34. How much do I need to engage my core? with Antony Lo


Listen Later

In this episode, I sit down with physiotherapist, Antony Lo to discuss:

  • Common myths about the core:
    • “ I have a weak core”
    • “You need to actively engage your core all the time”
    • “Suck in your tummy”
    • “Maintain a neutral spine”
    • “Doming/coning = danger”
    • “Your TA isn’t firing”
    • “You need to master exercises on your back before progressing”
  • How we as health care and fitness professionals should continue to question our knowledge base and adapt the messaging we are providing our clients to stay current
  • Difference between what we think we know and what is true

Antony Lo is a physiotherapist from Australia and runs The Physio Detective service and My PT Education. He earned his degree from the University of Sydney and has been in practice since 1997 (old enough to see old things come back as new things!). He completed his post- graduate Master in Manual Therapy (Musculoskeletal Physiotherapy) from the University of Western Australia and commenced his Specialisation training in Musculoskeletal Physiotherapy. He has been involved in ante-natal and post-natal education and management for his whole career. Through participation and through his work as a Physiotherapist at all levels of sport, coaching and education, he has developed a model of treatment that utilises the best from Sports Science, Musculoskeletal/Sports Physiotherapy, Pain Science, and Women’s Health research to provide a practical, realistic holistic model of care balancing the biopsychosocial model of healthcare with the best of historical assessment and management approaches. He is privileged to teach health and fitness professionals around the world in person and online in addition to his clinical work. Antony has a wife and 3 beautiful children in the best city in the world Sydney, Australia!
