The Sports Therapy Association Podcast is recorded LIVE every Tuesday at 8pm (UK) on the Sports Therapy Association YouTube channel and Facebook Page, and then uploaded as a podcast. You do not have to be an STA member to attend the live recordings - it is a chance to network with fellow therapists and discuss topics that together help us all move forward as an industry. The goal of the podcast, hosted by Matt Phillips (creator of runchatlive.com), is to deliver to Soft Tissue Therapists of all levels (including massage therapists, sports therapists, physiotherapists, podiatrists, chiropractors, etc.) up to date information on how to be a modern, successful, effective health care practitioner, with a gold star reputation for being able to help people in pain and/or looking for performance gains. The Sports Therapy Association (STA) is a professional representation for Sports Therapists, Sports Injury Therapists and Soft Tissue Therapists. We have worked passionately to develop a truly independent and ethical association that is committed to raising standards across the industry and progressing opportunities for our valued members.

STA55 'Over 60s Resistance Training' with guest Chris Tiley

Tuesday Jun 22, 2021

Many of us are aware of the multiple benefits of strength training, but how confident are we using it with older patients/clients? How skilled are we in adapting strength training around disability and injury?

In Ep.55 of the Sports Therapy Association Podcast our special guest is Chris Tiley, creator of nevertoooldtolift.com. Chris has worked in hospitals in both the UK and Canada, in rehabilitation units and with Sports teams including British Parasnowsport.

Chris' passion for helping people achieve what they consider impossible is immense, and his website has rapidly become a hugely popular source of valuable insight and information. In this episode, Chris uncovers many of the misconceptions out there regarding resistance training for the over 60's, the barriers that both patients & clinicians have, and how we can improve our knowledge to ensure they use resistance training as a way to reduce risk of injury and improve daily quality of life.

Chris' ebook 'Never Too Old To Lift' (available on his website), is a 62 page wealth of information, explaining in detail the process of creating, adapting and progressing strength training programs for the over 60s. It includes:

How to stay motivated by identifying goals to use to build the training program around.
Choosing exercise variations that directly benefit activities already done on a daily basis.
How to make exercises currently found difficult more manageable.
Learning to document workouts to enable monitoring of progress with ease.
