The Role of the ACL The ACL is a key stabiliser of the knee. Its main roles are to: Control knee rotation and forward/backward movement Provide stability during pivoting, cutting, and jumping Give confidence when changing direction at speed When the ACL is torn, many people report instability—often described as the knee “giving way” - and a loss of confidence in fast or unpredictable movements. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6237c262e730c679aaa800db/0a962f66-3fd2-4094-b83c-0d8cc0690880/IMG_9350.jpg Blog - Do All ACL Injuries Require Surgery? - So, Do You Need Surgery? The decision depends on several factors: Your age Your activity goals (elite sport vs recreational fitness) The current function of your knee Your response to early rehabilitation At ADAPT Nundah, our goal is to provide you with all the information, so that you can make the best decision possible. We provide clarity, not pressure. For some, surgery may be the best path; for others, structured rehab can be equally effective. https://www.adaptnundah.com/blog/running monthly 0.5 2025-08-21 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6237c262e730c679aaa800db/1212b884-312a-4e39-adda-93cb3cd7061c/Untitled+design+%288%29.png Blog - Running Injuries? When to Change Your Running Gait – Advice from ADAPT Nundah | Strength & Conditioning, Physiotherapy & Exercise Physiology The Three Main Running Styles Most runners fall into one of these three categories, based on which part of the foot hits the ground first: Heel striker – The heel hits the ground first. Mid-foot striker – The whole foot lands at the same time. Forefoot (toe) striker – The ball of the foot hits the ground first. Each style has pros and cons, but heel striking is by far the most common. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6237c262e730c679aaa800db/18237a41-6fe1-454a-a7a7-afff6ecb5a58/Untitled+design+%2810%29.png Blog - Running Injuries? When to Change Your Running Gait – Advice from ADAPT Nundah | Strength & Conditioning, Physiotherapy & Exercise Physiology - Simple Cues to Improve Your Running Technique If you often experience shin, knee, heel or hamstring pain, here are some practical tips that we often use with runners: 1. Take More Steps: By slightly increasing your step rate (cadence), each step becomes shorter and quicker. This prevents overstriding and helps you land with your foot closer to your body. It also softens the landing impact. 2. Lift Your Knees Slightly Higher: Bringing your knees up a little encourages your feet to land underneath you. This improves your overall rhythm and reduces the tendency to reach out too far with your foot. 3. Think “Light and Quick” – Slap the Ground: This cue encourages a mid-foot landing and reduces the time your foot spends on the ground. Shorter contact time equals less braking force. https://www.adaptnundah.com/blog/overtraining monthly 0.5 2025-07-04 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6237c262e730c679aaa800db/a48db668-44b6-4860-ae33-33058b69eace/Untitled+design+%287%29.png Blog - IS YOUR YOUNG ATHLETE OVERTRAINING? a guide on THE WHY, HOW AND WHAT TO DO Overtraining occurs following a sustained period in which a person’s body is pushed beyond its ability to properly recover. This leads to a range of issues, including decreased performance, illness, exhaustion, loss of appetite, poor concentration and sleep, and an increased risk of injury. These injuries can range from a muscle strain, to tendonitis, right through to stress fractures that effectively wipe out a year of sport (shout out to Ivy for her rehab) https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6237c262e730c679aaa800db/311b3172-6c87-4ee8-a42b-230acccbbf81/Untitled+design+%286%29.png Blog - IS YOUR YOUNG ATHLETE OVERTRAINING? a guide on THE WHY, HOW AND WHAT TO DO - What to do when in the red? Using the example on the right, weeks 1-3 incorporated preseason training, before then including match fixtures. As you can see, the added duration and intensity shoots this athlete into overtraining territory, meaning we have to be diligent in monitoring for signs of overtraining for the coming month, as the risk of injury now skyrockets. If they kick their feet up, while yes it’s needed, we’re now encouraging a yo-yo between high and low TRIMP scores that’s going to be really hard to get some consistency out of. So instead, let's have a week with modified training. What this looks like will be up to you, your child, and probably a coach or two, but personally I find that something unstructured or shortening sessions usually helps. https://www.adaptnundah.com/blog/blood-sugar monthly 0.5 2025-08-21 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6237c262e730c679aaa800db/57bdaf44-6578-465a-9d63-061a3ba4e9bc/ADAPT+-+Blog+1+Banner+image.png Blog - How Your Body Uses Energy: A Simple Guide to Blood Sugar and Metabolism At the core of metabolism is cellular respiration, the process where cells extract energy from glucose (a type of sugar). This happens in tiny structures inside your cells called mitochondria—often referred to as the "powerhouses" of the cell. Through a combination of chemical reactions, glucose is broken down with the help of oxygen to produce adenosine triphosphate (ATP), the main energy carrier in the body. For people with type 2 diabetes, the way their body handles glucose is disrupted. This means cells don’t always get the energy they need efficiently, while excess sugar lingers in the blood. Over time, this can cause serious health problems. Understanding how your body produces and uses energy can help you make choices that improve your blood sugar levels, increase your energy, and protect your long-term health. