat and sweet potato pasta, smashed avocado with chillies, wilted spinach and olive oil. Yummy and healthy.

Waking up the glutes

Waking up the glutes. When in rehab after a knee ligaments injury and little or no exercise for weeks- it's best to get the basic core strength muscles activated before launching back into the same advanced levels of exercise as before. Repetitions increase daily. The instructions are in the video voice-over together with my actions. With thanks to Tessa @bh_beyondhealth
