    Feels like a Rogan podcast- some good takeaways as you’re having long conversations with players or coaches, but definitely not fact checked so some things are just wrong or biased. Overall tho, I’m really enjoying these. Especially the Michigan ones as I’m learning more about our local clubs. Hope he reaches out to more and more local clubs sporting directors, coaches and players. Keep em coming!

  • Fantastic question!

    I’ve always loved soccer, but ended up down the basketball route. I coach high school and haven’t had the opportunity to have some of the discussions but certainly have the same questions often asked here. Jason, you do a great job of asking the things I have often wondered from recruiters to the different ways kids learn and grow in a sport. Fantastic job!

Q: What inspired you to start Primal Recovery PT and focus on ACL rehab?
