"Movement isn’t optional. It's not a bonus—it’s biology. And our biology was shaped by evolutionary pressures: For millennia, we walked and ran long distances to hunt, gather, build, and connect. Our bodies were engineered for endurance. At the same time, we evolved to rest when

Very excited to read the generous review in the QWeekend (Courier Mail) by Mike Madigan of my recent book ,’In search of manhood’, available online at Amazon and other platforms.⁦Scott Willis⁩ ⁦Australian Physiotherapy Association⁩ ⁦Dimity Dornan AO⁩ ⁦Sports Medicine Australia⁩ ⁦Bill Vicenzino⁩

We put too much pressure on ourselves to wait for the “right” moment. The perfect plan. The perfect schedule. The perfect mindset. But—readiness is a myth. Mostly. Most of the time, you won’t feel ready. You’ll feel tired. Uncertain. A little unmotivated. That’s not a flaw in

Detask Services LLC Peter Dornan AM Your book is visually striking! Would love a follow and a tag so I can explore more of your work.

Gender equality leads to more stable relationships. Heterosexual scripts of romance are becoming more egalitarian, and that’s good for both women and men. Women with greater agency and equality in relationships enjoy higher relationship satisfaction and better communication. 1/3

Frailty Creeps, It Doesn’t Crash No one thinks they're going to be frail... and most don't have to. Frailty doesn’t arrive overnight. It creeps. Quietly. Patiently. Unnoticed. We normalize the small losses. We tell ourselves it’s just a natural part of aging. We accept things we

I’ve been a surgeon for 25 years… Wisdom isn’t loud. It’s quieter, steadier. You image less. Operate less. Listen more. You stop chasing every shadow on a scan. Stop chasing recognition. Stop proving something with every case. And you finally come home to be the

In your 20s, setbacks are speed bumps. In your 50s and beyond, they can feel like cliffs. An injury in midlife doesn’t just slow you down; it can derail your routine, drain your confidence, and take months to bounce back from. I've been there... far too often. Not because

I’ve Been a Surgeon for 25 Years…and I’ve watched something quietly shift in how people view their bodies. There’s more fear around movement. More hesitation to run, lift, or push. Everyday aches are too quickly blamed on “getting old.” Assumptions take hold… this must be age;

Everywhere you look, people are talking about “biological age.” They test telomeres, methylation patterns, mitochondrial markers — and promise to tell you how “old” your body really is. This drives me nuts.. LOL. The framing is wrong. The control group isn’t the average

Human animals have an expiration date. But how we age within that boundary is remarkably malleable. The modern world has changed faster than evolution could keep up with. With it came the mismatch diseases and "modern conveniences" that stole our muscles, our abilities, and

A lot of noise about frozen shoulder and it's lifestyle contributors lately and that's totally fair but let's not forget that genetics are also a significant risk factor. jbjs.org/reader.php?rsu…

Twenty years ago, if one of my kids had asked me what I did for a living, I would have said I fixed people. It would have been true in the literal sense. I was in the operating room constantly, repairing what was torn, worn, or broken. That was the identity. That was the job. And

The Older You Get, the More Expensive Your Mistakes Become As we age, the body still adapts beautifully to hard training—but it all too easily punishes poor load management. One extra session, one impatient jump in volume, and you’re sidelined for weeks, or more. I’ve changed my