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6237c262e730c679aaa800db/1743138526992-OHJNCQPYLGI1XBOV9PXS/unsplash-image-J4HwEwZtIs8.jpg Blog - How Your Body Uses Energy: A Simple Guide to Blood Sugar and Metabolism - Step 3: Insulin – The Key to Unlocking Energy Insulin acts like a key, unlocking cells so that glucose can enter and be used for energy. When insulin binds to a cell, it triggers the activation of glucose transporters, which pull glucose from the blood into the cell. For people without diabetes, this process happens efficiently. After a meal, insulin quickly directs glucose into muscle, liver, and fat cells, ensuring stable blood sugar levels. However, in insulin resistance, the cells do not respond well to insulin, meaning they do not absorb glucose as effectively. As a result, the pancreas produces even more insulin to compensate, but over time, it struggles to keep up. This leads to two major problems: Chronically high blood sugar levels, which increase the risk of complications like heart disease, nerve damage, and kidney disease. Excess insulin production, which encourages fat storage and can lead to weight gain—particularly around the abdomen. This is why managing insulin sensitivity through exercise, diet, and weight management is key to controlling type 2 diabetes and preventing complications. https://www.adaptnundah.com/home daily 0.75 2025-05-08 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6237c262e730c679aaa800db/b305df06-63d8-4774-a3a3-ae2ac4a7d3bc/3.png Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6237c262e730c679aaa800db/be017b7f-e1f4-41c5-83cf-b20ee2a99573/4.png Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6237c262e730c679aaa800db/abecc2e5-3a9a-4da3-aa67-348562366c8a/5.png Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6237c262e730c679aaa800db/30c32535-d71c-4265-96bc-93bc46946aa1/6.png Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6237c262e730c679aaa800db/4b3539bb-dd56-49af-b2f5-6e880c7ef330/7.png Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6237c262e730c679aaa800db/cef514a9-0e57-42df-9ef2-02207e9652e8/Website+Headshots+%281%29.jpg Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6237c262e730c679aaa800db/f5fb4353-7516-4de5-aa32-a45a02054322/2.jpg Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6237c262e730c679aaa800db/b68a1fab-b441-4280-a2b7-582e49992174/1.jpg Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6237c262e730c679aaa800db/838f036c-e7a3-4fac-9edc-99c911deb3ce/ADAPT+-+JANUARY+IMAGES-132.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6237c262e730c679aaa800db/23182a9e-83c5-48dc-a957-c0039b961c2b/ADAPT+April+Shoot-7.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6237c262e730c679aaa800db/99580341-d3b9-4620-b615-074e454dcc7a/Adapt+Nundah-Performance+and+rehab.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6237c262e730c679aaa800db/6b082d8f-43b7-40d9-a977-b24a2e3c4d75/ADAPT+VALD+Shoot-30.jpg https://www.adaptnundah.com/why-adapt daily 0.75 2025-04-09 https://www.adaptnundah.com/contact-us daily 0.75 2024-09-23 https://www.adaptnundah.com/cpr-first-aid daily 0.75 2025-12-08 https://www.adaptnundah.com/group-training-department daily 0.75 2026-01-05 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6237c262e730c679aaa800db/d7b308f4-b155-4b87-af9a-6bdc7c9f7ca1/Group+Training+Timetable.png Group Training Department - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.adaptnundah.com/performance-rehab-department daily 0.75 2025-06-11 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6237c262e730c679aaa800db/58afd567-96dd-47b5-b5d2-6fea6ec47ec3/4.png https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6237c262e730c679aaa800db/ec3e497e-6acd-4cf3-91e0-1d8cc5377e4e/5.png https://www.adaptnundah.com/free daily 0.75 2025-03-13 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6237c262e730c679aaa800db/e5a5cec2-e320-4e64-9f28-900a85a9820e/ADAPT+eBook+cover.png https://www.adaptnundah.com/home-1 daily 1.0 2025-06-11 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6237c262e730c679aaa800db/838f036c-e7a3-4fac-9edc-99c911deb3ce/ADAPT+-+JANUARY+IMAGES-132.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6237c262e730c679aaa800db/23182a9e-83c5-48dc-a957-c0039b961c2b/ADAPT+April+Shoot-7.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6237c262e730c679aaa800db/3da81523-8d8b-472b-81c7-8a0214bac356/Adapt-Nundah-Allied-Health-department-4.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6237c262e730c679aaa800db/99580341-d3b9-4620-b615-074e454dcc7a/Adapt+Nundah-Performance+and+rehab.jpg https://www.adaptnundah.com/home-1-1 daily 0.75 2026-02-03 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6237c262e730c679aaa800db/b68a1fab-b441-4280-a2b7-582e49992174/1.jpg The ADAPT Team https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6237c262e730c679aaa800db/b305df06-63d8-4774-a3a3-ae2ac4a7d3bc/3.png The ADAPT Team https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6237c262e730c679aaa800db/be017b7f-e1f4-41c5-83cf-b20ee2a99573/4.png The ADAPT Team https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6237c262e730c679aaa800db/abecc2e5-3a9a-4da3-aa67-348562366c8a/5.png The ADAPT Team https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6237c262e730c679aaa800db/30c32535-d71c-4265-96bc-93bc46946aa1/6.png The ADAPT Team https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6237c262e730c679aaa800db/4b3539bb-dd56-49af-b2f5-6e880c7ef330/7.png The ADAPT Team https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6237c262e730c679aaa800db/9146f691-7e97-4455-9313-6bccf2a5f084/2.jpg The ADAPT Team https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6237c262e730c679aaa800db/982ab358-dcb2-4d10-acb7-e13abd088a18/4.jpg The ADAPT Team https://www.adaptnundah.com/performance-rehab-department-1 daily 0.75 2025-06-10 https://www.adaptnundah.com/junior-athlete-programs daily 0.75 2026-03-24 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6237c262e730c679aaa800db/50324c13-b0a6-4969-b93a-e560417f76a1/1.png https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6237c262e730c679aaa800db/c0cb7b71-a8c1-4a9d-b211-0863e89b93b6/SCHOOL+HOLIDAY+PROGRAMS.png https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6237c262e730c679aaa800db/0387a726-1a09-45e2-befe-affc706743d5/3.png
