Our subconscious mind impacts our appetite control, weight loss and healthy eating. We can use this to our advantage and trick our minds into eating less, feeling fuller and satisfied quicker. Here are a few easy tricks you can use to teach your brain to eat less without feeling deprived or even realizing it.

High Mileage Running – Muscle and Tendon Health.

Posted on 17/02/2018 by sbrsport

I love running. I have been running, at the time of writing this, for 37 years. It’s my main daily fix. I am a nicer person if I have had a run, which is why I generally run 7 days a week. The good news, according to a recent study is that this will have had a positive effect on the state of my muscles and tendons.

So, these are some of the known benefits of running:

  • It burns calories, lots of them. More, in fact, than any other form of mainstream exercise. That means that you can eat more, and this is good news if you like to eat.
  • It reduces the risk of chronic heart disease. I have been told dozens of times by well-meaning people that they heard of a runner/cyclist/swimmer who died of a heart attack. So, yes, be responsible. Get your yearly medical done, go for an ECG and get some professional medical advice. At the same time, as I put on my stoic cap, realize that we are all going to die. So, you might as well live your life to the max before the inevitable.
  • You will have stronger lungs.
  • You will reduce your risk of type 2 diabetes. (Diet will obviously play a big role in this too).
  • Running is good for your bones. The impact, that you won’t get from cycling or swimming, will keep your bones way stronger than those of a non-runner.

Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy as an Anti Aging Mechanism.

Posted on 23/01/2018 by sbrsport

In 1998 a Scottish physician reported that hyperbaric treatment could help prevent permanent damage to spinal cord injuries. Hyperbaric treatment had previously been used to help divers recover from decompression sickness. Now suddenly, medical science realized that getting super-oxygenated blood to injured nerves can help restore the nerves. Before long, people started to ask if there were other uses for hyperbaric oxygen therapy.

It is the Victims that Cry out, not the Criminals – a Look at Injuries.

Posted on 27/10/2017 by sbrsport

Ida Rolf, one of the most well known manual therapists wrote the following about tracking the cause of pain, ‘Where you think it is, it ain’t’.

Physiotherapist Diane Lee puts it this way, “It is the victims that cry out, not the criminals”. Both these thoughts express perfectly how injuries work. Therapists need to go to the site of the pain because it hurts. However, you need to look up and down from there, and at times across, to find the real cause. If you can’t find the cause you can’t effectively treat an injury.
