Our next #physiotalk tweetchat will be on Monday 25th April at 8pm BST.
The topic will focus on strength training in physiotherapy – a hot topic at the moment with the recent launch of the CSP ‘Stronger my way’ campaign.
However, we will not be discussing the campaign specifically – more the general principles of strengthening and resistance training with and for our patients. We know we SHOULD advise this – after all it is a central part of the CMO physical activity guidelines. But do we? Or if we do, is it only with certain populations? Join in on Monday 25th to discuss what you do, why and how you support your client group to be come stronger.
Chat questions

Have you had specific training to prescribe strength based exercises? And – is it needed?
