Why Gym Start?

PhysioTec Blog Feature Images-12

Welcome to the first blog post of our strength and conditioning series. Physiotec has recently recruited physiotherapists with specific experience in strength and conditioning. We recognise the need to give people access to strength training, especially coming back from injury. However, uninjured people will also benefit from the service.

In our clinic, we see more and more people who are engaging in gym based training and this ranges from young adolescents to elderly people.  The goals for strength training for the individual may be different but the fundamentals are the same: good form and appropriate loading. It is our goal to provide this service for our clients to enjoy strength training in a safe and effective manner.

We aim to update our blog regularly and provide some easy to digest content on all things strength training. In the meantime, keep up to date with our clinic via social media:

If you took a generalised opinion across random people in the gym and asked them what is a squat and what is a deadlift, you will get vastly different definitions from each…

Whole-Body Strength Training – For Cyclists

By Eric Huang | 13 July 2021

As a cyclist, you’re constantly joking about only needing “legs and lungs”. The goal of a cyclist is to be as light as possible, with the highest amount of power to weight ratio coming from the legs, pushing into the pedals. That is why there are plenty of memes out there of cyclists with stick…
