Kick your goals with an Exercise Physiologist

How many times have you set a health goal as your new years resolution? How many times have you ticked off that new years goal?

Chances are that many of these new goals do not go to plan, but you are not alone. Why is it that they fail? Are these new goals achievable? What is the plan on accomplishing this goal?

Many people often have great intentions but do not understand how to set up a goal properly or understand how to get to the goal. Having goals around exercise and improving your health can be tricky, it is common to feel uncertain about how realistic a goal is and how achievable it is. This is where we step in.

We understand how the body responds and adapts to exercise and how long changes take to occur. We also understand how to set achievable goals and we do this by setting SMART goals. SMART goals are:

Specific – What we are measuring is specific to your goal.

Measurable – We can accurately test and retest to note any changes.

Achievable – The goal is something you can accomplish.

Relevant – How relevant is this to achieving you overall goal.

Time-bound – How long will this goal take to achieve.

Setting your goals with an Exercise Physiologist keeps you accountable.

We work with you to formulate a strategy that works with you. We understand the evidence and best practice around exercise and can help shape that around your life and schedule. This ensures we stay accountable, motivated and prevent burnout whilst continually ticking off milestones!

  • City2Surf: The Inside Running

    With a lot of my clients currently preparing for the City2Surf I thought it would be pertinent to pass on some of my advice as a former distance runner turned sprinter on some of the do’s and don’ts of the world’s most popular fun run.

    I first competed in the City2Surf when I was 16. I was fortunate to enough to be sponsored by the Department of Sport and Recreation and it was quite the adventure travelling to Sydney for the first time by plane from Gunnedah.

    That year I made a lot of mistakes but still managed a great time of 51mins 15secs especially when I enjoyed the luxury of a preferred start position. The race record is 40mins 3secs set by Steve Moneghetti in 1991 (see picture above). Since then I have run the race a further 5-6 times with all times under 60mins. I think running under 60mins from the back of the pack is harder than 51min from the preferred start line! It’s not easy running on the gutter for 14km to avoid the crowds and prams. That said, if you know a few tricks you can save yourself a lot of time and energy. Here is my breakdown of how to run a strong City2Surf time:
