WORK OPPORTUNITY Looking for an enthusiastic exercise specialist to run our online classes for @JApproach - our multidisciplinary programme for the management of knee OA. Ideally experience with: - online classes - working with knee OA patients (or older adults) & UK Based Is that you? DM me for details 👍 Thanks for sharing 🙏

Looking forward to presenting at the @OrthoInstitute Keele/Oswestry annual cartilage symposium this week. Thinking through the opportunities we have for joint health preservation as we age, become injured etc ... In addition to @JApproach for OA management in later life, we have the @OPTIKNEE initiative for post ACL injury from the brilliant @jwhittak_physio et al. We have so many more opportunities to do the simple things well

Oh God, no 🤦 We’ve known about these predictions for a while, but cripes … why don’t we just start the negative trajectory for everyone?!

So interesting "...older adults who talked with peers about their exercise program were able to increase and sustain physical activity levels much better than those who focused on self-motivation and setting fitness goals" The group effect was so powerful & important in the @JApproach programme for ~30% of participants medscape.com/viewarticle/thi… @serenapsychol @mike_brownlow

I’m often asked how I “…get older people to lift weights for their OA” or “get people to exercise who haven’t before” Start HERE! podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcas… Fantastic Behaviour Change pod series from the brilliant @serenapsychol & @sallygarozzo that take you through step by step & with fun chats along the way music.amazon.co.uk/podcasts/… #behaviourchange #postivepsychology
