🔥 The Burpee Challenge started today -but it’s not too late to donate! 🔥

Together, our teams have already raised an incredible $4391 - that’s 4,391 burpees to complete! 😅💪

Our amazing cancer rehab group has already made a start (2189 burpees down!) This video captures some of their burpees, and the strength, determination and supportive community behind them. 🩷💙

For people recovering from cancer, movement is about so much more than exercise. It can help rebuild strength, confidence and trust in their bodies.

Every dollar raised helps more people access expert cancer rehabilitation, and every $1 donated adds another burpee to our total!

Watch the video, cheer everyone on and help us push that number even higher:

When someone is diagnosed with cancer, treatment is only one part of their journey.

Cancer and its treatment can also bring fatigue, weakness, pain, loss of confidence and uncertainty about how to begin moving safely again.

Now imagine having a specially trained cancer rehabilitation physiotherapist beside you—helping you take that first step, rebuild your strength and begin trusting your body again.

That’s what your donation can help provide.

Every $1 donated means:
❤️ More support for people affected by cancer
💪 Better access to specialised cancer rehabilitation
😅 One more burpee for your chosen team!

There’s still time to donate, support your favourite team and add to their burpee total.

Burpees are hard. Cancer rehab is harder.

What happens to strength, balance, stamina and reflexes as you age – and what you can do about it 01/10/2026

💪 Did you know leg strength can drop three times faster than muscle mass as we age?

Even if muscle size stays the same, force and power quietly decrease over time—affecting balance, stamina, and overall mobility.

The good news? While some physiological changes are a natural part of aging, strength, balance, and fall risk are well within your control. Muscle tissue remains incredibly responsive into your 70s, 80s, and beyond, and targeted resistance training makes all the difference in keeping you moving independently.

Check out this excellent read on what actually changes in the body as we age—and the simple, evidence-based steps you can take to stay strong and steady:

What happens to strength, balance, stamina and reflexes as you age – and what you can do about it Some age-related decline is locked in. Strength, balance and fall risk are not - and the evidence shows what works.

Pilates, Prosecco & a lovely bunch from Timpany Walton!
Tonight they joined us at ourpilates as part of their Wellness Week for a little reformer, a little mat Pilates and some bubbles and grazing along the way.
Thanks for spending part of your Wellness Week with us — we loved having you in the studio!

Today we're celebrating our incredible Cancer Rehab Class team. ❤️

They understand better than most that strength isn't just about what your body can do. It can also be found in showing up, adapting, accepting support and continuing to move forward.

Their participation in this challenge is powerful - and we would love our community to get behind them.

Picture the message your donation sends: we see you, we support you, and we're beside you.

Every $1 raised adds one burpee and helps support cancer rehabilitation through the Cancer Rehab Foundation.

Which physio made your rehab hard? 😅

Was it the one responsible for that painful massage, the never-ending exercises—or who persuaded you to become a pincushion for physiotherapy acupuncture? 📍😂

Now you can return the favour!

Donate to Team Physio and challenge the physio responsible. Every $1 raised means another burpee for our physio team.

It’s light-hearted payback for a brilliant cause—helping people affected by cancer access specialised rehabilitation through the Cancer Rehab Foundation and PINC & STEEL.

Tag the physio you’d most like to see doing burpees! 👇

What is the PINC & STEEL Targeted Class?

The PINC & STEEL Targeted Class is a small, physio-led exercise class for people living with or recovering from cancer.

The class combines cardiovascular exercise with strength and mobility work. Exercises are tailored to your abilities, treatment stage and individual goals.

You’ll exercise in a supportive small-group environment, with guidance from a cancer rehabilitation physiotherapist to help you move safely and progress at a pace that feels right for you.

Alongside rebuilding fitness, strength and confidence, you’ll become part of a wonderful community of people who understand what it’s like to travel a similar path.

Whether you’re currently undergoing treatment or finding your way forward afterwards, the PINC & STEEL Targeted Class could be a great fit for you.

Please contact the myphysio team to learn more.

Our first Mat 100 Club member at the new Highfield Mall studio! 💚

A huge congratulation to Tamara on reaching 100 mat sessions since we opened our new space.

One hundred classes takes consistency, dedication and making time for exercise even when life gets busy. Tamara, we love seeing you in class, and it was so nice to celebrate this one with you and your classmates. Well done!
