Happy to share that my second PhD study has been published and is available here: authors.elsevier.com/a/1j%7E…
🏉High occurrence of breast pain and injury among female rugby players worldwide.
🏉Low awareness of potential long-term health impacts and reluctance to report issues.
Honoured to be featured in @rachel_fairbank's latest piece for @NatGeoScience, where we discussed the #health impacts of working long hours - especially the dangers of prolonged sitting.

A privilege to speak with @sharondingle for the @irishexaminer on the benefits of Yoga to replace occupational sitting with with light-intensity physical activity and the potential health benefits. @PAfH_UL @HRI_UL @PessLimerick, @DrBPCarson, @mph8, @CKLangley95, @CatherineBWoods
Workplace aches and pains — how movement and stretching can help irishexaminer.com/lifestyle/…
It is important to consider how we can replace occupational sitting time with physical activity of any intensity in line with the @WHO physical activity recommendations as we demonstrated that individuals working from home, sit for 77% of their work hours.

Importantly, regular movement to break prolonged sitting is also important with benefits to health observed with short bouts of intermittent standing and light-walking compared to prolonged sitting.

How has previous research taken a participatory research/co-design approach? What are the benefits regarding physical activity and sedentary behaviour in workplace health promotion studies?

In the latest MetCast, hear from @CKLangley95 about the best diets to prevent falls and fractures in later life, and Professor Hans Degans about his research with masters athletes. 🎧👇
It’s never too late to start exercising! 💪🏋️♀️
If you start training later in life you can add 15 quality-of-life years, @McrInstSport research shows.
