New York Update

Congratulations go out to Becca Couper who recently completed her first Marathon in New York. Becca had been struggling with a calf problem when she came to us and started running on the Alter G during her last few weeks of training. Having done a few long runs on the machine (with a DVD of Mad Men for company) she progressed to split sessions (running 8 miles outside then another 10 miles on the Alter G) and this dedication paid off with a fine run in 'The Big Apple'. We look forward to working with her as she targets her next challenge.

New Home

While building work is carried out the Alter G is out of action.

From October the Gtrainer will be housed in a training facility and will be much more accessible with a new pricing policy

Ironman Training

With the London Marathon 2009 out of the way (so to speak) the ideal user for the AlterG treadmill is now either someone preparing for the Great North run, a spring marathon (New York perhaps) or those endurance junkies preparing for the Hawaii Ironman in October.

The same rules apply for all three types of event really:

The AlterG allows you to complete more mileage with less joint soft tissue stress when used in conjunction with running 'on land'

The AlterG allows you to perform tempo training at higher prolonged speeds than you could otherwise achieve by running 'on land'

The AlterG allows you to recover from hard weeks but still allows you to run.


If any of this needs addressing in your regime then drop us an email premier_gtrainer@yahoo.co.uk for more info or a free trial.

Gail Emms Latest to Defy Gravity

Badminton Star Gail Emms dropped into Premier Physiotherapy Centre earlier today to utilise the Alter G, anti gravity treadmill, for a recovery run during her taper phase in preparation for this weekends Flora London Marathon.

Under the watchful eye of fitness coach Russell Holman she performed her run at her projected marathon pace, she is aiming for a 3 hours 50 minute finish, at just 85% of her body weight. This allowed her to run at race pace whilst reducing the overall stress to the system thus allowing her pre-run recovery to continue.

How did she enjoy her experience? Well see for yourself this Saturday during BBC breakfast as Mike Bushell was there to record it ! Mike couldn't resist trying out the machine for himself and thoroughly enjoyed the experience, apart from attempting to run at Paula Radcliffe's marathon pace (even at just 80% body weight!). BBC breakfast airs between 6.00am and 9.30am Saturday 25th April 2009.

Latest News From The Alter G

Dean Ashton recently returned from a training stint in Portugal accompanied by John Green Director of Premier Physiotherapy Centre. where he trained on the sand. On his return we went back to running on the AlterG, at Premier Physio near Romford, to unload and recover. He seems to be progressing very well and the plan is to be outside for full loading next week.

The AlterG has been busy, as well as Dean we also had another footballer travel to us to use it in a bid to be fit for his teams run in, marathon runner have been supplementing their training on it and we also have had one of our physiotherapy clients who had suffered from a traumatic head injury on the Gtrainer for some gait re-education work which has been fantastic to see his progress, the treadmill allows us to work at speeds and for durations that we just couldn't achieve on a standard treadmill.
