December 21, 2022 026 - Does Every MSK Injury Need Rehab Exercises?
In this episode Talysha & Jackson answer a P3 Community question - "Does every musculoskeletal injury need rehabilitation exercises?"
The simple answer, no.
But we obviously want to shed some light on the nuance of where exercise therapies fit into managing musculoskeletal pathologies.
Sharing some case examples, questions to ask (both your client and yourself) and tips to help develop your critical thinking skills, this episode will definitely help you avoid falling into the illusion of action and move towards prescribing exercises with purpose.

December 07, 2022 025 - Finding Your Ultimate Work-Life Balance
In this extended episode Talysha answers a P3 Community question - "What's the ultimate new grad's work-life balance".
This episode isn't just for new graduates, it's for anyone who is looking for work or who may not be as happy in their workplace as they thought they would be.
Getting somewhat philosophical, Talysha gives an insightful rundown into the fundamental needs we have as employees that contribute to our feelings of work satisfaction and ultimately influence how engaged we are in the workplace.
Then we explore how we can use this information to find out what our ideal work-life balance is and how you can screen your prospective employers to get a better understanding if you're compatible with that organisation (before you're committed to a job that may not be for you!)

November 14, 2022 024 - The Impact of Immobilisation on Ageing Skeletal Muscle
When we think of physical rehabilitation, we often think of a younger athlete wanting to get back to their sport.
However, it is often overlooked and arguably more important for clinicians to pay attention to the functional capacity of our older clients after periods of illness, injury &/or immobilisation.
In this episode Talysha shares some insights regarding the impact ageing has on our skeletal muscle and how this can be further amplified due to periods of immobilisation &/or inactivity.
Timestamps
03:00 The Capacity Gap - why we can neglect to consider the functional restoration of our older clients.
04:55 Senescence - what is it and how does it impact our functional capacity as we age.
09:45 What happens to our skeletal muscle as we age?
11:30 What happens to skeletal muscle as a result of age AND immobilisation?
16:15 Older vs Younger individuals - does disuse & immobilisation affect these groups differently?
22:20 What positive changes can we observe in skeletal muscle as a result of exercise & movement?
24:45 What can we do in the clinic to help our older clients live & age well?
