Injury Prevention by VIS Physiotherapist Warrick Pearson

Here is a great article by Warrick Pearson our Sailing Team VIS physiotherapist. He talks about current research, adolescent transition, being careful with winter preparation in the gym & monitoring your training loads. Warrick expresses the importance of an individualised physiotherapy screen to give you guidance to avoid injury. Warrick is the owner of MyPhysio at GESAC in Bentleigh East which is the same practice I work out of. Together we wish to help sailors spend more time on the water injury free! "General rule of thumb that comes out of all the injury prevention literature is not to progress training loads more than 10% per week" - Warrick Pearson, 2015 CLICK HERE BELOW FOR LINK YV Winter 2015 column       http://www.myphysiogroup.com My Physio GESAC 200 East Boundary Road Bentleigh East VIC 3165 Freecall: 1800 My Physio (1800...

Krystal Coaching Session #1 complete

Awesome first session at the new 'Krystal coaching' clinic Sandringham Yacht Club in the Laser 4.7. Perfect wind conditions & the girls were doing brilliantly as most of them had never sailed lasers before! The girls for the first 6 weeks are Tilly, Jess, Emma, Grace, Rachel, Zoe, Kate & Noa. These girls come from lots of different sailing background & bring with them some great knowledge into the Laser. Open Bic, Minow, Opti, 420 & International Cadet as well as the Laser 4.7. We covered rigging, tacking 101, & downwind boat control on Tuesday night & we even had a few races at the end. Next week we are learning how to stop the boat, hold it at a mark & then accelerate the boat. Well done girls..cant wait for...
