Is it low back pain or sciatica?

Between 10 and 40% of people will experience sciatic pain in their lifetime. It’s often confused with other types of low back pain but sciatica is usually felt in the lumbar spine, it’s commonly one-sided and can feel like a deep burning pain in the buttocks, radiating down the leg. On this episode, Gab and Sarah talk about what sciatica is, some of the things that might cause it, and how exercise can help.

Did you know exercise can improve fatigue?

It seems like an oxymoron but regular exercise can actually reduce fatigue. Wild, right? Exerting energy when you're exhausted can help you feel better.

Have you ever had a migraine?

There's nothing quite like a migraine. That splitting, blinding, burning brain pain that comes with a side of nausea, dizziness and sensitivity to light. If you've copped a belter or two over the years, we have some good news. There’s some really solid research which suggests that exercise could be one effective tool to reduce migraines. On this episode, Gab and Sarah look at what happens during a migraine and how exercise might be one way to help deal with them.

How drinking alcohol affects exercise

How much alcohol do you drink? Are you a ‘couple of glasses of wine a night’ kinda gal? Or strictly a ‘weekend’ drinker? When your doctor asks you how many standard drinks you have in a week, do you downgrade that number just a little bit? It turns out drinking alcohol may be negatively affecting your exercise. On this episode, Gab and Sarah look at how booze can affect the quality of your workouts.
