XCel Performance

✨ Client Highlight ✨

Time to shine the lights on this man:

Everybody, this Sam. (Hi Sam)

Sam came to me in January 2024, with severe shoulder pain and reduced range of movement due to a torn rotator cuff.

The first time we met during our initial appointment he said: “Can you just do something to get rid of the pain and give me a bit of movement back so I can surf?”

I said: ok, let’s do this.

Fast forward nearly 2years, not only is he back to surfing everyday, but when the pain and range of movement improved, we switched the goal to getting him ready to tackle some mountain peaks in France for his holiday this year.

Hard to describe the emotions when he sent me this picture (the first one), with his bike above his head…

This is what I work for, this why I go to work and try to push clients to re-define their limits.

Sam is now a long term client, that we keep on working together to stay fit, strong and healthy.
If you have been training around us, uoypu probably have heard a lot of swearing…

Thank you Sam for your trust and dedication to training and rehab 🙏🏻

🛑 Never Stop Playing 🛑

I have stopped counting the amount of times I hear daily/weekly in my clinic:
« I am too old for this now »
« Oh you will understand when you are my age »
« I am@not supposed to do that at my age »
« I used to be able to do that when I was younger, not anymore though »

Aging is a normal biological process that everybody will go though, the way you go through is entirely up to you.

Does that mean that you are going to set your 10km PB when you are 60yo?

Maybe not 🤷🏻‍♂️

Are you going to be able to PB your 170kg Deadlift?

Maybe not 🤷🏻‍♂️

Are you going to hit tennis ball like you use to do when you were 22yo?

Maybe not 🤷🏻‍♂️

But all this doesn’t mean that you shouldn’t do it, and keep practicing, and have fun.

Life is a big playground, never stop playing.

Body Preparedness: Why It’s Essential

Body preparedness is the foundation of any effective fitness routine, injury prevention, and overall well-being. It’s about ensuring your body is physically and mentally ready to handle the demands you place on it, whether that’s lifting weights, running a race, or simply going about your daily activities. Here’s why body preparedness is crucial and how you can build it into your routine.

🔸 It helps prevent the risk of injury:

One of the primary reasons for body preparedness is injury prevention. Properly preparing your muscles, joints, and connective tissues before engaging in physical activity helps to reduce the risk of strains, sprains, and overuse injuries.

🔸 It Establishes Consistency:

When your body is properly prepared for physical activity, it becomes easier to maintain a regular workout routine. Feeling confident in your ability to handle your workouts without unnecessary strain or injury increases consistency and helps you build a long-term fitness habit.

🎉 End Of Year Greetings 🎉

I want to start to express my deepest gratitude and appreciation to all my clients, without your trust and support my business wouldn’t be much, so THANK YOU 🙏🏻

2024 has been and interesting yet tough year on all front, but I have my eyes locked in on 2025 to bring myself and my business to other levels.
