I actually wanted to vote for more than one of these, on the basis that it could be a number of structures depending on if the punch was a swing and a miss, or if it landed on a solid body of mass. A swing and a miss could affect the joint capsule and also posterior muscle groups, similarly a heavy contact and depending on the end position of the strike could also affect the join / other structures. My vote is based on described area of pain and Agg, but would investigate further.

So let’s break down your method of thinking @Rulan Albarouki … so that everyone can follow along. We think it is likely due to mechanics because - no trauma to create an injury out of nowhere - And we’ve decided there’s no sport / unusual loading So.. this has been gradual in onset, over time, with no noteable changes to daily routine or lifestyle.. therefor it is likely to be a mechanical issue, and the issue could be coming from the foot upward, or the hips and glutes downwards; or both. So guys… what do we want to check next?

@Rulan Albarouki it’s a great idea. My company offers an incentive to Personal trainers. Occasionally we will offer a FREE, yes, a free session to PTs but with some strings attached: two or three social media stories if they liked the session. And then if they refer clients we offer incentives for them in the way of more sessions 😉

Firstly, congratulations @Chris Hughes , great job going out on your own, and even better for utilising your current network to grow business initially! It’s a great thing to do. Great idea with your soccer club too. Incentives wise, I always try not to give away revenue as a “kick back” or a “commission”, have a think of something else you can offer, and keep all that money for yourself. Building a relationship with the soccer team is great, especially if they know you already. Something that has worked well for some of my businesses is creating a small pop up a few times a year at game days or events, offering a 5-10min treatment and collecting data (emails etc). Then you offer 1) value to the club and improve their events & 2) you can target new customers with email marketing strategies. Let me know your thoughts…
